| Millenium said: Yeah I don't see why not, GoW 3 is at 4.34 currently, doesn't seem impossible to pass. |
According to Vgchartz God of War III is at 4.46 million. You, like most normal people would, forgot to include the Trilogy editions sales which included a copy of God of War III and sold 120k.
I know God of War III is heavily undertracked, one example being according to Vgchartz GOW: Chains of Olympus sold almost 100K more in the rest of the world than 3 which is 100% impossible. Also because even when God of War 3 was in the top 10-20 best selling games in Amazon/Gamestop/ Best buy/ Walmart etc., for many weeks from and after black friday, the sales for GOW3 didn't pick up at all according to Vgchartz which is silly, not even during the xmas holidays did it's sales rise noticeably like every other game. I think God of War III is a lot closer to 5 million than Vgchartz would have you believe, I'm waitng for a response from Sony/develpers for details on sales information... Been waiting for 2 weeks now. :(
And I think God of War: Ascension will sell at least 1 million more than 3 lifetime, so if God of War III will reach around 5.15-5.30m lifetime, God of War: Ascension will reach between 6.15-6.50 m, especially if Sony makes an effort this time to actually advertise it (3 had no advertisement) and they bundle it as massively as Uncharted 3 (God of War 3 released during a PS3 shortage and was hardly bundled at all). Even so God of War III broadened the franchise's audience massively, the God of War fan page on Facebook is larger than any other Sony exclusive by miles with more than 2,600,000 fans, most of which will buy the game within the first week of release and spread the word of how amazing it is to everyone which will ensure the game will continue to sell for years due to great word of mouth.
