I did'nt see this posted. So,predict the sales of max payne 3. I predict 725,000 for the ps3 in the first week and 2.5 lifttime. 900,00 for the xbox360 in the first week and 3 million lifetime. I'm not sure if it's coming for the pc,but if so --- 325,000 in the first week and 1.2 million lifetime. I suck at guessing these things,but what do you guys think?

I hope it does well.

Max Payne 2 was sadly a flop. Selling around 2.5 million copies.

The first game sold around 4.5 million on PC and PS2 alone. So maybe 5.5 million including Xbox and Mac.

I wouldn't call Max Payne a dead franchise, but a lot of the fans are not impressed with the change in... well everything.

However Rockstar on the front cover alone should secure it at least 2 million on the 360 alone. It has a good chance of selling 4 million wolrd wide.

+4 million on consoles alone.

Max Payne 3 looks good, will get good reviews and is marketed professionally.

4.5 Mil Lifetime Sales 55% 360, 45% PS3
850 k launch week 360
697 k launch week ps3

2.5 million is a flop? Take a zero off the end and then maybe.

Personally, I'm probably the only one that doesn't think this is going to be a monster seller. I remember back when I told people Duke Nukem wasn't going to sell well. And this was WAY before the reviews or anything of the sort. And I remember how people kept saying "F U" and all that about it. Then the game finally hits and we all know how it ends from there.

While Max Payne won't be a technical issue like Duke was, I don't see this game selling all that well either. Better than Duke Nukem did, but still, not that great.

i see about 3M sold for both consoles end of this year and over 4M lifetime

1st week will probably end out around 1.5M for both consoles depending when the game launches WW with vgcs week

Why would you compare Max Payne 3 to Duke Nukem Forever? Duke's main draw was as a curiosity, it was actively bad, a technical mess, an entry in a series that hadn't seen a major release in 12 years and had mediocre premotion.

Max Payne 3 is a Rockstar game and is the biggest release of 2K's release schedule until GTA which who knows when that is comming out, and Rockstar’s “biggest and boldest marketing effort thus far”. If anything it should be compaired with Red Dead Redemption which people wrote off and were saying it would strugle to make back the money spent on it as they needed to sell 4 million copies to break even. Red Dead Redemption ended up selling over 9 million copies so far.

Max Payne will likely do in the neighborhood of 3+ million LTD (possibly 4) each  on PS360 (with 360 slightly ahead), with another ~1 million on PC including digital sales. I mean L.A. Noire which was an odd AAA adventure game managed to do 2.4+ and 2.2+ mill off the Rockstar name, Max Payne will do better than that with it's bigger marketing campaign and stronger brand. 

I say lower than LA Noire but still over 4m LT
