It's so strange. I mean look at Arkham City's numbers yet there's an odd silence around the title lately. It's massively anticipated yet a bit quiet. Well I guess that's how Batman rolls before he makes his move so that's a bit ironic.

LOGICWINS5385d ago (Edited 5385d ago )

More people pre-ordered an HD remake of a decade old game over Uncharted 3? Daaaamn, incredible how Halo maintained such a HUGE following after all these years.

EDIT: Its also shocking to see Ghost Recon get more pre-orders than Saints Row: The Third. GR has very little hype behind it this year.

fluffydelusions5385d ago

Well this is US only where xbox has an 11 million+ lead over PS3.

totallysane5385d ago

and every single owner of xbox play call of duty regardless of age or version

aquamala5385d ago

^^^ did you see what's the #1 ps3 game on that list?

Jobesy5385d ago

Wow the Forza 4 numbers are really scary. For being hailed as the new king of racing sims 360 owners aren't showing any support.

And why don't pc owners buy games?

Number_135385d ago

EU is historically the racing game region. Plus forza 4 is pre-selling higher than forza 3 did and it went out to sell close to 5 million.

aquamala5385d ago

It doesn't count digital download sales, I would think thats howmost pc gamers buy games now

Prophet-Gamer5385d ago

I'm pretty sure an 11 million lead in NA will give the 360 a HUGE edge when it comes to software sales. Use some of that logic logicwins.

Hicken5384d ago (Edited 5384d ago )

He doesn't use logic.

If he did, he'd know that the original Halo's legacy alone is enough to warrant those numbers, regardless of what else is coming out.

He'd know that UC3 is already outperforming UC2 in pre-orders, and that that game sold extremely well.

He'd know that people REALLY want to get back to playing Master Chief, and that, like it or not, 360 owners ARE somewhat starved for exclusives this year.

But he doesn't use logic, so he doesn't know. Instead, he's likely to use some sort of pseudo-logic to spin the numbers into a negative... oh, he's already done that.

Edit: I've tagged him for trolling, stealth though it may be. But I highly doubt it'll amount to anything, since the mods apparently LIKE the way he trolls.

Dart895385d ago

OMG it's *looks at site VGchartz rolls eyes* xD.

Chocoboh5385d ago

Such low sales on the PC for BF3. This is why developers don't do PC now a days folks because pirates.

raytraceme5385d ago

VGC doesn't factor in digital sales. Also this is the Americas. Europe is a whole other continent whose numbers we don't know much about.

MultiConsoleGamer5385d ago

Not surprisingly COD:MW3 and BF3 are at the top of the list.

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

dveio70d ago

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

Jingsing69d ago

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Tanktopmaster9269d ago

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit69d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing69d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9269d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
