Forums - Sales Discussion - LOTR Conquest Sales

iberz on 04 January 2009

I was just wondering how well everyone here thinks conquest will sell. I mean it has quite a few things going for it. a) Its LOTR and that is enough to get me on board, being a huge fan of the books and films b) It is the spiritual successor to Battlefront which also has a huge fanbase. Wouldn't these factors alone get it a large opening week. I mean its top every pre-order chart I've seen. 

It is however January and that could work against it.

Its my sleeper pick, I think it will breeze past 1 mil. 4 million sales combined.

Battlefront II sold 3.25 million on PS2, 1.86 million on Xbox

Lord of The Rings 3 sold just under 3 million on PS2, 830k on Xbox.

I'm going to predict:

PS3: 2.5 million
X360: 2 million

That's right, I think it'll sell better on PS3.

It is not particularly very good based on the demo.

Third Age?  It was decent.

It has potential. We'll have to see how big the LOTR license still is. Now that the movies are done and out of people's minds, I'm curious to see what kind of success it will have.
