You might have been right if God of War III didn't... er... well... have a "III" in the title.
Still, I reckon GoW III (not to be confused with GoW 3, the amazing 360 TPS franchise) will mostly only appeal to people who have played GoW I and/or II (again not to be confused with GoW 1 and 2). I never bought the PS2 games, but I did play them, and I'm reasonably inclined to get GoW III (if the missus will allow it, and probably only if it goes platinum). My prediction is that GoW III will have sales comparable to I and II. I think it is probably a game that some potential PS3 buyers are waiting for, but not a particularly substantial number. So as with most first releases of existing franchises this gen there will be a bump in HW sales on the week of release, and maybe for the week following, but that would be about it in terms of effect on HW sales.
