Two words Demon's Souls

That and because the game looks exactly like The Witcher : Enhanced Edition( Which isn't a bad thing, considering the Witcher was awesome...sad that I couldn't finish it, thanks to my crappy PC)....and the fact that I'm saving up for 2010 releases already..

man PS3 owners confuse me, they just buy consoles and then praise their exclusives on the internet, without even owning any of them, nor any good multiplats!

For me still playing Demon's Souls, MW2, agarest war, TOV......(FF13 waiting for the price to drop XD)

Dragon Age? not on the list!!

The reason why it is not selling much on ps3 is that the game looks WAY better on pc. Not to mention that you can have up to 30 slots for actions, top down view, and the difficulty is much harder on pc. I do sympathize with you, it should have sold more on ps3 as it looks better on it than 360. I also agree with other posts as that there are A LOT of other ps3 games that ps3 owners would like to buy first.

Looking @ this makes me feel old...PROUD owner of NES, SNES, GENESIS, TurboGrafx 16 (PCE), N64, PSOne, PS2, Dreamcast, Xbox360, and PC.

I just didn't want the damn game. Sue me.

Serious: I really wanted to like it because I heard you can get over 100 hours easily of it in a single playthrough with little to no grinding. Problem is, when ever I look up gameplay videos... I get bored. I just don't like the battle system. I currently have about 150 hours on Demon's Souls but atleast 10 of those hours is my character sitting around idle, and 30 hours of soul farming. I'm on my 3rd playthrough, btw.

SONY fans love --->J<---R P G 's

You are so wrong about SONY fans love -->J<---R P G 's because the Dragon Quest series sold more than 90% of it's total sale only in Japan. Very incredible. I think it is more accurate to say SONY fans love FF. I mean FF is great and big no doubt about it, but there a lot more rpgs out there (Japanese or Western) that are not selling at all and they look great.

.............................. you do know outside of Japan DQ series is very unknown series??? DQ8 was the 1st DQ game to have a huge media push to garner more awareness in NA and EU. SE has been working to get DQ more awareness this gen with DQ remakes/spinoffs but up intill now DQ had no face in NA so blaming Playstation fans is silly especially when 3 DQ were released on SNES in NA and did not fair any better than the 2 PS ones..... and since when does DQ = all JRPG's? and wat JRPG's on PS3 arnt selling well??? im interested because there hasnt been any JRPG's on PS3 in NA

Do you know that in Japan that DQ is bigger than FF. Do you know that off all the PS3 RPG's sold in Japan that FF XIII in only it's first week represent 47% of RPGs sold on the PS3 in Japan (out of 19 games). Do you know also that there are no RPG on the PS3 that hit 1 M copies in either Japan, America or Others until FF XIII came along and did it in Japan. Only 2 RPGS on the PS3 so far has hit over 1 millions worlwide before FF XIII. This is the reason why I am saying that you were wrong thinking that the poor sale of Dragon Age had probably something to do with "sony fans love -->J<---R P G". I am a RPG fan myself and it kills me to see a good RPG not getting great sales number.
