Looking at the top sellers from ps3 and comparing it with xbox 360 it is clear that ps3 exclusives DO NOT sell that well (compared to xbox exclusives) Here are a few examples:

Uncharted-3.10                                                                                       Gears of war- 6.04mil

Uncharted2-3.13                                                                                     Gears of war 2- 5.66 mil

Killzone2- 2.25                                                                                         Halo 3- 10.93 mil

Resistance-3.68

Resistance 2- 1.85

Halo 3 sold more than Killzone 2, Resistance and Resistance2 put together!!! Why is this?

Resistance and  Uncharted 1 and 2 have done quite well.

Resistance 2 was crap

Killzone 2 would of sold loads more if the control scheme wasn't so crap.

 

Other factors:

The PS3 had a significantly lower install base when most of those games were released

PS3 Exclusives that have been released lately (HR, GOWIII, MAG, UC2), have been released within such a short time of each other that they are competing with each other for gamers time and money.  I still haven't bought UC2 of HR, but I definatley will when I have the time to play them.

Also The blu-ray factor, no-one buys a PS3 ONLY for watching Blu-rays, BUT if they do buy blu-rays sometimes, then they have less cash available to buy games.



The dude abides
