| Reasonable said: Not really. The actual question it raises for me is why Sony 1st party FPS can't match the big 3rd party FPS? Year by year the actual sales units of big third party titles have crept closer and closer on the two consoles - with 360 having early lead due to its head start - and more recently some big titles have sold more on PS3, even. Yet, for some reason Playstation exclusive FPS can't match Halo in sales. I find it strange as the 3rd party sales show their is an install base big enough to support huge FPS sales, and in general Playstation owners seem pretty loyal, yet titles like Killzone 2 sell a lot less despite being polished, feature rich and exlusive. I'm always curious why this is. |
They're certainly not selling badly. GT 5 has sold over 4m in about 4 weeks, and is still going strongly. Uncharted 2 has crossed 4m and God of War III is only just short of that number too
Apart from GT (which will get there), there are no mega franchises on PS3, but a lot of decent selling games which are (most importantly) very good games to play, and so with inFamous and Uncharted sequels coming out next year, I would expect both those franchises to grow too
