Forums - Sales Discussion - Top 50 Seventh Gen Games (all platforms)

This list is depressing.

I enjoy the fact that gaming has become more widespread,but this casual generation does my head in.

A proper game in my opinion is something like Gears,Pokemon,Final Fantasy,Call of Duty,Killzone,Uncharted etc

You want quality games?
Resident Evil 4 is the game that springs to most people's minds as being the best game of the 6th gen,it even popped into this gen on the Wii,and it's one of about 4 games on the sysem I don't mind.

Little Big Planet is one of the most critically acclaimed games of this generation,I've played a number of custom levels and it really is amazing what you can do with the game.It's consitent DLC is a good sign on Media Molecule's part.

Halo 3,Modern Warfare1&2 and heck even Killzone have got sales of over 40 million by now between the four of them,and the praise they have had goes to insane levels.

Uncharted 2,Gears of War,Resident Evil 5 are amongst the best examples of how well TPS is doing this generation,with Uncharted 2 being one of the most critically acclaimed games of all time.

Bottom line IN MY OPINION (

Misleading thread title.
Top 50 highest selling games of the 7th generation.
Ok that would not fit into the title.
I was expecting the top 50 7th generation games that have been released over the last 5 or 6 years since the DS or PSP launched back in 2004 or 2005. I know the two handhelds launched before the XBox 360 launched in November 2005.

The top 50 selling gamesof the 7th generation would no way be the top 50 games released for the 7th generation.

sad thing is,that this gen quality means fuck all to 64 million people by the looks of things.

Aside from perhaps a couple of entries, those ARE quality titles.  Have you actually tried any of those non-quality, depressing titles?

This is something that baffles me.  Too many people hate on the Wii big sellers yet never once really give any thought to just how high on the quality scale they rate.

I see it like this.  Wii is a Hyabusa motorcycle and the other 2 consoles exotic sports cars.  All 3 are quality but for some reason many sports car owners (and reviewers) take much disdain with the Wii for only having 2 wheels instead of 4.   For not having trunk space like the cars do.   For not having a 7.1 DTS surround sound stereo system like the cars do.  But they fail to take into consideration that what is there is still a damn good quality motorcycle and not everyone wants an expensive to own/maintain exotic sports car.

just because it is your opinion does not mean you aren't trolling.

I could claim that it is my opinion that user x is a complete #$!#@%@#, but I still flamed him.

One week left...shouldn't be any significant changes to the multiplat list. Have to watch GTA Liberty City Stories on PS2/PSP, NSMB Wii and double check the bigger sports games...but that list is probably final.

There is some intrigue for the top fifty single-system games though...if COD: MW2 can sell another ~260k on PS3 it will displace the only PSP game in the list below.

will you count FF XIII ?can reach 6 million by june imo



No FFXIII won't be in there.

The decade runs from January 1, 2000 to December 31, 2009 (January 3, 2010 for us because of our weekly system). Final Fantasy XIII is like 250th or something. PS2 + DS + Wii have over 100 games over 3m in the 2000s all by themselves.
