Analyst: Black Ops to outsell Medal of Honor x 3

4.4
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.

Jacob8hockey I hate how the majority of cod players only play/have MW2. Im not saying I don't like cod and i am getting Black ops but people annoy me when they say "Halo reach sucks ********, play cod its way better". And every single one of those people hasn't even played Halo. Its pisses me off, and I wouldn;t care if Black ops failed hard.

That's because Halo Reach does, in fact, suck. I mean, for now it's simply a "time holder" for when Black Ops comes out. That's the only reason why I have it, at least. O_o


i totally agree with you because the only reason i bought halo reach was to help me wait it out but tbh it **** sucks big donkey balls i mean its freakin halo 3 with a new name but back to top honestly i have every COD game except 1 and W@W thats all and i still preffer MW2 over reach so i expect black ops to be x 10 of reach and MOH combined
