My most anticipated game now.
Sadly it's an under-the-radar game for many gamers. I believe it will get good reviews but not sell that much. I'm thinking 85% Meta but hoping for 90%.
I would compare Dishonored to Bioshock and Deus Ex Human Revolution to get an idea of its sales potential.
Bioshock got amazing reviews at Meta 96% and went on to sell 3.5 million on PS360. But Bioshock is Bioshock,becoming a huge success and instant classic.
Deus Ex got a 89% Meta and is on track to sell 2.5 million lifetime on PS360. But remember that Deus Ex had much more pre-release hype than Dishonored has got.
So I think Dishonored with a 85% Meta will sell 1.5 million lifetime on PS360.

Well if they advertise it properly, then maybe it will manage to hit the million on both Platforms. I mean Rage sold almost 3 million copies and this game sucked. But it got properly promoted.
Bioshock and Deus Ex succeded because of the quality.

Yeah, quality, that's why I compared them because I think Dishonored will be quality too.
Yes, there are quite many mediocre games who are easily able to sell 1 million on both platforms. But Rage I think was mostly picked up from the bargain bin. It's been 10 Euro here in Sweden for several months which means they really really overshipped.
But do you really think Rage sucks? I am playing it right now halfway through and I like it so far. Some things in it piss me off though, like the linear levels and invisible walls and the game holding your hand assuming the player is a moron.

I mean it sucked compared to Bioshock. I played it just an hour or so, the graphics where great but had some texture issuses. And I did not like the car combat MP at all. It was not bad, not as bad as Homefront anyway. But I was hoping for more tbh.
I hope Dishonored will deliver. Will preorder it or buy it after the release, or maybe pirate it?
