From the teaser it looks like they're going for a R6 vegas vibe.
All I can say is:
Don't count on it. They probably just haven't seen it yet.
Not really. Most people get the Wii so it can be a WiiSports, WiiPlay, WiiFit player.
There are only 3-5 markets for the world. NTSC, PAL, and Asia. There might be another division for Central and South America and one for West Asia. Also, NA is only about 30-35% of world wide sales.
EDIT: While there are "lesser" markets, They are all part of the same three major regions and their respective formats. It's like saying that Canada is completely different from the US; the point is it doesn't matter, the sales are compiled by region. While various site...
I call bullshit. Burnout only sold 677K in US? That seems really low. Especially considering that Isn't it a greatest hits title for both the 360 and the PS3?
EDIT: But if the numbers are true it just shows how bad jrpgs sell on the 360.
So essentially, this article says Sony games are unpopular. This guy needs to learn about a little thing called research. His reasons why Sony games are "unpopular" are: Advertising (or lack thereof); Reliance on 3rd parties; lack of Brand Identity; and lack of legacy.
He has a point about advertising. Sony doesn not market their games as well as MS or Nintendo.
As for reliance on 3rd parties, it's almost too hard to know where to begin. Did he forget t...

My point was that people are going apeshit over Killzone 2's numbers when there are other fanboy tenets being shattered. I agree that the PS3 controller has a better dpad. That doesn't change the fact that most 360 fanboys always talk about how multiplats always sell so much better on the 360 than they sell on the PS3 and it's ignored that the PS3 version sold almost as much.
As to the COD:WaW being on the top 10 was that there were new releases and a 5 month old game is still ...
Of course it will. I mean that's why MS waited untill March to get a full month's reporting instead of just a couple days. Add to that the Halo name and it will sell big. The only question is how well Killzone 2 will do with RE5 coming out and Wii___ taking up all the other spots.
Can we all help it if there was nothing else good to play on the 360 at that time last year? Also, just because you're lemmings doesn't mean that the game is really that good.
EDIT: I like how everyone is focusing on Killzone 2 and ignoring the rest of the data.
For example, SF4 on 360 only did about 43K more than PS3. Which is sad considering that the 360 has millions of more units in the US than the PS3. And you can't use the "established franchise" ...
All I can say is "Holy Sh1t!" at all the numbers. February is usually a slow month, also considering the recession.
As to all the fanboys laughing about Killzone 2: What the hell is wrong with people? i mean besides the standard fanboy stupidity. Killzone 2 was out for at most a week of reporting, depending on when NPD cut off at, and it was 5th in that time. How is that a dissappointment. Oh, I forgot, you're only used to almost a month's worth of sales time to ensur...
The kettle is pointing and laughing.
OMFG!!!!!!!!! An interebbz site sez teh 360 breaks! Oh noes! There will be wailing and gnashing of teeth.! Saves us Jeebus, save us!
No, they don't actually. With games there is a copyright law that prevents them from reselling it and since they can't make any money off of it they won't take them back if the game has been opened. A lot of times if you try and say it doesn't work, they'll give you a new copy and open it so you can't try to return it later.
While HW might be a good console RTS, it doesn't mean that MS isn't banking on people being interested in it because of the Halo name being attached to it....
It still won't help it beat the Wii. And MS still needs to make a profit off of it, but who knows, maybe they'll start putting them in boxes of Crackers Jacks.
This is starting to feel like right before E3 2007 when rumors were flying around and Sony kept saying no up until they started saying yes. Sony needs a price cut to spur sales as even though it's a good value, most people don't realize it. They also need a price cut because they don't market for sh1t. Think about it, Lexus and Infiniti both sell cars that are much more expensve than other options and they do it by marketing them. Sony needs to pony up somewhere, either with marketing or a pr...
What's funny is the people arguing about MS owning the publshing rights to ME. They do, on the 360, or at least they did. I don't know for sure since the Bioware buyout. If you look at the PC version of ME, it is published by EA. When has EA ever, ever been about anything other than making an assload of money. Multi-platform equals more money for EA, that's why they did a version of Orange Box for the PS3. I'm not saying it is coming to the PS3 for sure, but there is still at least a 50/50 sh...
I don't think that's possible seeing as how the teaser trailer shows Shepard turned into a Geth. So while the overall story might be continued, I don't think you can use the same character again. That means there is no real reason not to bring it to the PS3.
EDIT BELOW: Just like the Xbox got MGS2 but not the original?
I call bullshit on you adding LBP on that list. The only way LBP could be taking up that much space on your HDD is if you had downloaded everything there is. The game data is only about 500 MB, which is much much different than a 5 gig install.
