Well, I'm purely guessing, I didn't even play either of them - my knowledge is all gameplay videos.
You should probably play both. Or at least try 'em.

What I imagine will tank:

Homefront
Dynasty Warriors 7 (seriously, this franchise has been milked and beaten to death)
Nascar 2011 (no one outside the US would wanna buy it, since the rest of the world prefers Formula 1)
Shift 2: Unleashed (Shift 1 wasn't very popular)
F.E.A.R. 3 (how much further will this game get pushed back until people stop caring about it altogether?)
Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure (only the die-hard Spyro fans would consider this game. Everyone else has long ago abandoned the little dude)

Most have been said, but mainly...
Homefront,
Rage,
Motorstorm: Apocalypse,
F.3.A.R,
Duke Nukem Forever,
And finally, the worst of all... Skyrim.

I'm joking, Skyrim will sell faster than hot buns lodged in unreleased copies of the new Harry Potter book which depicts Hermione's bi-curious stage. I think I got that right.

id's Rage.

Just don't see any hype for it. Don't know anyone who's seriously pumped about Rage.
I was seriously pumped for it. In 2007. But yeah there hasn't been much hype for it.

I think SWTOR will dissapoint EA simply because while I'm sure Bioware fans will love it I don't think manyu will continue with it long enough for it to become the next top MMO.

Maybe they'll pick up the pace, but I doubt that.
Well they made a fan out of me when they showed it at E3 last year. And that's really the last we've heard of it. The E3 videos made it look really awesome though, so I'm semi-pumped for it.

Pokemon Black & White.

I mean, can you say "commercial failure"?
Why do you say that? Black and White has received higher review scores than any previous pokemon game.

id's rage for sure, and homefront for sure, otherwise most games will do solid enough..

oh and fyi, SWTOR isn't going to be coming out till next year more than likely, probably later than that. (i thought i remember seeing some article on here saying that)

Homefront...I doubt it will get any score higher than 7/10.

And F3AR? Well, seeing as the developers COMPLETELY forgot what made the first game so creepy...it will probably end up being as bad as Project Origin.

That's because it wasn't a post-apocalyptic game. It was set on a dangerous, desolate planet.

*glances left and right*

...Diablo III would probably be a disappointment...

...ah ****!!!*runs away from the angry mob*

tbh, I can't wait to play the monk.

As others have said, Duke Nukem forever would definitely be a disappointment...

Always expect the worst... and you will always be pleasantly surprised :-D

Defiantly Homefront

Mainly because it's main selling point is the emotional attachment of a war in America.

Good luck THQ for trying to sell that game outside of America, because you are going to have a hard time shifting those copies.

That was sarcasm.
Perhaps reading a couple posts more would have been good.

Perhaps realizing that sarcasm can't be expressed with two short lines of printed text with no context would be better.

Medal of Honor tanked? It sold well over 3,000,000 copies. If thats tanking, then I hope to hell The Witcher 2 tanks.
It only sold that much because of the heavy ad campaign and of course the controversy.
