Analyst Predicts Modern Warfare 3 Sales will Double Battlefield 3
Pachter told Forbes that the two rival shooters should generate over $1.4 billion in revenue in the three month period, representing 15 percent of total packaged game sales.
He also thinks Modern Warfare 3 could sell an additional eight million copies in 2012 and Battlefield 3 another two million units, with many gamers choosing to pick up both games.
"I'd guess that around half of the console copies of Battlefield 3 will be bought by people who also buy Modern Warfare 3, so around two to three million will buy both," he said. "I don't see much cannibalization of the titles."

TauntzE Why fix something that isn't broken?
Agree. The engine is fine. It runs smooth and everyone is used to in the series. Of course the engine is going to need a total revamp eventually.

Sales mean absolutely nothing, but I am enjoying BF3 right now and am excited to play MW3 also!

I swear to god it seems like every BF3 or MW3 post is just filled with people spamming their uninformed opinions. Both games are great. Graphics are OPINIONS and I hate to say it but no video game is truly realistic. If you want a real video game play AA true soldiers but its hard as H3LL because its realistic. My point being, if the game is realistic it wont be as fun!
So bottom line, please stop posting your opinions unless you stray from bashing another game.
