I'd be surprised at UT3 doing all that well. Particularily from a very PC oriented franchise, those who have been supporting the game may look, and then pee on the PS3 for being a console. All the fun and complex control scheme of UT without the ability to bind or fast swap, and few keys to map to!
Guitar Hero will sell like 50 cent/gram cocaine, if it doesn't require a new guitar. If it's a 140 dollar investment... why wouldn't they just buy the PS2 version for the 60 bucks and not have... well, possibility of paying 5 bucks for 3 tracks? A blue Ray disc clearly being used to capacity yet still costing an additional 10 dollars? What a bargain! I'd be a sucker not to buy.
My first vote is Heavenly Sword. It will make it so long as the demo doesn't show the entirity of gameplay and it does elaborate and become more fun. If not, it'll be close.
Ratchet and Clank will be close, but not passing 3 million worldwide on a console with a 30x install base to the PS3 does not bring my hopes up.
Lair has the review issue, and then I wonder if the PS3 players will crow about the amazing motion control will feel stupid for just a moment.
My second vote is Madden. Most PS3's are sold in America, most Madden are sold in America, and though it seems like a casual game (People play it and not much else. That's my definition of casual. Suck it Trebeck), fans are dedicated and Sports games don't get much improvement aside from graphics, so if it's done beautifully, you will make many a football fan erect. Sales may be limited by next years graphic and roster update, but if this doesn't make it, so long as the PS3 keeps growing, that one will.
See Ya George.
