Forums - Sales Discussion - Gears of War 2 vs Resistance 2

I'm sure Gears will win, and both games will improve their numbers.

Resistance and Killzone wish they were Halo and Gears of War. THE END

I think the ratio for Gears 2 and Resistance 2 will be 9 : 1

 

This shows your intelligence.  lol



It's feasible for Gears to close to double it's sales from the last outing... I think that was around 3 million by the end of 06... so it's possible that it could see 5-6 million copies sold by the end of this year.

The reason why both Motorstorm and Resistnace sold in the millions, was because they were bundled.

Resistance is not as memorable as the first Gears of War.

Resistance 2 will sell just about the same as the first Resistance.

 

So, with this logic Halo sold millions because it was bundled.  I do beleave Motorstorm and Resistance out sold any of the 360's launch titles.  There is a reason M$, Sony and ninty put good games in bundles, it's to sell consoles.  The fact that the game is available in a bundle is a testimate to its ability to sell.

Anyway, this will be a close battle between the two.  I can't wait.

I dont think Halo was bundled and Motorstorm and Resistance did well cause it was bundled. What kind of dumb comment is that KJJ? Sony bundled them cause its first party and they wouldnt have had to pay royalties for them like they had to with MGS 4. Xbox 360 hasnt had to rely on such massive bundling or giving away 5 free movies, or giving away all their biggest games away for free like they are also doing immediately with little big planet.



If MS did use the Sony stratigy they would be bundling all their big games with the console in a special ed. version that was no different except for the packaging.

Gears of war 2 by 2 million again...

          Totally agree with you.

 



                                  

^ When the hell was halo bundled?

No way in hell Gears outsells Resistance 2:1. Resistance 2 will outsell Gears 2 in Europe, and Resistance 2 will be closer in NA than it was last time.

6 million to 4 million.
