Hey I'm from Toronto, what's up fellow Canuk?

Everyone has a personal preference, the PS3 controller is still a good controller. I don't really understand why Sony made trigger button either, but it's a welcome addition if you ask me. At least PS3 controllers don't break like my 360 controllers. 1 controller doesn't have a working A button, and the other has a loose analog stick, but still works. Only had 1 PS1 controller ever go on me, over the duration of 3 consoles.

BTW, what's up with Germany? I heard many 360 exclusives don't get localized there for a couple years after release. I heard Gears of War 1 was a 2008 title for them?

Also this controller issue, it could be a regional thing. In Canada and USA 360 outsells PS3, but in most of Europe including France and Germany, PS3 outsells 360. Maybe people in different regions play different types of games and like different triggers?

Yeah I live in Toronto as well so thumbs up for Canada! I personaly think Xbox sells better in U.S. because

1. Many established exclusive franchies.

2. People in U.S.A think Xbox 360 is the best for shooters so they want to buy shooters on the 360 opposed to the PS3.

3. But people in Japan, Germany, France e.t.c prefer qualltiy over "I want to play Halo" like in the U.S.A. (Halo is a great game btw).

I think the biggest reason is because 360 games have a lot of hype in the U.S.A and have much more stronger exclusive franchises than PS3 over there. Looking at the European and Americas slaes I have to say.... they both prefer shooters,sports,racing,e.t.c but different kinds

I agree, and I also add 360 sells well in USA because it's domestic. Being domestic is a big reason why a lot of terrible US companies still exist, and since USA is such a populated country, that makes a big difference.

However #3, I'm not sure I agree. A lot of 360 exclusives are quality titles, there just aren't as many franchises, and were seeing less game 6 years after launch. I personally prefer Forza over GT, and I own all Forza's and GT's. Halo, Gears, Splinter Cell, and a lot of MS published exclusives (Lost Odyssey, Mass Effect 1, etc) are great quality games. Fable....nah lol

Sony still has more, Killzone, Uncharted, Resistance, Gt, Motorstorm, God of War, LBP, and again a lot of Sony published, or financiall aided exclusives like MGS4, Demon Souls, etc.

MS just knows how to advertize better that's why why 3600 360 games selling really well in Americas. In USA, adterizing is everything because people are mindless Zombies. Watch Futurama S06E03, and that's my opinion about the comercial industry in USA. I mean I think the reason Homefront sold so much better on 360 then PS3, and better then Crysis was because it was advertized over X-Box. When you logged in for all of February, you saw the homefront ad immediatly.
