Forums - Sales Discussion - Killzone 2 Sells 725K in its First week WW (just short of COD5) - thoughts?

Killzone 2 sales for its first week according to vg chartz are 725,919!

almost 726K

about 10K short of COD 5 unfortunately!

so is it good that killzone 2 almost outsold the sequel to  COD4 (which was released in the holidays) which sold more than Killzone 1?

UNFORTUNATELY as its released in the non-holiday season legs won't be there

ALSO

4th best opening week for a PS3 game

Doesnt matter, there will be profit in this game = what Sony needs.

Well, Killzone 2 been only available since friday, when COD 5, was from Tuesday. So, it's 3 days difference.

I think the opening for this game is pretty impressive given the known failure of the previous game to be anything other than mediocre and this game is down right amazing!

Here's hoping that this game is a million seller come next week as it deserves every single sale!



@cGI-quality

oh the 1st week sales have SHOCKED me dead

they are really good....I predicted 500K

BUT we are now entering a slow period of the year.....how will legs form?

@kutasek

that may account for a difference

One day of sale in America + three days in Europe ?

725k ain't too shabby IMO.

It debuted to almost DOUBLE resistance 2

if everything stay proprotional (lol it won't I know)

KZ2 will outsell Resistance 2........ 1.87:1!!!!!!!!!!!!



All hail the KING, Andrespetmonkey

I'm disappointed, but of course, it is going to sell at least 1.2m in EU, and probably the same again in America, at the very least, so it should beat 3m, which is what it needs to break even (I guestimate)
