25% of U.S. consumers have spoken; this holiday will be all about Call of Duty: Black Ops. That’s according to Lazard Capital Markets’ latest survey in which 17% indicated interest in picking up EA’s Medal of Honor, a small number compared to the one aforementioned, but still not that far behind. “Importantly, given the broader interest and timing with gift purchases, we expect Call of Duty will still sell at least 3x the number of units as Medal of Honor, although game reviews remain a key variable in determining core gamer interest,” said analyst Colin Sebastian, who believes the words of Activision when the publisher says Treyarch’s latest will break the current record, even though he’s not blind to Medal of Honor “gaining traction.” Whether Black Ops sales break those of Modern Warfare 2‘s and abolishes Medal of Honor sales, dedicated gamers know better; quality always trumps quantity.
That's sick... 3x more than MEDAL OF HONOR? Damn the game makers get rich when we sit @ computer n keep playin' games :'D

ReplyDeleteBut Walmart had a deal, MoH came with a $20 gift card so i preordered Black Ops with that. ;D

I don't blame them, it's going to be awesome as far as I can tell.
ReplyDeletei need to get a job at activision... SERIOUSLY!
ReplyDeleteHalo and Call of duty would always be the number one pre ordered games. By the great interest of new and creative ideas that they put into their games. Making the next 10x better. But If you know anything about Fallout series. It's got more chance to beat the with the game of the year award. Players love fighting other players on Cod and Halo. But Fallout that comes out soon will be a definite cool game. I love playing Cod and Halo. I love CoD more, but I know that i would certainly buy a Bethesda game like Fallout New Vegas.
