Forums - Sales Discussion - Predict Killzone 2 first week sales!

@Pezus: yes!

- It's a FPS (and we know how FPS are loved this gen ...)
- It's the most beautifull console game ever
- It's a console exclusive
- It will be well advertized (2 million pounds for the UK alone).

So yeah, sales are way too underestimated.

And BTW, the game will be a hit too in japan (for a fps!). See preorders^^



Around the Network

i would say about 800k



800,000 WW



Some other first week debuts for comparison (all on PS3):

Grand Theft Auto 4: 2.5m
Metal Gear Solid 4: 1.7m
Call of Duty Modern War: 735k
Gran Turismo 5 Prologue: 640k
Pro Evo Soccer 09: 614k
FIFA 09: 510k
Devil May Cry 4: 519k
Call of Duty 4: 445k
Madden 09: 436k
Resistance 2: 403k

That's not intended to be a complete list either, more of a snapshot of how some other games have fared. I would guess that the total for Killzone will probably be roughly around the latest Call of Duty (~700-800k), due to the similar demographics of the games. I would be surprised if Killzone were to debut over a million; it's not that well known outside of the gaming community, and it's not part of an established franchise.

End of 2008 totals: Wii 42m, 360 24m, PS3 18.5m (made Jan. 4, 2008)

just out of curiosity, what was the budget?

7 bajillion monies.



As for sales, I think it will fall between 800k and 1200k.... so likely about 1 million.
