There you have it folks. When you have a weak argument, take a quote out of context in order to appear right.

Aight. Let's take a different perspective.
According to this site, the PS2 sold 153 million units. The highest selling game is GTA: San Andreas, which sold almost 21 mil units. According to your logic, this should mean that since the attach rate is very low in accordance to the number of PS2s sold, the game had a bad performance. After the #5 best selling game, GT4, each game has sold less than 10 mil units.
Would you, in your honest opinion, consider the PS2 a failure? I'm expecting a "yes" by the way.

Why are you comparing consoles from two different generations? Game sales are considerably higher this generation due to a change in marketing. Just compare any modern CoD installment to a Wii game...

Why does this matter? Last gen the gaming market was still incredibly huge. 153 million PS2s were sold, excluding the GC, Xbox, and GBA. Theoretically the attach rate for lots of games should be very high but outside of 5 games PS2 titles sold less than 10 mil on a 153 mil userbase.

Answer the question. Why are you not using this generation of consoles for a comparison? Not to do so is just creating an incredibly flawed comparison. Compare CoD MW3 to any wii game. How do the sales match up?
