FFXIII will hurt GoW3 sales....FFXIII will hurt any other game's sales that are to be released in that month.


I doubt that espeacially in US, also the pre-orders chart shows u that people want Gow 3 more.

lol we shall see.  I always enjoy the GoW series except sales seems to fall shorter than i hoped for seeing as how its one of Sony's best franchise.  Pre-orders doesnt always mean much, look at the pre-orders for MW2 and NSMB Wii.


Yeah they did alot better

Speaking of sales, i believe Gow 3 will sell more first week and more lifetime sales in US.

I actually believe ff13 will sell more 1st week even in U.S. Has GOW ever been that big? Isnt is just a 2mil seller usually? Why are people expecting so much this time?

My thoughts exactly.  GoW is a great series i love it and is one of my favorites, but it hasnt exactly been that big sales wise so what makes GoW3 any different?

Through-the-roof hype. The Spike VGAs even named it "Most anticipated title of 2010."

On what platform? Do you mean jsut the PS3, or does this include the 360? Do you think it could take steam away from Wii games?

I guess on the PS3 since its comparing against GoW3.

Im not exactly sure whats being released for the 360 around that time so i cant speak for FFXIII on the 360 but ill take a shot and guess that FFXIII on the 360 will beat any other 360 games thats being released that month eheh.

Could FFXIII on the 360 alone beat GoW3 for PS3 is a possibility.

And nothing can take steam away from Wii games.  Wii is just a beast underneath that sleek small cute look lol

You are overestimating FF's popularity. There will be many games like BFBC2 which will outsell FFXIII in the west.

lol well if true then media hype is indeed a great factor, we've witness internet hype (KZ2, Haze etc..).  I cant even get my friends to get into GoW since they havent played the first two and arent willing to play the 3rd without playing the previous.

Its rare for a game from a series to make people jump in late in a series if its continuing from the previous.  Halo 3 did it because majority was in it for the online factor though.

Even if Spike named it most anticipated for 2010, we're talking about FFXIII, its been anticipated since forever lol.  But we'll see in a few months if Spike truly speaks for NA.

BFBC2 as in Battlefield Bad Company 2?  You feel the sequal will do way better than the first and beat FFXIII in the west?  How much greater do you think BFBC2 will sell on its first week?  The first one sold +200k for 360 & +60k for PS3 on the first week. 1.22M & 0.76M LTD respectively.  I think you're overestimating BF popularity.

God of War in the west is pretty big. Just look at the preorder charts.



Rockstar: Announce Bully 2 already and make gamers proud!

Kojima: Come out with Project S already!

The Spike VGAs did a lot of things and very few was worthwhile. I wouldn't read too much into it.
