Why do some people think games sell more on XBOX 360? They don't.

I was going over a debate on YouTube and this guy named 7th Level threw out tons of game that even I didn't know had actually sold more on the PS3.

Those games include

Final Fantasy 13

Devil May Cry

Castlevania

Bayonetta

Resident Evil 5

Street Fighter 4

Super Street Fighter 4

Tekken 6

Blazeblue: Calamity Trigger

BlazBlue: Continuum Shift

Fist Of The North Star

Dynasty Warriors 6

Lost Planet 2

Nier

Resonance Of Fate

Sonic Sega All Stars Racing

Burnout Paradise

Dante's Inferno

Blur

Split/Second

Need For Speed: Shift

Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit

Batman Arkam Asylum

Just Cause 2

Dead Space

Prince Of Persia: The Forgotten Sands

Darksiders

Furthermore, in 2009 fiscal, Sony sold 115 million units of Software whereas XBOX 360 sold 103 million units.

And before anyone wants to discredit the source, I should warn you first.....they are based off of Sony's Fiscal Year reports

that ended March 31, 2010.

I'm not really into sales, but I get tired of all of the misinformation...hopefully this will help

I was going over a debate on YouTube

A good representation of everyone who posts on youtube

Tekken 5 isn't on the PS3.

Yay sales, they make the games so much more fun.soulitane

Because, if a game sells more than a million copies, it just must be the best!

Thank you.

Typo.

Shooters sell more on the 360 if you look at the numbers

There are many more games than those that sell more on 360... what source is he using for sales figures?

But yea, Japanese games usually sell better on PS3, while western games sell better on 360, with few exceptions.

Not that the 360's Pad is all that bad, it's just that the PS3's D-Pad is better.

So THATS why the Wii and 360 both enjoy a healthy now 160 million+ more software sales then the ps3 in total, and The ps3 wow! it managed to1 year outsell the 360 in software...by what was it? 12 million units.

Whats funny is even in your own list there are quite a few games that sold more on the 360 you didn't research them very well.

Games on the list here? Which games, if you don't mind?

Unnatural101

Yes, it is. It's raised just enough that it can easily roll with your thumb, so those who are into fighters should love it.

No one really knows, people just assume, no one has all these numbers to assume that multiplats generally sell more on 360 than on PS3 or not.FIipMode

i don't even remember the last time anybody made a big deal out of mps selling more on 360.

seriously, have not seen it brought up in like what? two years? maybe more? and back when it was brought up it was a legit concern since mps not selling well were exactly why games like ace combat 6 were never reeased on ps3.

software attach rate is calculated by games sold per console,the PS3 cannot be selling more games than the 360, if it did it would have a higher software attach rate, it's as simple as that reallydelta3074

For 2009, PS3 sold more software than XBOX 360.

[QUOTE="delta3074"]no they don't just assume, we have official software attach rates to go by, yes they do have all the numbers as well, hava eyou been hiding under a rock? http://www.afterdawn.com/news/article.cfm/2010/05/15/ps3_game_attach_rate_closes_in_on_xbox_360_sdelta3074

And let me guess that is the only year you want to talk about because if you include the other years you would see the 360 has sold more overall.CanYouDiglt

I like to stay current.

What other year would you like to talk about?

So...other than "Blur," the numbers do indeed tell that these titles sold more on the PS3. I got all my info off of the VGchartz. You can go look it up yourselves if you want.

But, I also thought I'd check out a few more titles. How about:

Vanquish (ps3) 218,493 (360) 164,451

Heavy Rain (ps3 exclusive) 1,560,856 Alan Wake (360 exclusive) 853,111

inFamous (ps3 exclusive) 1,808,659 Prototype (360 multiplat (remember that big rivalry? 1,205,564)

So...I think it's safe to say that this notion that the Xbox 360 is the king of all sales is, and has always been, a fabrication.

Was simply confirming the list. Do some research, put in the time, and list some numbers if you really want to debate. I did.

Shooters sell more on the 360 if you look at the numbers

ZIVX

About all these so called "numbers" people bring up?? WHERE do you see them? How do we know they are legit? Just wondering really..

why are we comparing a handfull of games when there are quite literally hundreds more that sold better on the 360? fist of the northstar? uh, ok you can have that one.

Because the argument is always made that titles sell better on 360, but never show the numbers. I just showed the numbers to confirm at least the list that the op had. I still haven't seen another list of numbers to coincide with the research I did stating otherwise. Just more statements of "This is a small list, hundreds more sell better on the 360." Start posting some numbers and walk-the-walk.
