Lifetime sales would take too long, how about you ballpark a first week and we bet off that?

@TX

wow, you can tell based off a video and a blurry picture which game will be better.  Psychic?

notic i said "im willing to bet" i never its definently gonna be better. my projections are also based off of the fact that i played both ico games on the PS2 and i only liked shadow of the collosus, and even that was only a little bit (seriously nothing to do in between fights, except look at stuff). the other one was pretty bad IMO. iv never not liked a zelda game. i guess i should hav stated that previously.

@Torillian
Err, would it be ok if we based it on pedigree, and how the lowest rated 3-d Zelda(Majora's Mask) is rated higher than Shadow of the Colossus ? This is, of course, due to not having played either game, which is why this thread is pretty pointless.

Well if we're basing this off opinion then I would say that I enjoyed Ico and SotC better than the Zelda's I've played.  But that's because I'm a sucker for story and both of those games got more emotion out of me than any Zelda game ever has. 

@Chrono

sure, you can make the argument it'll probably end up a better Metacritic score, but a difference of 4% is nothing to hang your hat on.

@Torillian
Im not a big fan of comparing MC or GR scores either, Just saying ,it makes more sense than basing it on a minute long vid or a blurry pic.
And i love how originally MM2 thought it was a RPG and still made that ridiculous statement. Greatest RPG ever? Yeah, right!!

oh no question there, the statement is ridiculous in every sense of the word.

yes people who doesn't like RPGs will become FANATIKZ thanks to a TRAILER and DA SOUNDTRACK!

....people became "fanatic" of a game or genre AFTER playing said game. your assumption lacks too much logic that it hurts and is so dettached from reality that is very sad.

I love how a lot of the people(lawl, not really) in here are like "best game ever! just look at the awesome graphics!!!!!" kind of reminds me of my teen years with computer games back then, and I learned some hard lessons about spending money on games I can't return. of course, there are a lot of you sensible guys in this thread as well, kudos!

Is this game a joke or something?

This is as psychic as claiming The Last Guardian as the greatest RPG of all time based off a video trailer... I'm pretty sure Agent will be the greatest action game of all time based on the logo released and the previous games made by R*...
