people forget that Resistance is a franchise that has sold 3 Million WW....some coming through bundles.

It had to compete with Fallout 3 & LBP....yet came out with 500K Week 1 NA alone

In EU we know it can do better than that.

Since when is a potential 1 Million 1st week "disappointing".....have week 1 sales of MGS4, GTA 4, Halo 3, GEOW 2 made us a blind to the fact that you don't need a 3 Million selling 1st week to "not bomb"

@shanbcn

please tell me what YOU expected?

 

I was hoping for a Million... I expected Fable numbers... The series had the potential to be Sony's Halo, but they are so hung up on Killzone 2 it's retarded...  if you had to choose between the two developers it's a no brainer... so why didn't sony go all out on this game?  I should have seen ads for this as much as I saw Fable 2 ads at least if not quite as much as Gears 2.  I hope it has legs... I'd like it to completely crush KZ2 by the end of the console's life.  This is THE shooter on the PS3... IMHO anyway... and i think many of you will agree

As darth says, there have been very positive impressions from the KZ2 beta, I can't wait for that game either. They can certainly happily co-exist
