Yawn, shame those better exclusives aren't selling consoles or indeed as many games. Shall we just say the gaming public disagree with the article massively, hence why the PS3 is selling worse than both the Wii and 360.

Firstly, Price, Is universally agreed on why the gaming public isn't buying the PS3 as much the the Wii or 360.

Second, Sales are never a measure of quality in any way.

Third, A game's quality is subject to the opinion of one person's. And doesn't reflect sales of the game itslef or system the game is on.

 

That is Priceless...

Yup its the price. That is the reason people like me (with all 3 launch consoles) have game collections that consist of roughly

 

7 PS3 games

11 Wii games

60 360 games

I buy less software for my PS3 because it was so expensive. It has nothing to do with my opinion on what makes a fun game.

 


 

The hell?

What does the price of the PS3 have to do with your gaming collection? Not to mention, I never said anything about price and a games quality having any correlation whatsoever.

All I said was that the quality of a game(which is one persons of opinion of how good the game is) will not make a difference in sales.

For example, If someone thinks The Chronicles of Riddick:Assault on Dark Athena is the best game ever, It wouldn't neccassarily get the best sales ever. Why? Because there can't possibly be a link. What a single person takes from the game is there business.

Jesus Christ read what I wrote.

Also, If you honestly believe that hardware sales for the PS3 aren't affected by it's retail price then you are delusional.

Does this kid know what he's saying?

It's not about what 1 person thinks, now is it?  What these people mean, and you do not understand, is that if a game does not have favorable opinion in a multitude of people's opinions, it won't sell.   How can a game sell if the opinion of it's potential customers is bad?  It ALL relies on the quality and opinions of the individuals.  Sure one individual's opinion does not stand for everyone, but that's not what they were saying....... (your big error).

And, again, they are not saying that price isn't part of the equation, they are simply saying it is not the " universally agreed on why the gaming public isn't buying the PS3 as much the the Wii or 360."

Golly junipers, mister, read what they wrote!
