[QUOTE="ogvampire"][QUOTE="Dilrod"] PS3 users have a much more diverse taste then 360 or wii users.. it was the same with the playstation 2. Many titles had decent sales, but only a few had spectacular. 3.5million is nothing to sneeze at though. FIipMode
are you sure about that? the ps3's top 6 best selling games are shooters (4 of them being fps's) :|
Out of its top 5 only 2 are shooters, Since GT5P replaces WaW in the top 5. It has over 4 million sold PlayStation 3 games that have sold or shipped at least one million copies. Gran Turismo 5 Prologue (4.65 million)[129] Uncharted 2: Among Thieves (3.5 million)[130] MotorStorm (3.31 million)[131] Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots (3 million shipped)[132] Grand Theft Auto IV (2.659 million approximately: 1.89 million in US,[28] 169,000 in Japan,[133] 600,000 in UK)[34] Uncharted: Drake's Fortune (2.6 million)[134][135] Resistance: Fall of Man (2.5 million)[136] Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 (2.5 million approximately; 1.9 million in the US, 600,000 in UK)[34]according to wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_best-selling_video_games#PlayStation_3- yes not the best source but it lists its sources in the article - and don't need exact numbers)
out of the top 8 - 2 are racers and 6 are shooters or have shooting as a major element. Yes, very, very diverse.
EDIT an alternative (using VGC numbers I think)
http://www.listal.com/list/bestselling-ps3-gamesout of the top 10 7 shooters (ish), 2 racers and Assassins creed, an dthe top 6 (if you include GTA has having shooter elements as I'm sure you would for other platforms when making a point) all of them have strong shooter elements.
