In general I don't think you can say that PS3 games have "Long Legs" being that only 1 PS3 game in the worldwide top 50 last week had been on the charts for more than a month or two.

I guess you aren't counting DMC4.  Uncharted, Resistance, and Motorstorm are in the top 60 though.  As far as I know, having long legs does not deal with topping charts, but rather selling consistently from week to week, and not being front-loaded.

Motorstorm 269k---3050k
Resistance 242k ---2640k
Uncharted 137k----1390k
Ratchet and Clank 131k---950k
Heavenly Sword 106k---940k

Granted there has been some help with bundles, most notably Motorstorm, these games have gone on to sell seven to eleven times more than they debuted at.


Certainly having "Long Legs" is more about selling steadily but the best way to determine that would be to look at how long a game was selling at a particular level; if a game has been on the charts for less time then similar games at the same sales level you can say that it has worse legs than those games.
