Simply put, how many boxes/downloads does TOR sell this yr. Should be interesting to look back at this thread after next month. I am going with 2.2M EDIT changed title to copies sold. Asking Devs to make AAA sandbox titles is like trying to get fine dining on a McDonalds dollar menu budget.

It will be over a million for sure. As of nov 12th there are 865,669 preorders for it. It hasn't updated yet and I assume it is over 900k. My guess is with the way numbers have been going 1.2m http://www.vgchartz.com/preorders.php

What is more interesting would be to see how many of these people will actually be playing 6 months later. I would say 1.5 million boxes. - Duke Suraknar - Order of the Silver Star, OSS ESKA, Playing MMORPG's since Ultima Online 1997 - Order of the Silver Serpent, Atlantic Shard

Originally posted by Suraknar What is more interesting would be to see how many of these people will actually be playing 6 months later. I would say 1.5 million boxes. Indeed... I'd put money on a 75%+ retention rate at 6 months. I don't see TOR having a serious dropoff until past 12 months...if there aren't significant content updates. With good additional content, they could keep that 75% up to two years, I think...

Change that to Whack-a-Gungan and you may have a record for box sales.
