Medal of Honor needs to sell 3 million before sequel is considered

This is one pre-requisite that is totally in the hands of gamers. EA is putting out a condition of 3 million units sold before a sequel is even put into consideration for Medal of Honor.

 

 

moh

 

 

 

Said Executive producer Greg Goodrich to New York Times, "I'm not going to be able to do another one" if that sales target is not met. After all, the company did shell out some serious bucks, even hiring military advisors just to make sure that the developers will be able to create a game which will allow "the player to fell, not like they're in a movie, but like they're in Afghanistan."

 

 

 

 

With the recent controversies surrounding the game, it sure would be a challenge for EA to meet that requirement. Or maybe not.

 

 

 

 

Medal of Honor comes out on October 15 for the PS3, Xbox 360 and PC. We'll know then if EA will be making a sequel for it.

If the gameplay and graphics look anywhere near as good as they do in these trailers, I think they can do it no problem.

With Halo Reach and Black Ops being released soon this game might hit 2 million, in my opinion, nothing more.
I don't believe this game stands out from CoD and Halo enough to sell more.

psJailBreak/psGroove/psFreedom all which have the ability to run Backup Manager is going to ruin game sales as obvious, but hopefully not too much. 360's doing fine.

I hope they do but wouldn't bet money on them.

New update already disables those, an update that this game will obviously require, and it's too early for us to start patching PS3 games.

"360's doing fine."
Not even close. You forgot that A LOT of people have Jtaged Xbox 360s.

I find this ridiculous. Why should any game be required to sell 3 million copies before a sequel is considered?
I can understand if it under-performs, maybe a sequel isn't the best idea. But when under-performing is considered below 3 million copies, I can't help but assume they're doing something wrong in the development process.

Is all that extra expense marketing or something?

# Agreed — papajag 2010-09-10 13:29
But it will most likely sell 3 Million copies. Even if it doesn't there's no way EA will give up on a game that will get them up to at least 2 Million in sales.

I call bluff on EAs condition. They know the FPS market is high.

How about working on the game some more before even thinking about another. Why the hell does there always have to be a damn sequel right after every game?
Im not saying its a bad thing but damn, I want a game that wont be replaced by itself in about a year

MoH fans better hope this isn't like EA saying the dreamcast would have to sell 10mil consoles for them to publish for it...

dreamcast did, but EA never did. not that i wanted all their crap games, but many did.

Medal of Honour 2, developed by Infinity Ward Respawn Entertainment.

Expect that headline in 18 months.

I bet they will do it great. But with psJailBreak, psGroove, psFreedom, JTAG, iXtreme hacks still available, competition from new games (CoD:Black Ops, AC3, etc) and people still busy playing online CoD4, MW2, SC2 and others, I would be surprised if they meet the 3M target.

well im liking the game so far, plus the PS3 limited edition at no extra charge is a perk, but a sequel will cheapen the value of this to me cause they'll be in on the money train like modern warfare guys, and this generation is just packed with fps.... all inferior to killzone lol. So if there is a sequel, i won't get it.
