Death, you're way too obsessed with marketshare blips. Like it shouldn't fluctuate. Look at how much Nintendo has been up and down, and up and down again over 30 years. 50 million here, 20 million there, 100 million here, 5 million there.
Following up a meager 25million debut with one year of no competition, Xbox darn well better have gained market share.
Sony abandoned multiplayer?!
GOW Ascension, TLOU, Dragons Crown, GT6, Tekken Revolution, MLB13 The Show were all PS3 exclusives -last year- with multiplayer. Hell, even Beyond Two Souls and Puppeteer had couch co-op!
One dimensional? Because Ni No Kuni was sooo much like Gears of War Judgment. You can't rewrite history that's still fresh in everybody's minds. This Yusuf guy is just as greasy
"...so in that respect people hav...
"the xbox 360 is surely ahead of playstation 3 not that I care ..I'm just posting facts"
Facts?
PS3: 82.77
360: 81.28

And they tend to lowball PS to boot
Nah. Their movies still make hundreds of millions of dollars, like 007 and Amazing Spider-man
@georgenoob
Any particular reason you omitted PS4 console exclusives Towerfall Ascension (87%), Resogun (84%), MLB14 The Show (83%), Outlast (78%) from your list but remembered Knack's 57%?
Is it cuz Towerfall is rated higher than Titanfall? Cuz Resogun and MLB rated higher than every other Xbone console exclusive on your list? I think I just answered my own question.
"Anyone with a PC can play 90% of PS4's gaming library."

@Illusive
Actually, TLOU/LBP/UC2 are all over 5million lifetimers. That's already 16mil to 9mil, and I could throw in another couple 5-ers from MGS4 and GOW3. Hell the last two UC games both cleared 6million. Your "combined" math is riding shortbus, especially when GranTurismo5 did 11 on its own.
Every quote and press release out there implies MS were quite territorial over MassEffect. They didn't let it go so PS owners could enjoy ME1, lol. They'd brag the opposite:
"The original Mass Effect is absolutely an Xbox 360 exclusive, making Xbox 360 the only place to get the full Mass Effect experience.”

@melvin
What on earth does Halo4 have to do with TLOU? Could just as easily cherry pick a "GT5 outsells Halo4" quote and bring it back to square one.
@pakua
You have no idea the reality what exclusives sell. In 2013 alone Playstation had more exclusives hit a million than Nintendo or MS combined. GOW Ascension, NiNoKuni, TLOU, Tales of Xilia, Beyond Two Souls, GT6.
Heck, the other two big guys won't even HAVE a licensed mlb baseball game AT ALL this year so exclusive MLB The Show wins that sales battle by default. It always outperformed the multiplat 2K one anyways.
Even for the stuff that doe...
HD remakes are universal. Didn't Fable Anniversary just come out for Xbox, with Halo2 in the pipeline to follow up Halo Anniversary?
If "Sony can't afford to pay devs for DLC first dibs", wtf are they doing with EXCLUSIVE AC4 AVELINE DLC http://m.ca.ign.com/wikis/a... ?! lol. It's like the short bus in here.
Jack Thompson had a degree too. There's no school for common sense. And tbh, if I went through all the same edumacation that Pachter did , I wouldn't be wasting it talking about videogames on GTTV.
You gonna borrow me your 60gb BC PS3 everytime I wanna play an upscaled PS2 game, lol? Cuz 60gb BC PS3's stopped being produced and shipped like...forever ago. I don't have one. Most people don't have launch PS3's. This service is for them. Ie. the majority
If you just wanna lose a week playing MaxPayne 2, manhunt 2, spyro 2, Incredible Hulk ultimate destruction, xmen legends and indigo prophecy, but don't wanna pay 5-10 bucks a pop on psn or buy back a PS...
Chronicle was good, but his adaptation of FF sounds like a disaster in the making. From Michael B Jordan to the script leaks. Fox should just let the rights revert to Marvel/Disney
This!!! The PS4 should at LEAST be equal to the PS3 in terms of USB flashdrive cut/copy/paste/playback, not WORSE! They need to take the training wheels off this thing.
This. Started out funny then went Simple Jack over numbers.
TLOU sold over 4 million in only 6 months last year. Who in their right mind would call out TLOU when thats FOUR TIMES more than the latest Gears of War game sold?!
Heck, God of War Ascension sold more than Gears Judgment last year, as did GT6 in one month. What an odd flag Penello & Hryb just saluted.
Steambox won't do spit. Didn't valve already say they aren't doing exclusives? So what's the point? Especially with more expensive skus?
If Nintendo are having a tough go at it, what dent is valve gonna make with even less on the table? Half Life 3 development hell isn't a console seller
Puppeteer blows Knack out of the water. Shoulda been a PS4 IP for sure. Wrong horse in the wrong race
Dude your numbers are so off. You're not only cherry picking but under tracking killzone as well. Both infamous games outsold both crackdowns, gran turismo has always outsold forza by a country mile. LBP1 alone did over 5 million. God of War has always sold millions, naughty dog launched 2 new IPs this gen and sold millions on every title. Hell, Bungie isn't even a first party anymore. What's your angle?
PS2 days? Sony has various exclusive platformers on the PS3 like Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time, several Ratchet&Clanks, a couple LittleBigPlanets, Puppeteer. That's not even counting multiplats like Rayman.
Even niche genres like car combat -TwistedMetal- and top down swords'n'sorcery -3D Dot Game Heroes- got at-bats. People don't look hard enough
