It wont get anywhere close to this number.

Not really. I doubt it.

The PS3 fanbase buys a variety of games, so it should do 3M sales.

No, the PS3 fanbase loooooooves shooters... Why else would Sony release so many?

Actually they buy the shooters at about the same rate as Xbox 360 owners.

I never said they didn't like shooters.

I said they dont JUST buy shooters.

Why would that need qualification? Noone accuses them (people who own TVs, like long walks on the beach and alone time with PS3s) of liking just shooters.



Tease.

While I think it's POSSIBLE for Uncharted 2 to reach 5 million, there is no argument to be made: it will not be the first, if it does. I think MGS4 will reach 5 million first, or quite possibly GT5. I also think GOW3 is more likely to reach 5 million than Uncharted 2, but I don't expect either of them to. But it would be nice..

So? All i am saying is it wont have a chance of say... 10 million copies sold because the fanbase isn't mainly into shooters.

I dont see a problem with my post.

i don't expect uncharted 2 to sell 5 million, it may sell a little better than first but not double. Even i by some miracle it did sell 5 million copies it would be because of legs that will take years, which means it will never beat GT5.



currently playing: Skyward Sword, Mario Sunshine, Xenoblade Chronicles X

Actually, it is possible, but only if Sony advertise it enough, which sadly, I can't see this happening.

Not really. I doubt it.

The PS3 fanbase isn't one of them fanbases what just buy shooters, there are plenty of other genres that they like.

Racers, Platformers... etc.

It should do a healthy 3 Million, no higher than 4.

Killzone 2 sales predictions

CGI-Quality said:
Mine still stands: 700,000 first week, 4.5-5mill LTD. This might be playing it safe for week 1, it might do plenty more.

 

Squilliam said:
3.5 million would be my conservative estimate, I was thinking 4-4.5 as a nice range for LTD sales.

 

Kantor said:


Killzone 2 launches in February. That is three months after CoD:WaW. The shooter fans will want another FPS. They will look for the best FPS on the PS3, and find Killzone 2.

That is why I predict 700k first week, 4-4.5 million LTD.

 

Jo21 said:

i think it will do good

over 600k first wake

3-5 miliones LTD.

it's impossible such a great graphics game, and great gameplay won't sell.

 

Aj_habfan said:

Lifetime sales:

NA: 1.8 million
EU: 2.2 million
JP: 80k

TOTAL: 4.1 million
