I'm going to name some big exclusives and compare sales (worldwide) from VGchartz.

360
Halo 3 - 10.21m (25th Sep 07 )
Gears of War - 5.91m (07th Nov 06 )
Gears of War 2 - 5.23m (30th Jul 09 )
Forza 2 - 4.00m (29th May 07 )
Fable 2 - 3.16m (21st Oct 08 )
Left 4 Dead - 2.41m (17th Nov 08 )
Mass Effect - 2.08m (20th Nov 07 )
Crackdown - 1.51m (20th Feb 07 )

PS3
Metal Gear Solid 4 - 4.23m (12th Jun 08 )
Resistance: Fall of Man - 3.63m (14th Nov 06 )
Gran Turismo 5 Prologue - 3.15m (15th Apr 08 )
Uncharted: Drake's Fortune - 2.58m (16th Nov 07 )
LittleBigPlanet - 2.43m (28th Oct 08 )
Killzone 2 - 1.93m (27th Feb 09 )
Resistance 2 - 1.67m (04th Nov 08 )
Ratchet & Clank Future: Tools of Destruction - 1.50m (23rd Oct 07 )

As you can see, only 2 360 franchises have sales that no ps3 games have. And thats Halo and Gears.

So all this talk about how the 360 has all these popular killer aps needs to die. Because for a system with a lower user base then the 360 sell just as good.

Mass effect came out the same month as uncharted, but unharted sold more.

So in conclusion, yes 360 exclusives sell ALITTLE more but not alot. the ps3 had a low userbase back then. but with the slim boosting the userbase no doubt it will have games with sales beyond 5 mill. GT5 for one is one of those games.

Yea 360 has a larger base as well. Edit : lol didnt know GT5 demo beat out Mass Effect !! Thats a big achievement for a demo with a smaller console base.

360 do sell more games, but thankfully that's not a true measure of how good a game is.

No he is just addressing the claim that ps3 owners don't buy their exclusives

As said by this person..This debate should end right here, because none of us are franchisers. We all are gamers here and we are here to enjoy games and discuss how good and bad they are, not their sales.

Halo and Gears sold more then any PS3 games with i believe a smaller userbase then when MGS4 was released on the PS3.(As with most of the games listed)

Also, looking at that shows 360 games sell more. How much they sell more by is irrelevent.

Edit: Also, most of the PS3 exclusives were bundled on release.

Those are some impressive sales for Fable II. Is the GOTY Bundle sales included?

If you take out the non-exclusives, the gap would be even smaller.

PS3 fanboys above ^^ make me laugh.

I doubt the pc sales for teh first gears of war are included becaause gears of war had sold over 5 million before they even thought of a pc version and that leaves what? Left 4 dead?

I don't see why ODSTs weren't used, it has 2.21 million on VGchartz.

God, why am I getting into a sales discussion.

Definitely should have included ODST's. It's barely been out long and already above the 2.2 million mark.

I would think they would include PC sales in the 5 mil because when you go to the PC version of gears of war, it has no sales at all.

So Halo 3 + GeOW 1&2 have outsold the top 8 PS3 games combined?

Thread = backfired.

Two factors. 1) Install base gap. 2) Advertisement. Microsoft does it masterfully.

Didn't Gears of War come out over 6 months later on PC? Most of those sales are before it went multiplat, same with Mass Effeect.

You can take out L4D and add in ODST. It has more sales anyway.
