That's why they call X360 a shooter box :D
Not only does the 360 have shooters that get mega sales but it also gets better sales in just about every genre compared to the PS3. I mean look at the numbers, you'll see the 360 typically gets better numbers in JRPG, WRPG, Racing, football, basketball, music games, kids games, etc. The only genre PS3 wins in a regular basis is Soccer.

The 360 does not really get beter numbers in jRPGs, the top selling jRPG in Japan is White Knight Chronicles, and none have been released outside of Japan on PS3. Racing games are generally about equal, but NfS Undercover and BP sold better on PS3. And no, PS3 wins at football, 360 wins with American football. Also the PS3 wins any game that is quite big in Japan. However, percent of owners buying any given game seems to be bigger on the PS3, like with Grand Theft Auto IV, Assassin's Creed (I should probably check that) and several others.

Of course COD will sell more on the 360. That's mostly what 360 owners like is FPS. Why isn't games like RE5 and SF4 on the 360 out selling the PS3 versions? Any FPS that is a multiplatform will sell better on the 360.

Everything sells more on the 360 besides soccer/football games and games with great japanese appeal (SF4, Resident Evil, etc). RPG's like Fallout or Oblivion sell more on the 360, casual games like Guitar Hero sell more on the 360, etc. 

Care to insist attempting to spread a failed meme?

Regardless, 360 currently has the better numbers in JRPG sales. Lack of confidence to bring some of the PS3 games out of Japan isn't my concern. I don't care about who wins what region, world wide sales matters the most in the long run.

NFS Undercover and BP only had about equal sales. But don't forget Dirt, Grid, Pure, and NFS PS all sold better on the 360. Also Forza 2 and PGR4 may have affected some of those games from selling better.

As I mentioned already... Soccer sells better on the PS3 and Football sells better on the 360.

whats surprising?? xbox has a bigger install base so its not really news unlike burnout, resident evil and street fighter outselling on the ps3 with a smaller number of consoles, that's why it was kinda odd news I don't think he started it to be a nob unlike you

No, the mods are too busy following me around banning me for the stupidest things you can think of, so they're going to let you guys sit here and make 500 of these threads today.

"Shooterbox" 360 sells more of a shooter game than PS3...

How am i not surprised by this?

MW2 will be much closer in sales, and the next CoD after that, will be practically even.
