Forums - Sales Discussion - Will God of War III and FFXIII outsell Halo 3's opening week?

Will the week of these games be more successful than Halo 3's? What do you think?

My predictions:

God of War III

First-week sales
1,230,000

Final Fantasy XIII's first-week sales

Xbox 360 735,000
PlayStation 3 1,850,000

Discuss!

NO. No ps3 game would. Not even GT5.

"WAR is a racket. It always has been.

It is possibly the oldest, easily the most profitable, surely the most vicious. It is the only one international in scope. It is the only one in which the profits are reckoned in dollars and the losses in lives"---Maj. Gen. Smedley Butler

I don't remember what Halo 3's opening week was, but my inkling is no.



Almost 4 million I think. And no PS3 game can do that.



FF13 likely it will 1.3 million easily in japan alone >_o.

about GT5 LTD will likey win .

Not God of War III because it doesnt have a big enough showing in Japan. Final Fantasy xiii could have a chance, but the comparison would have to include skewed dates, since Halo 3 released worldwide on one day, and FFXIII will be out in Japan far before it hits the west. FFXIII also multiplatform so its not quite a fair comparison.

One you didn't mention that could beat halo 3's sales is Gran Turismo 5. If it hits with a high enough install base for the PS3 (in Europe especially), it could maybe eclipse Week 1 halo 3.



No I don't think either will.

I doubt they would do it even with combined sales.



Do people really think GOW sells that well?

Get some fucking perspective.

What was the best opening week for a PS3 games anyway ?

Anybody now ?



 

Evan Wells (Uncharted 2): I think the differences that you see between any two games has much more to do with the developer than whether it’s on the Xbox or PS3.
