Forums - Sony - Predict Haze's 1st week.

I don't see how this game can do well...

Bad timing for release
Delays have killed is hype/positive press
Very little advertising
Quality seems iffy, even though its Free Radical

I'd say 150k for the first week, but lower than that wouldn't be surprising.

Oops. Well, forget Heavenly Sword then.

But do you see Folklore or Lair in the charts? No. They dropped from it ages ago. And those games are less than a year old.

Im not trolling. My predictions were right in the past for many PS3 games, including Folklore, Lair, Ratchet and Clark.

It's not my fault that Haze is a generic shooter that will flop.


 That made me lol. I dunno if that was a typo or not, but just in case, its Ratchet and Clank.

R&C is also a million seller already lol

look at uncharted people said it floped the first week it came out and now it has sold 1.5m and will reach 2m easy :)


your just saying haze is a flop cuz it was its not being made for the 360 anymore

sorry if microsft fucked up by not makeing HDD in all system or adding in blu-ray.........im also sorry 1/3th of all 360 get RROD

He is right. Me and him had a bet on R&C sales, and he won.

Haze could do around 650-700k coming into the holiday season and push a million by Q1 2009.

190,ooo copies worldwide 1st week.

750,000 copies in it's fist year.

 

 

so your saying that the game will sell 190 in 1 week but then fall flat on its face for the next 52 weeks?

 

it will sell 560k copies?

 

dude your saying the game will fall and only AVG 11k a week! come on the game will sell way better than that.......it will probly avg 50k a week for a few weeks it will sell 1m in about 6 weeks

 

but come on your saying it will 190k and then avg 11k every week around that!

 


Well... do you see Folklore, Heavenly Sword or Lair anywhere on the chart?


I do not see your reasoning here... First off Folklore only opened with a 24k week and Lair only opened with a 70k week and both games are missing European numbers. Also all of these game released on a system with like 7million less consoles....

Why compare these games

Also please revise your predictions. It will take a miracle for the 360 to sell 8 mil more consoles for the year... or if you think the 360 will sell 8 mil more it would be a shocker that the system selling more than it week in and week out would do 2 mil less....

Folklore wasn't supposed to become a big seller, I'll give you that. But Lair is a fair comparison. Not that I think Haze will be flawed in terms of control mechanics and frame rate, but Lair was supposed to be at least a semi-big seller.

Btw, I upped my predicition for Haze. I actually believe it will sell more than most of the other predicitions in this very thread (1.25 mill in it's 1st year).

I won't revise my predicitons in the sign, that would feel like cheating, although I admit it's clear already that they won't be fulfilled. That means the PS3, which I believe will sell nearly 13 million in 2008. The X360 isn't selling as bad as you claim though, actually it's on track to sell 10 million this year.
