Any game that doesn't sell one million copies is a flop.

Other games that sold fewer copies than Resistance 3:

 

  • Warhawk
  • Genji: Days of the Blade
  • ModNation Racers
  • MAG: Massive Action Game
  • SOCOM Confrontation
I limited this to what you could consider core games. Collections, casual stuff and Move games were left out.

Firstly, are you going by the first month or week sales? Because MAG, SOCOM and Warhawk did 1 mil. Modnation is 70k away from it.

Secondly, what's your point? That some PS3 exclusives don't sell particularly well? Who cares? They do well enough to make a decent amount of money and many times warrant a sequel. They give the gamers that enjoy them what they want, and they make decent money. What's the problem?

SONY doesn't need every series they have to sell a shit-ton, because they can rely on their bigger IPs to really rake in the cash. Series like Uncharted, Gran Turismo, MGS, LBP and God of war.

Firstly, I am using LTD sales in Europe for all games I mentioned in this thread. The only exception is Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 for which I am only using its first week to compare it to Twisted Metal's LTD sales (which is only one week).

Secondly, go to Google and type in "gamrconnect MAJOR flop".

Oh.

Ok? All that came up that I recognised was UC3. Which is a pretty big success, not only sales-wise but critically.
