Way to be petty...

ok u acting like these games will never reach a million, ur post is completely pointless because its only a matter of time before they are both platinum

@smoed hostage

well I agree with you there....so no scope for a bet

I disagree. It is unlikely that Wii Music will ever pass 1 million.

My point is completely pointless. That is the point of it. I guess nobody got the joke (or at least the ones who did didn't post).

You do realize he was joking, right?

I remember him posting that he already played the game :)

People are still going to say LBP bombed, which I don't quite get, given it is likely to sell 3m eventually

LBP just got an extra buy from me (although it was free)... >_>

Thanks, made me feel a bit better :)

On topic:

Both those titles are going to do really well. Wii Music is going to be one of the generation's bigger successes, and LBP is going to be relatively good for a Sony first party title.

By the end of the year, Wii Music will easily beat 2M, and probably 2.5M, 3M seems out of reach though. Over the 5 weeks, I guess we could see ~ 1.5M more, so 2.5M seems the most reasonable bet.

LBP should sell around half of that, if not a little more. Should end slightly shy of 2M.

For sales next year, both those titles could see some good sales. I know this is an overused frase, but wait for when the Ps3 stops selling like crap (compared to the others). LBP could keep this for a while. While it seems horrible to be 26th in your 4th week (Others), it is actually the 6th best selling Ps3 game for the week.

Wii Music might be evergreen, and it should definately see 3M, and almost certainly 4M. Lifetime could exceed 5M, but that isn't as certain.

@ oyv: you honestly think that LBP can pull off nearly the same numbers as it has done so far, to get shy of 2 M by the end of the year?
