Forums - Sales Discussion - Will the PS3 version of Prototype outsell Infamous?

JRPG on 13 June 2009

So which PS3 game will do better? Considering how Infamous set the bar pretty low i think Prototype will outsell it.

 

Lets say first week sales, because i think Infamous will be bundled in Europe eventually (like every PS3 exclusive).

Infamous based on npd's numbers.

Set the bar low?

infamous did almost 250K first week (sold 175K according to NDP) for a new IP thats really good, Prototype will do less in my opinon, it's multiplat and it's a new IP if I'm not mistaken.

Not a chance... Infamous sold nearly 180k first in four days in the USA (according to NPD). Considering how it's an PS3 exclusive and how Prototype is unknown to pretty much every single non hardcore gamers, I really doubt this is going to happen.

And Fire Emblem should sell 3 million copies, this is not about who should win (Prototype), its about who will win.

So for a new IP thats was hyped and market well, only 175k in the first week is good?

Hyped ? Infamous wasn't hyped at all, in fact, most people were surprised about the lack of Infamous hype before the game launched.

Well it sure seemed hyped to me.
