Imo it has a decent chance to.

What about CoD MW3 on 360? Maybe, but that would be a shocker. BF3 should help to slow CoD sells a bit.

I've purchased all three as well as Uncharted. :)

It has a shot at 10,000,000 copies sold. Over 1,000,000 have already pre-ordered.

Uncharted 3 alone will be competition for it. Given the sales of all the other exclusives that have come out, I'm gonna say...yeaaahh no.

Your opinion is made from what research exactly? Fanboy hype? Pre order numbers for Gears 3 are ridiclously high because of the BETA. The game won't go anywhere near Halo Reach's sales let alone COD sales. It will probably outsell Uncharted 3 but not Killzone/Infamous/Resistence/Uncharted 3 combined. I'm a gears fan, i also know the fanbase of this franchise and how much it could potentially sell. IT won't go anywhre near COD or even Halo sales. TPS just aren't as popular. It will outsell Unharrted 3 because 360 has a larger userbase but Uncharted 3 will in my view become the biggest 1st party game for Sony. This thread is just silly.

Yes probably, because Gears is one of the only few exclusives coming out this fall and it has preorder sales record.

Edit: Oh and why do you think it will be a shocker if it tops mw3 sales? Talking about all platforms combined or just 360 mw3 sales?

Probably since the 360 has no games. 360 users have to buy *something*. I'd rather have multiple AAE-AAAE games to play, but that's just me :)

Gears 1 and 2 both sold around 5-6 million. Gears 3 won't do that much more especially with increased piracy rates on 360.

Piracy has a little affect on sales. It will top Gears 1 or 2 sales. *Looks at preorder sales record* and *looks at one of the only very few exclusives coming out this fall*

Again....i explained why preorder numbers are so high. People had to pre-order to get access to Beta. IF they did the same for MW3(even on 360 alone) then the Preorder numbers would destroy Gears in a day.

So, what? 99% of those people who preorder will also get the game.

What other games? i'd be amazed if Gears 3 has a higher average than Uncharted 3, from a SP point of view UC3 will destory it, and that's nothing against EPIC, they can't do anything with a cover based shooter. UC3 is also a platformer action adventure.

Also if they planned to cancel they would have already done so after getting their key.

Piracy has an affect on sales no matter the platform but I guess the companies and developers aren't working on drm, or putting in new updated piracy protection because they feel like spending the millions on R&D for nothing.

And? how does that prove your point? currently Gears 3 has less than a million pre-orders. If it sels 1 million in a week or day that's not COD or even Halo level. Fact is Gears 3 will sell amazingly well for a TPS but not on record breaking levels.

The same. Gears 1 won many awards and was groundbreaking for it's time. I don't know how the ****** Gears 2 got same reception, it's MP was horrible. But I suspect Gears 3 will have similar averages and scores.

Black Ops is estimated to have been downloaded around 930,000 times on Xbox 360. Super Mario Galaxy 2 for Wii had over 1.47 million downloads, while Dante's Inferno(lol) took the top spot on Xbox 360 with 1.28 million downloads. Yea, piracy isn't bad on consoles.

In terms of Physical Retail copies it won't. But we don't know how many copies Diablo 3 will sell online, i suspect more than Starcraft.

will Gears 3 even outsell Diablo 3? i doubt it

What was the sales for Diablo 1 and 2? (Including expansion packs)

they havent counted the sales for those games in years

seeing as Diablo 1/2/battlechest is still sold in retail

um Diablo 2 alone was 8million back in 2006 im pretty sure, i honestly have no idea, blizzard are like Valve, they never show sales
