| leatherhat said: There is truth to that, but if you look at the big picture, sony first party titles do sell well. There is the obvious Gran Turismo which is one of the biggest franchises in all of gaming, God of War is a solid seller. And even the more out there titles do well, I mean LBP outsold Metroid Prime 3 so its obviously able to move the units if it can beat one of nintendos biggest franchises. There is plenty of other examples as well, Uncharted, resistance, killzone, ratchet and Jak. They may not be able to outsell Mario and Zelda but then again very little can. However they still sell really well. In fact the only sony titles that don't sell that well are the Team Ico games, and they are there for style points anyway. |
Sony actually has a decent amount of games that don't sell well. Genji, Lair, Folklore, The Eye of Judgment, and the NBA games all have low sales for the development costs they likely needed. Even so, that is a pretty small collection of games so far this gen.
BTW, Shadow of the Colossus did pretty decently actually.
