What else is new, pretty much all multiplatform games sell better on the X360.

B-But Duke Nukem has been in development longer than the average age of a XBL user.

ZING. Okay, I kid I kid. Or am I?

I'm sure Brussel Sprouts tastes better than **** but i still wouldn't choose to eat it. Especially if it costs a lot more to actually eat.

Pc gamers dont buy games, but wonder why devs dont tailor games to them all the time.

We bought 3 mil copies of crysis at $10 a sale, why are you selling 1 mil copies at $60 per purchase to consolers? I dont understand because i Pc game? Isnt my $10 steam discount PC purchase as good as $60 console purchase of your game? Im a Pc gamer, so im smarter and understand more things.

This just sends the wrong message to developers. Make a mediocre game and it will sell at least on the 360! This and Homefront are classic examples and you wonder why we're getting dumber games.

Well it doesn't seem to be getting good scores from what I've seen and the users opinions have been mixed. Also, Infamous 2 just came out so, that may have something to do with it. However, the 360 usually outsells the PS3 in most genres anyway except for Fighters and certain other games.

Not everyone plays games based on their review scores. The Monster Hunter games asides from Tri got terrible scores here at Gamespot, and 60-70's most other places, yet it has millions of fans and tons of people love the games. Weirdly enough people are allowed to form their own opinions. Plus I find it funny that you say the games are dumber just because they recieved low scores, they're just as bog standard as most FPS that get 9's year after year.

Probably because PS3 users are playing their exclusive flop that just released. ;)

Well they have no exclusives to buy so they throw their hard earned cash at crap like this

/sarcasm

EDIT: This is for the UK chart - presumably - and the 360 has a significantly larger market share here.

You can't be that smart if you don't do any research before talking crap. Also you answered your question in the question you presented. XFD. What do you mean tailor towards PC gamers? that makes no sense, most if not all multiplats are better on PC IF you have the hardware run it. And it's cheaper on PC. I don't know if it's this forum or what but people have a false sense of reality and no nothing about gaming in the real world. Console games sell more for a reason, it's a bigger market, if it wasn't then console gaming wouldn't exist because development would be much cheaper and easier on PC's so they'll ignore consoles.

Wasn't talking about these games based on review scores. The Monster Hunter games are different, same as the Mount&Blade series. Which doesn't score high, but gives me gameplay I can't get anywhere else. I'm talking about these mediocre FPS's that sell well, despite having no redeeming features. At least Bulletstorm did something different and plays well, so I could see people buying that.
