GOWA didn't sell that well because the hack n slash genre itself is niche compared to the OTS genre.

Then why God of War 3 has sold more than 5 million units?

Hack n Slash is dying atleast. Just take a look at DMC, MGRR and GOWA and you'll get my point.

BTW I would like to think that GOW III has crossed 6 million units, since it reached 5.2 million units by May 31, 2012.

Metal Gear Rising has cracked a million units sold. DMC didn't sold because of marketing and poor Capcom's choices. I wouldn't say hack n' slash is doing bad these days; look at Samurai Warrior: keep pumping games out, because they sell.

MGRR has cracked a million on two platforms, which isn't a lot, especially compared to some other releases in 2013. I don't know anything about SW though.
