There's no telling until it comes out and we get to try it for ourselves.
lol no! I can see 15 or 16 max for MW2. And Modern Warware did not sell 8 million on the PC
Other than the PC numbers, do you truly believe that MW2 will sell through 15 million on DAY ONE???????
This game will sell very good, but if it reaches >10 million it will be like the first and sell consistently over the next few years, not in 1 day.
That seems high.
I doubt they sell that much on PC. Pirating is too easy these days.
| S.T.A.G.E. said: Modern Warfare 2 will not sell 25 million copies. PC owners will torrent the game. The game will sell 10-13 million copies between the PS3 and 360 and PC. My friend who takes games off torrents got Street Fighter IV the other day and said the game is going to sell like shit on PC. I would give PC 1-3 million in sales at the most. |
COD4 was always one of the top 5 sold PC games every month until around a year after it was released, and it still kept charting often after. Even now COD4 still sells great - it is currently the 9th best sold action game on Steam, just below SFIV (which is 10th in Top Sellers) which probably makes COD4 the 11th or 12th best sold game on Steam right now. It is also 9th on Impulse, and it was 10th on D2D's Weekly Top10.
The thing is, COD4 has a HUGE success in Digital Distribution Services, something that both The Sims and World of Warcraft games never had, and right now Digital Distribution is bigger than Retail.

Any proof to back your statement?
| Barozi said: Modern Warfare did maybe half of that on the PC. More than that is not possible. There is evidence from Activision that it didn't sell that well on PC in comparison with the console versions. |
No, there isn't.

Show me the figures!
I just stop reading this thread when I saw :
PC 8m
Is it a joke?
I think maybe I was quick to jump and think the 8 million was real, but it was number 1 for quiet some time worldwide in the PC markets, maybe not 8 million but given that the PC gamer market is still worth something it did really well. Activision even stated that it is:
For fiscal 2008, Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare was the number one PC title in dollars worldwide, according to The NPD Group, Charttrack and Gfk.
Also my prediction of 25-30 million is only possible if it is truly the biggest entertainment launch this generation, which I actually think it might be. I somehow honestly believe it will be the most sucessful 360 in the end (again this is assuming it does what the first one did and more), and the 2nd best ps3 title in the end.
Actually since PC gaming market is no business of mine (I still think it is a safe market), I will minus my number by 8-10 million. So my real prediction is 15-22 million on the consoles gaming front by the very end of this generation.
Shio if you can provide any solid numbers please do, because I do want to know how well the PC market is, and what number 1 for half a year means in that market.

yeah, I always thought COD4 would sell a bit more than 8 millions on PC.
