I don't think Resident Evil 5 will cannibalize Killzone 2's sales like COD:WaW did Resistance 2's. They're not nearly as comparable - not even the same genre - so it's not the same. |
Same genre, no ... but same population yes...
It is a risk to me....especially for the PS3 which is not that of an exclusivities mover.... 
Anyhow, KZ2 will probably appeal more players in the US and RE5 more players from Japan ...

The Resident Evil series is dying in Japan. Resident Evil 1-3 sold over 1.5 million a piece on the PlayStation in Japan (Resdient Evil 2 actually hit 2.3 millino), while the GameCube and PlayStation 2 versions of Resident Evil 4 COMBINED barely broke 700k. Resident Evil 5 is looking to be even more of a departure from the traditional Resident Evil experience than the fourth, so I expect even lower sales for the game in the region.
It seems Japanese gamers have good taste.
Resident Evil 5 will still do MUCH better than Killzone 2 in Japan, however.

Ah, makin, come on bro. Not buying RE4 is good tastes? No way!

It's not necessarily good taste, cause RE4 is a great game. It is however a great signal to Capcom that the series is going down the shitter. Give me a fucking scary game, with barely enough ammo and herbs to survive instead of a co-op Gears of Evil. I'll buy RE5 day 1, it will probably be the only game I'll ever be able to compete in the Achievement League and I'll love it to death, but still I'll be crying about the death of the Resident Evil series.

You do know that Cliffy said he directly copied RE4 to creat Gears 1 and 2, and his next game is a survival horror game, because of that series, right? If anything, it's Gears of Evil.
I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
I don't need your console war.
NO NO, NO NO NO.
