It's going to be overshadowed by Pokemon

First week

America: 650,000
Others: 200,000
Japan 40,000

Total: 890,000

LTD

America: 1.4
Others: 1
Japan: 70K

Total 2.4 million

Please note that ps2 had a huge base, even so it didnt manage to sell very great. PS3 selling like the Gamecube so I dont expect it to overpass 4 million. Lucky if it manages even 3 million.

Wait that does't make any sense about the pokemon bit? The main group of people that are buying Pokemon wouldn't even think about buying GoWIII. There both two completely different genres on two completely different systems why would that effect sales for either game?

Also we know userbase really doesn't matter for big games like Final Fantasy. Look at MGS4, it's approaching 5 million on a system with 5 times less hardware then the PS2, yet MGS4 has outsold MGS3 and is going to be close to MGS1 and 2.

Completely off with the pokemon statement... two very different markets...

And the ps2 comparison is completely off as well... gow2 came out after the ps3 and xbox360 systems were out and the ps2 had a massive game library...

This gow game is coming out at the starting part of the ps3 era and the library of games is quite small in comparison...

Plus the hype behind this one is night and day compared to the previous ones...

Look at MGS4 as an example... it sold over 5 million of the ps3 when mgs3 didn’t with a much larger ps2 market...

My predicition:

First Week---1.27 million

Americas: 900K

Others: 350K

Japan: 20K

LT--- 3.75 million

Americas: 2.5 million

Others 1.2 million

Japan: 50K



First Week

America: 1.1 million

Others: 450K

Japan: 33K

Total:

LTD

America: 4 million

Others: 2 million

Japan: 65K

Total: million

too lazy to add :P
