a game like gears of war will always sell the most on its 1st week, after that it wont sell much. i dont know why people are expecting this to reach halo 3 like numbers. it should make it to 5 million easily but not 8 million. it just isnt going to sell another 6 million.

Halo numbers span up to 8 Million. Gears 2 is expected to sell 5-6 Million units. Gears 2 will most likely reach 6 million somewhere near february/march. It might reach 7 M by may so who knows?

If you extrapulate a 5 day sales as Friday to Teusday then subtract Sunday through Monday and add that to the your estimates for Wed-Saturday of week 2, you can CLEARLY see that Gears 2 will sell exactly 501K week 2....
HAHA, jk man.
I'm not sure how much Gears 2 will sell, but I bet it's a bunch!

Can't you see though STAGE that everyone who has ever wanted Gears 2 has already bought it, just as anyone who wanted Gears 2 already had a 360? ...

lol, 500k is a bunch for week 2.
Never over-predict. We've seen how that's worked out for the Sony fans.
I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
I don't need your console war.
NO NO, NO NO NO.

It is odd though that an established series highly anticipated (MGS4) couldnt outsell a new IP (gears 1) with a LARGER install base. |
Gears has everything a casual gamer wants - easy controls, extreme gore, plug and play MP, while MGS4 has everything but what the casual gamer wants - 9 hours of story, complex controls, complicated MP. It is basically casual vs hardcore and we know which kind of games sell more. Then there's also the extremely agressive and expensive publicity Microsoft is known for.
Anyway, my prediction for Gears 2 2nd week is between 500 - 600k.

500k or so
500-600k
