Lies. It was the best game this gen... So far.

Without a word of a lie, I read Boost's comment and thought, "I hope nnarum doesn't see that"

GTA4 was good, but somehow it just felt smaller than San Andreas. Not as "in-depth"

Even though GTA4 liberty city map was larger than San Andreas... Or so they say.

It was larger but nowhere near as fun as Vice City or San Andreas. Rockstar tried making it too realistic and it backfired. Who the hell wants to bowl or playdarts in the world of GTA? All you did was drive, shoot person, repeat.. The previous installments offered so much more than this crap. The only GTAIV missionthat was acutally fun and didnt feel like a chore was the bank robbery. I wont even get into GTA Online.....

Sir those games you named are either already out, or slated to drop this month. E3 focuses on games Q3-2010 so your list is invalid. That saidYakuza doesn't even appear to be making it state side, and Fat Princess (though promising as hell) is the equivalent to an Xbox Live arcade game. But itdoesn't matter either way, the only game holding weight that dropped exclusive for the PS3 this year is InFamous (Killzone 2 flopped horribly

and its a damn GREAT game).

Which looks lame as hell. Get this, I will be purchasing Fat Princess, but its still an arcade game.


Oh I am sure you'll get your Fat Princess.

In dude's original post he asked someone to post something from Sony that would compete with his list... Fat Princess would be a similiar title (withregards to acadey-ness) to Shadow Complex, which he listed.

Unless someone can come up with a better list for 360, I think releases from both companies for the rest of 09 are at least comparable.

"Flopped horribly" is a bit harsh, no?

Last week's release of the April NPD numbers revealed that the US gaming market saw a 17 percent decline in sales for the second month running. One game apparently hit hard by the decline was the PlayStation 3 exclusive touted as a "Halo killer" by Sony loyalists, Killzone 2. After years in the making and a reported $21 million budget, the game sold just 58,000 units last month, down from just more than 323,000 units in March. Add in the 296,000 units the game sold in two days on the market in February, and its US sales total stood at 677,000 as of April 30.


Helghan's coffers are not filling as fast as before.

Drops like Killzone 2's are not uncommon. As explained by game-industry analyst Jesse Divnich in his analysis of Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars' now-flat sales, most AAA games tend to fall off sharply after their first one or two months on the market.

That said, Microsoft partisans in the verbal console wars were quick to point out that Killzone 2's April sales were less that those of the 21-month-old Halo 3. The Xbox 360-only shooter sold 67,000 units domestically during the month, including limited and collector's editions, reported NPD. (Killzone 2 did not come in a collector's edition.) In its first three months on the domestic market, Halo 3 sold just more than 4 million units, with its life-to-date US total topping 6 million units as of last month.

The discrepancy between Killzone 2 and Halo 3 is eyebrow-raising, given both have roughly the same very high Metacritic scores. However, it has several rational explanations that don't reflect poorly on the PlayStation 3 or the game itself.

Even before it was on the Xbox 360, the Halo series was a cultural phenomenon, with a fan base much larger than that of the original 2004 Killzone for the PlayStation 2. Halo 3 is by far the most popular exclusive on the 360, which had a US installed base nearly twice that of the PS3 as of March--14.9 million to 7.5 million consoles, respectively. Microsoft has also aggressively discounted its error-prone hardware, with the cheapest (and hard-drive-less) model now $200 less than the $399 PlayStation 3.

Furthermore, Microsoft pulled out all the stops promoting Halo 3 in the weeks leading up to its $170 million launch day. With a marketing budget of more than $10 million, the game's trailer was attached to summer blockbusters, and its artwork appeared on everything from soda cans to junk-food bags.

Halo 3 also had the benefit of not launching in the midst of an economic downturn and shrinking game market. The lowered demand for games was reflected by NPD's top 10 list, particularly in 10th-place finisher The Godfather II (PS3), which sold only 91,000 units. In March, the tail-end game on the chart was 2K Sports' Major League Baseball 2K9 (360), with 205,000 units.


Did it meet their expectations? No. Some might be a bit disappointed, but it's not like the game bombed...the sales are "okay".
