So you considerr both of them having less preorders than there predecessors (once again you know what I mean) a lot of hype.  Halo 4 = a lot of hype.  Gears of War 3 = a lot of hype.  Gran Turismo 3 =  A lot of hype.  Metal Gear Solid 4 = A lot of hype.

These games are not gaining traction compared to the previous games in the series.  I for one expect lower sales for both of these series.  I find both of them to be highly unpredictable as far as sales but as for hype they both are below there predecessors yet there is more consoles out there now than when the previous installments was released.

For God of War, I've seen a substantial craze and hype for it, both net and real world, so yes. Gears, not as much, but I've still seen some. If you read the original quote carefully, he said NO hype. My argument is that there has been some, ads included.

Maybe I read him wrong and he would be wrong but a substantial craze?  I think you are mistaking forums that are filled with sony fans over hype.  



Well, since I said net AND real world, I'm not sure how you drew that conclusion, but since this is not getting anywhere, feel free to have your view. 

I'll just let the first week and lifetime numbers do the talking. If both sell significantly less than God of War III and Gears 3, I'll happily revisit this thread and post accordingly.


I'm not blinded by my emotions ;) So yes we will see.  PS4 and NeXbox are also going to shorten both of there lives.  Ascension has a better chance of reaching GoWIII numbers but itll fall short.  My guess would be anywhere from 2-3.4m
