These disappointing sales are not worthy of an exclamation point!

Hopefully it shows better legs than Killzone 2.

Disappointing? didn't we all expect lower week 1's

Within the past month, yeah, but a few months ago I never would've imagined that would happen.  I thought it'd roughly match Killzone 2's opening week, and possibly do better.  The game's been advertised more heavily than Killzone 2 afterall.

Though Killzone 2 had cinema ads and a red carpet opening in Europe, and that didn't happen for Killzone 3, so maybe it's just had better advertising in NA.

Did it launch in Japan this week?

If not Killzone 2 did 700K in NA/EMEAA Week 1

Its a 200K difference, it could be made up if it has better legs.

That's a 29% difference.  Pretty significant.
