	themanwithnoname posted 10/10/2011, 06:39 Gears 2 was released in November, not in September, so that's not an apples to apples comparison at all. Message \| Report
	Lafiel posted 10/10/2011, 05:06 hmm.. 3rd week in Americas is less than 3rd week of Gears2 in Americas - maybe Gears3 is just a bit more front loaded than Gears2 Message \| Report

	JustThatGamer posted 07/10/2011, 08:53 I'm predicting around 5.25m in America and 3.25m in EMEAA, and for what it's worth about 100k in Japan. So that's about 8.60m lifetime sales. Amazing game by the way! Message \| Report
	Dark_Lord_2008 posted 06/10/2011, 06:13 Expect 4.5 million+ sales in NA for Gears of War 3. Over 2.5 million sales in EMMEA. This game should easily sell over 7 million sales ltd. Second trilogy Gears of War series for the next XBox? Bring it!!!! Message \| Report

	nilli posted 02/10/2011, 06:05 Noodlefighter can you be anymore pathetic and desperate? This game goes to show you that developers don't need pc anymore. Infact it is better not to give the game for the pc pirates. Message \| Report

	Noodlefighter posted 01/10/2011, 10:16 @nilli I know just release it the launch of the X360 as a flag ship title, market it on TV and game stores, make it one of the few first party core X360 games that aren't kinect related and bamm! P.S. I'm not attacking X360 gamers and the X360 just nilli :P Message \| Report
	Feniris posted 01/10/2011, 03:56 7 or 8 Million at least for this game. Message \| Report
	PullusPardus posted 30/09/2011, 10:19 Flopped hard, well thats what happens to niche games , its not going to sell gangbangers like Disgaea 4 , that game is too popular. Message \| Report
	nilli posted 30/09/2011, 06:19 Awesome. See pic how you get HUMONGOUS sale numbers when you don't give your game to the pc pirates. Message \| Report
	jester2358 posted 29/09/2011, 10:06 gears 2 and uncharted 2 have near identical numbers in emeaa, so this should be a barometer of sorts to show how u3 will perform in that region. Message \| Report
	jester2358 posted 29/09/2011, 08:10 awesome sales! really liking horde 2.0.i think the sales in emeaa here are going to be similar to uncharted 3s. Message \| Report
	Bruno Muñoz posted 29/09/2011, 06:15 Edit: A pitty I can't edit my messages. I didn't read the word combined, so yes, it is a great feat. There should be an edit option. Message \| Report
	Bruno Muñoz posted 29/09/2011, 05:41 @foodfather, that's not a great feat at all, especially the second one. Message \| Report
	foodfather posted 29/09/2011, 02:33 Already outsold Killzone 3 and Resistance 3 combined. Message \| Report
	JaxxRaxor posted 29/09/2011, 02:21 Amazing sales for the first week in the Americas. GOW has won the month of September already in just the first week (Bye Bye Madden!) I wonder how well it will do in EMEAA. This game isn't coming out in Japan right? Message \| Report

	Smeags posted 28/09/2011, 09:26 Boom! Huge numbers. ^_^ Message \| Report
	Chunkysatsuma posted 28/09/2011, 08:37 This game should hit around 8 million lifetime - why resistance always launches at the same time as Gears is beyond me, it just highlights poor sales for them :( which sucks as they are good games Message \| Report
	Chunkysatsuma posted 28/09/2011, 08:35 This was for 5 days sales as well, not taking in its first weekend sales spike, around 2.5 million in a week is GREAT :) Message \| Report

	Zucas posted 26/09/2011, 09:21 An improvement on the second one and leagues ahead of the first Gears. Fantastic single player with some solid story-telling. Multiplayer, horde, and beast mode all give this game considerable replay value that I'll enjoy for awhile. Nice end to the trilogy. Message \| Report

	foodfather posted 25/05/2011, 03:32 The preorders are crazy good, mainly for the positive beta and hype around this being the last in the series. When the singleplayer trailer drops, preorders will start picking up even more. Best selling exclusive of 2011 Message \| Report

	Mr Puggsly posted 03/11/2015, 10:27 Millions more likely own the game digitally. Its been on sale many times and was even a GwG release. I'm gonna revisit the series when it comes X1 BC. Message \| Report

	Wright posted 22/01/2014, 03:29 I'm having hard time believing this game didn't pass the 6 million mark. Undertracked. It surprised me, though, that the best selling GeoW was 2. Message \| Report
	JustThatGamer posted 19/06/2013, 03:35 Actually Gears of War 3 was 100% non-bundled in 2012 and it only had the limited edition bundle in 2011 which would only appeal to Gears of War fans. This game has sold amazingly, especially considering it's never been bundled with a standard 360, I read somewhere that it's massively under-tracked too (I'll have to find a link to that claim).
