It's kind of a funny...

- 360 had no release and just down 3% week on week.

- PS3 had LBP2 and Mass Effect 2 (ok... that's a late port) and down 5%.

That's the motive for I use the words "overtracked" and "undertracked" everytime.


And why in the name of all things sensible would ME2 (sold like crap) and LBP2 (a sequel to a succesful but not mega succesful title) move hardware?

360 and Kinect are still hot items... live with it or just leave the site for good if you have no respect for it.

This shit is getting really really fucking boring now.

Define "mega successful" please.

I saw a youtube debate about 360  vs PS3 software sales one time that brought up a good point. Last gen, on the PS2, only GTA and Gran Turismo sold such huge numbers. Xbox had it's Halo and Nintendo had its Super Smash.

But the many, many other games that were considered "mega successful" were in the 4-6M range. MGS, FFXII, KH, etc. 

I just want to know what makes you belittle (albeit only slightly) LBP. Because compared to last gen, there was only a handful of games that were "mega successful" (I'm basing this on the fact that you're probably using something like Wii Fit as benchmark for tossing in the "mega")
