Everything dropped. The PS3 seems to be scaling close the 360 though (360 only pushed 15k more) and the Vita's hanging smooth despite it's $250 price tag.

TekoIie4397d ago

PSV's competition is doubling its sales tho. But then again Vita has pretty much only just been released so i guess we gotta wait a few years to see some real games come out for it.

MS must be happy with how they are each week here in America. Japan although exceptionally good at writing some great games is not something these days a good majority of players are interested in and so it's rather less of deal i would think 360 not peforming there for MS. Behind a little in Europe but overal they're in great shape. The world sales tend to look bad perhaps for MS but all considering, i'm sure they're happier than Sony is

JoeReno4397d ago

Wow, I think I've lowered my intellect reading this trash comment. Maybe English is a second language for you so I don't fault you for that, but the trolling is unacceptable.

yabhero4396d ago (Edited 4396d ago )

I think Microsoft wants you to hop off..

Digimortal4397d ago

Sweet, Resident Evil Operation Raccoon City still on that list for both systems. Good it deserves his sales.

TekoIie4397d ago

Im suprised it sold better on xbox :0. Didnt RE5 sell better on ps3? I just thought the fans of the franchise were mainly on the ps3...

Digimortal4397d ago

It's about Even i think. I could be wrong.

TekoIie4397d ago

yeh theres not much of a differeence at all but its still strange. Then again these are just the US sales and the xbox has a dominance there so worldwide sales are probably much different.

MaxXAttaxX4396d ago

It's because it's a shooter not a Resident Evil game.

Not hard at all to figure out.

TheUnbiasedLion4397d ago

American 360 owners STOP BUYING MW3.

Bad people bad bad bad.

CaptainofCrush4397d ago

It's like this, you either smoke or you get smoked.

LittleBigPlanet 3 Servers Are Officially Shut Down 'Indefinitely,' Sony Confirms

Sony has confirmed that LittleBigPlanet 3 servers on PlayStation 4 will remain offline “indefinitely” following troubles with the service from earlier this year.

rlow19h ago

Sad day, hopefully they’ll allow a third party server solution. Goes to show game preservation is an uphill battle.

blackblades1h ago

Sad day oh wait everyone that whining about it didn't play it or haven't played it in years and never was going back to it. Funny how people start to care when this happens but when it was actually up those same people didn't even pay attention to it.

What needs to be highlighted by this is that the series has had 4 main games then that go kart spin off yet sony let them all die.

There is 0 games like this on ps5 and to my knowledge 0 first party main kids games no tech demo crap

Sony purchased Media Molecule studio the ip then tossed it away letting it rot for over 7 years yet the community carried on until now were we have lost 16 years on all games of content along with no replacement.

Everyone goes on about ea killing studios but sony has killed way way more but its fine its sony they can do no wrong.

Before the sony blidboys track me down again go fire up your holy boxes all the dlc they tossed out all the trophies and all the user content needs a server side handshake that no longer works. Yes offline single player version 1.0 works but that is it.

Media Molecule was not cut i know but they only made LBP and dreams it was reported they just missed the chopping block
https://gamerant.com/little...

Do not forget the dreams game was tossed out 2020 but 3 years later support was pulled
https://www.digitaltrends.c...

All in all this is another failure at sony on a long long list in the past 10 years

Inverno3h ago

It's kind of hard to disagree when SONY has a history of abandoning many of their IPs. They killed Mod Nation and turnt it into LBP Karting because of brand recognition but left it to die too. They made their own Smash Bros only to rush the studio, and turn the game into an advert for recent release at the time and still let it die. They shut down PS Home for more or less the same reason, they left it to rott till it became too broken and exploited to bother fixing.

just_looken1h ago

This right here

Playstation home is what facebook is trying to make now but in vr that metaverse deal

Imagine if sony kept up ps home development

The death of playstation forums was also a huge loss

u-bEttA-rUn2h ago

Their games were unable to attract the masses every game that came out the attachment grew smaller and smaller they advertise LBP for years the industry changed and then came fortnight... You want Sony to continue to support them which cost them money that they're not getting back from the studio.

Tacoboto4h ago

I feel bad for Media Molecule. For the ideas they have it seems they need a publisher that supports games like this and Dreams especially for as many players as possible.

DOMination-4m ago

Sony in the Andrew House era did support them massively though. They let them do their thing with LBP and spent millions marketing it. I remember one E3 they even used LBP to cover the boring parts of the presentation where they talk about sales figures etc.

And then they allowed MM to announce their game on the PS4 console announcement/showcase event and waited the entire generation for them to release it.

Ranking the Devil May Cry Series

VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "Upon finally finishing Devil May Cry 5 recently - after it spent several years on my “I’ll play that soon” list - I considered giving it a fittingly-named Late Look article. However, considering that this was indeed the final piece I was missing in the DMC puzzle, I decided to instead take this opportunity to take a look back at the entirety of this genre-defining series and rank the entries. What also made this a particularly tempting notion was that while most high-profile series have developed fairly evenly over time, with a few bumps on the road, the history of Devil May Cry has, at least in my eyes, been an absolute roller coaster, with everything from total disasters to action game gold."

VersusDMC12h ago

First to last for me...3,4,5,1,2.

VersusDMC11h ago

Me leaving it out should be telling of my thoughts on it. Better than 2 as a DMC game.

Still a good game though.

Friendlygamer12h ago

3,1,4,5 to me, never played 2. 5 gameplay is amazing but level design was really disappointing to me, just a bunch of plain arenas, the story felt like a worse written rehash of the 3rd and the charater models looked weird ( specially the ladies ). Another problem with 5 was that there was not enough content for 3 charaters so I could never really familiarize with any of them

monkey60211h ago(Edited 11h ago)

2.
Dmc.
4.
5.
1.
3.

God DMC2 was an awful game.
And in case this isn't obvious it goes worst to best

Yui_Suzumiya9h ago

1 and DmC. The rest are unimportant.

DarXyde9h ago

Order changes depending on your focus. I tend to focus on gameplay/fun factor, so...

5, 3, 1, 4, 2.

I really didn't like 4 but commend Dante's weapon diversity. The retreading of old ground was pretty unacceptable to me.

But even then... Still more enjoyable than 2 for me

SeTTriP1h ago

This right here is my order as I thought DMC 5 was amazing and obviously 3 comes after 4 was great and 1 for the nastilgic value it holds 2 was so terrible that my local GameStop gave full refunds to people who returned it.

Used to love this one, but X-Men Legends 1 and 2 will always be my favorites, especially Rise of Apocalypse. Would pay some good money to play it today with online multiplayer, back then I had no way to get a modem

RavenWolfx9h ago

Yeah, I loved the Legends games so much.

ZeekQuattro16h ago

I remember buying them dirt cheap on the PS4 and then a few days later I read they were delisted. I was wondering why the bundle was price so low and got my answer when that happened.

Knightofelemia15h ago(Edited 15h ago)

Sad to say this is one game franchise next to the Xmen that needs a sequel. I use to play the hell out of Xmen Legends and Marvel Ultimate Alliance. Was great when my cousin had the OG Xbox play with four other people and then playing online. Great games glad to see it reappear even though I own the discs love the mechanics of this game.

Terry_B14h ago

It got a sequel..but for dumbass #reasons as a switch exclusive.

shinoff218314h ago

It looked so horrible to. They should've kept it similar to the first two.

Asplundh14h ago

Because Nintendo funded it, they did the same for Bayonetta.

Knightofelemia14h ago

I totally forgot about the Switch sequel.

jukins14h ago

Misleading. This page is whats available for people who owned the game prior to delisting.

Abnor_Mal13h ago

The first game was the best imo.
