major differences between everyones predictions and my predictions:
i would just like to say that the 2 wii games other than wii fit are definitely being underestimated, the 2 ps3 games have really high expectations(for sales that is) and the 1 360 game is about right.
people assume that the highest seller so far will sell less than mgs4 which would have to get roughly a 50% attach rate (assuming that brawl sells at least 9 million by the end of the year which isnt that unrealistic assuming it does well in others. and assuming that the ps3 will sell 18 million ps3's by the end of 08, which is a bit realistic.) also people assume that GTA4(ps3) and mgs4 will outsell mario kart wii when it is outselling gta4 weekly and in total, and mgs4 probably wont outsell gta4.
the number 1 of 2008 is still a toss up because i am unsure on how successful wii fit will do in america. if it has long legs, like alot of people assume it will then the title will go to wii fit but i am still a bit iffy so i will say SUPER SMASH BROS BRAWL will gain the title of highest seller in 2008. and you can quote me on that.
the nintendo wii will outsell the ps3 and the 360 combined by the end of 2008.
PS3 will out sell the 360 june 2010.
GOTY of 2008 is super smash brothers brawl.... hopefully.
