Jumpin.  I stop taking you seriously after the comma.

It is true though that even if Sony has way more exclusives they also sell way less. But yeah, I'd still say Sony has better ones.

Way less than what? Halo? Yes. Way less than Gears? No, Uncharted comes quite close. They have a lot of 2m+ selling games, many 3m+ and a few 4m+. Only 360 MS exclusives (non-casual) that have sold 4m+ are Halo, Fable, one iteration of Forza, Gears. This "Sony exclusives sell way less" is honestly a myth. If you meant less than Nintendo then that's a given

The important part though is that lots of their (Sony's) exclusives are on a decline. They need to fix that somehow.

This, LBP 2, Resistance 3 & Killzone 3 are all doing less than their predecessors.

which ones?

- Gran Turismo 5 could sell less than GT4 but for now it selling at least on pair.
- God of War 3 sold more than previous.
- MGS4 is on track to be the best selling MGS ever (needs just more 500k sales)
- Killzone 2 sold way more than Killzone

I want to know which playstation exclusive sold less then previous ones... or did you mean this gen???

- U2 > U1 and Ucharted 3 is selling faster than U2.
- Killzone 3 will end selling more than Killzone 2.
- inFAMOUS 2 had more download than inFAMOUS... so hard to compare.
- LittleBigPlanet is a case... the LBP2 is not selling like the previous.
- Resistance and MotorStorm could be anothers cases.

You covered it up pretty much. And Killzone 3 should sell more than it does given the higher installbase.

Killzone 3 will end selling more... 600k to outsold... it sold 40k in 2012... K2 sold 10k... it will happen this year.

Bigger install base, slower sales, this year it probably won't sell more than 400K, so no.

With GoW, Uncharted doing more and most others on par. On 360 we have Forza 4 selling slower than Forza 3. A similar percentage given the number of 1st party exclusives

Point? I wasn't commenting on 360 games here, so don't exactly see the relevance to what Sony has to do.

- MGS4 is on track to be the best selling MGS ever (needs just more 500k sales)
- Killzone 2 sold way more than Killzone

I want to know which playstation exclusive sold less then previous ones... or did you mean this gen???

- U2 > U1 and Ucharted 3 is selling faster than U2.
- Killzone 3 will end selling more than Killzone 2.
- inFAMOUS 2 had more download than inFAMOUS... so hard to compare.
- LittleBigPlanet is a case... the LBP2 is not selling like the previous.
- Resistance and MotorStorm could be anothers cases.

You covered it up pretty much. And Killzone 3 should sell more than it does given the higher installbase.

Like Reach vs. Halo 3? Gears 3 even will take another year to reach the other Gears titles.

Reach is not a sequel, it's a prequel. That lowers sales just like with ODST, only not as much. And Gears of War 3 has already beaten GW2 sales in Japan, inducating higher interest even there.

Gears 1 also beat Gears 2 in Japan >_<

That's irrelevant. Gears 1 sales = Gears 3 sales. G3 will definitely win.

For it's always been Nintendo.

There's 3D Mario, 2D Mario, Zelda, Metroid, Mario Kart, Smash Bros, Donkey Kong Country, Kirby, Paper Mario, and Punch Out that are all exclusive IPs I care about.

For Sony, the exclusives I'm interested in are Uncharted, God of War, Ratchet and Clank and Metal Gear Solid (not sure if I can still consider it exclusive though).

For Microsoft, there's Gears of War, Dance Central and Lost Odyssey



Signature goes here!

Hm..

Microsony, because HD exclusives were more and better
