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.

their nothing wrong with the controls of killzone, the controls actually make the game more strategic. their is nothing wrong with aiming by using R3.



Being in 3rd place never felt so good
