Analyst: Medal of Honor launch “ill-timed,” needs more buzz
The October release window EA’s chosen is “ill-timed, sandwiched between the September 14 release of Microsoft’s Halo: Reach, which recorded $200 million in first-day sales, and the November 9 release of Call of Duty: Black Ops,” he further points out. “We really don’t see a rationale for owning all three of these games.”
EA on its part — while having declared all out war on the Call of Duty franchise — isn’t expecting to outsell Call of Duty this year, but has said it’ll come “dangerously close.”

I personally believe that this will come no where close to the outsell of the Call of Duty franchise. And -KNIGHT- I 110% agree with you. Reach is already old news. I wish I would have saved my money and waited for this. It looks so fun.

don't really care for the MOH series and especially this game. Unless they made major changes to the multiplayer side(which the beta was terrible) then i wont be buying it:(

Unfortunately, I agree. Don't get me wrong, I love the game and have had it pre-ordered for about two months now, but the timing and hype isn't anywhere big enough to get a CoD killer that EA wants.
However, if the Beta was any indication, it won't be a Black Ops or Reach killer at all.
