I think you're putting way too much emphasis on metascore affecting sales.

Imho it sells 2-3 million regardless of score. It's been awhile since the PS4 has had a big exclusive at retail and the hype/marketing push is huge for this one. I was setting some stuff up in a Walmart on Tuesday and a Sony rep was actually there almost training the employees on what The Order was and how they should sell it to people. He looked a lot like Jet Tequila or whatever from Cutthroat Kitchen. But I have never seen a Sony rep push something like that. Was almost like watching a Nintendo rep in action.

Just goes to show, Sony is really pushing this one. Maybe they see it as a series no matter how the first one goes. The first Killzone didn't fare too well but it got sequels.

which is why I have it selling between 2-3 million unless it get a very bad score or a very good score. A very bad score means the game is probably bad and word of mouth will also follow. A very good score (80+) and the game becomes a must have and has much better potential than 3 mil.
