They are afraid of Starcraft's reaction....


You can watch Yahtzee's review about it to still your hunger:

So it went from: Highest Selling RPG this gen (single platform)
To: Highest Selling Console RPG right now (single platform)

Funneh.

See Dodoce's post.

This is ridiculous.  I said consoles only.  That isn't a formula.  It's just like not bothering to compare console attach rates too portable attach rates.

Ignoring the OP and responding only to the thread title

"Fable 2 is going to be the highest selling RPG this gen (single platform)"

Wow, maybe if you ignore
DQIX
DQX
FFXIII - 360
FFXIII - PS3
A crapload of DS games, i can't be bothered listing all of them
Monster Hunter P 2G - PSP
Monster Hunter 3
WoW
Various other things ive no doubt forgotten, maybe some other PC titles

Regardless of what your point is, you chose a silly thread title

Oh come on he probably could have forgiven you, in like 5 years or so.  But would you have survived the onslaught from the 360 fans is the real question.  :P

Fable the best selling RPG this gen?hell no,Final fantasy as usual will be but it looks like guns& and other crap are in FF XIII,if so then it'll probably do bad with true RPG fans like myself

If a new Chrono game for the Wii of 360 comes out it would have a very good chance.

Dragon Quest for the Wii will outsell it even if you only look at Japanese Dragon Quest sales.

Other than portable titles which are justifiably excluded from this thread, you have only listed titles that are yet to be released.

This in no way negates the notion that Fable 2 WILL be the highest selling RPG of this gen, even if only for a while.

Nah. Fallout 3 on 360 should overtake it, Final Fantasy XIII on PS3 WILL overtake it, Mass Effect 2 could overtake it for all we know.

Define "for a while". A month? Six months? Two years?
