We don't know how Twisted Metal will perform and Warhawk sold considerably less than HR, so I wouldn't say that those studio's games have more appeal than Quantic's just yet.

Chances are even if they acquire another studio, it may not be until the PS4-era.

True for Twisted Metal, but the series was once moderately big, sold over 2m in Americas one time. But we don't know how many fans are still waiting for another game. Warhawk sold around a million on disk and probably a fair amount digitally. It may have outsold HR. Either way, it did pretty good for how bare it was. I can see Starhawk doing bigger numbers than Warhawk.

I have my theories for Starhawk and Twisted Metal, but I'll keep those to myself as I know how you don't like "if's and maybe's"

Maybe we share the same theory. I think Starhawk will initially sell not so good, but word of mouth will grant this title amazing legs.

How come you think Starhawk won't initially sell good?

Lack of advertising and lack of consumer awareness. Warhawk did good, but wasn't really a flagship title. I might change my theory based on how Sony treats Starhawk. If they announce some cool game features and make good advertisings, Starhawk might actually sell well.
