Forums - Sales - 360 profitable exclusives destroying PS3's will it last?

Xbox still has something playstation hasn't... Halo. As long there are halo games ps won't outsell the 360 exclusives



Around the Network

The PS3 will overtake the 360 in sales slowly year after year because they have a larger amount of exclusives. Sony is focused on creating a larger library so they can outsell Microsoft's exclusives that way. Microsoft's high sales are focused on a couple of games rather than a large list of them. The gap really isn't that large when we're talking about game sales. That can change at any moment.

Are you trying to say that no ps3 exclusive will outsell Halo, or are you saying as long as Halo is around(along with the other exclusive titles), the ps3 exclusives will never outsell it and the others combined? The latter is false, and your first statement is up to debate.

I too don't agree with Matrix statement. Kinda' like me saying: Crackdown 2 was a not so polished turd and Alan Wake was the worst game I've ever played in my entire life as a gamer [IMO].

 

^Both of those are so not true and complete bullshit, I'm just putting an example. If thats your opinion, you should present it as your opinion and not a fact. In which I can clearly state that what I said above just might be my opinion... OR IS IT?! (Dun dun duuu).

 

Looking extremly forward to Motorstorm Apocalypse :]!

I`m sorry but where`s the hype for Motorstorm Apocolypse?? Look around it`s harly there. Majority likely felt the same way I did. I don`t know anyone who cares about racing games that is hyped up for the new Motorstorm. Perhaps this has a lot to do with the terrible AI, recycled levels over and over again throughout the game, boring single player due to previosu issues... Motorstorm is the type of game you can have fun with for a few hours but than you start to see all of its flaws. As I said however, I have some hope for the upcoming Motorstorm and am going to be trying it out when it launches. I just don`t expect anything great after the dismal failures IMO that were Motorstorm 1 & 2. This is my opinion but I also notice that plenty of people that I know that are gamers feel the same way. None of us are bias to any specific system so the fact that we all seem to agree unanimously says a lot in my book.

LoL, both MotorStorms are 2 of the best racing games you can play this gen.

IMO motorstorm is not for you

If you read my whole piost you would have noticed that I mentioned that multiple other gamers I know feel the same way about the Motorstorm games. So its not just me that feels that way about them. Ur actually one of the first I ran into that disagrees with it.

Cthulhu is not alone either, so we are obviously at odds. Considering you are on the xbox360 squad or whatever(as clearly shown in your sig), I doubt you have a ps3(no offence), but if you want to prove me wrong, tell me your psn id.

Let me explain: As long the games are what they are now no ps exclusive will outsell it. And this isn't up for debate. Look at the vgchartz numbers for the halo franchise. Halo is 6th. First HD exclusive in the list. Sony's first exclusive stands on what place? 15th or something like that? The exclusives they now have can't match that number of sales. Now for the second statement... This isn't really false. I mean if sony has 20 exclusives this year, ok, it will outsell it. But when the number is even with the 360 the 360 will sell more. Sony just doesn't have a game (yet) that is a threat to halo

i agree with you that if they had the same number of exclusives the 360 ones would sell more( that also depends on the exclusives, lets say it was 20 against 20 and the 360 had 10 halos the ps3 would stand no chance). but damn that last sentence is so wrong.

sony doesnt need a threat to halo, its games arent on the 360 and dont compete with it. now what your trieng to say is that it doesnt have a game on the level of halo, it has gt, gt5 wont outsell halo:reach but gt is still on the same level as it. at the end of this gen the difference would be what 1,2 million btw gt5 and reach, thats minimal considering they would sell 5 times that.



Being in 3rd place never felt so good

 I haven't seen anyone talk about TGS Kinect games. I think these games if released  this year have potential to generate some good sales.

I am still interested to see how 343 handles the halo franchise, and if the series continues to grow, or if starts to become less popular, as it increasingly has more competition. Also, the first exclusive made by sony stands at number 6, while the  an exclusive made by Konami is at 5th(MGS4). Their exclusives right now may not be as popular as Halo, but this thread is about all the exclusives combined, where sony clearly wins, mainly because of the quantity of exclusives. It also matters which exclusives you compare. What if you compare Crackdown Crackdown 2 Fable 2 Forza 3 to Gran Turismo 5 Uncharted 2 Uncharted 1 MGS4? The ps3 clearly wins there, but if you mean that if you compared 10 halos(as someone has said) to 10 gran turismos, then you are right.

Not this year. I'm sure it's not going to be Gears 3 and Forza 4 vs Uncharted 2, Twisted Metal, LittleBigPlanet 2, Killzone 3, Infamous 2, etc. MS will have more exclusives unveiled at E3. And their are some new IP's that have potential to be a million seller.


Well obviously its not that cut and dry but I think Sony will make a huge dent with no Halo


Gears 3 will likely sell just as much as all of those PS3 exclusives combined that Notorious mentioned so what makes you think Not having a Halo will make any difference? BTW this is the 10th year anniversary of Halo and Xbox so no Halo is unlikely and oh also Gear 1 & 2 both have over 6 million in sales a piece. While most PS3 exclusives get around 2 million or less on average. Sony`s biggest seller is GT.


Uncharted 3 and LBP2 will both sell at least 3M plus this year alone so that statement is wrong
