Why didn't you support you're overhyped "definitive" racer then? It sold only 150k while KZ2 sold 350k+ in half the time. How do you explain that bot?
Wow, shutupandplay. I used to think you were on of the less dumb bots on this site, but I see now, you're just like the rest of them. Not even trying anymore are ya? It's kinda sad that most of the games you mentioned are multiplat which can be played on the Ps3 or PC.
Competition from Nintendo only who decided to abandon it's loyal fans. MS isn't in anyway "competition. The PS3 has been selling MORE and FASTER than the could ever hope, not to mention the FACT that the 360 is ahead ONLY BECAUSE OF THE YEAR HEAD START.
Tell me something, if you're in a race and you start running 1 minute before your opponent. You're ahead right? But are you REALLY winning? No, you're just ahead not becuase of skill or training but becuase of a pathetic hea...

For the last time man, get it through your head. The only 360 games that sell better than PS3 exclusives are Gears and Halo. Other than that, most 360 games sells on par or less than Ps3 exclusives. Games such as Dead Rising and Mass Effect have sold the same as KZ2 and less than MGS4. Most PS3 exclusives sell over 1 million which is great. Most games don't even reach that number. If PS3 exclusives sell "Ok" how do you explain Forza 3? KZ2 sold 350k+ in TWO days,...
You forget, however, that casuals far outnumber the core gamers. To them, Wii Sports and Wii Fit is the best (since of course it sells so much right?) I"m sure you don't think those two games are by any definition good? Right? And you missed my point.
What I'm saying is, PS3 exclusives get deducted points for "not being original" or "innovative" yet games like MW2 and L4D2 which are the same game with added weapons and different maps get a free pass.
I don't like Metacritic, becuase of it's "weighted average" system.
Yep, since it's PS3 exclusive it must for some reason completely offer a new experience. But of course, MW2, Halo ODST, and L4D2 (ALL THE SAME GAME WITH A FEW ADDITIONS) are amazing innovating titles!!! Seriously, if you guys can't see how bias this is, I feel bad for you.
2009 is definitely the year of the PS3 (though I think PS3 also won 2008). It has both the best games and great sales.
I predict
1. Wii
2. PS3
3. Xbox 360
I'm sure once PS3 sales really get rolling the 360 won't sell as much world wide. It may still sell decently NA, but it just doesn't have the price advantage anymore.
EDIT:
@Kaveti
MS should really decide. When they came into this gen, they wanted to be like Sony and they didn't care how much money they had to fork over. Now, all of a sudden, they've changed their minds and are following Nintend...
Wow, I must say that's impressive, however I also say that MW2 is perhaps the best examples of why sales =/= quality.
OF COURSE NOT!!! It doesn't have Halo in the name therefore it's not a flop. Wait... that doesn't make sense!?!?
LMAO, GOW collection isn't an "expansion" (you must be thinking about L4D2 or Halo ODST). It's what people call a "remaster." Look it up. hahaha!
Poor little johnny. He must be very disappointed.
Thetruth, answer me a question. Why has the PS3 been constantly outselling the 360 and also selling faster than the 360 since launch. You also seem to forget that the 360 has a ONE year head start which certainly compliments to it's lead against the PS3.
Without the one year, MS would be down the toilet right now and the 360 wouldn't have sold nearly as much. and YOU KNOW THAT. Don't act like the 360 is doing so great. MS has lost billions due to RROD and other hardware issues. T...
At the rate the PS3 is going, it WILL sell 100 million units when all is set and done (remember the 10 year cycle). The PS3 has all the games that made the PS2 one of the best consoles ever. Even though MS really wants the 360 to be seen as the successor, Sony knows very well only the PS3 can do that as only the PS3 has all the beloved Playstation franchises. Oh, and the domination won't begin in 2010, it has already begun. Let's not forget the 360 ONE YEAR HEADSTART.
Anyways, IM...
I'm guessing they haven't figured out how to properly make use of the wii motion controls.
awesome.
lol, MW2 9.75?! WTF? L4D2 9.5!?
They might as well give it a 10, taking off .25 and .50 points won't get them their credibility back.
EA has really turned around this gen. Dead space is one of my favorites and I really enjoyed Mirror's Edge. Not to mention the great job they've done with Bad Company.
Not quite dead, but not as popular as before. With the price advantage gone, MS is screwed. They can't sell their system based on multiple features or quality or games. They need to drop the price even more or people will just go to PS3.
