That depends on the quality of the finished product and how well reviewers will welcome it. Admitedly it looks extremely good, but everyone is staying cautiously optimistic since the last chapter was a mess. But if Guerrilla actually does succeed, it might become established as one of the biggest franchises of newer times. Thats of course, IF it happens, Im not counting on any positive reception from 1up's chief editor though lol. I think Killzone 2 average may end up on a scale from 8,8~9,6(-,7). I hope that they have really learned their lesson, and gotten more experience to make this an outstanding shooter. |
Personally, i think it's going to end up being a good game with good reviews, however i don't think it's going to be enough.
I looked up sales of killzone before making this prediction and saw that killzone sold 750k LTD, so even though it's not a new IP it doesn't exactly have a strong fanbase to draw from. Add the fact that the ps3 has a much smaller userbase (relative to the ps2 where killzone was released) and that the ps3 sells the worst in territories that shooters sells best, i just don't think it's going to sell great. killzone2 might have a ton of internet fame but that rarely spills over into the masses. it didn't work for zack and wiki last year and i don't think it will work for no more heros or killzone2 next year.
