I didn't even see the numbers on the left. That makes much more sense haha.

CouldHaveYelledUiiW4629d ago

Agree,

Nintendo not having "those games" will definitely be a negative.

I don't play them but lots of people do, obviously.

Army_of_Darkness4629d ago

Sony is ending strong with the ps3 and beginning strong with the ps4. I would say it's playstation domination all over again.

CouldHaveYelledUiiW4628d ago

@ Army_of

Why did you need to tell me this? As if it were a reply to my post.
Is this suppose to be another troll the "Fanboy" attempt?

I think I have said plenty of times that I want to buy a PS3 after a price drop and a PS4.

black0o4629d ago

and i think ps3 will keep this up since B2S,GT6 .... TOX2 are a system sellers

ZBlacktt4629d ago

Saints Row IV, my god so overrated. I just stopped mid way to take a break. So meh.....

Software_Lover4629d ago

Most are up, good job (even though I hate numbers).

Wii-u is down????????

Bathyj4629d ago

19% jump? Whoa, what brought that on?

GenericNameHere4629d ago

Madden 25, FFXIV A Realm Reborn, and JoJo's Bizzare Adventure.

Inception4629d ago

And don't forget: a price cut. $200 is a sweet spot for PS3 and it's massive library.

Game4life4629d ago

no price cut just now model but I suppose you could say its a price cut if you want

Inception4629d ago

@Game4life

Well i consider that new model as unofficial price cut. But i think sony will announce official price cut for japan on this year TGS. Sony will keep their momentum as high as possible, especially when PS3 got tons of high profile games on this year alone.

Game4life4629d ago

pretty sure those numbers will keep going up from here.I think the holiday rush may come a little early for playstatkion this year. Theres a good stream of content only on ps3 so it makes sense.

sept
gta v
puppeteer
kingdom hearts

october
battlefield
beyond
rain
AC 4

November
cod
watch dogs

decmber
Gran tursimo 6

unknown when but coming this year
final fantasy x hd
Ratchet and clank

Personally i think that alone is a good selection. Thats the bigger stuff too

Bathyj4629d ago (Edited 4629d ago )

Man PS3 just keeps on giving, like its dad and its grandad before it. What a strong lineup so late in its lifecycle.

After playing the demo I'm looking forward to Puppeteer. People might not have thought it from the lack of hype but that game it gorgeous. Really amazing lighting.

And Rain has had me intrigued since it was revealed. Hoping that turns out great as well.

Knushwood Butt4629d ago

Puppeteer is pretty cool.

Takes a bit of getting used to at first as you need to control 2 characters at the same time (I guess that was covered in the demo, which I didn't play), but once you get the hang of it the game starts to flow.

Really great art direction.

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle13d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Relientk7713d ago

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments

Crazy to think the WII is to the Switch 2, as the NES was to the WII back then. 20 Year difference.

jznrpg19d ago

My wife asks me to bust it out (heh) everyone once in a while to play bowling and tennis with the kids. There was a ton of slop on it but some good stuff as well.

Smellsforfree19d ago

Wii was great but boy howdy did it cause Microsoft to go on a dark walk with the Kinect and the disastrous XBox One launch that they arguably never recovered from.

Loktai19d ago

Not nostalgic for me.. I was there.. anyone who wasnt a little kid realized it was a gamecube with shit tacked onto it, it was the "joke" system and was well below even the switch in terms of comparing it to the latest machines at the time. The machine was well loved by young people and "casual gamers" who now remember it 20 years on, or in most cases more of its sales came in the 15-20 years ago range not right at launch- but again its not nostalgic for people who were "gamers" then really, just for those who ended up with one in their house, the games , graphics, interface and online features were archaic already in 2006.
