Not this year. I'm sure it's not going to be Gears 3 and Forza 4 vs Uncharted 2, Twisted Metal, LittleBigPlanet 2, Killzone 3, Infamous 2, etc. MS will have more exclusives unveiled at E3. And their are some new IP's that have potential to be a million seller.


Well obviously its not that cut and dry but I think Sony will make a huge dent with no Halo


Gears 3 will likely sell just as much as all of those PS3 exclusives combined that Notorious mentioned so what makes you think Not having a Halo will make any difference? BTW this is the 10th year anniversary of Halo and Xbox so no Halo is unlikely and oh also Gear 1 & 2 both have over 6 million in sales a piece. While most PS3 exclusives get around 2 million or less on average. Sony`s biggest seller is GT.

Do you really think so ? Both Gears have sold 6 Million. Uncharted 2 is making it's way to 5 Million. LittleBigPlanent is at 4 Million. Killzone is at 2.5 Million. You get the picture. Unless all of these
games flop I don't see Gears outselling them combined. Individually is a different story.

If you look at the sales more closely you'll see in Europe Uncharted 2 is only about 100,000 copies away from Gears 2 in sales and Gears has been out a lot longer than Uncharted 2.

here in the EU the PS3 games are doing about the same as Microsofts and in some cases exceeding them, eg, the PS3 version of Fifa, Black Opps and MW2 have sold better than their 360 counterparts. here in Europe GT5 has shot straight past the sales of Halo Reach despite having several handcaps, a smaller marketing campagain, and being racing game compared to the shooter.

so the reason Gears and Halo have done better is because of 10mil more 360s than PS3s in the US. even then its mainly Gears and Halo that have far superior sales.
