More made up numbers for your perusal, courtesy of VG chartz.

user39158004113d ago

Which numbers are not made up? All numbers are guesstimates and will always be... Well the good news is that the systems are selling still lol... Like always xbox first in USA and last in Japan hehehehe, while PS3 do good worldwide. Im used to it and should everyone else adopt to the changes and enjoy the game.
WII-U/ps4/720 adapting in motion...

DonMingos4113d ago

That's the positive gamer posture I am talking about... Bubbles

AngelicIceDiamond4113d ago

The European VGChartz are the ones that are relevant then?

I don't go by these numbers also but it sorta makes sense considering its the U.S market. And Vice Versa European market. Its their respective regions after all.

@Janitor Why a comment just trolling Sony PS Vita and Sony exclusives? you are the worst kind of fanboy that exists on this website, because you are not a fanboy in the positive sense of the word that is to love some games from a company, you are a "hateboy", in this case, a "Sony Hateboy".

What is embarassing is your posture as a gamer.

Janitor4113d ago (Edited 4113d ago )

Not trolling, just stating facts. I don't "hate" Sony. I don't love them either, they're just a company that makes some very stupid decisions, especially with the vita. Also, I have bought two PS3's and have been a plus subscriber for over a year. PSN ID is LordJ81 look me up if you don't believe me. The PS3 is a great console, but there needs to be some balance here, as people on N4G gush over it like schoolgirls at a Bieber concert. So get over yourself, this is a sales article, what did you think we'd be talking about here, meatloaf recipes?

Ezz20134113d ago

your facts are from vgcharts

which mean ..those are not facts

DonMingos4113d ago

That is just a troll comment. You watch the sales numbers and what do you see? No PS3 exclusives in the Top 10 and low Vita sales. You even called one console sales numbers embarassing... What is that? That is pure hate towards a company and you know it...

I don't know if a PS Vita stole your girlfriend or something, just get over it, eat some meatloaf and just thank all this companies for keep supporting this industries with games and consoles, wether you buy them or not.

Skips4112d ago (Edited 4112d ago )

"C'mom Vita this is just embarrassing. Outsold by the old DS, and destroyed by the 3DS again?"

LOOOOOOOOL, both the DS and 3DS are outselling both the Wii AND the Wii U? I don't get how it's embarrassing for them to outsell the PSVita. In that case, the Wii U must be a complete failure (sale wise) too right?

"Also, funny how the console that "has no exclusives" has TWO in the top ten"

What? Halo? Microsoft's BIGGEST franchise? No shit it would be on the list, you would be a complete retard if you didn't think it would be. Just like how ANY Gran Turismo game would be there too if one was released in 2012. DEEEERRPPPPP.

Kinect Adventures? lol

"If you guys actually bought the crap you praise so much, that might change..."

You mean games like Gran Turismo? Uncharted? God Of War? Killzone? LittleBigPlanet? Just fyi if you've been living under a rock, most of Sony's games this year have been new IP's. Not HUGE FLAGSHIP titles like the ones above, of course they would have low sales. New IP's usually tend to have low sales at first. Why do you think Microsoft likes to churn out the same old shit year after year? GUARANTEED SALES. They don't like taking risks unlike that "other" console.

"but there needs to be some balance here, as people on N4G gush over it like schoolgirls at a Bieber concert."

Like that never happened when the 360 released? Everybody was bashing Sony because "they had no games", *looks at years 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, and 2013 (ESPECIALLY 2013)*

Funny how times have changed right?

otherZinc4112d ago (Edited 4112d ago )

@Janitor,

LMAO! And, you're correct. Some people with their eyes always closed "Can't handle the Truth"!

Tales Of Graces Ƒ Retro Review – Holding Out For a Hero

Gary Green said: Namco Bandai heard the call of many fans asking for the PlayStation release of Tales of Graces which was originally released seemingly exclusively for the Wii back in 2009. If you’re acquainted with the Tales series then Graces f won’t be something entirely new to you, yet if you’re a newcomer then you’ll find a plethora of gameplay mechanics and nuances that distinguish this series from other JRPGs. While the game finds itself following the traditional archetype of JRPGs, such as a somewhat clichéd story, Graces has something to offer to both veterans and newcomers alike.

Odd this and the xillia games still haven't gotten remasters yet.

It's A Crime That There's No Sleeping Dogs 2 Yet

Huzaifah from eXputer: "Sleeping Dogs from the early 2010s is one of the best open-world games out there but in dire need of a resurgence."

LG_Fox_Brazil1d 4h ago

I agree, I consider the first one a cult classic already

isarai22h ago

You say "yet" as if it's even possible anymore. United Front Games is gone, along with anyone that made this game what it is

CrimsonWing698h ago

That’s what happens when games sell poorly. And I’ve seen people wonder why people cry when a game sells badly… this is your answer.

solideagle7h ago

Majority of the time it's true but if a company/publisher is big (in terms of money), they can take a hit or 2. e.g. I am not worried about Rebirth sales as Square will make Remake 3 anyway but if FF 17 doesn't sell then Square might need to look for alternative. <-- my humble opinion

Abnor_Mal7h ago

Doesn’t Microsoft own the IP now since they acquired Activision?

Abnor_Mal3h ago

Oh okay, Activision owned True Crime, but when that didn’t sell as intended it was canceled. Six months later Square Enix bought the rights and changed the title to Sleeping Dogs.*

*As per Wikipedia

boing16h ago(Edited 6h ago)

Sleeping Dogs was a sleeper hit back then. It was fantastic. It actually still is. Would love a sequel to this, or at least a revive of True Crime series.

Lord of the Rings: Battle for Middle-earth II - PC Wore it Better

Lord of the Rings: Battle for Middle-earth II was an intriguing and unique RTS title, that sadly suffered in its console port.

dadavis199219h ago

Was just thinking about this game and wishing I had a way to revisit it. The way EA scrubs these titles from existence once their licensing runs out is horrid.

Michiel19898h ago

there is a client made by modders and it also works online.

kevco338h ago

Indeed. The game can still be played online on PC.

Xbox 360 players, though? Bang outta luck.
