AC3 not suprising to me after what BenV said.

Halo 4 should (Hopefully) start doing 4-5K weekly from now on with the information trickling in this month and grow from there, in theory it should be in the top 5 pre-orders until release from now on.

I think it's safe to say that Halo 4 isn't going anywhere from the top 5. The only real competition I see on this chart are Assassin's Creed III and Bioshock Infinite. Borderlands 2 is also a contender but by the time the pre-orders start picking up for it, I think Halo 4 will be too far gone.

I think you summed it up pretty well there, AC3 and Bioshock may initially overtake Halo 4 for a little while (Though nothing except COD has any real chance for most pre-orders of the year on a single platform besides Halo I think), as for Borderlands 2, yeah it's gonna pre-order pretty well, but just too slow to overtake Halo before that has run off I'd say.

As for GTA5, while I agree that it's unfortunate they probably won't show it off when everyone else does, I'm also happy about it, keeps us busy in the otherwise quiet weeks

I think Animal crossing will do well in pre orders. I never played any of them... never was motivated enough to. Luigis mansion is a must. Is the wii animal crossiing good?

The Wii version was decent but in my opinion, it lacked the portability of the DS one. I used to take the DS version with me to work and play it on breaks (or on the clock depending on what manager was working). The Wii version, I was sharing a TV with 2 other people and generally they were trying to play too. So we ran into some extra difficulties.

All of the Animal Crossings have been great. People complain that all the games start to mesh together, they still buy them. It's just too fun and addicting to not buy them. You shouldn't get them though Ryan, you're too busy with all those N64 games!

I wasn't trying to discredit the Wii version as being bad. I just prefer being able to pick it up and play it whenever I want instead of having to wait for television availability or even worse, having to go home. :P

I totally agreed with you Axum. I find the portable versions to be better, as I think AC is a better game for portable consoles. Don't take my comments the wrong way, okay?
