Wow 1.1 million more in just one quarter, and pretty much all of that was in September, meaning Sony were tracking with equal numbers at $200 more.
Lol you can tell the fanboys in this thread have no idea what type of games the Japanese like.
1. Western games never do extremely well in Japan
2. Shooters never do well in Japan. Example, lifetime sales of Halo 3 in Japan, 120k. That's it. Gears - 80k.
3. Racing games are one of the most popular genres, and when you compare between genres, Forza 3 is quite a big failure. Example, when GT5 Prologue was released it shifted 110k in the first week (which i...
Of course PlayStation will survive till next generation. Gamecube failed miserably last gen, and here Nintendo are kicking everyone's ass. Don't underestimate Sony, they have the most first party devs and second party devs than Nintendo and MS combined.
This is ridiculous, what's the point of buying a DSi, if a year later they make one with bigger screens, why didn't they just wait and release this hardware.
I agree with her, every fanboy here is taking her statement out of context. R&C is aimed at a wider audience because of the way it is made, the dialogue, humor, and gameplay appeal to both young and old audiences. I can't play SMG for 20 mins without getting annoyed, the camera and lack of voice acting is very last gen, get your sh!t together nintendo
It's pre-alpha, and it's meant to come out in Spring. Kinda ridiculous, but we'll probably see it on the last possible day of spring.
Fake rumor made for hits imo. There is NO WAY Nintendo would allow data regarding the info to be released an entire year early. It would stop their sales of Wii consoles. Even the PS3 Slim rumor only came out a few months before the announcement, not an entire year.
Also Nintendo leaks are very rare, usually it's Sony or MS.
Definitely getting the VC2 demo, already played the peace walker demo.
Thank you Asda.
Btw Asda is owned by Walmart, just fyi for our American friends.
I like it, although not enough game shown and it's too long.
Surprising to see Forza 3 make such an impact, although it is a racing game and Japanese love racing as much as Europe. Nice to see Uncharted 2 still in the top 10, would have expected it to have lost it's legs in Japan.
true, but I think it's a good idea. Sony need to learn to do stuff like this, but they never do because they think that it is not worth blowing a lot of money on one slot. I mean, the X factor slot is going to be very expensive for MS, because it get's about 13 million viewers, and they're doing a whole ad break?!
Only thing I didn't like about District 9 and Cloverfield, both films were made to not finish on purpose. Which is annoying when you have no idea when the next film is coming out. Both films were good though.
For example, Matrix 1 had an ending, then when they did 2 and 3 it was like a continuous thing. LOTR came out 1 year after each other, so it didn't matter that they didn't have endings.
Is it a PSN title or full retail Blu-Ray?
I wouldn't be surprised if the SkyTV thing that MS has comes to PS3 in 6 months. Still imo it is pointless because you are paying £15 a month for a sub standard service (also dependent on internet connection). Instead you could pay £17 a month and get a free satellite dish & set top box installation, over the air (therefore stable) and more channels.
@Idle - I hate it when people say that just because you don't like ODST you're biased against 360? A LOT of people don't like ODST and think it was an expensive add on. Think about how much content there was, and now think about how much of it was actually new? They just repackaged it and sold a small campaign for $60. 100% Genuine truthful fact.
Anyone who still wants to diss this game, play Farenheit, and then talk. Otherwise STFU.
I'm probably getting both anyway, but GOW3 is probably the better game, due to it's epicness.
I think it's pretty much equal amount of 360s and PS3s in UK, although PS3 may have taken the lead recently.
Very nice sales, they've already covered their costs and gone into profit with 1 million sales. Everything from now on is just extra, still everyone needs to buy this game, it is amazing to say the least.
