@spot-on,
It should do well over time. Other great PS3 games have had similar early sales and went on to have long legs. Uncharted is a similar example I believe. This is why Sony has been able to keep the prices of some of their games high for a long time, taking a page from Nintendo when their quality justifies it (relative to other games). I could also see Killzone 2 becoming a bundled game if they deem the sales not good enough for its quality.

@PhilHarrision,Sorry...shouldn't have said most...SONY's big titles sell well over time would be a more accurate statement.

@mrahaju,
Nicer looking list :
GTA:Chinatown Wars: 74,000
Killzone 2 : 58,000
Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena : 57,000
Halo 3 and Halo Wars each sold somewhere between 57,000 and 74,000 units.
If HW April was cashed out at 7.4 instead of 9.1, I would have enjoyed 128K DKP additional profit.
