At least that's how I read this bit from Gamefront. Can anyone confirm?

I think it will be as bad as MGS2
So ... many .... wrongs
1) MGS2 despite the grief over many aspect of the story, is still one of the best games this generation
2) MGS3, by almost every account, >> MGS1 & MGS2. MGS1 will still have a special place because of the innovation it brought, but technically and gameplaywise MGS3 betters it.

Vorbestellung means preorder, but the Japanese could be taken to mean that Konami have received 650,000 orders from retailers. I don't know if people are taking them to mean the same thing nowadays though. Basically if the retailer buys the game from the publisher it is sold and the publisher has made their money. But the weekly charts count the games sold by retailers, not publishers. Konami is said to be aiming for 1 million.

Yeah,
It's the same issue we go round and round and round again here with preorders in the US.

I love how hating on a particular game makes some people think they gain "cool points"

But you played as raiden the game was totally different!
Therefore it suxxor!
I hope MGS3 is as "bad" as MGS2.
And MGS2 did pretty well in Japan. Last time it was on the charts, and before the MEGA HITS! version, it was around 850K. Konami might've ended up shipping a million, but they never released a statement saying something like that, so who knows. And MGS2: Substance actually did best in Japan (around 200K or so).

Lord Error
Insane For Sony
I wander how many preorders it has in US and EU. I've heard some conflicting reports on preorders numbers from various people at messageboards who inquired in some of their local stores. Some said the preorder number is rather high, some said it was pretty mediocre.
