Why do we care? I honestly think it is more to do with the average age of console owners. If I were to guess, I would predict the average age of gamers on the PS3 is higher than the 360's. This means more jobs and more money = also having PC's. PC= superior version of BF3 imo. Also the fact that Xbox live has the general sterotype of being better than the PSN in terms of connection or lag or whatever, when the majority of games don't even use dedicated servers. This is probably wrong, but who knows.

[QUOTE="GeneralShowzer"][QUOTE="landofcookies"]PS3 owners are waiting for Modern Warfare 3. Watch MW3 sell at least 4-5 million on the PS3 in the first week.

PS3 - the COD console?

Are you insulting the PS3?

[QUOTE="vashkey"]

[QUOTE="AvatarMan96"] I see Gran Turismo 5 as the best selling PS3 game: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_best-selling_video_games#PlayStation_3 Yes, I used Wikipedia, but the citations also prove it.AvatarMan96

Nope.

eurgamer.net/articles/2011-03-03-black-ops-the-best-selling-ps3-game-ever

Was that site supposed to be useful? All I saw were a bunch of links to other articles, NONE related to Black Ops. Fail, my friend. Fail.

He mistyped the webpage. It's an article on eurogamer, not eurgamer. Yes, there was a stint where GT5 was the highest selling PS3 game but Black Ops did surpass it.

I found this: http://www.vgchartz.com/article/88330/ea-loses-340m-in-the-september-2011-quarter/

- 6m people are using the Origin service to date.

*thinks* I mean like other then SWTOR, Sims, and BF3, what else are people using Origin for?

That's not surprising. Just like how Final Fantasy 13 sold far more on PS3 than 360, and GT5 has nearly sold as many units as Forza 2 and 3 combined in less than a year. 360 always outsells PS3 in the shooter genre. I think this is because their top exclusives are shooters (Halo and Gears of War). Its the biggest reason to own the console. PS fans have always been a split group. FF, GT, MGS, Socom, God of War, Uncharted...all sort of splinter the PS community into a variety of fan groups/genres

Does it really matter because the PC version is the best, plus the 360 is only good for FPSs anyways so it's no suprise.

Peoples, this VG Chartz.

They do not track ANYTHING. Not even retail sales.

They literlaly poll a handful of gamers comign out of gamestops and extrapulate from there.

They are usually off for console numbers, and are completley out fo whack for PC.

Rememebr When Cd Project said they had sold over a million PC copies of Witcher 2? At the same time, Vg Chartz had PC sales of that game at 80,000 units.

Remember Gabe Newel saying that Portla 2 did better on PC than consoles? VG Chartz has the xbox 360 sellign something like 10 times more than PC.

So it's not just wrong. It's dead wrong.

no one should pay any attention to those numbers. Wait until the quartely report from the publishers instead.

PS3 owners are to busy playing their 17+ exclusives. 360 owners got Forza 4 and Gears 3. I'm sure the sales are logical.

I don't know, I don't really take your link seriously. Besides I'm sure it sold fine on PS3 aswell considering that I have plenty of people on my PSN friends list who won't shut up about it! :P

But I don't own stock in Sony or MS so I don't really care.
