That is correct: the 360 is a shooter box, always has been and always will be. It will prevent some 360 owners from purchasing a PS3 though.

If 360 is a shooter box, what do you say about some of the PS3's top selling software?

Metal Gear Solid 4=2.47 million
Resistance: Fall of Man=2.95 million
Uncharted: Drake's Fortune=1.67 million
Ratchet and Clank Future=1.24 million
Grand Theft Auto IV=4.55 million
Call of Duty 4=3.40 million

Look at how much these shooters sold on PS3.

 

 

The PS3, unlike the box, is not abundant in RPG's that are plenty on the X360...

umm out of all the million sellers, 3 of them ar shooters. GTA4 is not a shooter, MGS4 isnt a shooter. What genre sells best? seems evenly split.

Seriously troll much?

14 shooters in the top. So what genres sell the best on the 360? shooters, racers, and sports from what I can tell.

Am I the troll you're speaking of? You are a mod. You can warn me you know.

Also which 14 games are you considering shooters if you don't consider a third person shooter like Metal Gear Solid 4 one? I would put good money that many fit the same criteria of being added or not. Is it because there are options in MGS 4 to not shoot? There are options in Bioshock to use a wrench and plasmids all day long if you so choose. It's still a shooter. If you want to make an argument, at least name the 14 games you're speaking of. If you consider Lost Planet or Crackdown as shooters, than Ratchet and Clank is a shooter too. Looking like a cartoon doesn't disqualify it from what it really is. Seperate your list into which games are shooters and then we'll talk. Until then, your argument is very lacking.
