@atma998, what do you think of the chances of NFS: Shift of reaching 1 million by year end on the PS3? From the initial sale I had written it off completely but it has had very small drop off for the first 4 weeks of sale and is now sitting on 660,000.... With the holiday coming up, a boost is a certainty and with no other racing game on the PS3 similiar to it coming out until next year it should be the 'choice' for any racing fan (the 360 will have Forza which should cut into NFS: Shift sale).

Sure, the game have good legs and the Christmas boost will probably push it over a million before the end of the year. My guess is it will be tight but it will reach it.

Ha! Ironic because I'm actually being pessimistic this time around, even with its recent success I thought it would fall just a bit short. But yea I'm really suprise at its low drop off, and its not worth debating a 2cm line that we're on either side of.

Wow, great numbers all around, PS3 will be getting another million hit with Uncharted 2, and X360 saw one with Halo:ODST. Will be interesting how the holiday season changes this list until New Years.

The Simpons Game (X360) didnt reached 1 million yet. It is now at 991,872 and it sold 842 units last week. Give the game 7-8 weeks again before it reach the million mark.

Hannah Montana : Spotlight World Tour will hit the million next week (currently at 999,640).

As for InFamous, it won't reach the million next week but rather in 3-4 weeks from now (currently at 943,717 and sold 14,679 last week).
