This console-cycle has been the longest in history

TheKayle14016d ago (Edited 4016d ago )

dat ps3 and psvita combo...lol

supremacy4016d ago (Edited 4016d ago )

So...this means you buy into vgchart numbers? You really are a 360 nut by trade, thanks for letting the world know of your hate towards a lovable and recognized brand.

What should be noted is not what the numbers are but the games being released by these companies. Its just amazing to see how quickly the ps3 went from 10 million away to a mere few millions, from no games to a wide selection of games despite arriving later at a premium price. Thats an impressive fact,now if gravitating towards an inaccurate sales chart floats your boat then enjoy yourself while you are at it.

Nevertheless game sales have been on the decline, i think the industry could use a fresh bash of consoles and a better pricing model for the platforms and their games.

@daclynk

Nintendomination? interesting considering wiiu's current predicument, but its good to know Nintendo still has a few loyal fans around, god knows what the world would be like without you guys around to support its ideal of what a next gen console should look and perform like.

3DS is doing great right now and the very same loyal fans who turned on Nintendo when it first release(the 3DS) are back to ride the sattle(nothing new here). Overall, all these companies are doing okay, considering how saturated the market has become and how weak the economy has been. For this i say, congratulations to all.

lilbroRx4016d ago

I love how people brag about/dismiss Vgchartz numbers depending on whether or not they are in their favor.

People will bash one console for having low Vgchartz numbers, but they will say the numbers are inaccurate if they are low for their preferred hardware.

shutUpAndTakeMyMoney4016d ago (Edited 4016d ago )

beats not having new AAA exclusives.

I like games and u like sales.

Back to ur power ranger shooter. part 6.

Dat last of us will be great.

Also check xbox japan numbers.

Dread4016d ago

Lol

Funny you say that because there are two(2) xbox 360 exclusives in that top ten list.

Sony fanboys are so adorable.

Reverent4016d ago

@Dread, this guy is no Sony fanboy. He's a pretty well-known PC fanboy in fact. I'm pretty sure he's just trolling.

daclynk4016d ago (Edited 4016d ago )

That Wii,DS,Wii U and 3ds numbers together.woww more cash for Nintendo.
NINTENDOMINATION!!! although its not credible. lol

MasterCornholio4016d ago (Edited 4016d ago )

A refurbished GameCube is outselling the Wii U.

And you think that's a good thing?

But I agree with you on 3DS numbers though.

Motorola RAZR i

daclynk4016d ago

but its still selling. wasnt the ps2 still selling more than the ps3 when the ps3 was out about 5 months? yea thats what i thought.

AdvanceWarsSgt4016d ago

^^^Bringing up the PS3's launch, which was universally considered a failure, isn't really helping your argument (in fact it undermines it).

PeaSFor4016d ago

now if only nintendo had some creativity left in their soul..... instead of surfing and playing safe with their old IP.

cmon nintendo, put some effort and create a new IP you bunch of lazy "yes men"

RTheRebel4016d ago

Still better than Sony's boring IP's lol
Walk Shoot Enemies CUTSCENCE 10 min long
RInse Repeat lol

PeaSFor4016d ago (Edited 4016d ago )

@RTheRebel

PopRocks3594016d ago

New IPs are on the 3DS eShop. Now go support them.

o-Sunny-o4016d ago

I'm still enjoying my Vita and PS3 everyday. Soul Sacrifice is a great game!

PeaSFor4016d ago

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_Brazil2d ago

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

isarai2d 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

CrimsonWing691d 18h 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.

solideagle1d 17h 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_Mal1d 16h ago

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

DaReapa1d 15h ago

No. Square Enix owns the IP.

Abnor_Mal1d 13h 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

boing11d 15h ago (Edited 1d 15h 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.
