The Microsoft Game Studios boss has claimed on Major Nelson’s recent podcast that the latest Gears of War game is closing in on 3 million copies sold.
Gears of War 2 cleared over 2 million units the weekend it went on sale at the beginning of last month. It joins Fable II as being the most recent of Xbox 360 exclusive titles.
”I think they’re pushing 3,” said exec Phil Spencer during the podcast.
”Maybe Mark Rein has a more up to date number.” Rein is of course VP of Epic. Gears of War 2 was ranked 17th in the UK’s all platform Top 40 in the week ending November 29th.
