I agree sounds to good to be true..I mean the previous record was 1.4 million in a day and I doubt it will surpass that. Even getting 1 million in its first day would be very impresiive. 3 million...I doubt that's gonna happen.

3 million for one country? Let alone the UK? That's insane.

It may break opening records, but it wont break lifetime records.

how can something be the most critical acclaimed and fastes-selling game at least for you?  it will be that for everyone and if not then also not for you

Please explain how a game can be the fastest selling most critically acclaimed only for you.

At first,i was going to say" it's gonna be the most enjoyable fun game of the gen (at least for me)"(doesn't sound right?) but then game industry is now all about how many copy it sold,how high score it got so it turned in to that half-ass stupid comment that even I don't understand when I re-read it

http://www.vgchartz.com/preorders/ 637k in US, wtf?

It can beat CoD if true... MW3 did close to 2.5 million in UK first week if added PC (close to 2 million PS360).

The news talk about first day only lol... the best CoD did 1.4 million in first day.

It looks likely to break the world's biggest launch for gaming but 3 million is off the scale just for the UK, maybe 3 million for Europe but not just UK. But just under 3 months to go now, i can't wait. I want to see some multiplayer though

It would be great if it sold that many, it does really look like R* are doing interesting things with this game

Don't bother with pre-order numbers, the game is still 2 1/2 months away, most people won't bother pre-ordering yet since you might want to look around closer to launch for a better deal

I personally, haven't bothered, but am definitely definitely going to buy it and am already incredibly excited
