Software-wise, this was not Sonys year at all.

you can make such a top10 list with Sony exclusives (PS Vita / PS3).

Twisted Metal
Starhawk
Sorcery
AC Liberation
CoD Declassified
LBP Karting
PSABR
Resistance Burning Skies (Meta 60, sold 0.17m)
Modnation Racers: Road Trip (Meta 52, sold 0.10m)
Wonderbook (Meta 72, less than 8k in its first month in the US, less than 11k wordwide)

Sure, you can't expect every game to do well. There will always be a flop every now and then, but that is way too much.
Still, the internet will praise Sony for their unrivaled 1st party studios...

AC Liberation has now sold around 400k and is going to continue selling well through the holiday season. I wouldn't call that a flop.

I would. One of the biggest franchises this gen, a lot of advertisements, best black friday deals for the bundle and still just 400k. It is a flop.

So is 660k for Forza Horizon also a flop? A game that is in a 3-5m selling franchise and has had more weeks than AC: Liberation to sell?

Edit: And that on a console with a 70m+ userbase vs. ~3m for Vita

Neither one f you are necessarily wrong.  I originally had AC Liberation on the list, not becasue of it's sells but because of the hype and the score it recieved.  Yes 400k is pretty decent for a vita game though but expectation were high
