Forums - Sales - Resident Evil 5 sales will suck??

Well, you have to remember too, that the current next-gen consoles don't have even close to the installed base the other consoles do that you are talking about. That makes a pretty big difference.

It should come out on the Wii, in all seriousness.

 Somehow, I don't see the install base issue being a major problem for DMC4, COD4, or GTAIV thus far.



Back from the dead, I'm afraid.

I expect high sales. 4 mill for each console.



Ynwa.

Zucas, i think people don't buy it rather than other shooters is because it would scare the shit out of people :P

Its going to sell very well. Much higher then this extremely conservative estimation.



i don't want to buy a PS3/Xbox360 for RE5 :(,

 

POST 600! 



I will buy a PS3 or 360 for RE5. I am afraid though that the series is becoming more and more shooter and less and less survivor horror.

RE4 was amazing, but it was too easy. Too much ammo, too many guns, way too much herbs.
The old/style RE´s were an absolute challenge to beat. I hope RE5 will be more survival, less shooting, but since co/op was announced I´m afraid it won´t be that way.

OT: RE5 will sell more than 2,3 million. I think somewhere around 4 million.



If DMC4 is any indication, this game will do very well.

Sorry but Resident Evil isn't as big as people like to think..

MAybe it wasn't...but i'm guessing after RE4..it's on another level..especialy since RE4 bought in newer gamers.

And this is just a early sales estimate. Everyone knows it's going to sell more than 2.3 million. It's on two platforms and there is more hype around it than all other resi's.

But i think they mean(someon else has pointed this out) during their fiscal year. Meaning RE5 to sell 2.3(both platforms combined) in the first month. Which i can see it being done pretty easily...providing it's a worldwide launch.
