Not sure if this has been asked before but the thought popped into my head last night.
To me the survival horror genre is a very niche genre with majority of the last true games being relegated to small-to-medium releases on PC, but with the release of Evil Within, Alien: Isolation, and the new Silent Hill due to come out as well, the genre may be coming back.
Then I got to thinking, which will sell more? Evil Within is a new IP but from a well known director, while Alien: Isolation is based on a very popular franchise. I would have included the new Silent Hill but the other two games released very close to each other so they are essentially competing for top survival horror these Holidays.
I personally believe Alien: Isolation will sell more soley because it is from an established franchise and pays homeage to the first movie more so than any of the others.
So I ask you, which do you feel will sell more THIS YEAR, and which will sell more LIFE TIME?
