This is good, considering it most games in the US release on Tuesday.

I think the data is from "first" day sales in North America and "not" for a full week (seeing it came out friday and it is only sunday currently) For one day it is fantastic to sell 750,000. Not may games have enjoyed such a sale in one day. Let's not let our inner-fanboy get us in trouble.

It includes the Other sales as well which was out for three days...

Former something....

Well it "still" is not a full week in most people's book and we still have not heard from sony as of yet. Either way I am thinking it is between this number and 1 million and either one is very good to me.

Its very good numbers

but its bad when you compare it with Gears of War(1)

How much did Gears 1 sell the first week?

Gears 1: 910,000 in only 6,000,000 xbox360

Kz2 : 750,000 in 21,000,000 ps3............

It has sold on par to what I expected. PS3 owners love their shooters and 750 k is a good first week start for Kill Zone 2. It puts this game in the top 3 first week sellers on PS3 of all time.

It's a good result, not an amazing one but a very good openning for Killzone 2, it should have some decent sales in few weeks and i reckon it will do fine lifetime, GTA IV and MGS4 did not have strong legs, killzone will probably follow this pattern.

Nowhere near Gears, but i dont think that many people expected it to be in the same league sales wise. No hardware boost a expected as well, overall i think it was a solid/good launch for KZ2 but nothing incredible (saleswise)

Gears only sold 910k in it's first week, that's only a 150k difference.

gears are a new ip ,in only 6,m x360 ...kill zone 2 is an second game in 21,mps3 ,sorry but gears kick ass

HE meant that by the time Gears released, it was in a userbase of 6 million X360, and it was a new franchise(?)

Compare to Kz2, which is the 2nd game of the franchise(?) and with an userbase of 21 ps3.....

So gears wins the battle
