Of course, the big assumption that I make is that Gran Tourismo 5 will not be released in 09. Even if FFXIII will be released in 09, its PS3 sales will be diluted by the sales of the 360 version, and Japanese sales won't make much of a difference.

Here's how the God of War series has done so far:

God of War:

0.02 million in Japan

2.48 million in America

0.71 million in Others

Total: 3.21 million

 

God of War 2:

0.04 million in Japan

1.6 million in America

0.67 million in Others

Total: 2.31 million

 

God of War Chains of Olympus:

0.04 million in Japan

0.91 million in America

0.33 million in Others

Total: 1.28 million.

I simply don't see any other title that's high profile enough to beat God of War III.

 

Imagine the sales of GOW one a new system with a less reliable installed base. 2 million at the most LTD is what I predict. The PS2 which harnessed great sales couldn't gather enough to carry GOW through. GT5 will run multiples around GOW's 09 sales. It's sad people want to put a game like GOW up on a perch where it doesn't belong.
