In the gaming world, there has been a recent trend of a certain console manufacturers (who would remain namelss) fanboys that would claim that Halo 3's success is due to the fact that it's the greatest thing since Square ditched Nintendo's cartridge based platform to make games on C.D for Sony back in '95'.and constantly compare its sales without any incite to that of PS3 exclusive titles.   "With out any incite you say"

Halo 3 IS a very successful game, but what other 'AAA' exclusive titles on the Xbox 360 platform does it have to contend with. Gears i hear you scream, and for all you people who screamed Gears ... you're correct (and also stop shouting in the back while reading this) but apart from that what else is there, fable 2 and left 4 dead both did well,sales wise but they hardly set the gaming world alight... who's really talking about them now. the only thing that sparked any major interest in left 4 dead was the rumor of it coming to the PS3, apart from that the games pretty much yesterdays news as the position on the Xbox most played charts always shows.

if you had been counting, thats only two quality 'AAA' exclusives for the Xbox. Viva Pinata, Banjo kazooee: Nuts and Bolts, Too Human, Perfect Dark, Ninety-Nine Nights are all flops, or mediocre titles at best, and this is not fanboism, this is fact. i can't imagine most Xbox 360 owners are hankering for Kameo 2:deli of fate.

Now for the incite part:

So lets consider the amount of 'AAA' exclusive titles for the PS3 (for the sake of fanboys out there, we'll only list the ones that has sold over a million) we have MGS4, Uncharted, Heavenly Sword, LBP, Resistance: Fall of Man, Motorstorm, Killzone 2.

Now using incite if there are only 2 'AAA' exclusive titles on the Xbox , you can expect them to have a higher sales rate because of their fewer number, where compared to the PS3 and remember we are only talking about the million and above sellers, not all of the exclusive titles has a broader range of titles to choose from, so you can expect sales to be spread across different titles. Look at it this way, Killzone 2 has been released, and inFamous, Uncharted 2, Heavy Rain, God of War 3, White Knight Chronicles, and M.A.G are all coming exclusively to the PS3, This Year.

Now compare that (the quantity not the quality) to the 2 games that Microsoft is going to announce for the Xbox, this year at E3.

u might be right, thats why it had a huge opening anyways....

She knows nothing. Is this even news .. its some random blog!

I love how it's always ps3 owners that post these threads. Insecure much?

The 360 has plenty of exclusives the only people that don't know that is people that don't own one and haters in general.

Halo 3 is popular because its a damn good game.
Get over it, PS3 fanboys.

People are, like usual, taking those kinds of articles in the wrong way. It's just a way of seeing things, just an opinion. I'm not saying that Halo 3 is bad game or anything...I actually played it a little with a friend and I enjoyed it.

BTW I'm am in no way a fanboy of any console and I really don't understand what makes you think so. I am not the one who wrote the article but I thought the opinion was interesting.

whats the point of this? that blog was pointless. The fact is Halo 3 sold well because it was the successor to halo 2. Millions of people bought a 360 just for Halo 3. It is the epitamy (sry bout the spelling) of console FPS in regards to fun and multiplayer

Don't worry, you are only the 378th troll to use that excuse.

As pswii360 said, it's the accepted form of trolling in this forum.

Lol, exactly, 1337 Gamer. Halo 3 sold well because Halo and Halo 2 sold well.

Also, if this person would have taken 2 seconds she could have found much more games that are AAA and above 1 million sales on the 360.

Boutros, if you think this "opinion" is needed, I pity you. This is a fanboy rant blog with all the flawed logic in the world (as fanboys always do), and yet you felt her opinion was new and something we needed to see?

I find the opinion interesting as well considering its fueled by fanboy retardation. It is quite humorous, but completely unoriginal and not necessary. Try better next time.
