Sales mean everything to the people who make and publish games - the importance of sales cannot be understated...67gt500

how true right now i'm hating Valkyrie chronicles cause it didn't sell over a million copies

Yeah I wish the good PS3 games would sell better. I mean the 360 games that scores well sells well too, so why not the good PS3 games.

This is just in reference to console gaming. #1 there are Wii games that have sold 2x and 3x what Halo 3 has sold to date. It's honestly not that much. Each Halo sold record breaking numbers relative to the 1st day, 1st week, etc. But bottom line is that it sells to a hardcore base at the end of the day. It's legs aren't even close to the highest of all-time. #2 Gran Turismo sells what 10 million on average (actual game not the Prologues)...that pretty much outsells everything that's a hardcore exclusive for consoles. Halo 3 has barely broke that mark and it's in its third iteration LOL. So...anything not made by Nintendo or named Gran Turismo is irrelevant when it comes to sales talk of exclusives on consoles really. heybooboo19

If Halo hasn't sold that much then why hasn'tany PS3 games been able to come close to the same sales.

Why dont people get this. Yes Gran Turismo sold 10 million when the PS2 had 120 million total sales with no other console to compete with it. Thats only about 10% sales.It will sell well but it wontsell as well as before because the markethas more of a spilt between consoles and more games

I think PS3 games are actually selling quite well considering the size of the userbase. There were a hell of a lot of amazing games on the PS2 that failed to break one million sales on a userbase which was much much bigger. People this generation are just used to seeing 'X GAME SELLS 2 MILLION COPIES AT LAUNCH' and assume that only that is a success. Fortunately, developers of the PS3 understand the reality of what good sales are, and it doesnt have to be selling millions of copies immediately.

Halo 3 Sold 8 million copies When there Was 15 million Xbox 360 consoles world wide

And Kill zone 2 (Halo Killer) sold 1 million cpoies when there Was20 million Ps3 consoles world wide

halo and gears of war Are two games that going to be movies

MGSIV, Uncharted, Ratchet & clank, Warhawk, SOCOM, Disgea 3, Folklore, KZ2, Resistance 1&2, GT5P, Valkyria Chronicles, Heavenly Sword, LBP etc etc

lets say all the above games didnt sell over 1 million, that still didnt change the fact they are amazing exclusives and games i enjoyed playing.. so as much as sales seem the most important thing in SW, I just dont care and focus on actually playing the games rather then worry about how much they sold in order to claim some sort of sad ownage in forums..

Hey man, as long as PS3 games aren't selling, that'll only force the developers (especially the first parties) to make the games bettah, which is exactly what we are seeing with PS3 and why Wii shovels out more sh.t than the amount of crap human beings as a whole egest every day. That is of course until PS3 developers find that their revenues just aren't good enough to justify the cost/time in the first place.

Personally, I'm more a man of quality and only buy the games which have been reviewed best, or go for a long standing series that I like (e.g. PES/FIFA). I wouldn't for instance by a game like X-Men Origins. If I'm anything to go by, that's why PS3 third parties sell like crap. I don't know if it's known in the mainstream, but mutliplats are almost always better on the 360 (something I didn't actually know before I joined this God-forsaken board. When I bought my PS3 I assumed it was numero uno so that must be more like the masses, yes?).

Also, I bought the PS3 for its killer combo - gaming and Blu Ray. Having an HDTV without Blu Ray is just lame.

Sales really don't matter to me personally but in the grand scheme of things I know they matter.

But I only wish people would post accurate numbers to back up there claims, the wikipedia lists are wholly inacurate for both consoles.

I subbscribe to GFK and I can tell you for a fact both Fifa 09 and Pro Evolution Soccor 09 (Both not on that list) passed 1 million sales on Ps3 in Europe alone.

I'm not understanding what your trying to say at all, but as a gamer I don't play sales and the PS3 has more Amazing games to play IMO then the 360... When I had a 360 the only games that I played were Gears of War, Halo 3, and Call of Duty 4... On PS3 there Is Killzone 2, Resistance 2, Metal Gear Solid 4, Disgaea 3, LittleBigPlanet, Call of Duty 4, Valkyria Chronicles... W1ckedGo0se

MGSIV, Uncharted, Ratchet & clank, Warhawk, SOCOM, Disgea 3, Folklore, KZ2, Resistance 1&2, GT5P, Valkyria Chronicles, Heavenly Sword, LBP etc etc

Funny that those totals aren't for World Wide sales, and also that list only shows 5/10 360 exclusives, while showing9/10 ps3 actual exclusives. Wheres all of these top selling exclusives for the 360? Multiplates help the actual game developers while exclusives for a console bring in revenue for the mother company. So I would definitely say that Sony is doing pretty good in the revenue department for the half baked list of ps3 exclusives that is shown there for the ps3.

Dude Halo 3 has sold almost 9 millions copies by itself. With an install that is less then half of the Wii. What the hell are you on about?

The games that have sold 2x and 3x this gen are, Wii Sports (PACK IN, IN THE USA), Wii play (comes with controller), and Wii Fit (amazing sales for sure, though It's hardly a "core" game), and Mario Kart (Awesome game for sure).

The next game is Super Smash Bros, at almost 9 million. To dismiss Halo in lieu of basically a controller, a pack in, and a new controller/weight/exercise game is ludicrous and one sided.

Mario Kart is a beast. And it has been for years, rightfully so.

GRAN TURISMO has two 10 million sellers give or take, both on consoles that dominated the market. For Halo 3 to reach 9 million+ coming from a (huge) franchise on a system with less then 1/4 of the install base last go round is nothing short of astounding.

If These Wii games are the runaway success this gen (and they are)...., Then Halo 3 being VERY close to the top selling games this gen is no small feat and can't be dismissed.

Ps3 Lose Two old 3 party friends square enix and namco bandai

Becuase SALES are S**ks On ps3

it doesnt matter what you say but sales are important. Ask GG is they'll be spending another (reported)22million on one game!

p0g0theclown

i think they probably will, not 22 million but they'll have a big budget and hype like epic with gears to gears 2. they spent 22 million on the first game, but now they have an engine and premise to work with they could release a couple of other games for cheaper and easily make a decent profit. they could even sell off the rights to their engine for others to use. look at valve they made the source engine and have made loads off that.

sales don't matter to us, they only really matter when a game has no follow up because of poor sales. Argueing gears 2 - 3 million over killzone 2 - 1 million or whatever is pointless as i'm sure both devs are very happy with their sales.

I doubt GG or Sony are too happy with KZ2 sales. Especially in America. I mean, it's a game, with guns, and blood ... Americans love that kinda stuff.

They aren't selling low, maybe it has something to do with how Sony is 7 million units behind MS and are more careful about their purchese. Most PS3 games that break 1 million deserve it, like Uncharted, MGS4, and KZ2. I bet half the 360 list is casual crap.gamefan274

That is odd, your claim is does not match what i was told by the manager at Gamestop. The PS3 games are selling like hotcakes in most areas.

but until you have more than your unbacked word my word is just as good.

and why bring up something like the ugh=Fable 2 if you wanted to say something positive about the 360?

you should have at least attempted to make a prima facie case when you started this thread.

Oh right, this is SW i should not expect anything more.
