Killzone 2 has long been the center of a lot of attention by hardcore PS3 fans for it's ultra-realistic graphics and deep multi-player gameplay. However, the title's popularity even among the masses is becoming increasingly more obvious.  Amazon just announced earlier today that Killzone 2 was the number one most pre-ordered PS3 game and the #2 most pre-ordered video game total.  This puts it above other various blockbuster releases due out soon, including Street Fighter IV(PS3/360 - #8), Halo Wars(360 - #7), and even Capcom's highly anticipated Resident Evil 5(PS3/360 - #4).

Killzone 2 is surpassed only by Mario Power Tennis, which is due out for the Wii in March.

Killzone 2 is a first person shooter and sequel to the 2004 title of the same name.  Developed by Guerilla Games exclusively for the PS3, Killzone 2 will hit shelves late in February, on the 27th.  

Stay tuned for more info on the title as the release draws near.

 

 

what's all the excitement about Killzone 2 for anyway?

 

over

 

 

 

perhaps more gamecube Wii-makes are to followed since MPT seems to be a bona-fide hit.

that was unexpected!



thekitchensink on 24 January 2009

Like I've said many times on these forums, Amazon is not a reliable metric for the popularity of a game.

That said, this is completely unexpected--are there any special deals going on there with regard to MPT?



Could I trouble you for some maple syrup to go with the plate of roffles you just served up?

Wow I might actually have pick MPT up after seeing this.



Pacman taught people to run around in dark rooms munching on pills while listening to repettive techno music and for that I somewhat idolise him.

Here's the full list sent out by Amazon - http://gonintendo.com/?p=70433

10. Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars - DS
9. Pokemon Platinum - DS
8. Street Fighter IV - Playstation 3
7. Halo Wars - Xbox360
6. Warhammer Dawn Of War II - PC
5. Empire: Total War - PC
4. Resident Evil 5 - Playstation 3
3. Pikmin - Wii
2. Killzone 2 - Playstation 3
1. Mario Power Tennis - Wii




Nice to know that Pikmin will get a chance to become established as a major Nintendo franchise, a power seller...cause it's a really good game.


This should bring good news for other games that were ignored in the past.

OMG Wii has 3 times the userbase of the PS3. Spin much? Or do you really think Mario Power Tennis is game of the year potential like RES 5 and Killzone 2?

My thoughts on the matter.

Weird too since usually Amazon runs bias towards the PS3 in sales numbers and not against.  As can be seen by the lack of 360 titles there.
