Forums - Sales Discussion - Biggest game of Q1 2011 - LBP2

What will be the biggest game of Q1?

With so many titles being released in this period its crazy huge, and is the Biggest Q1 ever for gaming 

While it seems SCE is counting on a big Q1 with heaps of its titles such as Little Big Planet 2, Kilzone 3, Socom4 are all being released that period. 

But on top of SCE big Blockbusters you have Valve with the Highly Anticipated Portal 2 which will hit the shelves. Not only that but Square Enix is bringing out an Huge title with Dues Ex Human Evolution as well. 

Dont forget Ubisoft  with Tom Clancy Future Soldier and THQ with Homefront 

the Q1 market for 2011 is at the point of Over Saturation at the moment and with So many High quality games being released at the same time frame i am worried that such great games will fragment each other and damage sales of these great titles. 

But what will be the Biggest one. Well Preorders are showing that Little Big Planet is going to be HUGE on the PS3 next year with the Americans reaching 100k already which displays that this game is going to skyrocket closer to launch, since games like this usually aren't pre ordered. Tom Clancy Future soldier is powering well with around 100k pre orders in America's will see it doing well. 

So what will it be 





Of Course That's Just My Opinion, I Could Be Wrong

Around the Network

I can easily see Portal 2 individually outselling all of Sony's releases. Mainly because it's a highly anticipated multi-platform release. I think that LBP2 and Killzone 2 will sell more than their predecessors though.



Bet with Conegamer and AussieGecko that the PS3 will have more exclusives in 2011 than the Wii or 360... or something.

Gran Turismo 5 if we're unlucky and it get's delayed closer to january. Otherwise LBP2.

Guild Wars 2 is easily bigger than LBP2. The original game sold 6.5 millions, and all signs point to GW2 sell even more than that, considerably more.



This isn't even up for debate.  It's Pokemon Black/White.



Another thing to consider is the 3DS onslaught.  Though there will only be ~4m or so units to sell in to, but I can still see games like Nintendogs plus Cats or Ocarina of Time 3D moving 2m or more by the end of March.  



LBP2 will sell a good bunch. However my game of choice is the sequel to the best FPS game ever: Killzone 3!



Zelda



Above: still the best game of the year.
