The worst game of this generation are selling the most copies. Pretty depressing.

Reggie lost his little bet. Both versions of MW2 outsold NSMBW.
I'm not going near the thread at GAF, what are they saying?
maybe he was talking about the DS version of MW2?:lol
Reggie spoke to one of my wife's MBA classes at Seattle University. She didn't know anything about him, but said he seemed like a total douchebag.
Forza 3 did pretty well. :teeheeFlopza 3.
The game sold a total of 114K units across the Wii, Xbox 360 and PS3 during the November NPD data period.
I thought PC titles don't chart.
PC games don't chart 'cause nobody buys 'em :teehee

I'm pretty sure NPD still charts PC sales monthly.
PC retail titles chart, but they obviously don't track sales from DD services (almost none of which release any real numbers).

I wonder if you take Steam sales in addition to retail sales, if Dragon Age outsold or is close to the number of Xbox 360 copies sold. I know I slag on PC gaming, but I would honestly be a little shocked if the console port pushed more units.

revolting numbers for MW2, why the fuck is that game so popular? Poop 4 hour campaign and multi thats the same as MW1
Xbox 360 also led games sales in November, with four of the top ten console games with third party titles selling “more on Xbox 360 last month than on the other current generation platforms combined.”
"While there has been a lot of focus on Wii sales as compared to last year, the system was still the best-selling console system by a margin of 54%. At this same point in the PS2 lifecycle, the PS2 was down in unit sales by 23% over the previous year, but as history has shown, it continues to have a great deal of life left in it. So focusing on a comparison to Wii's stellar 2008 performance masks the reality of just how well this system is selling."

Valve making smart business moves by using what would've been the dev budget for a PS3 version for marketing the PC/360 versions instead.
The best part about all the fanboy tears is the insistence of some people that the PlayStation 3 is going to overtake the Xbox 360 in terms of sales... eventually. Microsoft is moving towards their fifth year with the Xbox 360, do they really care at this point?
Obviously, Sony is just biding their time until Microsoft launches a new system and then - pow! - the PlayStation 3 will really take off!

They have the more powerful system this time...
Also, some compelling software would have been nice. I always felt bad when list wars would start and people would resort to listing PSN titles until this year.
Were people in the NPD prediction thread expecting the PS3 to win, is that the source of the outrage? I figured it would be assumed that MS would take the month, what with MW2 being so tightly connected to the brand.

This does mesh with the "musings" thread; plenty of PS3s sold, not so much software. Shame about Uncharted 2 not doing better, but I'm guessing it's about on par with expectations. There's just this weird, massive gap between good retail performance and stuff like MW, Halo or GTA (or whatever strange hits Nintendo has), and no PS3 exclusive will ever do that well.
There are no 360 games that will look as good as Uncharted 2 or Killzone 2.
That said, we need Sony to exist and thrive, so that gamers can force Microsoft to offer Xbox Live for free one day.

Why do people always say things like this? Of course there will be a Xbox 360 game that looks better than those two, and there are some that'd argue that Killzone 2 is no graphic bar either.
Probably Gears 3 or some stupid game like that.

Sony cockteased fans with bragging about its Black Friday numbers, so a NPD victory seemed like a slam dunk. I didn't really get it either, because I believe I stated just last month that Call of Duty is pretty much synonymous with Xbox at this point.
I mean, if the Best Buy and Wal-Mart ads were to be believed, Modern Warfare 2 wasn't even released for the PlayStation 3.
In the end, this proves what I said all along, that Microsoft has the strongest platform for online content, which has been the catalyst for sales this generation. Sony could offer free handjobs, and it'd still be in second place.

I'd rather see Sony get throttled to the point where we end up with one (proper) console future.
Dude, Stoney Mason, I like you and all, but the argument that "game on console x will always look better than game on console y" never pans out, unless one sticks around significantly past the other's lifespan. That's just fanboy poppycock.
A developer will come along and always use the hardware to make a better looking game, regardless of the platform.
I'm kinda with Stoney here, Willco. Most 360 game run on the Unreal engine whereas U2, KZ2 , and other Sony exclusives run their own individually.
I guess I'm the only one who thinks Banjo: Nuts and Bolts is the best looking game so far this gen. Granted I haven't played Uncharted 2 yet, but it at least looks better than Grayscale: The Game.

I'm with Stoney Mason too. None of the big 360 games are really graphics beasts, and no one actually cares. I still remember playing the Forza 2 demo at a friends house on a crappy 30-some inch SD TV from some eastern euro company, and they were all saying how great the game looked. Who am I to tell them otherwise.

I honestly don't see how any game would overtake Uncharted 2.

It's called being short sighted. And if you don't think that either Microsoft or another developer is working on a title that looks as good as or better than Uncharted 2, on both systems, you're mistaken.
Again, this statement never pans out. Developers always do more with hardware, it always happens. Even if Gears 3 was the best looking game of all-time - and who knows, maybe it will be - I would expect another game on the PlayStation 3 or Xbox 360 to inevitably surpass it.
Uncharted 2 is better looking than Banjo. Hell, everything is better looking than Banjo. Banjo-Kazooie XBLA is better looking than Nuts and Bolts.Square.Fucking.Nose.

Do you seriously want to argue that Uncharted 2 represents the zenith of console gaming, in terms of visuals? If so, I am going to save this post, so we can look back and have a laugh a year or two from now when something inevitably looks better than it.
oh ya, nothing will ever look better than U2 on 360 :lol ever :lol

Hey, it would be nice to be wrong so I'd take the mockery with a spit and a smile, I just don't see it happening. Uncharted 2 doesn't have enough blatant compromises, and studios like Naughty Dog don't grow on trees, especially not on the 3rdpartybox. Of course, with sales performance being what it is, it's questionable whether or not Sony is going to be pushing this angle either.
That said, it would be nice if they could do something about the damn eyes for the next one.oh ya, nothing will ever look better than U2 on 360 :lol ever :lol
I guess I'll just have to retract my whole fucking argument now. :-\

Cryengine 3 and id tech 5 are both on the horizon, so I wouldn't start handing out awards just yet.

What are you guys talking about? Modern Warfare 2 is pretty great, and arguably one of the best multiplayer games on a console. I guess if you're a butthurt JRPG fan, it must suck, but for people that like good games, it's awesome.
Even the single player, with its stupid storyline and completely disposable gameplay, is fun enough to play through.
What did Reggie say? OH WAIT, I DON'T CARE BECAUSE WE PLAY GAMES ON THIS FORUM NOT TALK ABOUT PR BULLSHIT
Lock this thread, demi.
yeah you can:
the 360 doesn't have a single game nearly as good as Uncharted 2
