5m - another xmas season, GOTY edition, greatest hits, and Uncharted 3 hype will keep it selling well. I'm kind of surprised it hasn't been bundled in America at all.
|
| Heavy Rain |
2.3m - its already at 1.5. Move edition, xmas, and greatest hits will easily take it past 2mil
|
| God of War 3 |
4.5m - will have good legs as its one of those "must haves" for new PS3 owners. Lack of European sales will prevent it from getting to 5m.
|
Gran Turismo 5
|
7-8.5m - they messed up the management of this game so bad. Will sell amazing in Europe, but only "good" in America and Japan.
|
LittleBigPlanet 2
|
3m - big mistake missing out on holiday release. Young kids wont have $60 to spend on it in January. It couldve sold a lot more than that.
|
Killzone 3
|
4-4.5m - FPS trend is that sequels grow in sales. With casual-friendly improvements and a much bigger userbase, KZ3 should see much improved sales over KZ2 (which came out when PS3 still had a bad reputation). 3D and Move will also help it..oh, and Sony is actually advertising its games now.
|
Motorstorm 3
|
1-1.5m - 3D will help this game alot if its used as a Demo for Sony TVs
|
| Twisted Metal |
1.5-4m - type of game that could go under the radar, or blow up by word of mouth. Depends on the multiplayer. Stylish-violent game that is easy to market to Americans, but Sony doesnt market every game properly. They also have to be careful with it's launch date. If it's too close to CoD/GeoW/U3, then I can easily see it getting lost in the hype of those games
|
inFamous 2
|
2.5m - With a KB commercial, it could sell pretty well. Also isnt competing with Prototype this time around (which was very similar as a SuperHero/open-world type game)
|
SOCOM 4
|
1.5-2.5m - socom has a long hardcore following, and Move should help it
|
| Resistance 3 |
2-3m - They messed up R2 by launching too close to KZ2. PS3 user base is going to be more than DOUBLE what it was when R2 came out
|
| The Last Guardian |
2m - like Heavy Rain, will get good reviews and sell to hardcore gamers. Ico Collection might help it too
|
| Uncharted 3 |
5-7m - its going to be hard to top U2 accolades. It has huge shoes to fill. I can see reviewers being tougher on it as they compare it to U2. We know the SP will be good, but the improvement in Multiplayer is what will be key to this games reputation and sales. Will this be a 2011 or 2012 release? That could be a huge factor in its sales
|
| FinalFantasyV13 |
4-4.5m - will sell a bit less than XIII does
|
| AGENT |
3-5.5m - should atleast sell the same as RDR. Will get strong advertising like all RockStar North games do.
|

Twisted Metal has a huge cult following as well and we haven't had a good TM since Black. Jaffe already said that the new TM will be rated T to help it sell. This is by far my most anticipated game on the PS3 next year.
