All multi-platform games sell better on the 360

Except Final Fantasy XIII

Fable 3 has more pre-orders then GT5
Looks like its gonna be close when it releases

Kinect Adventures is #13 in the list which is very good for for a casual motion-based game...

You're really setting yourself up if you think Fable 3 will sell half of what GT5 will.
"All multi-platform games sell better on the 360"
Bookmark this page, because if Madden doesnt sell better on PS3 I'll bite my own neck.

OT: Still haven't pre-ordered Reach, but Im looking forward to it. There's a review event in L.A. next week so reviews such be coming in pretty soon.

Wrong. Dead wrong
How very ironic that you admonish someone else for 'choosing to ignore facts', when you can't get it right yourself.

Fact is, the ps3 is NOT the better selling console for EA.

If you had done your homework, you would have realised that for FY 2008,2009 and 2010, the 360 was the top revenue generator for EA.

Go on, check it yourself.

What's that?
You want to thank me for doing your homework for you?
There's a good boy.

The real fact here is that Halo is Halo there is nothing new here they will always sell tons of units, the real challenge is to outsell MW2. And about the gt5 thing i don't really think gt5 will sell that well, the game has been delayed for over what 2 years? i am a GT fan since the first one... or i was, thats yet to get confirmed in this one, so yeah i wont get surprised if Fable 3 can out sold GT5 since none of the Fable games have been bad in sales or gameplay.

But that has probably to do with some shadowy finances. Like putting dev cost under the 360 version and only port cost under ps 3.

Porting takes like 10 days for some games.
That compared to 1~2 years for game development.

Could be wrong as fuck but thats what i remembered.

i can't believe people are eating this sh1t that vgcrap serves them, unreal. All of those numbers are bogus, couple of guys come up with numbers and post them on their site. Only legit numbers are Japanese numbers, because they take them from Famitsu or media crate, something i can post on my blog, does that make me legit? naive folks.
How many times did they adjust their numbers? far too many, plus they always adjust numbers once NPD hits, they are know nothing, just guessing game and you are all in it, fools( thos that believe them ).

YRA sales = quality, how could i be so naive...i once thought game of the years, awards, fun, gameplay mattered, how could i have been so wrong...you know what, im buying the greatest game ever made...wii sports./s

The Meerkat5409d ago

Solitare and Minesweeper are better.

ChronoJoe5409d ago

Except all Japanese games.

And Adventure games.

And fighting games.

And racing games.

1Victor5409d ago

if you say ALL it means ALL no exceptions.
Next time think before you write.
This isn't news we all knew halo will sell no mater what but is nice to see someone care enough to make out numbers without providing any clue as to were those numbers came to be.

aaron58295409d ago

and defending "it" already...

wow

Ron_Danger5409d ago

all FPS's sell better on 360 cause thats all you guys play... remember how you guys (and i'm talking about 360 fanboys here in case you couldn't tell) talked about how AW was gonna break sales records and be the Game of the Year... well that game was release already and i think some of you forgot to buy it cause it didn't sell as well as you guys claimed it would...

and now the "new I.P." argument will be used in response to my comment...

and....... GO!

Fable II - A Fantasy Series at Peak Performance

Fable II launched back in 2008 and remains the best the series has offered. Ahead of the series comeback, it's time to look at the classic.

Crows90722d ago

They gotta bring back those gargoyles!

Dudeson722d ago

I'd love to play it again, this time on pc though. Forever waiting on that pc port.

GaboonViper722d ago

Loved this game, oh and i always saved my dog at the end, hope the new Fable has a animal companion.

got_dam722d ago

Fable 2 was the best inthe series. Peter waaaaaaay over promised with fable 1 and it was good but disappointing. He didn't go crazy eith hype for the second game and it was surprisingly awesome. Then he ran his mouth promoting 3 and it was the worst of the 3.

cthulhucultist722d ago

Funny story: Fable 3 had a funny way of keeping the promises you made in the first half of the game and having enough money to defeat the darkness.

You only had to collect enough money to buy 2 stores in a busy market district. You then raise the prices to maximum and you turn xbox 360 internal clock 99 or more years ahead.

The next time you load the game, all the rents from the 99 years are collected immediately.

But yes I agree that 3 was the weakest of the three.

Demetrius722d ago

I only got to play it once 😩 I'm so tempted to buy a Xbox 360 slim but planning on getting the series x soon since I got a PS5 in February Im ready to get saints row 1&2 back, GTA 4, fable 2, but I also want to play infamous 1&2 again Sony screwed us over with the stream only for saints row 2 and other gems smh
