The latest pre-order charts are in and Mass Effect 2 is putting up some stunning numbers. With nearly 400,000 preorders and still 10 days to go before launch, week one sales should end up around the 750,000 mark - a huge improvement over the original game and the first blockbuster of 2010. MAG: Massive Action Game is also out the same week as Mass Effect 2 and despite setting the pre-order pace early on (mainly due to the MAG beta), I expect week one sales to come in at 300,000 - an impressive amout for a new IP on PS3! ? of War III continues to look good for a week one of over 700,000 and Battlefield: Bad Company 2 should comfortable outsell its predecessor.

The full top 30 can be seen below:

    The buzz is dying. The game turned out to be nothing like the original trailer. The graphics are just ok, and the voice acting is horrible based on this long clip I watched. And it's basically just a point and click game with some quick time events thrown in.

    if u played indigo prophecy then ull love heavy rain. indigo prophecy was a point and click game with an amazin story and it was different. those type of games arent for everybody, so i dont expect the world to be excited for heavy rain. people are excited for it where im at..

    could possibly get game of the year
