Wow 360 price drop actually did something....from 3000-5000 units....

Real gamer 4 life5784d ago (Edited 5784d ago )

Please stop approving vcharts already. enough is enough. last week vcharts was wrong about japan numbers.

ILikeButter5784d ago

The PS3 sales weren't very good also..

Playstation Man5784d ago (Edited 5784d ago )

FFXIII, WKCs, etc, etc...

AND HEY! How about them PSP sales! DAMN! And way to go Siren making the top 10 and breaking the Wii/DS Shovelware dominance of Japan. Awesome game! It deserves some respect!

mikeslemonade5784d ago

It's not the fact the PS3 aren't good because they won't be very good for a while. It's the fact that the sales did not go up at all with the release of Siren. Come on Japan! You have failed me!

leila015783d ago

No one buys games for the PSP.

Xbox 360 is slowly gaining on the Feeble-station 3. What will Sony do this Christmas when everyone is buying xbox 360's for all those RPG's they have hitting and Sony has none. Zero. Zilch cause Sony thinks FPS are where it's at.

Unfortunately Sony is always 1 gen behind the times. FPS were king last gen, as the xbox proudly displayed. Sony is to stupid to get anything right, let alone market share and consumer happiness.

Playstation Man5784d ago (Edited 5784d ago )

Why not go and defend your console in that thread about your version of Rage and probably Doom 4 too being total CRAP! Why? Disc-Capacity Lemming! Haha, Blu-Ray is just for movies right? Bwahaha!

LOLZ AT YOU! Still more than 2:1 during a price cut week. Congrats XBOT! Your console is still getting it's ass kicked in Japan and Europe on a weekly basis!

Also, FPS is LAST-GEN? What are your consoles two biggest games MORON. HALO 3 and Gears (basically an FPS in terms of gameplay mechanics) CONGRATS FOOB!! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Poor Xbots5784d ago

Uh Siligon, when FF13 releases exclusively for Japan, your gonna see 360 sales drop big time, and PS3 sales go up faster than a skyrocket.

Poor Xbots

Silogon5784d ago (Edited 5784d ago )

Gears isn't a FPS, ya stupid TW@T RASH. Wake up! Man the idiocy of most of you people astound me around here and it's always the PS3 owners who are this delusional. I'm often ashamed to own one.

Edit to below:

Feel free to message my PS3 TAG right now, if you'd like. I've had to validate my system claims here dozens of times. Give me your screen tag, I'll be happy to send you a validation message.

hahah

Edit to below:

I knew this is how you'd conduct yourself when you realised how foolish you were in saying I didn't have one. You'd, cake walk yourself around into other things you don't like about me.

You ps3 only owners are all the same.

Playstation Man5784d ago (Edited 5784d ago )

My comment said it is basically FPS in terms of gameplay mechanics. Are you honestly going to argue that?

And no you don't own one. You're a bigger fanboy than PoG most of the time. A PS3 owner wouldn't come on here and say what you did in the first comment.

Go defend your console in other threads. Come on, go on. Go for it! I'm sure you can spin the fact your versions of Rage and Doom 4 are going to be GARBAGE. Congrats!

EDIT: Oh geez, douchebag only has two bubbles! He can't argue bitterly about how crappy his console is and how it's lost all momentum in everything as of late, awwwww. Poor Silogon. Go log on to one of your multiple accounts and come back. Please! It's fun watching you contradict yourself. PLEASE!

OH you have one? Ok, here's an idea, STOP WHINNING AND SELL IT THEN. Not a gamer, just a fanboy you are.

EDIT...AGAIN @ Silodouche: Right...us "PS3 owners" like you right? Idiot.

lol, only his majesty knows.
Vcharts = Garbage

sushipoop5784d ago

Glad to see that Siren is at least in the 10. But still VGChartz shouldn't be approved on this website. Seriously Cyrus might be a cool guy but VGChartz is full of crap. They overestimate 360 sales.

Playstation Man5784d ago

VGChartz is fun flamebait though...

Obama5784d ago (Edited 5784d ago )

lol Tales of Versperia is out for the 360 next week thus the miserable jump to 4000. You can tell that the 360 is dead in japan since this time exclusive rpg won't even boost its sale much.

I also doubt that vg chart is right about this. The price cut of 360 should have no effect on the sales since no people there give a rat anus about the console.

Black ops 4, because it was the last cod of duty I was able to dominate with a +2 k/d ratio. Before all the freaking cheating started to happen. It was nice catching people off guard and shooting at them first and getting the kill. Unlike now, where I shoot people first, but they gun me down with less hits, less time, literally feels like they can kill me in a split second. At times, they are able to run away after me shooting them way more than necessary, yet, the second I'm spotted, I'm dead, there's no me running away to cover. They can do cartwheels, summersaults, backflips and gun you down perfectly. They can shoot you across the map with perfect accuracy. They can jump around like morons and gun you down without even having to correct their aim. They have superman split second perfect reactions. That's the best way to describe it, everything they do is spot on perfect. They can spam and spray (no praying) their gun from far away, because they have no recoil or bullet spread. It always feels like I have to aim and also correct my aim when moving around, while these pricks don't have to do the same.

And yes, I know how to play fps games. I dominated many fps games like: Resistance 1&2, kz 2&3, Socom, MAG, Crysis, Gotham City Impostors, blitz brigade etc. all with 2-4 k/d ratio. Kz2 (lag input controls) and resistance (no aim assist in resistance) being the hardest and were the games I reached either close to a 3 k/d ratio or above.

I truly got to enjoy blacks ops 4 and got my money's worth out of it. Afterwords, I would either stop playing cod games after a while, because of the cheating, or would skip buying cod games for a year or two before buying another.

Numbers 6-9 were some of my absolute favorite early gen PS3 games. I'm still bitter about Incognito and Japan Studio.

Goodguy011d 12h ago

The white knight chronicles and infamous games really need to come to modern platforms. MAG I really miss...poor zipper. The ps3 was definitely a unique console despite it being the worst home console of PlayStation.
