God of War outsold MGS2 in NA. God of War II outsold MGS3. MGS4 managed to spike the ps3's sales by over 200% in NA the week it released. God of War III will do something similar.

Do you think GOWIII will move as many systems in NA as FFXIII will in Japan?

Come on making, give us your insight....

Well yeah, given the fact that the ps3 will probably be selling upwards of 60k in NA on a normal week anyhow, as opposed to 20k or so for the ps3 in Japan.  :P

FFXIII should boost the ps3 to 120-180k (depending on how many people already bought a system for the demo), and GoWIII should do something similar in NA.

Percentage wise, GoW will have a markedly weaker effect on sales than FF.  The western hardware markets aren't near as affected by software as the Japanese market.  You never see dips and spikes in the NA/EU markets becuase of software like you do in Japan, where things jump around on a weekly basis.
