John Lucas did you catch that MGS 4 gameplay demo?

@MrStickball

NCAA is not Madden. Madden is much bigger thus I think it will sell better on the PS2, 360 will get the second highst sales though.

By the way,keep telling yourselves the average buyer knows about 60 fps and 30 fps.

The people who own a PS3 and no 360 will buy the PS3 version, not the PS2 version simply cause it looks better and it's a next gen madden...



Thanks to Blacksaber for the sig!

PSP (127) out of top 100

DS (1000)

here's the problem, the actual order is sales is more likely gonna go like this: PS2-360-xbox-Wii-PS3


this is why amazon is simply not a good measurement for sales. There is absolutely no way the PS3 version even comes close to the sales of the PS2 version, and it's likely to get beat by the xbox and wii versions.

yea Madden is a much more widely played casual friendly game than NCAA

The long-term sales of this game on XBox vs. Wii will tell the tale of the entire generation.

Interesting...  would almost agree except that the wii is too supply constrained for it to create a clear lead of X360 to mean the 360 has a safe spot in America and as number 2 WW.  If demand is met by the first of year (LOL), and X360 Madden sales are > than wii madden sales I would agree...  Madden 09 will likely be more telling to help reduce the 2x life the 360 has...  It certainly would be something if the wii version outsold the 360 version despite the 360 being out twice as long...

Just because the Xbox and wii version is cheap, you actually think it's gonna beat the ps3 version? Sure, the xbox 1 version of madden 07 surpass the ps3 but the ps3 total sales are higher than the wii and the ds but that was because the ps3 and wii are new to the situation.

 

Plus, i check that some ps3 versions of games sold more than the wii version.

It ain't much but why do you think when 3rd party developers develops games for wii, it either flopped or next sequel won't have that version?

Accoring to gamestop, madden isnt selling to good on the wii. Not in there best seller's list, madden on the ps3 is on top as well as 360 madden.

no it's not just because it's cheap, it's also because of the much larger userbases.  Perhaps you didn't notice but the 06 on xbox sold 1 million copies, while the PS3 one sold 320k (?, i know i'm close).  06 on PS3 barely outsold the Wii one, and now the size of the userbase is favoring the Wii much more than last year.  I realize demographics favor the PS3, but the userbase advantage will overcome that.  30 FPS on the PS3 won't help either, people will go with the 360 version if they can. 

BTW Spiderman 3 on Wii is gonna outsell the PS3 version in a few weeks at the current pace, but I dont' think that has anything to do with madden.

PS3 and Wii didn't have the Madden Franchise when they released Madden NFL 07.

 Plus, it doesn't look good for the Wii version of Spiderman 3 or Madden NFL 08 in Amazon sales.

The userbase of Wii doesn't matter in Madden NFL 07 because it still was outsold by the PS3 version. Face facts



Madden 08 on the Wii will probably have some strong legs as you see with many other Wii games. It'll probably have similar early sales to RE4 except a lot more on the first week.

But it'll stay alive and get a nice boost during the holiday season.

I dont' even know how to respond to that, you didn't even make any new points and honestly there is no "facts" to face.  The userbase doesn't matter huh?  Amazon sales for spiderman 3???  not worth responding to.
