I believe that's actually a bad thing.
Find an empty Kiosk Near You! Or wait until the homeless guy is done peeing inside of it.
Well, I'll be. An AAA Halo game? That's almost unheard of!
So Sony is focusing on their 13 months of YoY growth? I wonder what they'll be talking about next month since they'll still be fourth place in sales, but now they'll also have a dramatic YoY decline since the PS3 Slim launched last September. Maybe they can talk about Move having buttons or how the PS1 dominated back in the day...
That's one of the biggest gaps I've ever seen between 1st and 2nd place, and 3rd place.

Thanks for showing us the new dashboard Fat Bastard from Austin Powers.

Damn! I didn't even think of Kinect games having achievements. Being an achievement whore, it looks like I'll actually have to buy Kinect and play these games.
I didn't know that every game coming out in 2011 was already announced. And 10 doesn't seem like much to brag about. Both the 360 and Wii alone probably have more than 10 announced already. Just because you don't know them doesn't mean they don't exist.
And why are you talking about this anyway? No 360 fanboy came in here and talked about sales before you posted that comment, did they? Seems rather unnecessary.

Yes, multiplatform at launch: 360, PC
Another platform a year later: PS3
Reach will definitely sell more than Halo 3. It already has more preorders than Modern Warfare 2, which in turn had more preorders than Halo 3. It is also the last Halo game from Bungie and is set to be the best in the series.
Gran Turismo 5's preorders are actually laughable in comparison. Fable III is outpacing it, and as much as I hate to say it, Kinect Adventures! is actually closing in on it in American preorders. In fact, with the way things are looking, GT5 would b...
Of course not. That's when they release a new model that previous customers by a new one. Like the PS3 Slim and the Xbox 360 S. It will be the same for the Kinect 360 bundle. It will only be new customers buying it.
Anyway, this pre-order increase is to be expected. Pre-orders climb the most just before the new game or product in question is released. Move releases next week, right?
Japan is the smallest region for sales, though. Here are hardware sales for the PS3 for the week of Sep. 4:
Americas: 61,961
Japan: 21,315
EMEAA: 59,405
Notice how Japan only puts up a third of the other region's sales? Now note how despite Japan refusing to buy American products, the 360 still surpasses the PS3 in worldwide sales despite doing poorly in Japan. Here are the 360 sales for Sep. 4:
Americas: 97,329
Ja...
In the US, this marks the 8th month in a row the 360 has outsold the PS3, the 3rd month in a row it has outsold the Wii, and the 2nd month in a row it has outsold the DS. Microsoft is on a roll!
@Philoctetes
What the hell are you talking about? Not having any games to play? According to Metacritic, 145 titles have released for the 360 so far in 2010, versus 127 for the PS3. Microsoft definitely uses the money to give back to the consumers with great games, ex...

The PlayStation brand hasn't dominated anything since the release of the PS3. It's total Wii domination, with Xbox and PlayStation fighting back and forth for 2nd place.
You're absolutely right! PS3 exclusives are all you need. I mean, who would want crap like Assassin's Creed, Street Fighter IV, Fallout, Grand Theft Auto, Red Dead Redemption, Call of Duty, BioShock, The Elder Scrolls, Rock Band, Arkham Asylum, Portal, Dead Space, Battlefield, Final Fantasy, Metal Gear Solid, Dragon Age, and Resident Evil?
Elder Scrolls V + Kinect = Epic @ss sh!t
Also, being a PC/360 exclusive would probably serve the best experience.
IGN said the performance was not consistent. Sometimes the experience was great, and other times lag completely ruined the experience. If someone says something negative about Move, I guess we just have to classify them as 360 fanboys or just pretend that they never said it.
Last paragraph of the review.
