I don't see Ratchet putting up almost 2 million.
If MAG is only multiplayer, I don't see it doing as well as Resistance 2 or Killzone 2. I'd say like 1.3M if that.
I certainly can't imagine Uncharted 2 doing so well considering that the first one only started selling well when it was bundled with the system. When people actually had to pay out of pocket for it, it was only doing mediocre numbers. I'd say like 1.5M
Your Heavy Rain sounds about right but it might be too generous. I just do think that any console other than the Wii really has a large group of people who will give a game like that a chance. It's not a shooter, so that's like a mark of death already. The female lead isn't half naked or insanely hot and the gameplay seems like an evolved pc adventure game. I think it'll end up like Beyond Good and Evil... one of the best games nobody played.
I see God of War doing 3.2M but I think it'll reach that after being out for close to a year if not more. Thats almost 1 million more than the best selling one has sold, and it's selling to a smaller install base.

I don't see the PS3 beating the 360 saleswise for the Holiday unless it's selling for the same price as a 360 Pro (currently $299). I don't think a PS3 Slim will do too much of a boost. I don't think people are resistant to a PS3 because of it's looks. I'll predict that a $399 Slim PS3 basically sells the same as a regular $399 PS3.
| PS3beats360 said: Expect hugeboost in PS3 sales with PS3 Slim plus pre-holiday price cut of $100. PS3 will outsell the 360 by 2 to 3 million unit sales for the total sales year of 2009. |
I think that's crazy talk. We're almost 6 months deep and the PS3 hasn't outsold the 360 world wide a single time this year. To sell 2-3 million more units than the 360 would require like a 300% increase in sales starting now. That's highly unlikely given that the thing has been selling worse year over year.
