120k first day sales
1st week sales 200k (japan)

i don't really know what to think to be honest. I think it'll either be a HUGE launch in japan and my numbers are really low or it could be smaller due to bad publicity we'll see soon i guess


bad publiciy?! I take it you hvae never seen japan home beta, this game has its own theatre. plus ads are everywhere. More people were inside this theatre than any other movie in the multiplex. Plus japanese playstation store has videos galore. Many people are excited about this game due to good publicity

no your quite right i have better things to do than search the internet for japans home beta to see what their watching. As i stated that was simply my guess at sales and from personal experience Sony does a terrible job with publicity so i was assuming they were following suit.  My mistake



300k 1st week, 150-200k 1st day...



I had 150k first day, 200k first week I think, but after hearing about the famitsu review, I am going to change it. The problem with the review is that anything under a 30 is considered shovelware or crap in japan. It does not matter if the review sounds ok.

My guess: 80k first day, 150k lifetime in Japan

140k first day, 200k first week to play it on the safe side :)

I'm going to guess 220K, just because I want to be different.



  • 2010 MUST Haves: WKC, Heavy Rain, GoWIII, Fable III, Mass Effect 2, Bayonetta, Darksiders, FFXIII, Alan Wake, No More Heroes 2, Fragile Dreams: FRotM, Trinity: SoZ, BFBC2.
  • Older Need To Buys: Super Mario Bros. Wii, Mario Kart Wii, Deadspace, Demon's Souls, Uncharted 2.

There is definitely more to list that I want, but that's my main focus there.
