ignoring install bases quite a bit there arent you....

 

Your point?

CoD4 sold 4M+ on a smaller install base than Killzone 2 has, yet now Killzone 2 can't sell the same on a bigger install base even though it is tracking higher than it while also being launched outside of the holiday season?

 

Makes sense I guess. -.-

Like I just said before, I predicted 3.5-4M, not Gears 1 numbers like you seem to think. You are the one in here trying to compare it to Gears 1 sales and basing it's success on it. Even worse you are the only one here trying to base it's success (present and future) on Gears 2 sales. You're arguing and calling out the wrong person here pal.

*sigh*

 

Well, what caused Gears of War to have intial success?

Some places I heard people say because people saw it as the first real "Next Gen" game. At the time the graphics were far above anything else released.

Now I must ask, considering how Killzone 2 looks. Why can it not have the same effect?

Thats your quote in the Killzone 2 sales thread Euphoria.

And you know what I was referring to on the install base point... Gears launched when the 360 had an install base of 5 Million!

Where does that imply 5-6+M Lifetime sales?

Thanks for ignoring every other post in that thread though.

^Well I guess we will eventually find out, but that time isn't anytime real soon.

That was also me asking why people think the graphics won't help Killzone 2 have a good launch week, not about first week and/or lifetime predictions. You are simply seeing what you want to see. It was a question about "how could graphics help Gears 1 have a good launch but won't help Killzone 2". How you took that as my prediction I have no clue, lol. The quote was also responded with what I say now, that it had those sales because it was a holiday release and also the first BIG title on the 360.

So as you can see I took something out of that thread.

This is getting really pathetic Kowenicki.
