Do you think GoW3 will move much HW?

Yes, i actually expect higher sales then the PS2 games.

This. For many reasons.

 

1. Ps2 was heavily PIRATED. It was so easy to find access to copied games. Ps3 is the opposite and the only console this gen that hasn't been successfully hacked.

2. Less competition. Ps2 had a huge library of games. Ps3 library is significantly smaller, which will give a lot more attention to GoW III on Ps3.

3. Kratos is quickly becoming a mascot for PlayStation. When GoW1 came out, nobody knew what to expect. When GoW2 came out, the Ps2 generation was pretty much already over so it didnt get as much hype as it should've. But when GoW3 comes out, everyone will have their eyes on it.

 

I'm expecting Lifetime sales of 4-5 million... possibly even more if it's bundled.

Quite true.

Also early adopters are the hardcore, they will eat up GOW.

Also all previos Gow were march releases, a Xmas release would be huge.
