While I understand your thinking, and I'd have actually agreed with you at one point. But that was before I saw the 7.6 million sales for Horizon. I see no reason at all that GoW couldn't outsell Horizon. It's a more iconic IP, it reviewed substantially better, and It currently has more preorders than Uncharted 4 according to NPD insiders. What a franchise sells on PS3 is absolutely no indication of what it will do on PS4. A 4 million+ seller on PS3 was a megaton, reserved for GoW, Uncharted, Gran Turismo, MGS4, where as Bloodborne will even manage to do that on PS4, and that's a souls game. Given that a first party game on PS4 is critically acclaimed and has good marketing, it should do about twice the numbers of a game in the same franchise on PS3. |
I think 8m for God of War because GoW seems more like most sales are from North America while Horizon did really good WW and in NA.
