When they released the figures Saga wasn't even released. Also it only includes the standalone title, not the trilogy.

Then they were probably talking shipped.

I'm skeptical about most things Sony says.


They did mention it was sold and not shipped. I don't know what's your problem with that.

That's cool, but I'm gonna remain skeptical.

Simmer down.

Considering Gears usually sells lots of millions week 1, I think from a prequel perspective, GOW:A is performing better.


Wrong.

Gears isn't just a prequel, its a spin off from a different developer and has less in common with Gears3 than what GOWA has with GOW3. GOWA had its own super bowl commercial, do you have any idea how expensive they are... MS isn't expecting big numbers from gears where Sony clearly expected big things from GOWA. I would call GOWA a flop, but GearsJ, not so much.

That's just it, I don't think anyone was really "dying " for a prequel to Gears of War at all. As a vet of the series, I certainly wasn't (though I still bought it). 

Now on the subject of E-Day, I agree. I love to see Gears 1 from the perspective of the soldiers who were already dead, like Rojas.


I always liked that stranded guy who got stuck in the place of the lambent wretches xDDDDD

Never found Rojas that interesting. It was like "Where's Rojas?" *Cole stares in silence*.

Gears of War will die down quickly, while God of War will have legs. It's amazing Playstation games are blamed for having legs due to 'low price tag' but Microsoft exclusives don't have that leg even with low price tag.


But that depends on the game, you know.

This guy is gonna be upset when he finds out most Sony games don't have great legs..

I find it funny some Sony fans will brag about legs. They don't care how a game sells at for full price. Their ultiamte concern is how many units you can move in the bargain bin.

The thing is Playstation gamers have choice to choose from lots of exclusives and their userbase is same as that of the 360. So, it may not be possible to buy all the games new at their full price. People buy at full price what they like and wait for the price to reduce. 



Sony exclusives:
Uncharted = Tomb Raider on Xbox
God of War = Devil May Cry, Darksiders, Castlevania, etc on Xbox
Not that exclusive... most of the rest are generic copies of Nintendo and MS Ip's in my opinion.
