Has a 3rd place console ever done these things before?

Tales of Symphonia

Key word: thing(s)

Super Monkey Ball, Soulcalibur 2, Harvest Moon, Viewtiful Joe, etc.  GameCube was loaded with lower profile Japanese developed hits (which in many cases even outsold their PS2 counterparts), Namco and Sega especially did really well on the machine.

Did the Gamecube accomplish HALF of what the PS3 has, no. That was the point.

Tor: We're back on topic now.

Its already got the best (greatest hits in japan) edition and i'm not sure if it will sell enough to get the greatest hits title in NA. there are sales goals for those games.

Based on wikipedia:

On July 28th, 2008, the program was introduced on the PlayStation 3. A PlayStation 3 game must be on the market for 10 months and sell at least 500,000 copies to meet the Greatest Hits criteria.

That policy is mostly bull as titles can get a Greatest Hits release despite selling a lot less than that.

And snuggle the girls be they short or tall,
Then follow young Mat whenever he calls,
To dance with Jak o' the Shadows."

Some people have such problems staying on topic. Oh well.....

OT: Outlaw: Yup, inFAMOUS looks to have already broken that rule

InFamous is not Greatest Hits yet...

No, it's the whole Greatest Hits policy. Look at the PS2 and PSP, the numbers don't always hold up.

by everyone adding their two cents to this thread, its just makes me want to buy this game later today. its only $16 at gamestop. I got to go pick this up!

edit: and I suppose that even though this game is made with some flavor of hardcore mixed with it, it certainly got my sister into the mix and she hates strategic jrpg's, she played the demo 5 times and told me to go buy it!
