Well, I'm curious as to where system wars stands on this and want to see just how delusional the lemmings are...

FYI, The last WOW expansion sold 2.4 million in the first day. Gears of War took 1-2 weeks to hit its first mill...

Most likely Fable 2, though this is actually a very good thread.

Ussually these threads are like, what will sell more Gears 2, or LBP.

A thread that will be close finally. GJ

WoW will sell more. Fable 2 might also have high sales like GeoW 2.

11 million paying subscribers...but you got to assume that there are many older players who are waiting for Lich king to come out before getting back in the game.

I clicked this thread thinking, whatever console games it is, i'm going to pick Gears of War 2, because it deifnately will be the biggest seller.

Little did I think that WoW would be included.... Tough choice now, not sure which one will do better. Both will to amazingly well though.

WoW.. but probably not by that much (like only a couple of million :P)

Gears will have bigger "revenue" though, 60 dollars does that.

Probably the expansion but I sure wont be getting it... way too many wierdos playing the game not even as a past time some are on simply because thats the only way they can socialise with humanity.

Play a bit of FIFA 08 and a bit of GTA4 then head off to the Half Moon for a pint or two with some mates... thats what a 20 year old should be doing or atleast going out with a girl.

Always good to see that the prediction of Marini is proceeding according to his vision.

On topic- WoW, even though its past its peak.

Yes, I think WoW will sell more, what game could beat it? I was just referring to when you said, Gears of War took 1-2 weeks to hit its first mill.

it has a mad hype train behind it so far this gen its the only one to rivle that of halo

Says whom? To be honest, no one outside the internet game forums and site know, or care about it.

Halo was hyped to the point where if you didnt have it, you sucked.

I never even liked Halo and i still bought it day one, and i know many that did the same.

How often to casuals buy games? Plus, they're more likely to wait for it to drop in price or some madness.

Are you assuming that WoW players are No-lifers?.

if you are then that's really sad..i suppose that every gears player has uber 1337 lives, drives the hottest sports cars, get all the women, and own at Gears 2, and are CEO's of companies

Keep your stereotype's to yourself.

No-one said that, but you must admit - the number of truly absorbed people in World of Warcraft (and you must admit there are many of them) is easily equal to the number of fans of any description Gears has.

Gears should be compared to original WoW (WoW took several weeks to hit 1 mill), so WoW was original, Gears Was, now BC was like a sequel (with the original already having like 7 million subscribers) Now, Gears 2, shoudl with its 5 million sold original be better compared to BC.

Basically, GTA IV has already beaten it.
