MW2 has now officially outsold CoD4 on the 360 and the PS3 ( and still sold over 1 million units week).

LTD CoD4 sales :
360 : 8.06 million units
PS3 : 4.93 million units
Total : 12.99 million units

MW2 so far after 7 week :
360 : 8.40 million units
PS3 : 5.71 million units
Total : 14.11 million units.

Guess what platform will be the focus of the next MW ?

PS : and what exactly is dumbed down on consoles on MW2 compared to CoD4 ? Answer : Nothing...

I was talking about the PC but alright...

If they are gonna forgo consoles why do they even bother making more CoDs when games on the wii can obviously rake in far far more profit?

what third party software has sold as much as MW2 on the Wii ?

It's not like World at war or Reflex have sold 10 millions unit

The Wii audience is just not that big for fps....

Heck which third party exactly is swimming in cash thanks to their Wii profit ?

And no you were not talking about PC.

Here is a quote of what you said : 'All that MW2 shows is that dumbed-down games sell more on consoles, and fail miserably on PCs.'

Might want to switch that history minor for an english one...

 

Why would they even bother making FPS games? They can spend a few million and still make profits easily with some training games. If memory serves me right, MW2 was made for 200 million, a Wii title would be 1/100th of that. They can also keep churning out such things endlessly for non-stop profits.

That quote pertains solely to the PC sales, since you involved consoles then the Wii also gets thrown in the mix. Might want to actually get educated first.

I guess I have to spell it out for you. If profits are literally all that matter and games stop being made for the PC, why the hell should they continue to make games on HD consoles when Wii games can make profits much much much more easily?

 

You're getting desesperate there :)

Activision is going to be the top third party publisher this year, not anyone else... You guys went on a public campaign to slander them and IW because you disliked what they did, and the results are in, over 14 million of us voted with our wallet and you lost...

I asked you to name one third party that is reaping benefits from the Wii and you haven't answer, a sure proof you're just fishing...( you need a lot of titles selling 500k-1 million units to generate the same revenue/profit that MW2 on the HD consoles will.)

Thing is the PC release is lucky it's considered almost free in term of costs by most developers because the high level of piracy could make the case that releasing games on the PC is hurting sales on other platforms... ( because some ppls with PC and consoles are just going to pirate it on the PC and might have purchased it otherwise on consoles if there was no PC release).



PS3-Xbox360 gap : 1.5 millions and going up in PS3 favor !

PS3-Wii gap : 20 millions and going down !
