It's pretty obvious. The best they can hope for is for a Valve like support where they patch all types of goodness in the game. Honestly, I'm not expecting it and as I said, this will struggle to sell half of what Killzone 2 sold.


so 1 million tops, right because people don't like cutscenes transitions. 


Lack of online co op is a bigger issue than anything else. In this day and age it'll kill their sales, especially with word of mouth destroying it. It's in GG and Sony's best interest to have a co op patch within 30 days of launch so they can at least avoid long term bad word of mouth and get some sales.

Word of mouth isn't destroying it, quite the contrary actually. Straightforward, it has an online, it has co-op, and it has a decent enough single player to carry it to at least KZ2's sales levels. 


I highly doubt it. All KZ2 players hated KZ3 beta, lack of online co op on a FPS 2011 is really stupid and no one is going to want to buy a gimped product. That's the cold, hard truth. The demo also left a lot to be desired and to put the last nail in the coffin, a major AAA FPS from none other than Epic Games is coming out on the same day.

how is the online co-op for bulletstorm?

That's irrelevant, the bottom line is it'll eat up on Killzone 3's sales.

 you said the game was gimped, based on the lack of online co-op then you bring up another game which you call AAA, now once again, how's the online co-op on that game?

It's more Bullet Storm PS3 is going to suffer because of Killzone 3.

Things did occasionally spaz out but no worse than in most other games. It was nowhere near as bad as people make it out to be. You know... if I didn't know better, I'd almost think GAF likes to bitch for the sake of bitching!

Well yeah.  It's a requirement in the ToS.

Anyway, they must've been on to something.  I remember an interview with Cliffy B from sometime late last year that dicsussed all the issues people had with Gears 2, going into detail abotu why they were moving to dedicated servers and whatnot.

I'm pretty sure the underlined comment/fake prediction was an attempt to troll.

Someone offered to make a wager on that prediction and there was zero response.

If it was a serious prediction, I'll go in for that too. One month ban if KZ3 sells half of what KZ2 sold.

In regards to Bulletstorm, I wager the PS3 version will struggle to sell half of what it will on the Xbox. Most will be buying KZ3 instead.

I've only had a chance to play Gears 2 co-op, but from what I've read on gaf and heard from friends, the online competitive multiplayer was pretty broken, thanks to lag and other things.  All the complaining is why they're moving to dedicated servers and having a beta for Gears 3.

Things did occasionally spaz out but no worse than in most other games. It was nowhere near as bad as people make it out to be. You know... if I didn't know better, I'd almost think GAF likes to bitch for the sake of bitching!

Boom!

Anyways, I was moreso disappointed with R2's co-op campaign. Everything about it just wasn't very good.

Oh really. So when Battlefield 3, Modern Warfare 3 and Crysis 2 launches nobody will want to buy them because they are gimped products for not having online co op lmao. They don't even have offline co op. Then you want to compare it to Bulletstorm, a game that wasn't even listed in the top 20 american pre order charts last week for the PS3 lol. Your just a hater

  • Insomniac:  Released an incredibly underwhelming Resistance 2 after only two years, and switched to a three year dev cycle for Resistance 3.
  • Epic:  Released a somewhat underwhelming Gears 2 after only two years (it was mainly the multiplayer that had issues), and switched to a three year dev cycle for Gears 3.

There goes your credibility! Both of those games ruled.

I agree on one end. Gears 2 was better than the first in every way possible.

Resistance 2 did suck balls though.

I really don't understand why so many people say that. Granted, Resistance 2 was one of the first PS3 games I played, so maybe I was still intoxicated with the novelty of the thing. And I never played the first Resistance, so it could have been an awesome game and maybe Resistance 2 was just a huge letdown by comparison. But damn it, Resistance 2 was fucking fun!

I also don't get all the hate for Gears 2 multiplayer. I really enjoyed it, whereas the first one was just a boring shotgunpalooza to me.

Aye most of the people who say Resistance sucked havn't even played the game. They just took what fans said about the game when comparing it to the first and ran with it.

The bosses were very big, and that's pretty much the same thing as being very good!

All I know is that that Kevin Butler commercial made K3 look so hot that I masturbated to it.  I may pick it up regardless.

You masturbated to the K3 Commercial?
