so Cueil I'm a fanboy who needs "a kick in the face" for saying that the developer didn't say what some people here are bashing them about what they think they said ?

thx

 

 I'm not saying you do, but I'm sure if I looked back on some of your threads you've posted in I'll get an idea

They may be too focused on graphics. GOWIII already looks good. It's not necessary to best kz2.

"WAR is a racket. It always has been.

It is possibly the oldest, easily the most profitable, surely the most vicious. It is the only one international in scope. It is the only one in which the profits are reckoned in dollars and the losses in lives"---Maj. Gen. Smedley Butler

tbh I don't give a **** what you think of me but knock yourself out I don't have many threads



i hope jaffe is right, for the trailer did not blow me away graphically. i still have no doubt that the game will be awesome. even if they just stick to the formula forged by the previous two it will still be fun as hell.



art is the excrement of culture

If it does look better it will have absolutely nothing to do with being brought out later and everything to do with the amount of shit going on on screen.  One of the reasons that people were so amazed at KZ2 was largely in part to the fact that it did so much, but kept a high level of graphical fidelity.  However God of War doesn't have that strong of a brand name outside of the Sony fanbase.  A great deal of those unit sold were sold at the 20 dollar mark(GoW2 still sells well).  I don't expect that this game will do any better than KZ2 and the only reason it'll be close is because it'll launch with a larger install base.

rant time:  You guys(SDF) are sounding alot like the Xbots of last generation only you don't have the same reasons to.

 

 

This is wrong.  PS3 games are looking better and better as time goes by since launch and studios make their 2nd, 3rd game for the system, etc, and Sony and various studios share techniques.  Though of course, the overall man-hours put into a game's graphics is also important, and KZ2 presumably had a lot of that (though they had to build their engine for that game).  Amount going on on-screen is probably also a factor.

Why did you feel the need to deny that a game brought out later, but with similar amount onscreen, can't look better?  Resistance 1 says 'hi'.  There are and will be later games with similar amounts onscreen that look better.

I think it will definitly surpass KZ2 in sales. GOW2 sold abot 2.5 or .6 million i dont remember, and i dont think KZ2 will pass 3 million.

The KZ devs build their engine to the bone of the system.  There is obviously room for some improvements, but I think they hit in the up 85 to 90 precent of the reality of the systems preformance.  I also think that the only way you get noticable improvements from a game that hasn't had the same level of intensive programming as KZ2 is through less things on screen at the same time... much like God of War 3 will have(or not have depending on how you look at it).

GoW 1 sold 3mil+ on a heavily pirated console with a lot of competition from other games

GoW 2 was released AFTER many ppl had put away their Ps2s and started the new gen


GoW 3 will be released as the most anticipated game for Ps3, with no piracy.... Im thinking 4mil in it's first year.

GOW 2 was released when very few people had picked up a next generation console and furthermore every PS3 was able to play that game as well. Its not like the PS3 had a massive launch that GOW 2 was unable to compete with.

 



Tease.

Wow..are we really this bored? Aren't there better things we can be reporting and reading? I don't even understand the point in this being said.

People pointed toward a 'decreasing' sales trends in Metal Gear Solid games, and said MGS4 would release with a lower install base and therefore would sell quite low.  Their predictions failed, MGS4 bucked the trend and it still has all it's budget-priced sales to make.  Just saying.  GoW 3 could well beat GoW2 in sales.
