I think that it could be near 1.5 million if pre-orders and digital sales were included since VGChartz and NPD don't have access to those figures. Also both groups tend to be on the high side with their estimates.

that would be interesting to see. I was super surprised the UK didn't sell nearly as many copies. I wonder if it was a marketing error, or maybe Total Biscuit gave the game a bad rap? Almost everything leading up to launch over there seemed pretty legit.
I think it was because marketing was focused on North America due to available resources and money similar to how the limited editions were restricted to the US and Canada. Also there is just a lot less sales in the UK compared to the US, I actually believe Germany has or will have a bigger market for games in Europe.

I am glad to see that it at least broke the million copies sold mark.

I would wait for EA's quarter thing they do for all their games before we start to rejoice. But I can see it hitting 1mil for sure!
