Dead Island - amazing game. Don`t believe reviews. Deus Ex: HR and Dead Island best games this year.

It's hard to feel happy for ps3 when I know the sales are easily erasable.
For instance, when ps3 went to 300$ and slim, the sale lead over 360 was almost completely erased by the end of Christmas. A 1 point something million lead gone like that.

Sure? If I remember the GAP was 8 million before slim and 4 million after Christmas.

Oct-Dec sales of 2009: 6,897,278 (PS3) > 4,979,188 (360)

I guess Sony will never repeat these sales over 360 in that period... Slim was a beast .

I must be thinking about that first drop to 400 then.



Gears of War 3 needs to come out fast with an Xbox 360 pricecut for the holidays. It's time to wrap up the Wii Nintendo and focus all your resources for 3DS this holiday season. Looks like 3DS is picking up steam and Nintendo NEEDS to keep the momentum going.

PS3 slightlyy overtracked as Sony said @ TGS its at 51.8 mil.

PSP heavily UNDERTRACKED as Sony said it was at 71.4million.



It was also stated during the conference that those numbers are from the end of June.


That was pre-price cut as well. So I think VGC numbers are fine.

I must say I thought Space Marine would do better in Europe... I know the game was released the 9th of September but still

Good sales for ps3 and 3ds. Almost a 100% boost in Japan for ps3 due to the xillia effect.

Resistance franchise seems less popular now.

Good dead island sales.

Wii losing a lot of steam still. Should pick up during holidays.


Was never that popular to begin with -_-

Understood but still a sizeable drop off from Resistance 2 release week.

Resistance 2 Release week: 409,270

Resistance 3 Release week: 274,051

Even if Resistance was not a very popular franchise it has weakend further since Resistance 2.




Resistance 2 was realeased in the middle of the holiday's and Resistance 3 released right before the holidays so that 125k differnce really isn't that serious at all :)



Xillia has done well now it's Ni No Kuni's turn

i wonder what Bamco is thinking right now

i bet they are thinking --> "500k 1st week? NOT GOOD ENOUGH! maybe we should go back to the 360 or Wii to see if we can get better numbers in Japan?"

naw im j/k =P
