Could the PS3 version of BO2 overtake Halo 4 before release?

Hmm...I think so.

Oh, and where the hell is PS All Stars?!

11. Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon (3DS) - N/A - 848 - 125,655

17. New Super Mario Bros. 2 (3DS) - 1 - 22,649 - 74,709

^What the hell? I would never have predicted those numbers. I mean, the first Luigi's Mansion was released way back in 2001, and given both series' sales I would have expected NSMB2 to be way ahead.


Can someone explain this?

@ Man_bear_pig - I don't know, maybe casuals don't pre-order as much. Plus we all know it won't sell nearly as much as SSBB, which sold something like 11-12 million on the Wii, but if it gets at least 25% of that market then the IP was worth it.

Gears Of War: Judgment?

39. Ratchet & Clank: Tools of Destruction and Ratchet & Clank: A Crack in Time (PS3) ???????????????????


Its above The Last of Us and Tekken
