Very pleased for TLOU, but maybe overtracked? I can't see a new franchise pulling off this numbers. But if so, greeeat. Naughty Dog fans and survival horror fans (who didn't get much stuff this gen) unite and support this new IP.

Soul Sacrifice should do okish. It's a japanese style game, it's on a dead handheld, it's very niche imo. But please do 100k in the western FW. And then, have legs, DLC, and a bigger addon later.


I think you do ND a disservice. Imagine if Bungie were still 360 exclusive and they released a new franchise.

These preorders for last of us are about right, not amazing, but good. Is it my imagination or are they decreasing weekly though? Adjustments perhaps? 

Uh these numbers are AMAZING for a new IP. Its not like Uncharted 3 got millions of pre-orders. It only got 437k pre-orders. Its now at 6m sold WW.
So yeah, the fact that the game even got close to U3 pre-orders is a huge accomplishment. It's a zombie game so its going appeal beyond the Uncharted fanbase. Will probably end up as the best selling PS3 exclusive this year.
