PS2's are still for sale in most of Canada's major outlets. FutureShop, EBGames, Walmart , Zellers. I don't know when Sony is going to cease manufacturing PS2's but as long as they are still selling why discontinue them. Sony doesn't want to discontinue PS2 because if it does then the Wii has a chance of catching up! |
Yeah, it seems that the PS3 graphics whores don't seem to care about graphics all too much.

360 owners were too busy buying Battlefield in an attempt to get some arbitrary prize before PS3 owners. |
Maybe. And the game is reaaaally oooold... with no improvement...
It is good fun for 15 minutes of play only. It is way too repetitive after.
The only interesting thing is that you can already win some gold for the coming new Wolfenstein game (ok...).
Evan Wells (Uncharted 2): I think the differences that you see between any two games has much more to do with the developer than whether it’s on the Xbox or PS3.

It's not that PSN users like Wolfenstein 3D that much, it's that every game aside from FFVII at #1 didn't sell very well.
It was #2 on PSN and over the comparable period of time I doubt the XBLA version of Wolfenstein 3D was even in the top 10 in sales, and they were identical so there's no reason to believe a higher percentage of PSN users bought it than XBLA users.
Maybe June just had a bad batch of PSN games aside from FFVII, or maybe PSN games just don't sell very well aside from a few exceptions.

We don't provide the 'easy to program for' console that they [developers] want, because 'easy to program for' means that anybody will be able to take advantage of pretty much what the hardware can do, so the question is what do you do for the rest of the nine and half years? It's a learning process. - SCEI president Kaz Hirai
It's a virus where you buy it and you play it with your friends and they're like, "Oh my God that's so cool, I'm gonna go buy it." So you stop playing it after two months, but they buy it and they stop playing it after two months but they've showed it to someone else who then go out and buy it and so on. Everyone I know bought one and nobody turns it on. - Epic Games president Mike Capps
We have a real culture of thrift. The goal that I had in bringing a lot of the packaged goods folks into Activision about 10 years ago was to take all the fun out of making video games. - Activision CEO Bobby Kotick
FFVII and Zen Pinball did really well, infact FFVII did to well.

And you have what to back this up with?

That's what I was wondering. I mean, it even beat out MGS1. I'm pretty sure there's a large number of MGS fans amidst the ps3 install base.

Why would you think Wolfenstein 3D is so much more popular among PS3 owners than 360 owners that it's #2 in sales on PSN but not in the top 10 on XBLA? The 360 has Quake 4 (which also comes with Quake 2), and Doom, and it's getting Quake 3 Arena soon. So why are PS3 owners so much more into this particular classic id Software game than 360 owners?
The alternative, that none of the PSN games aside from FFVII sold well, makes a lot more sense than whatever reason you can come up with.

It's good to see the PSone Classic's doing well. Maybe now Sony will get off their ass and start releasing more of them as well as PS2 games as well.
