What?

Mass Effect 1 barely cracked 2 million, and you think the sequel will do 1.5 million more?

Please don't say the userbase is larger. Please...

Mass Effect didn't barely make 2, it went over 2 million. Anyway, after E3 the new Mass Effect will be aired out in a big way to the people, kind of like how people are taking notice to Uncharted. You don't have to take my word for it, but Mass Effect 2 will sell way better than the first, which no one knew about. Mass Effect is a name now.

^ grr i was gonna say the exact same thing... hell it doesnt even look as if gears2 will make 1.5 mil more

In terms of sales, FFXIII will destroy Mass Effect 2 by almost every measure available. In terms of quality, it is quite possible that ME2 will be comfortably superior, though no Sony fan would EVER admit it.

Gears 2 is already at 5 mil and its still selling. Mass Effect isn't Gears 2 so give it some time.

Ain't that the truth?

STAGE - and you think gears 2 will sell 1.5 million more?

   It doesnt take to be a Sony fan to not admit that.

Mass Effect sold 2.06 million. 60 copies over 2 million is barely over 2 million.

Mass Effect 2 will sell better than the original, as will Uncharted 2, but neither of them is going to do it by a massive amount. I predict 3 million for Uncharted 2 and 2.8 million (at most) for Mass Effect 2.

Put it this way.  Mass Effect has an aggregate score of 91, whereas each of the last two main story FF's got a 92.  The one before that got an 85.

Mass Effect had MASSIVE technical issues and STILL got that awesome score.  It is quite possible there will be an upset.
