I don't think that game will flop. Will it sell 4 million copies? Hardly. I think it'll sell around 1 million - 1,5 million, and I think that's OK for the "new" IP and a genre that is pretty much dominated by bigger names Tekken, MK, Capcom's IP's, KOF....

Pretty much the ones who dominate are only capcom and Tekken nowdays, Mk to some extent but giving the evo entreis is starting to decay. The others like KoF, Blazblue, soulcalibur find it hard to rach the 1M these days amny of them havent. Even sfxT got it hard.

The success of this game will depend entirely on how it's advertised, either a paty game or fightinggame.

For Soul Calibur's part, i think part of the problem was that SCV was a game that nobody asked for. All i heard about it was that the new cast's stories were disappointing, and that they weren't adequate replacements for the old folks.
