I predict it will look like this:

First week:

Sunset Overdrive - 400k

LBP3 - 700k

Bayonetta 2 - 200k

 

Lifetime:

Sunset Overdrive - 2.5 million

LBP3 - 4 million

Bayonetta 2 - 800k

 

This is without bundles!

Note: Bayonetta 2 comes with the frist game as well. LBP was never super popular but with the PS4 drought this will be a huge hit. Sunset overdrive looks badass but will not be popular with dude bros. It will appeal more to the hardcore gamer and young teens.

So far sunset overdrive got more pre order than lbp3 and bayonetta I'm sure it will outsell both of them by miles

The worst game, of course, Sunset Overdrive, as always... =/



My grammar errors are justified by the fact that I am a brazilian living in Brazil. I am also very stupid.

where are your numbers? anyway your just talking bs because LBP3 can't have PreOrders because its just been announced -.-

LBP 6mil

SO 1mil

Bayonetta 1mil



I'd say the OP's numbers are realistic. Maybe a little bit high for LBP. Can't wait for that game though!

That's not how it works. We could just as well say Watch dogs >>>>>>>>> Halo5 in preorders based on certain dates. SO has been announced for quite some time, LBP3 less than a week.

 

By end of June LBP will lead in preorders.

Sunset overdrive was not even charting in the top 30 preorder games on vgc's own America's preorder charts. Considering the US remains the x1's best market I do not think this suggests a great opening week. If it scores high on meta and has good word of mouth I think it might do almost 2 million lifetime.

Little big planet has always been a slow burning game in terms of sales. It tends to sell decently for a long time. I am guessing it will sell better than 2 because there are still few games on pS4 period, counting both 1st party and 3rd party.  3.5-4 million

Bayonetta 2 will probably sell pretty poorly.



I would have to agree with your ranking of the three games sales potential.



This is the Game of Thrones

Where you either win

or you DIE

FW:

Sunset Overdrive - 500K
LittleBigPlanet 3 - 750K-900K
Bayonetta 2 - 500K-600K

LT:

Sunset Overdrive - 1m-1.5m
LittleBigPlanet 3 - 3m-4.25m
Bayonetta 2 - 1m-1.5m

Sunset Overdrive is releasing against tough competition and probably wont sell well as a result, which is sad as it looks fantastic. I hope alot of the XBOne population pick it up instead of Advanced Warfare which releases a week later.



I would generally agree with the ballpark of the op but only if LBP3 is seen to be as good as the first 2 LBPs. Otherwise if Sunset Overdrive gets better than 85 meta it could end up selling best. Though if SO does less than 80 meta I can see it drop to third and B2 come in second.
