IGN:Since the beginning of September, the PlayStation 3 has outsold the Wii nearly 5:1 in Japan, with Sony's console moving 257,254 units compared to just 52,229 for Nintendo, according to an Ascii Media Works research survey. Microsoft sold just 17,716 Xbox 360 consoles in Japan during the same three-week period.
Salman from Tech4Gamers writes "Mortal Kombat 9 revived the series from a low point after bringing it back to 2D combat. It marked a new high-point for the franchise due to its incredible roster, exciting cinematic story mode, and high-octane combat."
That game was actually goated. It was the first time ever that I actually tried to get good at a fighting game. Unfortunately the online connection was so dogshit it made it hard to enjoy and eventually I gave up. Haven't really played much fighting games since.
Microsoft has slashed the prices of games across the Xbox 360 store in preparation for its July 29th closure.
The Dishwasher
Vigilante 8
Two non-BC and no-PC-version Arcade titles I downloaded recently. Dishwasher's sequel is on Steam at least.
I've also downloaded Ninety-Nine Nights II (shame the first wasn't available). I still want to download Burnout 3: Takedown before the weekend's up, though that is still the full $9.99 non-discounted price
The Xbox 360 Marketplace is officially shutting down in three days, which means dozens of exclusive, digital-only 360 games will no longer be available to purchase anywhere else once it does.
The Xbox 360 will be almost 20 years old next year, and to celebrate this milestone Microsoft have decided to obliterate all of its online functionality.
Fortunately, the X360 was jailbroken a long time ago, so a good part of its library is available for download from 'alternative' sources. Still, it's a bummer to see the store going away.
Dawn of The First Day
-72 Hours Remain-
Also they can keep the store up for life if they wanted.
Series X for the back compat titles, and OG Xbox and X360 for those not on BC. I pretty much bought all of the digital games I want for the 360 so I am good.
IGN ur starting to become a joke, wit all this back and forth contradiction.
Pick sumthing and stick wit it
I think both uncharted 2 and GoW3 will sell some consoles. But it'll definitely get ugly once FF13, FFvs13 and GT5 is released.
What happend to XBOX 360 is beating ps3 in japan lololol IGNorat
They should report on this after that stupid articel about x360 outselling the PS3 4:1 the week before launch of the slim.
