Sony would be crazy not to bundle this game. This is THE definition of a system seller.


No, God of War: Ascension will be the bundled game for once in the series. Either that or Sony will bundle both games together (now that would shift systems). 

If God of War III can sell roughly 5.5m copies in 2.5 years with hardly any bundling, I'd bet on God of War: Ascension reaching 6.5m if it gets bundled UC3 style which is THE definition of a system seller. The Last of Us will sell 2.5 - 3.5m without mass bundling or 3.5 - 4.5m with, assuming it's an accalimed game. There's a lot of hype on the internet but it's not going to be a huge system seller, it's an untested new IP launching late in the console cycle with huge competition to go up against and for all we know the game could be all style but no substance and stink and bomb. 

And as far as consoles go, God of War: Ascension followed by Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 and Beyond Two Souls (actual gameplay not just cutscenes) are looking better. Gears of War: Judgment, Crysis 3, Metro: Last Light should look just as good. Also Tomb Raider could very possibly match it too since I heard that game is already playable from begininng to end and now the developers are just spending 4 months polishing everything.
