That's a good question. I guess someone would have to dig up old NPD data? I certainly don't think it was near 500,000, though.

Unfortunately Turbine doesn't share any subscription numbers or anything else for the game... so anything beyond that sort of stuff is more or less just guessing.

Businessweek (http://www.businessweek.com/innovate/content/sep2007/id20070928_550277.htm?chan=top+news_top+news+index_innovation+%2Bamp%3B+design) had US sales at like 200,000. I'm sure it's higher now and I don't think that includes any online purchases, but it's certainly not super high.

But if we include Europe and other areas, I'm not sure what the number would be.
