When is the PSASBR event taking place?



Around the Network

No TGS surprise FF character announcement - my prediction just became a little weaker.  But... I still think it'll be the bigger game of that list.

And you know what game will be released with this?

Yeah! That's right! Assassin's Cre... what???

Stop trying to make my prediction fail Sony!

It already happened 5 hours ago. But it was very minor with nothing new announced - and enraged a lot o people by HOW minor it was.



EDIT: False!

Sorry for the catastrophic "UPDATE!" :)

it's just NFS Most Wanted, nothing big, or even tiny in the japanese market. Doesn't change my prediction!
Some of you people made me think, but 200k is possible, imo. 300k is my maximum, though.



It will be a decent seller at best wordwide.
I don't think Sony is expecting much from this in Japan. It is western focused you know...

I know that. Doing good in japan does not mean it'll be a best selling game.

But: Lack of any serious concorrence for the system (there's almost 1 million systems out there, they have to buy something during the holidays - and not everyone is a fan of AKB 51, I suppose) + good game, with universal gameplay + japanese characters + big marketing push (maybe) = decent sales imo. Anything over, or close to 200k is a success for vit.

The only thing still missing missing is the marketing push. it's VERY important, though.
