2Million is doable at retail. Hope there's a heavy heavy sales on the Online Distribution front but I doubt that would be more than 300K world wide. Still, you never know.

EDIT: You know what, I take this back. I'm sure this can sell at least 2.5M at retail.

Yeah but your biasness towards PSP has been exposed long ago!


Ignoring that, look at the data. MGS is a bigger franchise than GoW yet Chain's of Olympus was able to do it and without the impressive Japanese sales.

I think MGS has a fair chance if GoW can do it without being labeled and totted as a full and important entry in the franchise like MGS:PW is getting. Dark Resurrection, a port of a PS2 game that came a year before it managed to do 2Million on PSP. The Disgaea series is also an example of how a series can do extremely well compared to it's console entries when the Publisher/Developer puts in the effort.

Chains of Olympus released in a much healthier western PSP market than Peace Walker will.  And since you brought up Dark Resurrection, why not take a moment to look at how Tekken 6 has performed on PSP recently?  Same thing with the recent Nippon Ichi games (Classic Dungeon, Absolute Hero, Prinny 2, etc)?  Those titles might give you a better idea what the current PSP software climate is like...
