They won't. I see no hype over GoW: A and Gears: J and, most importantly, no ads.

No hype? Um, there's hype all over the place for Ascension, especially since the demo/beta. Gears hype is fairly low, by comparison.


TV ads. Not internet. Gears:J is getting ads as well across the internet and XBL.  Internet hype vs real world hype is both very different, and I see little hype compared to there predecessors.

Neither has a predecessor. Second, I've seen a commercial for both Gears J and God of War: Ascension, though the latter was promotional and not an actual ad. On the net, yes, but unlike the past, net hype makes a difference in 2013.

Now looking at the pre-order numbers, both are behind the last titles that released, Gears especially, but that can be attributed more to each title's status, not lack of "hype".


-_-  You knew very well on what i meant by predecessors.

No internet hype is very small compared to the real world.  Yes it helps but people who visit forums and gaming websites are in a big minority.  It helps getting ads on youtube though since that is basically a form of telivision and your every day person will visit.

And yes Gears Judgement is way behind Gears 3 but relatively close to God of War Ascension and  I wouldn't doubt it if Gears Judgement actually will have a higher preorder rate than God of War Asencion by its final week.

2
God of War: Ascension (PS3)
Sony Computer Entertainment, Action
3 20,705 249,750
8
Gears of War: Judgment (X360)
Microsoft Game Studios, Shooter
4 53,796 172,132

Notice the weekly change


those gears pre orders are a joke, no matter what way you look at it


I think you have missed my point.  Reread through some of the things i said.  They are both going to fall short of there predecessors is my point. And if you consider Gears Judement not to be hyped then GoWA isnt really hyped either.


of course they will both fall short, but the difference beteen Gears 3 and Judgment is just huge, much much much bigger then gow3 to Ascension
