Today the last of the big October titles came out. So I figured we should get a little contest going (gaf styIe!). you'd be guessing just the software sales for the month. Think of any October game that comes to your mind and guess what it will sell for the month of October. The NPD data usually is released in the third week every month, so we'll compare everyone's numbers and the person with the closest predictions will get a cookie and a night full of passion and lust with MGS4 hater, our own GME.

My Predictions (Not for every game that came out this month, only the popular ones)

Fable II (360) - 1.1 million units
Socom(PS3) - 300K (only the headset version)
Far Cry 2 (360, PS3, PC) - 1.2 million units
Bioshock (PS3) - 200K
LBP (PS3) - 400K
Motorstorm(PS3) - 300K
Rock Band (PS3, 360) - 1.3 million units
Guitar hero WW - 1.8 million units
Dead Space (PS3, 360, PC) - 700K
Fallout 3 (360, PC) - 800K
Wii Music - A billion gazillion units
Midnight Club (PS3, 360) - 1 million units
Saints Row 2 - Enigmac's guess - 1 milion units (:P 800K)

I have 13 predictions, so the difference b/w each of my predictions and the actual numbers will then be added together, and the person with the lowest total will win that night of passion I mentioned earlier. I'll do all the math for everyone's predictions so dont worry about that.

There's only one rule: You can't have less than 8 predictions.

Fable II (360) - 600k
Socom(PS3) - 125k
Far Cry 2 (360, PS3, PC) - 900k
Bioshock (PS3) - 200K
LBP (PS3) - 300k
Motorstorm(PS3) - 100k
Rock Band 2(PS3, 360) - 900k
Guitar hero WW - 800k

Dead Space (PS3, 360, PC) - 600k

Fallout 3 (360, PC, PS3) - 600K
Wii Music - 700k
Midnight Club (PS3, 360) - 300k
Saints Row 2 - 600k

I'm going conservative, a lot of these games released later in the month, and I have a feeling that a lot of them will underperform due to poor marketing and releasing in a sea of quality titles.

How come you didn't include hardware numbers in this prediction thread?

I'll post my numbers later at night.

including hardware numbers might have attracted the system wars crowd. I wanted a thread in General Games Discussion to be just about games.

Can I still do the NPD thread or are we going to use this?

Nonono, you do your thing. This is a prediction thread only. Besides, GME is eagerly awaiting the winner of this one. He's already n00d.

I refuse to make predictions, in fear that I may be right.
