Yep, thanks for the correction, Etecoon.

Either way, each God of War game has sold fewer copies than the one before it. If putting it on a PSP which doesn't sell software is part of the reason, that isn't my fault, and the numbers still stand. Understanding reasons for things doesn't justify them or make them any less true.

If Sony made a mistake in putting the next God of War game on the PSP, then that's Sony making a mistake.

If Nintendo made a genius masterstroke in putting the next Animal Crossing on the DS, then that's just Nintendo making a genius masterstroke.

As I said earlier, God of War 1 is still selling and when GoW2 gets to budget status, expect it to sell as long as God of War 1 did, and sell as well, if not better than the original.  (Quote me on this).

Yeah, I'm really not blaming you or accusing you of anything. I'm just pointing out that I see these two arguments used in tandem all the time, and it effectively resolves any system or game of any blame if it sells poorly.

Your point is well taken.

absolves?

Jeez etecoon, this isn't english class.

What, do you have a degree in English or something?

Why would I ever bother getting a worthless degree like that?

On the contrary, putting God of War on the psp was a great move. It helped the system, and sony got a hit game for their psp.

It wasn't a mistake, I'm just saying.
BTW* aren't animal crossing and GoW totally different games anyway?

Especially when you do construction for a living, you couldn't have a degree in English.  You don't even know when to use "A" and "an".

It started with somebody saying sony won E3. And then soriku said no they didn't x franchise y franchise animal crossing are all bigger than GoW, and then Leo-J and others doubted him, and then soriku said make a thread about it then, and heere we are.

Also, God of War PSP sales are going to pick up significantly soon. As the game is bundled with the PSP as of now. And is easily the best deal the PSP has had in a minute. 200 bucks for a PSP (170) Gow: CoO (40) Superbad on UMD (15) and Syphon Filter: Combat Ops (10).

Expect the sales of God of War PSP to stay elevated for a time to come, especially going into the holiday season.

And I appreciated it. Did I sound sarcastic somehow?
