[QUOTE="nervmeister"][QUOTE="Bazooka_4ME"]:lol: mwahahaha!!... lemms are just off the hook this time of year...

 

Yes, Sony loves me, I'm pretty sure Sony would give so much love for you as well if you buy a PS3!

The thing is, Sony would love you so much that even they would even put their financial stat at risk just so they could show how much they care for their customers. :)

And sorry to disappoint you lemmboy cuz I invest my money wisely on reliable and more valued items rather than spent them on ripoffs such as having to pay extra for unnecessary things that you'd find somewhere else for free.

lol, even a guinea pig would know which tunnel would go to on a console that would give so much love to its pet.

You okay, dude?

lol, I didn't think you guys would nail that all the way down... I just couldn't spell s-a-r-c-a-s-m earlier but this Pimp dude is on a rampage singleing out cows. Seriously, I don't mind arguing or debating with people (lems, hermits, sheeps, and even cows) who has a complete opposite of opinion than mine but outraged fanboys like this one is just plain annoying..

Here we go again with another sales thread. First lemmings state that sales dont matter only the games when it comes to the Wii out selling both the 360 and PS3, only to double talk and throw in a Gears vs Resistance sales thread up. Double talk FTL.

Thread Denied.

Yeah well Sony already admitted their sales were 72% lower than last year, i mean, c'mon that is a major loss, and ever since they cheapened out on the hardware by discontinuing the 60-gig model and basically mass producing the faulty 40-gig model but with larger hard drives, no backwards compatibility, no sd or flash slots, only 2 usb slots and a very slow progressing game library. What do you expect, they shot themselves in the foot a lot more than once and now they have to deal with it, and unfortunately you guy's who only own a Sony PS3 are the ones who suffer, and i am genuinely sorry for that, and believe me i'm not trying to be a fanboy when i say this, but maybe you should consider switching to the Xbox 360, the RROD has lessened a great deal now and the online experience and game library is better than ever. Well it's up to you but you might want to give it some thought.

I think its quite clear what the problem is. Sony does not advertise. I live in the UK and constantly see Wii and 360 adverts. With the PS3 however I havent seen an advert since those launch 'This is Living' ones. Not to mention the fact that nearly all multiplat adverts end with the XBOX 360 logo. I have never seen an advert for MGS4, R2, LBP etc and these are all the PS3's big hitters. I really think that if they advertised more sales would go through the roof.

Also, its quite ridiculous to quote Resistance 2 as having poor sales when it hasn't even released in Europe yet; which was where the first game sold most.

Cows should be concerned with the sales of a game if they like the quality of said game. If people don't buy the game and dev don't make profit they'll release the game on another console, and probably make a multiplat game next time. Namco knows PS3 is a sinking ship and that's why they put Ace Combat 6 on 360 and Tekken 6:D.

PS3 problem is some people bought they system as just a blu-ray player. I have 2 friends that have done this. 360 main system PS3 blu-ray player and every now and then they'll rent something for the PS3 to see what the fuss is about i.e. LBP and R2 are just not worth owning especially since you can pretty much keep a game for a 4 weeks at Blockbuster for like $7.50

Nice flame bait, buddy. Where are you getting your numbers from? NPD Nov. hasn't been released and R2 isn't even out in Europe yet.:|Jack_Bauer07
No flame, dude. I was using VGchartz.Take it or leave it, but they had to adjust LBpP numbers DOWN for October after NPD came out so I felt that, if anything, they were giving that game too many sales. The 2+ mil that GeoW2 sold has been confirmed by MS. There is a news article about it on gamespot. Finally, the most hazy numbers are R2's, but VGchartz is usually within a couple hundred K. CoD5 managed to push more sales its first than R2's first two weeks. How about discussing the subject instead of questioning me on stats that nearly everyone else in this thread doesn't seem to have a problem with (no one else has brought it up)?

You're a level 5, huh? I am not a lemming, and you would know that if you looked at my sig which has both my LIVE and PSN ID's listed. Do you think I want to have my 500$ 80g Ps3 investment be a failure due to low software sales? No! I am concerned and curious about these new games' lack of sales power and so I created this thread. At 34 posts you don't have the authority to "deny" anything on these forums. It's quite rude, actually.

As a 3 system owner I find it crazy the gap in sales that the PS3 is experiencing software wise. LBP + R2 sales-to-date don't even match GeoW2's first week sales in NA. Absolutely pathetic. What are you all doing with you PS3s?AdmiralDan

:| :o :lol:

I needed that, but I'll go ahead and bite. I'll take play the games they already own and watch blurays for 500 Alex.

Well, that's what I thought. You're using the unreliable VGchartz to make claims that are probably false. How can you compare R2 and Gears 2's sales when first, we have no idea how much R2 has sold in NA. And second, R2 isn't even released outside of North America?

It's flame bait.

It doesn't matter if the TC is using VGchartz or just using logic. Games on the PS3 are not selling as well as games on the 360, fact. As for R2 not being released out side of NA doesn't matter, it still will not sell all that great. MGS4 considered to be the best game on PS3 has sold over 3 millions right maybe pusing 3.5. That's not that great for one of the best games on the system. Most, if not all multiplats sell better on the 360, as they should there is a larger user base.

All the TC was saying is there are 2 really great games out LBP and R2 and as of right now there sales combined haven't even touched that of GeoW2. He wasn't comparing anything, just stating a fact as of right now. What are PS3 owners doing with their PS3 watching a slightly better version of a movie that they could get cheaper on DVD, is the answer.

Another interesting thing to look at if you like to look at VGchartz which I don't advise you to I don't really hold them that high, but the 360 has 48 games that have sold over a million copies, and the PS3 has 17 games that have sold over a million. Which console would you rather develop for??? While I don't hold VGchartz that high, there stuff can't be too far off and that still a huge gap give or take 10 games for each system

Well in my opinion if there is any aspect of Resistance 2 that is better than Gears 2 it would be the multiplayer, i thought the original Resistance multiplayer was better than the original Gears multiplayer, and even though i've only heard that Resistance 2 has 60 capable online multiplayer but i haven't played it yet, i'm sure it's probably the same this time around too. Unfortunately the PS3 has more serious problems than Resistance 2 sales quantities.

Proof? Blu-Ray sales have been less than stellar unless you'd like to prove me wrong.

I do believe the sales have been slipping for Blu-ray as well, but I could almost guarantee you that most of the Blu-ray sales are going to PS3 owners, since it is/was the cheapest blu-ray player for a while.

Although I think it's walmart that is selling a BR player for like $200 or something crazy so maybe BR sales will start to pick up. Cause if BR fails all is lost for PS3, and I wouldn't like that because I'm really interested in that Twisted Metal title they are supposed to be working on.

Are you also aware that MGS4 is reaching the 5 million units sales 5 months after its launch when it took Gears "2 long years" to achieve that? It's not even christmas yet.

I am doing my part as much as possible. I bought Dead Space, Little Big Planet, Resistance 2, Motorstorm 2 and Valkyrie Chronicles in the last month. Thats $300 just in PS3 games alone. I do plan on getting Prince of Persia in December. I have stopped buying blu ray movies because i think they are a waste of money.

Where in God's green earth did you pull that stat out from? Even Vgchartz, which I mentioned frequently overstates sales, has MGS4 at 3.48 mil units sold worldwide. Konami came out and said 4 million units have been sold to retailers, not sold to consumers. It will take many many months for 4 mil copies to be in the hands of gamers. Either number is no where near 5 million. And what was 360's install base when Gears was released as a NEW IP?

 

This is neither here nor there, however, because no matter how many copies MGS4 sells it has no bearing on my original topic which is the poor showing that R2 and LBP have had. And to those of you saying that R2 hasn't been released outside of NA - I Know! Is it not more concerning that R2 could not muster even 500k in NA (out of a user base of over 6 mil) in its first 2 weeks!?!?!

Dang man, that's some serious spending. You should be booked game wise for months to come. I also plan on getting PoP for Ps3. Out of the rest of your list I only own R2, and I've rented VC and will probably pick it up at some point. Looks like 5 mil NA PS3 owners, however, are doing noting with their systems.

So basically I'm suffering because the games on PS3 interest me more than the Xbox 360? Sorry thats fanboy jargon. Also your better off getting a gaming PC than spend too much money on inferior multiplates, not enough exclusive games, and waiting for the console to come back from the repair shop. You might want to give that some thought.

I think LBP is an amazing game -- and I still wouldn't drop $60 on it. It's just not for me, and it's probably the same way for most PS3 owners.

I too bought all those games, Dead Space, Little Big Planet, Resistance 2, Motorstorm 2 and Valkyrie Chronicles, in addition I got Saints row 2, silent hill5, socom con, tomb raider underworld, bin arms: hh, disgaea3, Mirror's edge, rock band 2, eternal sonata, fallout 3, dmc4(used), and burnout paradise, all in the last 3 months so don't ever say we don't buy games...at least I buy games, and so do the people in my psn friends list...they are always getting new games. Hell, I got my ps3 in April for GTA4, and guess what, i now have 30 bluray disc games and 9+ psn titles.. I don't buy games? Not a chance! I do got to live up to my "The Collector" GS Emblem.
I think what they need to do to increase sales is not release all these games at x-mas, there is too many good games out at one time. The games need to come out during the gaming drought months. Also for sales, ps3 games are not front loaded. 360 games are always front loaded, they sell well at first but have no legs. PS3 games have been proven to sell more over time.

[QUOTE="AdmiralDan"]As a 3 system owner I find it crazy the gap in sales that the PS3 is experiencing software wise. LBP + R2 sales-to-date don't even match GeoW2's first week sales in NA. Absolutely pathetic. What are you all doing with you PS3s? Bigboi500
They are watching Blu Ray movies on them.

lol, actually i am and i am loving that feature on my PS3. I also bought LBP so i did my part but it was extremely shortlived so i sold it again... R2 i won`t touch, gameplay looks like #$%!, and there is way too many superior online shoothers on my other system :-)

Most people buy a PS3 for Blu-Ray, you'd have to be bloody insane to buy it for it's tiny games libary and the price there selling it at.

Well, i just saying here , but you should really look at world wide sales. I dont think R2 is even out in Europe yet. thats like saying X360 games dont sell after looking at japanese sales charts :?

That argument died back in 2007.

I would love that people would stop telling me what I should like or dislike or do or buy. It's annoying.

College.

Most Ps3 owners are either middle age working class man or college students. Thus, Most of them are bussy right now. Ps3 software sales will skyrocket in christmas you'll see.

Don't forget reading Japanese comic books and watching that funny guy Mr bean

[QUOTE="SolidGame_basic"]I don't think Resistance 2 is even out in Europe. LBP will spread through word of mouth. But above all, do you really care about sales? I find it ridiculous how people here keep bringing that up. JediRiff
No, people shouldnt care about sales. They should care that they are getting games they love to play, nothing more. However.... sales are the bottom line. If you want to go talk about how any game is going to wallop any other game (are you really going to ignore all the LBP posts we have had to suffer through for the past year and say cows were NOT talking about the megaton hit this would be?) then you better be ready to back that talk with numbers, ie sales. So, the bottomline then... Gears 2 nuked LBP and R2 back to the stone age. Fact. Saleswise. Although, I would be willing to bet that R2 is fun. The first one was, but thats not the point here. So many people wanted to trash Gears 2 and hype up LBP and R2, and they are the ones I am addressing. The public has spoken, and Gears 2 demolished them. Matter of fact, didnt it demolish Snake too?

Okay...this is funny to me when people play sales numbers. 50 Cent's craptacular game sold millions but the game is horrible. The point is sales don't equal quality. So the fact that Gears 2 'nuked' LBP and R2 sales means nothing to me. The same goes for all forms of media, Titanic is still the number one movie of all time in terms of sales, but the movie sucks. The same goes for games. Not that Gears 2 sucks, just that gamers as a whole are just like the rest of the public, they buy into garbage and trash every so often, while passing up on golden goodness.

Now, the only reason this stinks, is that developers may move away from the PS3 if it can't produce sales. Sony needs to advertise like crazy. It's not hard to coerce the masses into doing something if done right. Titanic and 50 Cent's Bulletproof are proof of that.

This right here is the bloody problem! People like this who bought it for one game, the360 owners who got a ps3 but still play more on that rrod box(why I will never know, and fankly don't care!) These people with 360 and ps3 went and spent their money on gears and didn't have any left for R2 or lbp.
