Perhaps many were turned off by the controls of the demo. They may not realize that the "lag" some experienced has been fixed.

Attach rates my friend, attach rates. PS3 owners do not buy a lot of games, so every game suffers. Give it time, maybe it'll have good legs.

Actually I believe that PS3 owners dont buy a lot of retail games but do buy a lot of the PSN titles. I personally have about 60 PSN titles and 13 PS3 titles.

anecdotes ftw ?

I would speculate that half of the 360 sales are from people wanting a heater.

See, I can make idiotic claims too. Richard, you are a terrible troll.

Microsoft hasn't marketed the 360 as a heater - Sony however has marketed the ps3 as a blu-ray player.

Now, which % of sold ps3 are just used as BR players, heck if anyone in this board knows.

but they have marketered as a massager and media center if you know what i mean.

and also GTA4 sold the almost same amount of the 360 version.

GTA4? what does it have to do with this.

If you are trying to start a multiplatform split discussion, it's not gonna end well for you dude.

Between 2.5 million to 3 million ltd sales for Killzone 2 is highly probable. 3 to 4 million is stretching it. 4 million copies or more copies of this game sold ltd is virtually impossible. MGS 4 and only COD games are capable of achieving those sort of numbers based on their huge popularity (fan bases) and well establish brand names.

what if we saw heavy bundling in the coming months, especially the big holiday, do you think 3-4 is still stretching and 4+ is virtually impossible?

I do not see KZ2 being a bundled game for extended periods of time. All these new PS3 games should be bundled with PS3 console one at a time for a limited time. Killzone 2 will have to sell at its full price for a year then it might get a price drop and end up as a classic PS3 title after 12 months from its release date.

2 or 3 average games bundled with consoles are very common. Added value in eyes of consumer. 2 or 3 games are better than one game, regardless of quality.
