I went at lunch and noticed they had a table with several stacks of CDs. They were going pretty fast. I got my one copy and went looking around to ask if there was a special edition and a clean version. As I was looking for someone I kept an eye on the table and saw at least six people copping em in the span of just a few minutes. After talking to the blue shirted employee and finding out they arent selling the special edition or clean version there, I went to the line and saw another dude putting more CDs on the table. I definitely got the impression these things are going like hotcakes. As I was getting into my car the dude parked next to me was bumpin track 1, not even leaving the parking lot, just sitting there bumpin it.

Yeah I went to Target this morning when it opened cause I knew they had the version with the DVD. And there was 2 people pikin it up in front of me and the chik that cheked me out said I was like the 10th person to buy it just this morning. So I really think this shit gon do at least a mil in a week. . .

I still don't think it's doin a Mil...I donno if y'all are in L.A. or on the West, but I'd guess y'all are...which is why they are movin so fast.
I remember going to Best Buy out here in Florida when it first dropped....I got there at about 12, and it was a decent number left....but when I came back at 5 or 6 with my homeboys, there were no copies of the regular version left at all...they had to buy the DVD package one. I went there today, and I could tell that they had sold a decent number of them, but it was nowhere near being sold out just yet.
I am still thinkin 400 K first week.

I wonder how many of those people buying his cd, only bought it because hes on tv right now, instead of because his music?
-
I thought Best Buy only had a version with a few wack ass tracks you can d/l.

Mine had one track "Chillin" for download and its in cheesy WMA format that for somereason didnt d/l right and has clicks in it. But hey I'v had it for a week already anyway. Thank You Internets and you series of tubey goodness!

if game does 400 + he should be extremely happy .. thats a fall of of only 200 k from his last album without 50 im predictin 300-350 if hes lucky - no 50 cent ..no mainstream hit singles = 50 % sales decrease

That was probably me bumpin' that shit in the BB parking lot... haha.
But for real, walking into the BB and Target (where I ended up finding the last copy of the DVD version) I saw people walking out with the album out here in Michigan.
After I bought it, I crept up to the Taco Bell drive-thru and dude at the window asked if that was the new Game cd I was bumpin... dude knew what was up.
If this album does indeed do great numbers, it will be all Game... dude didn't put any of the other artists featured in the album anywhere on the packaging... props for that... the music speaks for itself.

you lucky bastard living in the East... lol i went to target in Rosemead out here in Cali... shit was sold the fuck out... haha still had a few regular ones... so i got the regular one... they have one with his son on the cover and one with game on it whats the difference?
when i went to the target about 5:30pm there was a guy wearing a Blackwallstreet shirt with his "Nov. 14th One Blood, New Album" shirt or whatever.. and easily about 10 heads buying it as i was asking the lady to see if they had anymore special edition... and she was a lil asian lady... and i asked her about it she was like "people been buying that cd all day?? is it really that good?" she was suprised... but they didnt have any of the DVD versions anymore... which is a good thing i guess... too late for me because i was at work... anyone know where i can get the DVD version online?

thats how it waqs here in Kalamazoo, MI, too. they were practically out of the cd on display. i saw wrappers for it all over the parking lot too. 9.99, not bad for a new cd.
-
was @ bestbuy around 10:30 am and saw around 10 people with the cd in there hands. one dude had a bws hoody.
i was lookin for the dvd version but didn't see it. i'm sure its sold out by now.

Poor Fat Joe.....I don't think he sold one copy of his album yet.

You wrong, Game bought a bunch of them while Joe copped a bunch of DA's. There's a story over at MTV.
