LMFAO @ Darkride coming out from under the 'dark' bridge and is back on his hypocritical trolling way.
Let's recap..
The 360 continually posted gains month after month and Darkride is nowhere to be found especially when Sony showed YOY losses in NPD.
Last quarter Sony posted a 191 million dollars loss and the quarterly numbers showed the 360 actually was sold more than worldwide total than the 360.
Darkride...
@ M Easy
'OK so what is "significantly lower" and how do you know the budget for R3? You have no idea how much it cost to make. For all you know they're already in the black. You say lower than expected but who says what's expected and where do I find those numbers?'
It hilarious to see you flip flop now that the game is Resistance 3.
When just yesterday you tried to pretend Gears of War flopped even though it sold 3 m...
wrong place
LMFAO @ the usual fan kid dribble about Xbox exclusives from non-Xbox gamers.
Even the author of this article lost all credibility when he says that Crackdown 'still doesnt have a sequel yet'
The hypocrisy is hilarious when they come at 360 eclusives, yet EVERY other console subscribe to the same mantra..develop strong franchises that can sell future consoles for your system
There simply isn't a bigger franchise for Micrsof...
'It couldn't beat madden; BF3 and MW3 are going to destroy it within 3 days of their respective launches. Sorry I know the truth hurts but Gears isn't what it was in 2006.'
LMFAO @ the REAL 'truth' actually hurting YOU...
Gears 3 ISNT what it was in 2006..it's what it was in 2006..it's destroying those numbers
Let's help you out one more time...
NPD tracked August 28th to October 1...
I know I'm one of those..
Does sales equal Quality?
Do sales somehow mean there isn't quality?
LMAO @ the WAF..Classic! +bubz!
I'm with you man..get the games how you can get them. I know I'm an exeption to the rule with the amount of games I buy, but with Blockbuster (there is still one alive near me), Gamefly, and now Redbox renting is definately a viable option.
I stepped on my amazing Tritons (and cried after buring down my last house)..kidding..but I found out that you would have to completely rebuy the whole setup (instead of just re...
No matter how many people spin it..it has NOTHING to do with the amount of exclusives.
I laugh when people pretend that people who bought Little Big Planet 2 in January somehow hurt sales of Infamous 2 in June and Resistance 3 in September???
Gears of War 3 was the most anticipated exclusive of 2011 period. It simply is a testament of how big the game was to the 360 install base.
I'm laughing at people who have no idea that NPD coun...
'So basically Madden (worst madden in 5 years) outsold Gears'
LMAO @ pretending that Gears which did 3 million plus in a week is somehow below Madden.
So let's help you out
Total sales
#1 Madden 12 sales PS3 + 306 + Wii + PSP + PS2
#2 Gears of War exclusively on Xbox 360
Individual sales

Thx frag good to hear from someone who actually has it. And what your saying is pretty much along the lines with the reviews from Metacritic..the early reviews were 8+ out of 10.
Sweet..Game informer gave it an 8.5..that was huge..OXM gave it an 8..in fact it is getting pretty good recption with a Metacricic of 8.0. in fsct all the reviews have been 8.0 or higher..
Just sayin
Game informer had a different experience..8.5 FTW..
Salutes Double Fine for providing kids with an outlet like this.
All children are differen,t, but the game wisely is made for parents to play as well as kids..it;s all about the family interaction
Evil
Just my humble opinion...
If a game deserves and 8 in your opinion then it should get an 8. In the review itself is where you explain why and who it is targeted to. Parents are ALWAYS looking for games for kids that are actually good. I was blown away by the quality of Kinectimals as a whole and it got good reception, but as gaming consumers we all knew who it was ultimately targeted to ( but still a guilty pleasure for adults as well). In this case i found it interesting t...
Lol..your even going further down a rabbits hole and still missing the point.
Once again...I owned Eyepet even before Kinectimals and again nothing comes close to Kinectimals. You would know if you actually played both. Kinectimals interactivity surpassed everything before it. I still will always say it was the most slept on game last year. It's success technically is why you have Mass Effect 3 going voice as well. It brought the Milo to Kinect before Lionhead even had th...
@ Stan
We ALL know what Metacritic is..but what has happened is it's influence has made the final score have an infinite amount more influence than individual reviews. I listed the rest that matter.
Mags..Game Informer for the masses
Sites..IGN has the power to start major discussions on the web
The official game mags can have some influence with any other mag just fodder
for Metacritic.
The rest ...
You completely miss my point. You may have not had the pleasure of buying gifts or young children.
You can scour the toy marrket and you will see these psuedo video game slash computer set ups with these expensive cartridges that are ALL horrible in the end.
You will see kid licenses go to the Wii that are just as horrible and just quick cash-ins. (some make it to the PS3 and the 360)
But, Kinect changed everything, in fact nothing and ...
I'm going to be 100% real
There was a time when EGM had all the power, with Gamepro as a fun sidekick.
Fast forward and the landscape has changed..
Metacritic by far is the most influentual when it comes to reviews. It doesnt even matter what is written.
Game Informer by far is the most powerful magaine in the US by a landslide
OXM is huge for the 360
OPM and PSM are significant...
Because I already own 2 wheels (one for PS3 & one for the 360) and enjoy the game. But don't get it twisted, I love this hobby, but it's F-ing expensive.
I'm not lying when I say that in the last few weeks I bought a super expensive wireless Turtle Beach headset, 2 copies of Gears 3 (one was the 150 dollar Epic), NBA 2K12, Madden, Rage, Dark Souls, GunSlinger, Forza 4 and the ICO/SOTC collection.
I'm buying the Wireless Sped Wheel b...
Wow.DC2 got an 8 in Edge? definately must be good.
