Borderlands 2 pre-orders reach 1.25 million worldwide

That's including every HoC Member except Swag

From VGChartz:

Despite good reviews so far, Borderlands 2 is likely to be a front-loaded game in terms of sales and we estimate that the 1.25m pre-orders will extend to around 1.5 - 1.6m units in week one (5 days of release in North America and 2 days in Europe). This is significantly higher than the original Borderlands which sold around 450,000 units during week one back in 2009. The large increase can be attributed to the long-term success of the original game combined with a strong marketing campaign from 2K which has seen Borderlands 2 set pre-order records for the company.

Technically some places will still take pre-orders and since Steam is not included these numbers are most likely low. Still good but low.
