@ XBOX_Man

Uncharted 2 was released in the holiday season. ME2 and GoW 3 will probably receive holiday boosts as well...

@Godofwar3_ever

Interesting comparison, it shows which game the general public is going with, thats Uncharted 2, in terms of legs.

I am very worried about Mass Effect 2, did it have a negative word of mouth in the end.

I hope sales remain flat 20k in America and 10k in Europe until the holiday season.
I hope for 50k+ next week !
Hope is what makes us strong, it is what we fight with when all else is lost !

It will only need to sell over 20K for a year to get a million extra sales, thats not even taking into account platinum edition boosts.

Even if it seems like games have low legs, over a period of 1 - 2 years they end up surprising and selling over 1 million - 2 million more

Actually even with the April overtrack this is still about 200k-250k low in Americas. Canada has almost certainly sold through it's first shipment of 250k by now and I'm still assuming Latin America represents about 50k-100k of sales so it should be around 1.6 million by week 7. Has anyone brought this to the attention of ioi? And yeah, amazing Japan legs. It's already at 100k with Trilogy sales.

GodOfWar_3ever posted 13/05/2010, 06:23
How much was this adjusted up by after NPD March results came in ? it looks like by 100k to me.

NPD March US only sales - 1.1 million

Vgchartz March US only sales - 860k

Thats still 160k low and some of that 100k which it was adjusted up by surely must have been from Canada + Other countries....
1.1 million margin of error = 110k
so its not even within the margin of error...
hmmmm...
+ it hasn't been adjusted a bit in Europe...since this was undertracked in America, I'm inclined to believe its a bit undertracked in Europe also since VGC EU numbers are rumored to be less accurate.

In its first month in American regions, VGC has this at 1.1 million...
NPD has it at 1.1 million in US and I read somewhere TheSource posted that US sales are 83.33% of "Americas" sales usually... thats 5/6 th of the sales... Judging by that math it would have sold 220k in Canada + Other regions bringing the NPD influenced numbers to 1.32 million first month in America.

Hopefully at E3, Sony will reveal worldwide shipments...Lets see if VGC decides to make any adjustments...

Comparing GOW3 to GOW2 both on normal yes its much shorter, my first playthrough on GOW3 trying to get trophies took me less time than a speed run on GOW2 on easy. I didnt even die 5 times.

Of the bosses Poseidon & Hades were cool, Hermes wasnt really a fight, Hercules was disappointing, Chronos was good but not a boss, Scorpion was lame, Zeus was forgettable.

GOW is probably my most favorite franchise in the gaming industry. But as far as Hack n slashes go its not greater than Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2. Story wise GOW is better. Charater wise GOW is better but the hack n slash aspect of the games Ninja Gaiden wipes the floor with Kratos. Just my opinion.

Best hack n' slash game ever made. Picking up God of War collection and playing God of War 2 and God of War in that order. Playing the games in reverse order. Epic.

Devil May Cry 4, Ninja Gaiden 2 and Bayonetta are not even close to matching the epicness of God of War 3.

4 million to 5 million sales ltd. This game will have sales legs.

MGS4 released on the PS3 when there was only a few good games on the consol. Gow 3 released on the PS3 after about 5 differant exclusive PS3 games and 4 or 5 multiplat title. You can't really compare games like that because theres too many factors to take into consideration.

In 1990 the battle cry of all console makers was " Defeat Nintendo!". One character did the impossible Sonic the Hedgehog gave Nintendo a beating!

Well God of War 1 and 2 didn't have incredible sales considering how many PS2s are out there and they were major releases. Even God of War on the PSP only cleared 1.5 million and that's one of the best games on the PSP.

With that said... I'm not expecting impressive numbers but maybe PS3 owners are hungry for a game like this.

The box art is good, but there is something missing.

I guess the Wii idiots can't keep themselves away from rating PS3 games that aren't even out yet with 1's... So pathetic :(

@ frozone: the story isn't great but is sure better than average, the game itself is EXCELLENT (best hack n' slash of this generation), the graphics r unbelievably gorgeous (nothing else comes close), GOW3 is ridiculously undertracked, and u're very much full of it. >=)

Just picked this up. GOW3 is killa,killa story with stellar graphics! GOW 3,uncharted, gran turismo and killzone have the best graphics for ps3 exclusives .Story is incredible like uncharted and resistance series.This game alone is just a work of art probably one of ps3's best games this gen.

It is also undertracked in the USA for the first 3 weeks by over 200k. NPD has first 3 weeks at 1.1 million in the U.S.A. and VGC only has it at 900k. VGC sales are never accurate
