PS3 is pretty good at selling fighting, racing, football and shooter games. In all other genres it quite horribly fails, especially compared to 360 and Wii.

You're forgetting about action/sandbox. And adventure games. And music games (although less than other consoles). And Football games (I wasn't sure if you were talking about Soccer or American Football, I'm referring to the American version).

So unless you're going to include every genre, don't make statements like that.

 

He's making that statement referring to the chart, and if you break down the numbers his basically right on all except the shooters.. unless he's referring to Sandbox shooters...

 

Numbers on the left are 360, numbers on the right are PS3, percentage are ratio for each side
