MGS2 backlash hurt its sales in its initial release. I just think there were people who said, "Never again" after being disappointed in MGS2. Maybe they ended up playing MGS3 at some point by either renting it or borrowing it from a friend, but I don't think they were lining up in droves on day one for MGS3 the way they were in 2001 for Sons of Liberty. MGS3 got great reviews and positive word of mouth from people who actually played the game. But for anyone who didn't play either of these games, it's their loss. They're both excellent.
