Forums - Microsoft - Xbox 360 to outsell playstation 3 slim when...

Steroid on 25 October 2009

Not only is MW2 also on PS3 it's on PC as well. If an if OSDT (an exclusive) couldn't put 360 on top then why would MW2?

The 360 version will be the best selling version but it's not going to actually move any consoles. That MW2 bundle could put 360 on top only in the US, and likely only for a week or so.

Im not making sense? I haven't said that it hasn't sold systems, the systems are bought for the games of course. What im saying is that it hasn't gone on to sell enough systems to call it a system seller and to do that dilutes the real accomplishments of the true system sellers.

You wouldn't call Vampire Rain a real technical masterpiece because it limps over the finish line of looking better than most last generation games would you? I hope not. If you take a litteral interpretation of 'if it sold systems then its a system seller' then its meaningless so either Uncharted 2 is a system seller and the distinction is meaningless or Uncharted 2 isn't a system seller and the distinction is meaningful.

It doesn't matter what kind of system seller you choose to label it. Be it big, significant, or small, the fact remains, Uncharted 2 sold PS3s and caused a 19% increase in PS3's weakest territory. Nothing left to say really, just accept these conditions.

is that was a joke?



jedians on 25 October 2009

not at all y most guys r thinkin like this.Modern warfare 2 is a multiplat form title so i dont think that any one would consider game while making choice of buying between 360 and ps3.It doesnt make sense at all yes i would agree if it would be exclusive to 360.

I know that you have a particluar distatse for anything Sony, but you don't have to make it so obvious...

Gonna help old Squilliam out before he blows a gasket.

What I believe he was saying is that it is not necessarily UC2 that is a system seller rather that the system is selling and UC2 came along and rode that wave.

Did UC2 bump PS3 sales by 25% probably not, did the slim and a price cut almost certainly. Now it has sold truckloads of copies and it certainly hit the shops at just the right time to maximise its sales that is a definate given. It also helps that it deserved its sales.
