So much for KZ2 being a system seller... Or the fact that KZ2 didn't sell at the hype level on this forum.

[QUOTE="Ragnarok1051"][QUOTE="789shadow"]

You haven't been paying much attention, have you?? And you definitely didn't read Nintendo Power's RPG Special.

789shadow

Lets see most of its better RPGs are remakes from the SNES, but of course you have your original games such as Suikoden and your standard Pokemon.

And Sands of Destruction, and Phantasy Star 0, and on and on....

Here's a few more to help you out. Contact, Etrian Odyssey 1 & 2, Lunar Knights, Dragon Quest IX, Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker, Blue Dragon Plus, Avalon Code, Rune Factory 1 & 2, Mario and Luigi 2 & 3, Hoshigami Remix, Away Shuffle, Izuna 1 &2, Heroes of Mana, Final Fantasy XII Revnant Wings, Children of Mana, Valkyrie Profile, The World Ends with You, Sonic Chronicles, Summon Night, and many other ones.

If you want one you have to get a 2nd job like Sony said... Before PS3 released.

[QUOTE="_SWAG_"] since the ps3 had sf4 and killzone2 i thought the ps3 would outsell the 360, guess not

Good point, but the PS3 is still $400, but at the same time I don't like to use this excuse because the PS3 sells pretty decent with that price, so you can't have it both ways.

Disappointing for the PS3 yet again. 360 wins by more then 100,000 and in terms of sales Street Fighter IV 360 beat both SFIV PS3 and Killzone 2... Not surprising but proves that this trend isn't going to change.

360 putting on the hurt yet again on PS3.

Unlike Halo 3, KZ2 was unable to move sufficient consoles on its first couple days.

PS3 thoroughly slapped by 360.

It isn't that bad. Not like what the Wii did to the 360 and ps3.

Even though its still the most expensive the PS3 moved a fair amount of hardware. If Sony canget a$100 dollar price drop in. Then we will start to see it move large amounts of console's every month.

That's only two days worth of sales in North America. Did you forget that people buy games from all parts ofthe globe? KZ2 probably sold 1.5 to 2 mill globally by now.

I just find it amazing that after all this time, that the PS2 STILL manages to sell 100 K plus. Cannot help but wonder what kind of effect it would have on sells if the console were to drop below the 100 dollar price point.

Link256
I'm pretty sure you'll see the Wii and 360 hit those prices after 7 or 8 years. Seeing as how Sony isn't dominating the gaming scene this gen, there's no reason why MS and Nintendo would discontinue their consoles this time around. Especially in this recession, I don't see any company dumb enough to put out a new console anytime soon.

360 feb 08=254600 ps3 feb 08=280800

360 feb 09=391000 ps3 feb 09=276000

360 YOY increase by 140k!!!!!

PS3 YOY decrease by 10 000..........on KZ2 month :lol:

I love NPD.

The best part and its the cherry on the lemming cake is when Halo 3 came out the 360 out sold the Wii. The PS3 with KZ2 could not even sell more then what it did the year before. NPD time is always fun :lol:

Both Halo wars and Resident evil are FLOPS and overrated. The word of mouth for killzone2 will help it chart again next month. All ps3 games have good legs, so with the positive buzz of killzone2, it will reach the top spot next month and remain in the charts for the next few months.

How many months in a row now has the PS3 sold less then it sold for the same month a year before 6 or 7 months now? It is crazy the PS3 is going backwards instead of gaining ground unlike the 360 and the Wii.

that does not at all change the fact of what I said though :|

and why do people not realise time and time again that the significant price difference during incredibly hard economic times would probably be the deciding factor in which console has more sales :roll:

The Real World is this magical land that exists outside of System Wars. It's a nice place. Cool to hang out there.

Sorry to say this (no I'm not) but GameSpot is not the foremost authority when it comes to game reviews. Outside of this place, Halo Wars is rated at an 82 on Metacritic and...well it's already been said but it sold over a million copies worldwide. It may be a flop here according to System Wars standards, but its performance in the real world has proven that it's anything but.

Which is the case with A LOT of games. That is why each person's opinion should be most important to them before they look anywhere else. It is a shame if anyone takes this place seriously.

[QUOTE="rorskarch"][QUOTE="xsubtownerx"] You do know Halo Wars has sold over a million copies, right? It's only a -flop- in the SW universe. Not in the real world.The_Game21x

and whats the real world? any site that didn't flop the game?

The Real World is this magical land that exists outside of System Wars. It's a nice place. Cool to hang out there.

Sorry to say this (no I'm not) but GameSpot is not the foremost authority when it comes to game reviews. Outside of this place, Halo Wars is rated at an 82 on Metacritic and...well it's already been said but it sold over a million copies worldwide. It may be a flop here according to System Wars standards, but its performance in the real world has proven that it's anything but.

yes there are other sites, obviously, which just may be more correct than gamespot, but this is just as "real" as the rest of the internet. and of course it would sell so many because it is a new halo game. I'm just sick of people saying "...in the real world," as whatever place other than gamestop just so it fits with their agenda.

Nice spin lem. but 6.5 = Flop. cant change it. tis the facts.

I spun nothing.:?

I said that it is a flop according to System Wars rules. Here, let me highlight that part since you apparently missed it the first time around.

[QUOTE="Grinning_Demon"]The fad is overHarlockJC

Even though the Wii did this in Jan. to it still shocks me to see these kind of numbers for Wii in Feb. I seriously can't believe. All the hardware numbers as a whole are just mind bogoling crazy to me because of it being Feb. and all.

I think we are seeing what happens when Nintendo is able to meet demand for the first time.

I am surprised it was that high. I see atleast 2-3 Wiis at the most of the stores here at my school and back home.

:lol: @ lems, celebrating meaninglessly without noticing how the Playstation Family has outsold them ONCE AGAIN. And when next month Killzone2 tops the charts, cant wait to see their excuses

LunchBox-

how embarrassing is it that the entire "playstation family" got outsold by the wii alone?

the entire "playstation family", consisting of THREE systems, BARELY outsold the DS alone - how embarrsing is that?

And we are in System wars right now, so you have to go by those rules. cant bring up the "real world" garbage to change the topic. a flop is a flop. no way to change that

Again, I'm not trying to change it. I was presenting other opinions from other websites, which I'll continue to do, as I always have, long before you got here. If you don't like that, then fine. Feel free to ignore my posts. Halo Wars is a flop here. There. I've said it again. I'm not saying it isn't. But, since we all exist in the real world and GameSpot does not exist in a vacuum, real world opinions will always be relevant, one way or another.
