I think when these devs make there all powerful game and get lower than expect sales, they'll see PS3 exclusive was not the right way.

Is it possible to spew out a more trollish comment than that?
I agree with Seece and I'm far from a Sonyfanbot.

So, for example, I can go around saying upcoming 360 exclusives wasn't the right way, and the company will expect lower sales etc. JUST say I said that in a topic, that was regarding a 360 exclusive title, I would be attacked by M$ fanboys on the spot.

I'm not saying PS3 games sell bad, I just feel that unless the game is made to appeal to the Japanese audience, that it would do better multi or 360 exclusive. The exact same could be said for Japanese 3rd party games exclusive on the 360.

Steady Seece! Let me address this:

Firstly the Xbox 360 has a 8m lead of course games have a tendency to sell better on the x360 but that does not mean that games that are multi or exclusive sell better on the x360. Games such as:

  • Tomb Raider
  • Pro Evo 2009
  • Fifa 2009
  • Burnout Paradise
  • Devil May cry 4
  • Resident Evil 5
  • Street fighter

The ps3 compared to Xbox 360 has a better attach rate, despite the 8m difference in console owners. Software sales between Ps3 and Xbox 360 are close.

The notion that games that appeal to the Japanese only sell better on the ps3 is like saying that games aimed at the american market sell better on the Xbox 360. If we don't consider Japan than we must not consider America and that leaves Europe and the ps3's games sell better in Europe!!

Sony Leader out!

There are very few occasions multi games sell more on the PS3, they either have to be Sports games in Europe, former PS franchise, or Japanese aimed.

 

What do you mean "Japanese aimed"... Resident Evil, Devil May Cry, and Street Fighter are all way more popular in America than in Japan.

 

Nice try though kid.

I think devs need to focus more on a game's storyline, depth, and immersion than just there pretty game engine.

killzone 2 is an example, the original had a great story line, the sequel had an ok storyline but pales in comparison to the original, the devs focused on there graphics engine not the actual game.

I hope they feature Hakha as the main character in the last game (3'rd one. All good things must end in 3)

The thing to do is just build up the hype and people will buy the game(s) like falling dominos....but then again, sony isn't very talented at doing that

Imagine Dead or Alive on Ps3 and all the content they could fit on a BluRay disc.

but, how do you know thia one is going to sell bad?.

I didn't say it would sell bad. However good it sells (and it will never do anything more than 3 million) unless this game is aimed at the Japanese, then it would of benefitted it more to be on the 360 also or even a 360 exclusive.

oh i see. well i dont agree with you. i believe this game could be aimed to americans or any audience and be ps3 exclusive and still sell good. well thats my opinion. sure it may sell more if it is multi or 360 exclusive but the fact that is ps3 exclusive doesnt mean is going to get lower than expected sales.

Maybe "lower than expected sales" isn't the right term. I think you get what I mean though, they're not maximizing the sales this game could do being exclusive to the PS3.

Of course! Just like Valve could maximize their sale by including a PS3 version of their shooters, their core reason seems more valid in this regard (PS3 is to difficult to program!) and while I'm slightly skeptical, I also willing to give them the benefit, but the point is some developer choose not to for whatever reason, and chances are they're unlikely to tell you how they've come to this decision become it almost always has something to do with commercial incentives of some sort.

Anyways, I think the dev here is giving the response he knows will cause the most contraversy, its nothing more than a cheap PR stunt.
