Not worldwide, but in North America specifically God of War performs better than Metal Gear Solid, and in North America MGS caused ps3 sales to spike 212% the week of its release.

MGS4 also came out almost 2 years ago, and wasn't following any significant releases in the same genre.

I was merely demonstrating that games that pull such numbers do have a decent amount of selling power.  God of War won't cause anything close to a 200% bump in hardware sales, but it'll do better than "not much of a bump".

Gears of War 2, Uncharted 2, and Mass Effect 2 even managed small bumps, and they're sequels to franchises that began on this generation of consoles.
