When they started showing the PS3 outselling the Xbox 360 again.
I'm surprised at Battlefield's performance.
Gran Turismo was once the undisputable champ of the racing genre. No one can deny that. But those days have long passed. The last GT game to score AAA, or 90 or above on Metacritic, released in 2001.
The Forza series began in 2005 and all four releases have scored 90 or higher on Metacritic. The first, second, AND third highest rated racing games of this gen on any console are ALL Forza titles. It is pretty clear which racing franchise is leading the pack this gen, and it is ...
GT - Highest Rated Racing Series of LAST gen
Forza - Highest Rated Racing Series of THIS gen
Another conspiracy theory, huh?
Back when this talk of mods working on console versions of Skyrim was going on, Todd Howard was quoted as saying, "There's a chance it might happen one day, but I don't see it happening in time for launch."
A chance it might happen one day. You shouldn't have gotten your hopes up. But to blame Microsoft for this too is really outrageous.
It would be hard to find a place outside of N4G where people consider Gran Turismo to still be king. Maybe a PlayStation fansite?
Your list makes me RAGE.
Please point me to the reviews that gave the 360 version a lower score than the PS3 version, narutogameking.
Looks like another AAA exclusive title for the 360.
I don't know what's sadder. The original comment or the fact that people actually agreed with it.
Elsahdis' comment is referencing VGChartz. Hardly an accurate source for sales numbers. They were the ones who undertracked the 360 by 200,000 units in June in North America alone. The only real worldwide numbers we have to go by are from the big three's quarterly financial reports. So far we have numbers for the first 2 quarters of 2011:
FIRST HALF 2011
360: 4.4 million
PS3: 3.9 million
Wii: 2.92 million
Q1 2011
3...
That's what price cuts do. According to Sony's PR for last month's NPD, the console was facing "inventory constraints at retail". So this month we see the real effects of the $50 price cut.
Anything from Sonic 2 for me.
Aaand Major Nelson's site is down.
You thought the 360 was dead? Have you been living under a rock? This is its sixth year on the market and it's seeing some of its highest sales ever.
I stopped trusting VGChartz when they UNDERtracked the Xbox 360 by 200,000 units in one month in North America alone. Now I stick with Microsoft's, Sony's, and Nintendo's official financial reports. Third quarter numbers should be coming in by the end of this month. So far we have numbers for the first half of the year:
FIRST HALF 2011
360: 4.4 million
PS3: 3.9 million
Wii: 2.92 million
Q1 2011
360: 2.7m (
The only people that seem to be upset by the Xbox 360's game lineup are PS3 fanboys! They just can't get over it with their exclusive comparison lists and other nonsense. You never see Xbox users complaining about this supposed "lack of games". Meanwhile, we're simply enjoying our consoles.
Only 20 people voted? The results don't really mean anything then.
It has the sales to match the quality too. Forza 2 sold 4 million and Forza 3 has just about reached 5 million units sold. It is the 360's third best-selling exclusive franchise.
I'm having a hard time deciphering the meaning of this comment.
