Your week one prediction may be almost right. Your lifetime prediction, however, is way off.
I've said it before in this thread, and I'll say it again:
If Uncharted can break 2 milion, why can't Killzone 2 break 1.5 million?
Especially when Uncharted has the stigma of being a Tomb Raider clone to those that know little about the game, and Killzone 2 is in a more popular genre (FPS vs TPS with heavy platforming elements)?
Also, how will Killzone 2 fail like LBP failed? LBP is already at 1.65 milllion, and will sell at least 3 milion, if not 4 million when all is said and done.
Your lifetime prediction for Killzone 2 is going to be WAY off. Even titles like Heavenly Sword managed to get close to 1.5 million (1.38 million, and it's also still full price in NA). And Heavenly Sword is in one of the more niche genres out there. The best selling Hack n' Slash game is God of War, at a mere 3.21 million units.
