Resistance 2 isn't out in Europe yet, although it was never going to sell as much as Gears anyway.

no doubt it wouldnt sell as much as gears but its easily one of the best looking games on PS3 and prolly its biggest title of the year besides MGS4

i expectected it to sell atleast half of what gears did

1) Lemmins playing Sales now...huh 2) There are no official sales figure for R2 yet 3) Resistance 2 is by far the superior online Experience compared to Geow 2 4) it's funny how some Lemmings are grasping at straws because of all the bad publicity Geow 2 is receiving for it's crappy online.

Sales determine what is a flop or not in the real world. Sorry but there is a world outside SW and the internet, a world that actually matters.

Grasping at straws? More like cows and damage control after Gears 2 pimp slapping Resistence 2 all over the retail space.

Unlike lemmings, PS3 owners have alot more games to purchase this holiday season.  You cant expect them all to sell 1M+ when 90% of them dont flop

we have just as many games. While not exclusive, Last Remnant, Command and Conquer, Left 4 Dead are 360 games NOT on PS3, and I expect them all to perform well.

PS3 is hyped purely by a fanboy minority on the internet. The games dont sell in the real world for a reason.

Last Remnant is looking like a flop and the other 2 are better on the PC.  Im loving the crap out of the L4D demo on PC, and I cant see how this game would be equal on the 360......too fast paced and too much Y axis movement.

1. Yeah, because if they do, the more sells, the more successful the game is.
2. Even when they do come out, expect Gears to have sold more being the bigger series.
3. Now, is this fact? It's opinion.
4. People complain that the MP has been dumbed down, but last time I checked, it was praised for Horde and its online coop. Besides, knowing Epic, they'll still add onto the MP with new maps, tweaks, etc.

Gears, Madden and Halo aren't casual games. MLG tournaments prove this. When the Resistance series finally comes out with an installment worthy of league play, come talk to me.:lol:

And what does this change for gamers? Nothing. If you want to go down that road and try to play sales, let's start talking Wii and how games like Cooking Mama stomp over 90% of the sales of other successful IP's of this generation, or how the DS is the best selling console of the generation, or how the PS3 is outselling Xbox, etc. Sales of an individual game don't determine anything. Why you're trying to use it as ownage is way beyond me.

There is no Wii, only 360 vs PS3. Thats all lems and cows care about. SO when the top 360 game outsells the top PS3 game, thats cause for bragging.

The real world doesn't judge a game as a 'flop' because they didn't sell a million day one, you know people do buy games after the release date, right.

Umm, no. I thought we were going by "real world" rules, not SW rules? Your whole logic is flawed.

MGS4 is PS3's top game, and because this is SW, not the "real world", we go by scores not sales, and 10 > 9.

Yeah, R2 is a great game. But it seems pretty wierd that it is way behind Gears 2 sales-wise but it's been out longer:?
