First off Sales2099 is the only one looking at this from a business persepective.  Leo is taking this from a bias perspective, and  Jay you just, idk.  Everything Sales2099 has said that I've read is correct.  

The argument Jay is presenting is, that there are more people willing to buy into a console for GTA then for Madden, although technically Madden sells more (in this example - I haven't double checked whether that's actually the case), because GTA has more unique users, while Madden's sales are primarily from people buying each year or each second year.

Yes Madden is huge btw why do you guys think they sale it every year.  Can you imagine how much profits they are getting out of a game that barely has to update each year?   

Well, don't forget they have to use a lot of that money to pay the license fee and they _have_ to release a game on almost every platform each year because that's their contract, meaning they have to have 200+ people working on it to make it in a year and to make it not be totally exactly like the years before.

Halo/Gears/Forza is way bigger than Sony's first party.  I don't even know why this is being argued.  If you're going to argue let's look at the numbers. These are how much each franchise has sold this gen

shouldn't you go with Halo/Kinect Adventures/Gears instead? I mean Kinect Adventures is a proven system mover and MSes 3rd biggest IP at this point

 

Halo-28.99m and with Halo 4 that's going to increase

Gears of War-18.04m

Kinect Adventures-16.89m

Forza-11.45m

Total-63.92m

 

Uncharted-14.57m

Gran Turismo-7.87m u omitted Gran Turismo Prologue,so it's 11.97m

God of War-7.53m

Total-34.07

 

Halo alone almost matches the totals for all three of Sony's exclusives.  With halo 4 it will pass all three. 

 

And Leo, so you said PSN is the best online service?  XBL has much more  respect for multiple reasons but I know what you're going to say.  FREE, am I correct.  Sorry but Steam is 10x better than PSN and it's also free.  

that can be summarised in one word: bias - Steam is good, probably better than PSN, but by no means 10x better

 

If you all really think it's ok for a company to go from making an insane amount of profits with the PS2 to losing billions with the ps3 you have a problem.  Graphics is not even noticeable between X360 and PS3, play pc if you wanna a difference.  600 dollars was a huge mistake just like the Vita is making a huge mistake with making memory cards over priced and an expensive portable console.  

I mostly agree

Get rid of your bias opinions, Sales2099 is the only one correct here so I don't understand the argument here.  Please explain.

you are telling other people to "get rid of their bias" while slapping them into the face with your own ? that won't work
