killzone2 is now tracking below cod waw and fable2.

And in response to a thread the other day it will be lucky to make 2 million before July now, nevermind mid April.

Halo Wars isnt showing better legs and will always be around 300k behind KZ2... sold incredibly well for a RTS though.

 

Buut ... but ... its going to hit 4 - 4.5 million!!

no chance....  2.5m and it will pretty much flatline...  not what was hoped for surely.

 

I told people again & again the game has nowhere near the HYPE of MGS4.....so why are people even bothering to predict sales higher than it

but noooooo....no-one listened!

 

Killzone 2 had more hype then MGS4 at least in advertising revenue. Can only speak for here in the UK but they spent £2m advertising KZ2 here. They didn't spend anywhere near as much on MGS4 here.

Personally i expect KZ2 sales to at least match what Gears 1 sold seeing as the PS3 has now got a bigger install base then what Gears 1 had at that time. I would also go so far as to say im confident that KZ2 cost maybe even twice what it cost to make and advertise the orgional gears game. Advertising = hype.
