In comparison, what were the preorder numbers for God of War 3 the week before release? Because those seem a little low if you ask me... hopefully the first week sales will be good, then again, this IS only the US numbers.

God of War III (PS3) Sony Computer Entertainment, Action

1

53,501

423,683

cool only 80k.

 

well that's disappointing for god of War, but here's to hoping 800k first wk. i think that's what GOW3 did first wk.

Gears will end about the same.

 

In the grand scheme, 80K really isn't a big deal. If GoW III sold 5.08 mill and Ascension sold 5mill, that would hardly be a reason to worry, especially given the latter is a prequel.

Also, people are forgetting the Limited Edition system isn't countd in the pre-orders. I'm one of the folks buying it (along with the Special Edition version of the game). That two sales.

wow really?  I didn't know those weren't counted that's weird.  I pre-ordered GoW and LoU special editions (survival for LoU cause I'm not paying over $100 for a game and only really want the steel case lol).  I'll also be getting the Beyond special edition.  Sony is even offering value in special editions now with these ones that are only $20 more and since I've never bought a SE before this I'd say it's working.
