Forums - Sony - New Trailer for Sorcery - BTW guess first week sales!!!

its shaping up nicely. you can read more about it in the playstation blog

i say betwen 80k-100k
sadly the hype is very low and its a new IP for a way smaller userbase than a normal PS3 game... hope i am flat out wrong!

agreed, it is shaping up nicely. can't wait to play.



Need a reason to use my move controller, but I am not sure this is one of them. It looks good, but I still question the budget of this game and that I could justify a purchase of this over a rental.

lucky us, that could read reviews and see lots of videos on youtube about it before we buy... i too, need a lot more details to justify a purchase, but for now we can only see this trailers. hope to be as good as it sounds.

Regardless of how good is the game, it is releasing in a bad time when the hype for PS Move is dead.

Have been looking forward to this since it was revealed at E3 2010, hopefully the wait was worth it.



Finally a reason for people to buy the move!



I have this pre-ordered and am looking forward to it. I would agree with most of the above posts - sales of 100k approx.

To generate hype sony really should have shown new details at last years E3. The vast majority of people probably dont even know this game exists or have lost interest by now. One way to increase hype would be to delay launch till holiday season 2012 and publicise the heck out of it at E3 2012.

I think Sorcery will likely sell 100k opening and around 400-500k life time. Honestly only the absolute hardest core Sony fans are going to pick this up. Move is no where near popular enough to push a million or more sales. Chances are Sony will ditch Move after this games release. I doubt Sony will invest much money in Move in the future.

Hype is low because Sony forgot to advertise the game's most exciting feature: the unique Move controls. They should've showed videos of how accurate the magic wand is simulated. This game is PERFECT for that.

A Move from left to right and BAM, you have a fire wall. Small flicks and BAM, you throw magic balls. Kinda like what Kinect does in their ads, but not that intrusive.

EDIT: My guess is 98k first week.

Hype-o-meter, from least to most hyped:  the Last Story, Twisted Metal, Mass Effect 3, Final Fantasy XIII-2, Final Fantasy Versus XIII, Playstation ViTA

bet with Mordred11 that Rage will look better on Xbox 360.
