Hi!

How many copies do you think that these games will sell day one, week one and month one? Can Gears of War 2 beat Halo 3's exclusive record?

I highly doubt Gears 2 will beat Halo 3 or even GTAIV for that matter.

Same with Killzone 2.

Neither will beat Halo 3 but i think GoW 2 will beat Killzone purely because it has a high-profile predecessor this genereation on the same console.

I wouldn't be surprised if Gears of War 2 sold more than 2,000,000 copies day one, actually.

Gears of War 2 will sell more copies than Killzone 2. As for which game will be better, I don't know. The sequel to a massive flop vs the sequel to the (slightly overrated) GOTY 2006. Right now, Killzone 2 impresses me more.

Reasoning?

Gears 2 does not have as wide an appeal as Halo 3, for sure. I don't see it doing drastically greater than the original...

Predictions for Geow 2 is 3,8 million week one, although I think THATS exaggeration, but 5 million lifetime? Sad... It's like saying next GTA will sell less than GTA IV

Gears of War has sold more than 5,000,000 copies to date. The second one will be more anticipated! 2 million day one is reasonable.

Sorry but i dont have a time machine,but based on both games reputation,Gears 2 has more chances to sell more copies because is a proven Franchise that got really nice scores and game of the year awards.. unlike Killzone..

Holy 8 month old post, Batman! :o

Anyway, I was talking about Killzone 1, it flopped. And I do think Gears 1 was a little overrated. We could play the "No it wasn't! Yes it was! etc..." game or we could simply agree to disagree.

Does anybody else find it funny how Gamespot had to wait to review Killzone 2's multiplayer, but automatically gave Gears 2 multiplayer the badge thing under "the good" for competetive multiplayer...and we all know how that turned out...

EDIT: And Gears 2 didn't get the weak story badge...SERIOUSLY?
