Pachter: Modern Warfare in week 1 will “exceed $500 million”

Ok now we know he is unrealistic and full of complete bullshit.

Perhaps Pachter knows how many units Acti-Blizz have primed to ship this year.

I’m glad I cancelled my preorder. I’ll probably end up buying before Christmas but will try and hold off for a while. Maybe buy 2nd hand to muck up the sales figures

i don’t think so

Truly, This is the age of pointless modern warfare news!
looking forward to another week of it!

FFXIII was never delayed, really stupid video. 500 Million is not going to happen just because the first one made sells of 15 million doesn’t mean that more than the people in the US will get this game.

“FFXIII was never delayed, really stupid video.”

Neither was Christmas. You seem to have missed the joke slightly…

Well it started off true. Bioshock 2 was postponed because of the “cluster” of games in Fall/winter release ie MW 2.

First off, Michael Pachter is a tard, second, if they do make those numbers they’ll never release a patch for DS.

lol that link is funny

by the way I hear there is a leaked 360 version out and it’s been pirated hardcore for the xbox 360

Of course… unlike a lot of PC games, it’ll still sell shitloads even with a pirated version flying around.

yea at over priced cost of $60 where mirco soft will milk you for what worth.

pc gamer will just hack the game and still get mods out of it.

In fact the game is not worth ggetting because it looks like it has turn into a dumb down console junk!

Oh one more did you see sony stocks lately

i would be spuprise if infinty goes bankuprt in a few years.

from what I hear their hoping for a long console genteraion when the platforms are burning.

You never did comment on the Microsoft or Nintendo profits. I guess you choose to ignore what doesn’t suit your point of view.

hey did you check out project offset yet. unchart 2 looks like junk compared to project offset lol.

I wonder what they are going to do with a burning paltform. they must hate all them rented games these days or the used game market. I also hear they have a huge piracy problem lol.

here is a really great lnk

http://www.digitaltrends.com/talk-backs/will-pc-games-trump-xbox-360-playstation-3-and-wii/

Wait… now you’re going after the only OS with significant PC gaming support?

yea well, I hear there is alot really big companies after pc gamers these days. Mircosofts monoploy is going to go by by.

lol

which is more important to microsft, it’s OS or consoles. goes to show smaart console gamers are.

it would be funny when they lose more shares.

smh

oh by the way microsoft is sure making alot of money in the console decline what joke.

orly

yea microsft losing money hand over fist and los e their market share in the computer business because of a bad repuation.

I hear there is a few new operating systems like chrone out ther.

it’s kind of hard to miss pc gaming when computers are the life blood of gaming.

I wonder what they are going to do when onlive comes what a joke.

http://www.informationweek.com/blog/main/archives/2009/11/microsoft_losin.html;jsessionid=IG53OPBQ3ROBDQE1GHPCKHWATMY32JVN

That’s no way to speak of onlive.

(also, you might want to check Microsoft’s recent financials… plenty of money being made. Oh, and chrome is a lightweight OS, with only browser gaming support. Might want to read that last link too… because it’s talking about browser marketshare, which is irrelevant.)

so what does it feel like to be on the bottum of the food chain lol

hahahaha how is your console decline.

yea them console are not doing well in a decline. lol

market share is alot more important than profit when comes to money something microsft is good at losing.

Project Offset it planned to come out on PS3 and 360 you berk. Not that it’ll release on anything, based off how long its been in dev and whats been shown it must be in development hell.

“market share is alot more important than profit”

Don’t ever start a business.

Seriously, Psycho, don’t you EVER sleep or was winding bdh up worthy to keep you awake?

I work pretty serious hours from time to time. Winding up BDH helps keep me sane during those periods.

it’s like this if you don’t have market share your going to lose alot profit or long term profit!microsoft is a dumb company and it will lose alot more profit share.

BDH, sometimes you make TEA look like a rational and sensible human being.

“lol kind hard for microsoft to sell that new windows 7 these days. alot of articles asking alot of questions.”

“Amazon said that sales of Windows 7 in the first eight hours it was available outstripped those of Windows Vista’s entire 17 week pre-order period.”

http://akiba-pc.watch.impress.co.jp/hotline/20091024/etc_win75.html

If you can’t read that, it says that Windows 7 Professional and Ultimate editions sold out in Japan the day they launched.

So yeah, it’s really having a hard time selling, isn’t it? *rolls his eyes*

Wow, so profits are less important than market share, because your market share affects your profits?

Riiiiiiiiiiiiight.

“it’s like this if you don’t have market share your going to lose alot profit or long term profit!”

So profit is more important than market share… right?

Edit – Damn you GHz.

long term profit is more important. that is why one of the links I have posted talks about microsofts doomed fate.

good businessies try to keep their market chare not lose it. lol

Market share has absolutely NOTHING whatsoever to do with profits.

I don’t see many people walking around wearing Gucci, but I’m pretty sure that they are a profitable company.

I don’t see many people driving around in Ferrari’s, but I’m pretty sure that they are a profitable company.

I don’t see many people with Bang and Olufsen home cinema systems, but I’m pretty sure that they are a profitable company.

If I sold 1 product a year and had 0.0000000000000001 market share, but that product gave me a £37 million profit, I’m laughing.

yea I am sure microsoft is getting popular all over the world these days lol

???

“we will see when you have proof and not hot air. I can back my statments up. My words are solid!!!”

BDH, how about you actually respond to these *facts*? Go on, try it, try actually responding to the fact I just posted that proved you *completely* wrong.

Try it.

did you take the time to look at my above links I guess not huh. I have answered your questions before you even asked them.

Did you take the time to read them?

You said Microsoft weren’t having much luck selling Windows 7. Those links *prove* you wrong.

“Amazon said that sales of Windows 7 in the first eight hours it was available outstripped those of Windows Vista’s entire 17 week pre-order period.”

Respond to that.

Don’t expect too much Ashelia…

bdh is better at evading questions than a top politician.

In fact, he probably is.

clearly you don’t look it says it all right here
