I'm surprised Halo outsold tales of graces, I never would have seen that coming.

Time for hype

No major PS3 exclusive came in 2012, unlike 2011 and 2013...

Like 360 having 2010 in their grasp. They alternate years sure, but hey the results are what they are. With Sonys studios, strange they let this year slip by.

Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.

One Piece is missing from the PS3 list. Its the biggest PS3 exclusive of the Year with ~900k sold in Japan.

Im curious - What were the highest 360 exclusives before Halo? Kinect Star Wars?

Forza Horizon (probably)

My prediction threads:

Wii U will sell under 40m units (made on 14th September 2012)

PS Vita will sell under 20m units (made on 30th September 2012)

Wii U will sell under 7m in 2013 - I was right

Halo 4 first 9 weeks sales prediction

PS4 to be down YOY in 2015

Another interesting fact Twilight Breaking Dawn Part 2 so far earned $593 million worldwide gross.

Making it 81st all time money earner.

Movie goer demographics are very diverse. These games I listed......appeal to pretty much the same type of gamer.Bad analogy

Actually it's a very apt analogy since they are both an products of an old franchise with a dedicated audience.

No because Twilight appeals to teenage girls. These games mostly all appeal to the male 12-28 demographic.

Yep. One Piece: Pirate Mosou sold 960k so far. Number 51 in the Yearly chart.

Interestingly... Before Halo released, Kinect Star Wars was indeed the highest selling 360 exclusive this Year. Sitting at 970k.

Best stat there is to debate Software?

http://www.vgchartz.com/yearly/2012/Global/

Look there.

360 2012 SW - 98.5 Million
PS3 2012 SW - 98 Million

~11 Million units of 360 Software has come from 2 games in 2 Weeks. Halo and CoD are huge. Blops 2 on PS3 sold more on launch Week than Halo 4 did in 2 Weeks. Really is huge.
