I think it could hurt it. Especially if the game isn't quite up to expectations.
Though Sales Wise, The first one sold worse than AC, COD, and GT, and the so, I think there is a very good chance the sales could be hurt. however, it is released around the holidays, and it is a much more family oriented game than the others.
I don't plan on picking any of those up besides Gran Turismo, and maybe LBP if it gets raves, if it's extremely like the first one I'll rent it as I did Mario Galaxy 2 instead of buy.
really, maybe they shoulda tried to start selling it in october.
it's not releasing resonance of fate a week after FFXIII level of bad idea of marketing though.
