Yes 3.5 million in 24 hours shattering records is a flop.

Thanks to Diablo 1/2 for that. It sold so well because of earlier success of "Diablo"  fanchise. Diablo 3 in itself it quite medicore game that wouldn't even sell half million copies if it was a new franchise. 

I got bored of playing beta really fast, it really felt dumbed down compared to D1&2. Maps lack sense of discovery, there are arrows pointing where to go with flashy entrances. Everything is so easy, I normally don't even care or notice I am fighting different mobs mostly and they all die with thier rudiculous over-the-top animations. NPC dialogues are also rudiculous and cheesy, did bilzzard hire 13 yr olds to write their story and dialogues?. Muisic in this game is almost non-existent or forgettable, where is the great music that first diablo games so memorable?

Not sure about history but Dark Souls outclasses all the games this gen (may be except demon souls).

both very medicore and boring games, not worth $4 IMO.

Brilliant tech demo. I hope the game turns out to be as good.

60% prod rebuys + year headstart + $100 cheaper and still 360 couldn't even get signifant sales lead over PS3??. Goes to show PS3 is a better selling console. Superior always win at the end:)

yay for teh superior 360 game library!

Xbox 360 :

Started having disc reading issues,PROD in less than 2 years, only few good exclusives. Overpriced compared to PS3 considering it didn't even had built in wireless, dedicated hard drive, blue ray player and or free online play to begin with.

fact1 - PS3 have vastly superior game library when combing its masterpieces like MGS4, Demon Souls, Uncharted and Heavy Rain.

fact2 - with 60% failure rate rebuys and cheaper price obviously 360 sold slightly higher. Also, Quality > Quantity. Reason why Kia sells more than Porsche.

fact3 - PS3 strength is in its exclusives. I for one prefer multi plats on PS3, some games have more content, online is free and blue ray is more durable.

So that leaves you with MGS, and Uncharted, two interactive movies. I think I'll take 360's vastly superior overall lineup as rated by GS thanks ;)

Fact 2- RROD was addressed years ago and is irrelevant to this duscussion.

Fact 3 - Who cares what some biased fanboy says he prefers? Digital Foundry finds 89% of multiplats on 360 superior.

Fact - Gamespot rated MGS4 10, higher than any 360 exclusive and given MGS4 and Demon Souls GOTY!. Oh, I can give more , LBP (9.0), Resistance 2 (9.0.) Killzone 2 (9.0), Infamouse 9.0, God of War 3 9.0. PS3 kills 360 library.. Sony, thanks for giving us reliable console and awesome game library that makes these lemmings so jealous:)
