And even with these pre-orders, it seems impossible for destiny to break even.

30 million sales (500 million $) is way too much for a new IP

Some insider said last year that a new game that will be coming out soon will need 10 million sales to break even. I think he was talking about Destiny. 

I think 10+ million is doable for Destiny, I think it can maybe reach 15+ million lifetime.

True, but it just shows how huge their budget is for the game. 10 million sales would be like $300-400m in revenue.

10 million is easy for destiny, the game is going to be massive, especially after the beta,.

Which is why it's not a $500 million game.

OT: Destiny continues its trek!

I expect the same thing, never stated otherwise.

Cool, then I don't know why you continued to debate with it. 

OT: A little surprised @ the CoD discrepancy, but I think that will change the closer the launch gets.

Because you thought I was saying something different -__-

If you weren't, you had nothing to debate, yet here you are continuing to pursue it. :P

Ummmm, you're the one who keeps responding to me. Don't respond to me and I won't respond to you hope that doesn't come off as sounding hostile.

It will only be/remain hostile if you continue to miss the humor in it. Remember, we're on the same page, here. :P

Been a minute since I gave anyone a hard time. You just happened to be my first victim [my apologies to the mods for the derailment(s)].

Sorry must have missed the humor. You never gave me a hard time, nothing wrong with wanting clarification of someones comments xD
