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. |
I dont think youre seeing it from the right angle. You see... Killzone 2 itself is a seller, the name itself is the seller. Reason being the huge amount of controversy it has gathered. Meaning it has alot of attention from gamers. That kind of controversy is priceless. Its like free advertising.
Now thats, not the point where it starts selling, it won't begin untill KZ2 proves itself. If it does get straight A's on the fly, then the gamers will want to play it. Some will play because it got classified as a fantastic game, others will try to convince themselves that the game is still crap and buy/rent it to prove it to themselves.
Regardless of who buys it, the amounts of which it will be sold will be much more important.
Neither Zack & Wiki nor No More Heros had/has that kind of amount of controversy that KZ2 has stolen in the gaming community.
