Thanks for the tidbits of info guys! I really appreciate the help (changed PES to 2010. Decided not to put down Lego Star Wars. I have no idea when it hit a mil... but I'm gonna assume that it hit it last year like the rest of 'em. If anyone has info on the contrary, lemme know.)

You bet <3



I've done some maths for older games on the PS3 which could possibly still reach a million units sold. (even if it's quite unlikely)

Mortal Kombat vs DC Universe
968,789 sold
31,211 left
~2,200/week --> 14 weeks --> million seller in February 2010

SOCOM: Confrontation

911,001 sold
88,999 left
~4,500/week --> 20 weeks --> million seller in April 2010

Tomb Raider: Underworld

944,883 sold
55,117 left
~2,000/week --> 28 weeks --> million seller in June 2010

MotorStorm: Pacific Rift

788,443 sold
211,557 left
~5,000/week --> 42 weeks --> million seller in September 2010

[according to VGChartz data]

These calculations are of course completely based on the assumption that these games will continue selling as much as the have during the last few weeks. What do you think?

By the way, thanks for this great thread! :)



Nice math skills Pearly. I'm definitely making a 2010 edition of this thread, so you'll definitely see those games (hopefully!) next year.

@Darth

Of course I'm ready
