What have we learned?

- That Nintendo isn't the only company who can move first party titles.

- That 3-5 hour games can sell decently.

- That a game with sales (bought and pirated) of around 2-3 million on a console with a 37 million userbase isn't terribly assuring for GOW3 on the PS3 which doesn't even have half of that at the moment.

Erm... God of War has only sold 3 million with it's highest selling game.

If the PS3 version comes anywhere close (2 million), it'd definitely be fine. I don't think anyone is expecting God of War 3 to outsell God of War, as God of War 2 hasn't even done it yet, and the original one is selling so well only because it is budget priced.

 

Well it all depends. They could try and pull-off a Killzone-Killzone 2 act, where the sequel thankfully for the hype and quality previews might sell much more than the previous versions...
