Thanks for the catch on Mario Kart Wii, I edited it into the original post.

ZenfoldorVGI, perhaps we'll see PS3 games appearing here with more frequency as time goes on. All I can do is report the current numbers. I don't think any PS3 exclusive other than Gran Turismo has a realistic shot of making the top ten list though.

 

Some people think LBP will take the market by storm. You don't think it'll earn a spot on that list? The front page predicts that LBP will sell more than Gears 2. Gears 2 will certainly sell more than Gears 1, and Gears 1 is on that list. Therefore by reference, a vast number of people voting think LBP will sell more than Gears 1 or 2.

Given this information, do you think that LBP will make the list, or do you think that fandom and hope might have mislead a lot of peoples votes?

My personal opinion is that LBP will open to above average sales, and have above average legs for a HD game, but I don't think it'll have the legs of a Nintendo game. Japan will be key, if the game takes off over there, it'll have a chance, but  I wouldn't bet any money on that happening. Userbase plays a key role in sales, and you need a significant userbase and strong legs or a vast lump sum at the start to make the top 10 exclusives list. It could skirt 9 or 10 though, who knows.

 I don't think people realize that they're asking LBP to quickly blow by MGS4 when they say that it will outsell Gears 2.



I don't need your console war.

You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.

NO NO, NO NO NO.
