The PS3 was outselling the Xbox 360 in Europe before September. Then it got even and was surpassed in October. November will be even bigger for Xbox 360, let alone December.

PS3 is not outselling (now) the Xbox 360.

There's no point of comparison between them. The CG shots are taken from a video while the others are direct feed from the game.

As good as KZ2 might look, if you put both videos in motion you will see how the animations, psychics, overall detail (texture, faces, etc...) is immensely superior in the CG trailer. No matter of discussion anyways, that's why it CGI.

Wow!

54% of the sales in Xbox 360. Outselling the combined version of PS3 and PC.

It seems that being the best version in consoles has decided the fate of this game. Piracy, on the other hand, keeps killing PC gaming.

For me, GTA IV, the most anticipated title of all time - not necessarily in the long run - only selling 27% more than Fallout 3 in the first week is inconceivable.

Only two games have comparable hype, GTA IV and Halo 3 (which sold much more if you take either Xbox 360 or PS3 sales only) and the reason is because those are games that appeal to both casuals and hardcores, and are massively publicized in the media.

Fallout 3 doesn't have any of those characteristics. It...

No one can deny that Microsoft Game Studios Soundtracks are of the best (if not THE best) in the market: Halo 3, Gears of War, Mass Effect, Kameo, Fable II.

One more for the collection!

It still holds some water.

In terms of Both reviews and sales, it seems that Resistance 2 is closer to the level of Fable II than Gears of War 2.

Fable I sold around 3 million copies. Resistance 1 sold around 3.2 million.

Fable II is rated 90% in metacritic.
Resistance 2 is rated 89% in metacritic.

On the other hand, Gears of War 1 sold 5.2 million units at launch and it rated 93-94% in metacritic (it varies as reviews get added) Which...

Correction:

GTA IV DID surpass that, but not by a long shot. Other than that, there's no other game that come close to that(Halo 3 sold 3.8M in 1 week... one console only btw)

It's true that the units would sell out eventually, but probably not in 1 week.

If these news were true, then this would be the second biggest launch of all time. Quite hard to believe considering the genre.

There must be a mistake. Is this "Shipped to stores" or "bought by consumers"?

I mean, Fallout was poised to be one of the biggest sellers of the year, but 4.7 million units in 1 week? That's insane. Not even GTA pulled that off.

I'm leaning to agree with GrieverSoul. I mean, Fallout was poised to be one of the biggest sellers of the year, but 4.7 million units in 1 week? That's insane. Not even GTA pulled that off.

So, since Gears is a Third Person Shooter, I guess they're performing a clever "titling" so get some clicks.

6307d ago 0 agree0 disagreeView comment

Sure, you can say that, when Gears of War 2 is technically, a Third Person Shooter, conveniently sweeping away the best shooter of the year Gears of War 2. Even so, I expect COD5 to get similar, if not better reviews than Resistance 2.

Anyways, take away that "F" off the title, and it will sound ridiculous. Very clever.

Bioshock: Overall better looking game is the Xbox 360
Dead Space: Better Framerate on the Xbox 360
Pure: Exact same Game.
Midnight Club: Los Angeles - Xbox 360 (Better AA, More Detail, Higher Resolution)
Spider-Man: Web of Shadows - Bad Game on Both, worse on PS3.
Star Wars: The Force Unleashed - Slight edge to the Xbox due to higher definition textures.

Xbox 360: 5
PS3: 0
Tie: 1

Winner: Xbox 360

The must have added a new low review recently. It was in the 90s just yesterday.

Anyways, the fact still remains that once again, Gears of War 2 has taken the shooter crown of this year, and by a long shot this time.

Resistance 2 has fallen below the 90s in Metacritic.

Largely surpassed by Gears of War 2 and now below Fable 2 too, which is at 90.

Insomniac has the hardest mission of all Sony studios: Compete with Epic.

At least in Metacritic, Resistance 2 has fallen below 90. It's been largely surpassed by Gears of War 2 and not it's also below Fable 2 which is in the 90s with the other Triple As.

What going on with N4G.com?

How the heck did this get approved !

6308d ago 1 agree1 disagreeView comment

If This means any fanboy with a website/blog reviewing the game to inflate of deflate the meta-score then thanks but NO THANKS.

Metacritic and Gamerankings are the only Meta Score Websites to be trusted, as hard as it may sound for N4G.com

By the way, HOW THE HELL IS THIS NEWS????

Texture loading issues will be fixed by installing the game in the HDD.

Read the TeamXbox review for details.
