AC and CoD4 look like they'll be the third and fourth millions sellers on the PS3 in a week or two, and the first two third party ones. It's over a year since the system launched and aside from those it's got a bunch of games at over 500k.
Do I have to tell you why this is disasterously bad? Developing on the PS3 is extremely expensive, and there are probably under ten games that third party developers have made a profit on, maybe even less. The other platforms are offering lower development costs, easier to use tools, and more sales. It still seems like other companies are willing to take losses for Sony's sake out of pure nostalogy for the good old PS2 days, but we're seeing signs of growing discontent all the time.
