Forums - Sales - Will Gears 2 outsell Gears 1? Could Resistance 2 outsell Gears 2?

I believe Gears 2 may not outsell Gears 1 total of 5.2 million sales. I predict Gears 2 will finish at around 4 million LTD. 1.5 million LTD for first week of Gears 2. Market has been over saturated with generic shooters on X360 that are substitutes to Gears 2.

Having seen E3 show. Resistance 2 looked far superior than Gears 2. Gears 2 looked like Gears 1.5. Resistance 2 was a massive improvement upon RFOM and it looked superior than Gears 2.

Resistance 2 should have a huge boost on PS3 hardware consoles and it will eventually sell more copies than Gears of War 2. PS3 games have longer legs than X360 games. GTA IV on PS3 is starting to outsell GTA IV on X360 and over time GTA IV on PS3 will over take the X360 version of GTA IV.

Initially Gears 2 will outsell Resistance 2 for the first month or two but by end of 2009 Resistance 2 sales would of over taken Gears 2 sales. PS3 would also be in front of X360 in worldwide console sales.

Anyway if my predictions come true it would be great news for Sony and PS3.

Gears of War 2 will outsell Resistance 2 hands down.

Market has been over saturated with generic shooters on X360 that are substitutes to Gears 2. CODIV/V is more of a substitute for RFOM2 than it ever will be for GOW2, for example. Gears has definately got its own style. If either of them were called generic, I would put my money on it being RFOM rather than GOW. If you look past the fancy guns on RFOM 2 theres very little difference between it and CODIV. Sure it has some nice gameplay modes but I would hardly call those special enough to mention in 5 years time. Gears actually does have a special way that you play it, its different from the other shooters you play and its definately good, I picked the game up last week and its aged quite well. Its actually excellent which is strange because I thought it would suck given some of the comments on Vgchartz.

Having seen E3 show. Resistance 2 looked far superior than Gears 2. Gears 2 looked like Gears 1.5. Resistance 2 was a massive improvement upon RFOM and it looked superior than Gears 2. Wow, if your opinion wasn't so biased I would take it seriously.

Resistance 2 should have a huge boost on PS3 hardware consoles and it will eventually sell more copies than Gears of War 2. PS3 games have longer legs than X360 games. GTA IV on PS3 is starting to outsell GTA IV on X360 and over time GTA IV on PS3 will over take the X360 version of GTA IV. Errrr those are big statements...

Initially Gears 2 will outsell Resistance 2 for the first month or two but by end of 2009 Resistance 2 sales would of over taken Gears 2 sales. PS3 would also be in front of X360 in worldwide console sales. So what you're really saying is that they're gonna give the game away for free and thats how its gonna end up ahead of GOW2?

Anyway if my predictions come true it would be great news for Sony and PS3.

 

 



Tease.

Not on topic, what does LTD means?

On topic: G2 will probably sell as good as the first.
G2 will outsell R2 unless it gets bundled with the PS3 for christmas.

Gears 2 will outsell Gears 1..the game was very popular, all that's going to do is pique the interest of those who either played Gears 1 late or not at all, and saw how popular it was. Had it been hyped up and been a bust, well then no..

Resistance 2 will outsell Resistance 1 for the same reason.

Gears 2 will outsell Resistance 2 if for no other reason than simply number of consoles in circulation.

To me, those 2 games are hard to compare. I'm sure fans of Resistance are just as big of fans of the game as fans of Gears were with that game, theres just more fans of Gears because the game is available to 5.5 million more people. If PS3 had 20 million consoles out right now, I'd probably honestly say it would be dead even, give or take a few hundred thousand.



Gears 2 will probaly outsell Resistance 2 and it will sell like gears 1



 

Gears 2 will outsell gears 1 very very badly. This time around it has proven hype since its a sequel.

Resistence 2 outselling it? Come on man. Thats like asking it the ocean is gonna levitate today.



GOTY Contestants this year: Dead Space 2, Dark Souls, Tales of Graces f. Everything else can suck it.

Gears of War > Gears of War 2 >>>> Resistance 2



How many cups of darkness have I drank over the years? Even I don't know...

 

Gears 2 will destroy Resistance 2's sales even though Resistance 2's sales should be decent.
