Forums - Sony Discussion - What's up with Killzone 2's sales?

Like to add something, It seems that Uncharted 2 is making people buy the Uncharted 1 (new PS3 users and those people who first bought Uncharted 2). Of course there's the bundle but Sony timed it well to release the greatest hit version for Uncharted 1. I think lot of people are urged to buy the first one bec. they enjoyed the 2nd one.

So maybe the sales will begin to rise with new PS3 owners coming in. I playing a little catch up myself with some of these great ps3 games.

Like i said, HMV online sells it for just £14.99. That is ludicrously cheap for a quality game!

Who's going to buy a little exclusive FPS that launched in February when Modern Warfare 2 has released and is new...and is Modern Warfare?

That explains the lack of a holiday boost, but other Sony first party series outselling it...I have no idea. Maybe something to do with 4chan?

Well FPS's don't sell well on Playstatin consoles anyways, if it was on 360 it would have got a lot more sales.

I really wished this game would have sold more. It's my favorite PS3 game released so far. The campaign was all action, and the story was great. I just don't understand why the great PS3 exclusives just can't move more copies. With the build up for this game and the fanatstic reviews I thought it would have sold even more (Even though it hasn't sold poorly by any means).

Killzone 2 needs the Greatest Hits $29.99 treatment in North America. Now that the holidays are over, we should expect that soon.

Sounds good maybe I would purchase it...

It was one of Amazon lightning deals for 29.99 during the black Friday sales week and sold out in seconds!  That seems to be the right sales point for the game!

MW2 was gonna sell a lot but still hasn't sold as much as 360 version, FPS's don't sell on PS systems like i said MW2 is just a bigger game that everyone knows.

Yes highest selling FPS's on PS systems is MW2 but before that i was Meadol of Honor: Frontlines on PS2 which sold 6.29 m, that was on PS2 and no other FPS's has outsold it on a PS system until now.
