About 500k first week WW. Seems reasonable. I mean it was a huge launch games but usually sequels of launch games dont' sell as well.

The first Resistance wasn't bad, but it's pretty obvious a lot of its sales came from being a launch title. Look at how Red Steel sold a million on the Wii, or how Raving Rabbids 1 did better than its vastly superior sequel. Apparently it's also been bundled a bit.

The biggest problem with reaching 4 million is how crowded the whole genre is. Gears did well because there wasn't much competition during the 360's first year, and Halo is Halo, but Resistance 2 isn't standing out anywhere near as much as it should for that level of sales in 2008/9. Of course we still don't know much about it, so let's wait and see.

Resistance was a great game, and has its own install base already of over 2 million users. We will see what happens in 08.

1 mil first week!!!!! BTW i hate console shooters.

I was just on RFoM the other day at 8am EST and the servers page was full of 40 player TDM's and 16player CTF, even after 14 months after it came out. This game is huge and will sell atleast 700k WW first week. At prime time during a weekend i would expect this game still brings in as many players as CoD4.

hmmmm tough to say....im go with....ehhh(thinks)....650k WW....could be dead wrong but....we'll see

hahaha "not with that attitude". 2 million 1 week.

Alrighty....

700k

Japan:        37k

NA:             81k

Others:      94k

I'm expecting no more than 300k launch week. 150k in North America, 50k in Japan, 100k in Europe. That's the most it'll be seeing.
