Madden 08 Wii just had this same problem.

Warhawk was probably very difficult to predict for stores, like FishyJoe said, due to the download option. It's probably selling good but I get the feeling not many were shipped.

How many copy's do games usually get shipped?

it matters how big the game is. Halo 3 im thinking will have like 25 - 30 each store split between each edition.

Halo 3 will get much bigger orders than 25-30, more likely 150-200. I know MP3 was getting 30-90 depending on how big the store you went to was. Possibly even more in some of the big cities but 90 is the most I know of at one store.

I don't think I will be going outside on Halo 3 release day, I'll just stay home so I am not killed by a maniac driver on his way to or from getting Halo 3.

I think big games get alot more than that. When Halo 2 launched, my EB had a line that was at least 150 strong (I was 107), and that wasn't even all the people that preordered it. I bet Halo 3 will have alot more per store than just 25 to 30.

As for Warhawk, they were sold out at my local Best Buy when I checked, so it seems to be selling strong. I don't think that retailers expected this kind of demand for alot reasons (sold on PSN, online multi-player only), but it seems that this might be the game the "it" game for the PS3 until the big boys arrive.

Ok then maybe 25 legendary editions each store? thats that one with the helmet right?
