It did help minmizing BC, which SONY figured out far too late, but you do have to geve credit, BC lacking or not, it sells a lot of games.
I think Achievements are propelling sales as well. MANY, Many people are buying crap games just for points, which was genius by M$.
Simply brilliant.
Last gen, we avoided crap games, this gen, people are playing thru them for points that do nothing. It's smart.

fable 2 will sell close to 2million and the Jrpg over 500k for sure.

yes this. plus, many people that own both ps3 and 360 are buying multiplats on the 360 for achievements.

I own all three systems and I could care less about achievements, But to the person who wrote the comment u were replying to I have to agree that it does look as if achievements does play a big role in seeing how many of these crap games people do buy just to get achievement points. Not saying they are all bad but there are some real good games on the 360 that dont sell well as some of those that have sold a million copies which is pretty sad for any system just as uncharted and a few other titles get looked over. Transformers game anyone? Come on man why the hell would anyone want that game, I know the cartoon and movie rocked but the game sucked donkey ba**s.

I didnt say everyone, I dont care about achievements myself. but many people do. The games that are on both ps3 and 360 are almost the same. achievements are a plus for people in their decision on which version to buy
The Wii sells alot more software overall, but given the massive userbase, that's to be expected.
All 3 consoles are doing very well in this area though, which is good to see.

So much for the shooter box lol, Fable 2, IU, too Human and TOV should all sell well.Fable will do well, but the other three you mentioned will most likely bomb massively (espescially the jrpg's)
That's not to say that only shooters sell on the console. Assassins Creed, Guitar Hero, Rock Band, Dead Rising, Forza, DOA4, Oblivion, Mass Effect any heaps of other non-shooters all sold well over a million.

And I agree, oh and I wasnt arguing wit u if thats what u thought I was doing, lol.
I myself have been buying multiplats on 360 strictly because of achievements.
I also think another factor that went into sluggish attatch rate numbers early on for the ps3, were the enourmous amont of people looking to cash in on EBAY sales of the console at launch. On the line to pre-order the console at GS, myself and the one person ahead of me were some of the very few, actually planning on keeping our consoles. The person right behind me asked if it was the line for the Gamestation 2.
hell no.....the only thing the 360 does is scratch your games...get RROD.....too many shooters, and not enough japanese support or rpgs...it sucks big time!!!Dante2710

I'll bet you your mortal soul that Too Human will do extremely well.No it's gamers who get the credit. The 360 has failures and charges for everything and yet there's a ton of gamers who put up with it.
