Regarding Resistance 3, I think this is the price Insomniac had to pay for turning their backs on Sony. This is the first game they released after their announcement to go multiplatform, so they don't rank as high among the PlayStation fanbase as they used to. Their next Ratchet & Clank game is most likely also poised to underperform in the marketplace.

Meanwhile, all eyes are on Naughty Dog.


It is very interesting how the two companies (Naughty Dog and Insomniac) trade dominance ever other generation. Naughty dog controlled PS1 with Crash Bandicoot while Insomniac had good sales with Spyro. Then Ratchet and Clank controlled the PS2 while Jak had a good existance. For PS3 it's Naughty Dog's turn again. Uncharted is mopping up Resistance.

I also think that the multiplatform announcement from Insomniac did hurt them though. Sony loyalists gave them alot of money over the years (Spyro, Ratchet and Resistance). Sony supported them every step of the way and they still become multiplatform. Ted Price is a great guy though and hopefully the bitter taste of growing up doesn't end up killing a talented (and passionate) development team.

Looks like Wii tops 88M when rounded up, but next week for sure over 88M. Only 2M to go.


88 millions... Amazing numbers for a d00med console, and doomed ever since launch...

 Good 3ds numbers... 


I think it will squeeze another 5M for the rest of the year and to the other 7M for the rest of it's life.

Hmm... 5m this year sounds fine... but 7M for the rest of its life?... I think that pretty low... 10-15 M at the very least I would say...

No but that explains the numbers. Tales of Xillia, is that a game in the Tales series, like Tales of Vesperia? PS3 xclusive?

Yes to both of your questions.

If i'm hoping it will do min 110M LT then 15M is needed, suppose they can do that with a cheap price and a few more christmas holidays.
