Heavy Rain pre-orders hit 100,000 in the Americas

Looking ahead to March, God of War III, Battlefield: Bad Company 2, Pokemon Heart Gold / Soul Silver and Final Fantasy XIII are really starting to pick up steam in the Americas. On current trends, God of War III looks good for an opening of around 750,000 units, Bad Company 2 could get close to 1 million units across 360 and PS3, Pokemon should see an opening of over 700,000 units as should Final Fantasy XIII across both versions (2:1 in favour of PS3). March looks like being a very strong month all round with a number of other titles also set to do solid numbers.
