The judge will be the sales figures...ther eare now MORE ps3 on the street, than when Halo 3 launched, so there can be NO excuses for why it CAN'T outsell Halo 3 and Gears 2.

Halo has a lot more appeal. It was a launch title last gen, perhaps the best launch title ever made. The sequel was also excellent, and so was Halo 3. Resistance 2 may be better than Halo 3, it may not. But it just does not have the fanbase that Halo does.

Combat Evolved was the best game on a console with comparatively (compared to PS2) few great games. Resistance, being new this gen, cannot hope to touch it in sales. Neither can Gears 2. Gears 2 will also outsell Resistance 2 because, typically, if you liked Halo, you'll like GeOW, and there are currently more 360 owners than PS3 owners. The 360 is also considered a shooter console.

So, in sales:

1) Halo 3

2) Gears of War 2

3) Resistance 2
