"I predict 92% on Gamerankings, 650,000 copies 1st week and 2.9 million lifetime."

- Currently it has 91% on GR, sold 715,000 copies 1st week and is dropping off the charts fast. So I say 2.6 mill lifetime.

 

ABSOLUTLEY MASSIVE PREDICTION!

I predicted 550K first week - and think I was pretty close.

I said without bundle, 2M.

With bundling? 2.75M.

Oh, and here are some awesome predictions:

I love how Madskillz announces that he's going to bookmark the thread and then makes predictions that are almost bound to fail. Are we so used to PS3 games selling below expectations that many of us actually believe it will sell in the area of the first Killzone? The hype is huge, the reviews are turning out well, and the graphics are groundbreaking for consoles. As much as I hate to draw comparisons, this all bears a strong resemblance to the first Gears of War. Some people might say that the hype is only centered in the internet, but how often is that not the case anyways? I don't remember Gears of War having much hype outside the internet until just before launch, nor Call of Duty 4 or Resistance: Fall of Man. Unless you ask enough people, you'll never really know. I've heard several people discussing Killzone 2, and the Superbowl ad will be shown to millions of Americans fitting the shooter demographic (males 16-30).

As for why your 2 million lifetime prediction is insane, see my posts in that thread as well as my earlier post in this one.

Dude, it's my prediction. So what if it fails. And is my response to the OT even worthy of discussion? Am I that much on the PS3 bots radar that I get not only one, but three different responses?

Thanks for making my day, music. If you want, how about I don't post in anything PS3 related from this day forth? It seems if I have an opinion, and it's mine, and it doesn't vibe with the rest of PS3 folks, I am called out for it.

Please - grow up and realize everyone has an opinion, regardless of how ignorant it may seem.

Killzone 2 will outsell COD 4 or MGS 4 in sales ltd(Both over 4 million sellers on PS3). I do not think so. Matching Uncharted in sales is possible I guess ~ 3 million sales ltd.

You're the one that brought up an old thread you bookmarked only because of how silly you thought some of the predictions were.  I just called out the silliness of your own.

I don't really see the difference between the two.

As proven above, I think we see who has failed. You've been debunked already, I see no need to further argue uselessly, but oh well. Your prediction is unrealistic....period.

Thats your opinion that his prediction fails, I could say the same for yours but I won't because thats not why I opened this thread!

 

2 million is about as justified as 4 million ... what if it settles around 25k - 30k a week ... will it reach 4 million then?

3.5-4 million Life to Date. Resistance sold 3.56 million as a launch title, no reason this can't sell just as much.

R was heavily bundled and just because one game made that amount doesnt mean another will, why don't you go look at the numbers it has already done and then make a prediction.

 

 

I'm not gonna argue against a guy who helped me get my Fable 2 doll achivement. So I'll keep what you said in consideration but I have to wait a few more weeks and see what happens. How far will it drop i n the next two weeks is the big question, and how well will it sell this holiday season.

Sorry didn't mind to sound harsh (and forgot who you were for a second! sorry!) I thought you were basing your prediction off the back of Resistence, I see you put a bit more thought into it though, thanks :)

Between 3M and 3.5M. I believe that being the best FPS on the platform will give it legs with both current and future owners of the PS3.
While not having CoD's brand name, it will live by word of mouth among the less informed buyers because of its memorable presentation and great multiplayer.

O jesus christ people, shove off already from madskillz. It's his prediction and it's not that big a deal to make a fuss over it.

Really now, you guys are acting like children. if you want to comment someones guesswork on sales wait until the final numbers are in and say three words : told you so. then we won't have to put up with this whole crap every single time a ps3 blockbuster or halo-killer game arrives.



If i lose access to this profile as well....I'm done with this site.....You've been warned!!.....whoever you are...

Happy Wii60 user. Me and my family are a perfect example of where hardcore meets casual and together mutate into something awesome.
