This is why the 360 is known as the shooter console, because that's all fanboys hype.

rofl no. it's called a shooter console cause fanboys for other systems don't know what they're talking about and think this is still the original xbox. shooters are in the minority and halo 3 is currently the only hyped shooter.

Shooters ont the 360 might be in the minority, but they are still the most talked about amongst 360 fans, at least that's what I get from my observations.

And the Wii games are not floping the left and to the right.

Wake up, it's time to get back to reality.

Why are people acting like PS3 sales are garbage? It doubled its sales from last June. Sold 98k in June(5 week period) and 159k in July(4 week period). 98,000/5= 20K per week. 159,000/4= 40K per week. Sony(and gamestop) even said themselves that the sales doubled. People were impressed when they heard that....but now that the numbers are official, they are terrible? You only think they are so terrible cause 360 still outsold it. That 11k sales difference betweem 360 and PS3 has no signifigant value except to "claim ownage". PS3 sells 20k a week in Japan, and 360 sells 3k there, so that alone more than levels out this extra 11k...NPD is USA only, people tend to forget this or they're just ignorant of the rest of world....

The real surprise of this NPD is how Wii managed to sell 400k in just 4 weeks. Thats even more than it sold in the last NPD, which was 5 weeks.

But hey, we will have to wait and see how things play out over the next few months.

They'll hyping Mass Effect and that's not a shooter.

Neither is Banjo-Kazooie 3, but you get my point.

This game will be awesome, but graphically it's not as impressive as other shooters.

Using that logic, the PS3 isn't a gaming console at all because it doesn't have any AAA games of any genre.

No, it's not the same. Read it again, maybe you'll get it this time.Anyways, what's this got to do with the PS3?

[QUOTE="plat1num913"]ps3 was so hot on amazon and it still didnt sell more then 360 WTF!Pimpshigity21

I suspect that Sony could lower their prices to match those of their 360 counterparts and they still would not be able to sell more than the 360.

It went from $600 down to $500, which is still above the price of the 360, and it almost sold as much as the 360.

Now, why wouldn't it be able to sell more unitsif it went down to the price of the 360?

Sony produced more shovelware and mediocre-bad titles with the ps2 since the Atari. What's the ratio with the ps2, for every 20-30 titles released there might be one AA or AAA title. So far almost half of the 360 library is AA. Not to mentionthe 360 has more AA titles alone, than the ps3 has total games.

You do realize that most of those games were third party and Sony had nothing to do with them?

You can't blame Sony for the work of third party developers.

This thread just fails.
