Except that you said "if you don't count the other failures" so it is more like him using a poorly phrased post of your.
I was gonna call you on your first post as while I see the PS3 as a failure in that it will not come any close to replicating the success of the PS1/PS2 but comparing it to the Jaguar and Virtual Boy is way too harsh as I see it fail more like the N64 failed: good hardware, plenty of good games but not enough to spark the fire and thus a step back for its maker.
As for thread about new PS3 million sellers, it is normal as just a few months ago there were only Resistance and Motorstorm which were the only one for quite a while and both are first party published (though third party developed for Resistance, not sure about Motorstorm) so it is normal for you guys to be happy about it.
@Leo:
I doubt that DMC4 will easily get 1 million sales in february on the PS3 alone as it is not exclusive anymore and the installed base of the PS3 is much smaller. It might get there eventually but it will take a while.
@krik: Given the Japanese numbers of previous DMC games and the PS3 numbers of games whose franchise was bigger than DMC in Japan on the PS2 I doubt that it will get 400k anytime soon over there. 200-300k would actually be a good result as it would put it not too far from the likes of Gundam Musou (293k), Hot Shot Golf (430k) and Dynasty Warrior 5 (371k).
The first PS3 game in Japan I expect to do really well and sel systems is GT5 or FFXIII whichever comes first. MGS is not strong enough in Japan to do it.
