This article covers NPD's sales data for console hardware and video game software for the month of September 2009.
Gary Green said: We have a juxtaposition of 2D and 3D visuals, flashy turn-based combat, quirky anime characters with cheeky dialogue with plenty of partial nudity; Yes, this is a Compile Heart JRPG. Whilst the engine is borrowed from Hyperdimension Neptunia mk2, Mugen Souls is more of a Disgaea spin-off. It’s not a strategy RPG as such, it merely sits within Disgaea’s ever-expanding universe (Multiverse? Netherverse? Your guess is as good as mine). You won’t find cameos though, since Mugen Souls is a franchise which aims to stand on its own two feet.
Huzaifa from eXputer: "2008 was home to the likes of Call of Duty: World at War, Dead Space, GTA 4, Far Cry 2, Left 4 Dead, and many other hits, which is outright remarkable."
While the mainstream media always sees things turning in favor of the hero, here are 6 games that own being a bad guy.
Pretty much all of these games listed are based around a morality system you don't have to be bad and you don't have to be good.
It seems to have left out some real amazing games like red dead redemption 1/2,ass effect and true crime la/ny
Armored Core VI?
Ok, I'm really missing something here. Just beat chapter 3 earlier this evening, unlocked A-rank Arena fights. I'm not seeing or sensing any branching paths or morality system and I've done every side mission and arena fight available to me up to that fight.
Is something big coming soon to branch the story?
No mention of Grand Theft Auto? Saints Row (original trilogy), Manhunt? Also The Suffering (depending on the ending you get).
There will be blood.

Not bad at all! Everything is selling fairly well.
PS3 sold 140k more units with both the 360 and PS3 getting price drops and priced evenly, looks like that settles which console people prefer the most.. Halo 3 ODST sales are a little underwhelming considering previous reports stating it sold like 1.5 million in a week or something.. Uncharted 2 i think will be at 1.6 million units sold for next month
another intresting thing is Batman arkham asylym for the PS3 is still in the top 10 for the PS3 but nowhere on the list for the 360 and Madden 10 is only 40,000 more units sold on the 360 than the PS3.. I think its safe to say that the PS3 is definatley catching up in terms of software attach rates as well.
