Forums - Sales Discussion - PS3 To Have 3 Weeks In A Row With Atleast 1 Game With A 1 Mill + Opening ?

Black Ops and GT5 will most certainly do it, but LBP2 has a very low chance imo.



Around the Network

LBP2 will so not reach a million week 1. Don't get me wrong I love the sereis to death and will get the game eventually but the hype level for this sequel is way down. Personally I think its too soon and would have liked to see MM work on something else before.

The way I see it, LBP2 will either go the way of R2 and Motorstorm 2 (heartbreakingly lower sales than original) or Uncharted 2 route, (Healthy growth that increases sales of original marginally).

I hate Sony for not bundling LBP with every PS3 from March 09 until now. Would have paid off in spades IMO especially with all the extra DLC they could have sold and hype generated for the sequel.

I doubt LBP will but definitely GT5 and COD BO.

The only problem there is R2 and Motostorm 2 weren't bundled to living hell like the first ones were. Even then Resistance and Motostorm were launch titles that had to sell somewhat good considering how many launch games and quality games there were for the PS3 at the time. It would be more fair to say that we should compare the next sequals to these to games to their part two predecessors.

It would be like comparing Wii Sports to Wii Sports resort in a way. No way WSR was going to sell as much as the original cause the first game was praticaly bundled with every Wii except Japan.



FootballFan - "GT has never been bigger than Halo. Now do a comparison between the two attach ratios and watch GT get stomped by Halo. Reach will sell 5 million more than GT5. Quote me on it."

COD is released by Activision.  Sony doesn't get to decide when other publishers release their games.
