Which version do you think will sell more and why?

I predict PS3 because most multi-console owners would choose ps3 because I personally find it extremely difficult to play a fighting game using the 360 controller (and I assume I'm not alone with that sentiment). The dualshock 3/sixaxis L2 and R2 suck as well but the d-pad is more suitable for fighting games (in my opinion) than the 360's except you can use joysticks. Discuss...

 

 Xbox 360 users usually use the Analogue stick for 3D fighting games!!!!

Its far superior to the PS3 analogue stick...The shoulder buttons\trigger buttons on the 360 are cracp but they aren't terrible, it the D-pad on the 360 that really is total SHIT no doubt about it...

But since thats not what is on discussion or the deciding factor, I think the controller won't have an impact on sales for either console.

 

So that contradicts your argument?

getting the 360 version. Achievements, LIVE, and Yoda. What more could you want?



GOTY Contestants this year: Dead Space 2, Dark Souls, Tales of Graces f. Everything else can suck it.

Doesn't really contradict my arguement but I personally just can't use a joystick for a fighting game. Perhaps its easier on soul calibur due to the 8-way run but for 2D fighters like MK and street fighter and 3D fighters like Tekken...not so much. But if you can use them, have fun with them!

ps3-vader and the dpad.

I'd go with Ps3 for the controls and the small fact that i don't own a 360 atm :)



Also, Vader>>>>>>>>>>>>>>the green midget

If kratos was in the ps3 version then it would win by a landslide

If Banjo was in the 360 version, I would buy it day one.  As of now, I will not get the game.  Too many other games coming up.

All together I think the PS3... considering Japan and Europe...... but then the US is a huge market.

I think PS3 will outsell the 360 version for several reasons.

1. Darth Vader > Yoda
2. Japan like fighters
3. Better controller for fighters on the PS3
4. Other fighting games have not had steller sales on the 360.

The only reasons I think the 360 have a chance to outsell the PS3 version are
1. Userbase
2. 360 has a larger % of testoterone crazed teenage boys who will pay 60 or more to play a game with a plethora of DD chested women.

Prediction- 55-45 PS3

 

I would put 60-40 PS3

Real valid point though.
