I boldly predict that God of War III will be best selling game on PS3 in 09

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.

OH REALLY???

From what I see.... Japanese sales will make a HUGE difference....

There's a major difference here. Sony pretty much had a 35-35-30 split with the Ps2, with 30% in Japan (I know this isn't what it ended at). The Ps3 is more of a 45-40-15.

 

As for the OP's prediction, I don't see God Of War 3 selling more than 4M tops (I feel that is optimistic). If that is the best the Ps3 sees that year, that's a big problem. That's less than the Wii's 1 year old titles will sell, and almost all 360 titles will outdo that.
