I remember x360 being way ahead from ps3 2005 - 2009. With tons of exclusives in rpg, fps, even rts. Whut happend?

Did Monster Hunter World outsell Halo 5 on the XB1? If so I didn't know that and congrats to Capcon. If its comparing all systems MHW is on to just Halo 5 on XB1 than its as simple as saying "TOYOTA sell more cars to Ferrari" comparisions.

But ?

you know what I mean.

Persona 5  outsold  most Xbox exclusive games .

But I've never heard of that like "western niche crap" .

Why ?

Monster Hunter World is niche Jrpg !


And

Splatoon 2 will sell more than Halo 5.

Well yeah because a game pushing like 8,000,000 sales across 2 platforms and released WW IIRC is the same as a Japanese only game selling 300k :) 

Also, it doesn’t have shit to do with where they come from, it’s the style and gameplay of the games. Not everyone separates genres geographically. To me, JRPG is a genre, and there are plenty of JRPGs made outside of Japan. And plenty of Japanese studios have made western styled games. Hell, Capcom “westernized” Monster Hunter to get those sales you’re going on about and it worked for them. Dark Souls is an RPG made in Japan, would you call it a JRPG? I wouldn’t. You’re welcome to disagree. Since you’re quoting my thoughts in your post, now you know where I come from with it. I enjoy lots of games from Japan. The quirky JRPG stuff people rave about on here in system warz are not ones I enjoy, otherwise I’d probably still be primarily PS gamer, like I was when I was a teenager and enjoyed those games.

And it’s great that you enjoyed Persona. More power to you. No thanks, though. 

Nintendo been supporting handhelds and consoles at the same until very recently. Sony supported PSP and 3 at the same time. MS has no excuses

Do people saying MS is "new" to gaming forgot they have been making games to PC even before they launched X1??? We had Age of Empires in 1997 (3 years after PS1 released) and Microsoft Flight Simulator since 1982 (2 years after game & watch released)... Those 36 years of being involved in gaming will now be reduced to "10 years isn't enough to build studios"?

1st party games should have been the top priority. Until this happens with sustainability, Microsoft cannot be taken seriously as a gamer's platform.

I own both a Vita and an XBox One, and they kind of feel like they are taking the same path. I don't really even pay attention to either one anymore.
