then why are so many kids playing halo 3? because they knew halo 1 and 2 were good? they probably weren't even around by the time the first xbox launched.
none of the games need advertisement, but face it, the fact that halo 3 DID have made a difference. it tells MORE ppl about the product, it's a well known fact. ur trying to tell me that by having ads in every single place didn't help the game? lol. that's a funny thought.
oh and also, halo 2 DID have a heavy marketing ca...
monster hunter 360
final fantasy 14 360
dragon quest 10 360
metal gear solid 5 360
gta5 360
if microsoft manages to make a deal in a way that they get monster hunter, final fantasy or dragon quest exclusively on the 360 in japan, even for 6 months, they will manage to shift the momentum in japan to their favor, and turn the tide worldwide.
or perhaps if mgs5 or gta5 is 360 only in EU or US, again even for 6 months, would be a major blow too.
mu...
it wasn't supposed to work, it was just a copy/paste of ur own comment.
dude honestly, give credit where credit is due.
halo 3 was marketed by microsoft like crazy.
mgs4 didn't have almost any advertisement and still is selling well and still out of stock on a lot of places as soon as more arrive. and u still don't see mgs4 ads. wrong move by sony? u judge that, don't really want to start on that one.
whatever way u want, mgs4 IS ps3 number one game.
we have 20 million 360's sold and only about 5 million sold of Gears1. That is a very low number. I thought Gears1 was supposed to be Microsoft's number 1 game. Looks like the majority of 360 owners don't care about Gears1.
jesus, and u even claim to be a gamer, cause u game and don't care about numbers. this made my day.
LOL
honestly, this is getting approved now?
*facepalm*
"I think the only thing that is final, is the fact PS3 will see FF13 "IN JAPAN" first."
that IS the whole point. getting it first will mean more consoles sold. period. the japanese don't really care if it's gonna be out 6 months later for whatever console. by then, 6 months have gone by that they missed final fantasy or dragon quest. they really DON'T miss on that.
yes, it really is the worst selling console in japan, and it does have a few more jrpgs, for now.
what microsoft lacks is a real system seller for japan, say final fantasy or dragon quest, and the true support from companies like nippon-ichi, or level-5.
while the 360 has made improvements in japan in comparison with xbox1, they will NEED final fantasy or dragon quest (exclusive) to even stand a chance of getting some of those niche rpgs, or even having a chance back there....
they moved to the ps3 a few months ago...
so as of now, ps3 is the lead platform for dead space, mirror's edge and madden 09
i'm with cinos123, as a big fan of videogame music, i never change the game soundtrack.NEVER.
and i really do think it's a great idea, if it's true. play the game with the music they created for it, and then if u want to play some more, u can use your own.
rock on, q-games, rock on.
i don't really agree with you, skadoosh.
as jwatt said, if more ppl buy a ps3, the more support it will get from developers.
as a gamer, i am quite interested to see these numbers. i like to know that the psp has been outselling the ds in japan for quite some this year, i like to know that since 2008 started the momentum worldwide has been in favor of the ps3. some ppl just like to know this kind of stuff. (like me =D)
why? because selling well in japan, means ...
europe had b/c at launch. the 60gb launch model in pal territories only had the graphics synthesizer from the ps2, they removed the emotion engine from that model (which is now emulated) and then the following pal models had the graphics synthesizer removed, which killed b/c in pal regions. glad i have a 60gb launch one =D
edit:nevermind my comment, i misunderstood "Europe has not had b/c since launch", thought i read "europe doesn't have b/c" lol
the 360 game has been out for quite some time in japan. like 2 years ago. the wii game (that is also available now in japan) will be a sequel to the 360 one. that's probably why ppl are disagreeing with you.
and if ur saying this game, as in, this franchise started on the wii, that's also wrong. it started on the ps2, then moved to the 360 and the last one's on the wii.
it's about time, what took them so long?
dude grow up. honestly.
gears of war came out 11/07/06
so far it's 5.19m
mgs4 came out 06/12/08
so far it's 2.66m
that's half of that 5 million gears sold 2 years down the road. in two months.
next time u want to give an example, try to be think things through. everyone else says "thank you".
i'm actually thinking i have magic hands tbh. i've never had a single issue with firmware updates, yet so many ppl start complaining every time one comes out. oh well tough luck.
well, why don't u try it on the pc? or the ps2? it's quite cheap nowadays for any platform.
yeah i played it, at the beggining i didn't really liked it but i gave it a few more tries too to try out the different classes, and i enjoyed it. it is a good demo, and perhaps a good game, can't really say without playing the full version.
it took a lot of flak because of those lame e3 showings, that dyack vs epic crap, and all that stuff. he should have just shut up and made the game.
but there's something that seems to affect only me: THAT FREAKING ANNOYING JUMP ANIMATION! lol...
u just had to make a 360 vs ps3 comment didn't you?
btw i'm not so sure, i mean they are releasing the ps3 demo on ff:ac complete.
but hey, who knows.
@ thenickel
dwd it's all about opinions.
go to the game critics awards site and check out the game that stood out with the most nominations this e3. lbp. THEY seem to find lbp NOT boring, and lots of ppl don't find it either.
lots of ppl don't like too human, anything wrong with that?
u really show ur true colors with that comment.
edit: u seem to have removed a big part of ur comment...oh well.
"sole over 6 million on 360 in no time"
LAUGHING
OUT
LOUD
REALLY
LOUD
2 years after and the game still hasn't sold 6 million, and ur saying it sold 6 million in no time? hahahaha
