Mass Effect sells 1 million copies

Despite some trepidations within the industry Mass Effect is proving to be quite the good seller. In the first 3 weeks after release the game has taken in $1 million worldwide according to Jeff Bell, Corporate Vice President of Global Marketing for the XBOX360.

Originally the game was slated to sell only 328,000 units in November, but has tripled that estimate in only 3 weeks of shelf time.

This is good news to fans of the series as it was envisioned as a multi-part space opera and its current success bodes well for the subsequent games.
