Army of Two’ becomes 2008’s first All Formats No1 to be based on new IP and is EA’s first new IP All Formats No1 since ‘Black’ two years ago. Released exclusively on Xbox 360 (66% of sales) and PS3 (34% of sales)

[mighty_douche]

Disappointed that UT3 isn't doing better. Coming from a PC back ground I've spent countless hours fragging away. I think a lot of people are giving this a miss due to CoD4, and that's a real shame.

[fenderputty]

regarldess of COD4. I think less people like UT due to it's computer origons and it's speed. It's not being aired in commericals 24/7 on TV like Army of Two is either. At least here in the states it's that way. Arggg ... I hate EA too.

[mighty_douche]

Same here in the UK. I haven't seen a single ad for UT3, but i can't seem, to escape from Army of 2. Guess EA have more money to throw at advertising.

Still, I'm gutted for Unreal, I'm sure if i could sit down with any PS3 owner and a copy of UT with 20 minutes showing them whats possible (especially with the MoDs) they'd run out and snap it up.

[Blademask]

Advertising budget has everything to do with Army of Two. Its a terrible game, yet its steady climing all charts.

Another shooter with a ad campaign behind it. The better game is UT3 hands down.

But you see how much Epic spends on Advertising? I think 3 dollars and twenty cents.

A new trend is starting to no longer be that. Its standard to make terrible games, bland generic titles, included with bugs, and then bash it over the consumers head with non-stop advertising.

Congrats to everyone that falls for this stuff, you are ruining the game industry.

[fenderputty]

Most people don't care enough about these things though. You and I can notice a drop in framerate, bugs or horrid camera control but, the average consumer won't. Not only will they buy the game because it was advertised so heavily but, they'll also like it cause they didn't notice the flaws and loved the two masks and generic story.

The masses still like Brittany Spears and Pop music too. The masses in general just piss me off. lol

[mighty_douche]

Bubbles all round for thinking for yourselves!!

[Cartesian3D]

cooking mama 2 in 11th spot.. and UT3 in 26th ..

what happend to UK people ? they want to cook in the games instead of killing?

BTW cant wait for "MORE and MORE and MORE and MORE brain training" ...

[doodle]

so PS3 9
x360 10

sounds logical

[Snukadaman]

top 10
4 360 titles.
2 wii titles.
2 ds titles.
1 pc title.
1 ps3 title.

surprised the ps3 version of army of 2 is so low...usually games like this are neck and neck.

[doodle]

PS3 version of DW6 is neck and neck with X360 version

PS3 ARMY OF 2 -- 4

X360 ARMY of 2 -- 1

Uncharted has moved up the chart but Mass effect/halo 3 have totally disappeared

PS3 --9 games ( 2 new releases)
x360- 10 games ( 4 new releases)

After teh release of GT5

it will be

PS3 --20 games

x360 --0 games

PS3 outsold x360 in HW sales for both January and February in UK

No need to mention other EU countries since x360 doesnt exist anywhere except UK in EU

[Gam71]

Doodle? Does that stand for your brain.

If the same results were reversed you would be screaming this as proof (yet you cant provide any) of 360's demise.
Yet its not so you say, well its close!?!

then come out with after such and such the entire chart will be PS3!!! with no 360 games?!?! A complete takeover the charts and no doubt you mean every week.
That never happened with the ps2 so no way it will with the ps3 given its position in sw sales and given the 360's (higher ww, check it out) but also given the wiis place.
Which trumps ps3 and 360.

Deluded deluded deluded, narrow minded, pointless (your arguments and you) cant see whats in front of them but has to tell everyone, in the future this will happen.
Cos it isn't now is it. Ps3 has no dominence. The wii does and against the 360 you win with regards to this and that here and there but lose this there... etc.

stick to making stuff up about the future because the facts do you wrong.

[InYourMom]

[InYourMom]

I am INYOURMOM! Both literally and figuratively! You might wanna start calling me daddy! Nice, I always wanted to have a little girl.

It's just funny that you get busted for every one of your at least 10 fake accounts and then you always use the same reply. You are tidus too right?? I'm still waiting for the PSN ID you little PS3 poser.

[Gam71]

Inyourmum.

Well done.
One of the funniest comebacks i have heard in a while.
Doodle that is how you get owned. Watch him and you might learn.

[Mr Playboy]

Sony should made a statue just for you

[doodle]

You are a SHE*ALE.

a SHE*ALE cannot conceive.

PLAYBOT ---again you are coming up with FAKE PSN ID

PLAYBOT aka INYOURDAD aka SNUKADAWOMAN ..........dont pretend that you have a PS3 when you have just got the DEFECTIVE RROD BOX 3 FIX ME

[power of Green]

TunakTunakTun=Nasim=Shmee=Zamb rota?. He always has these funny signature user names(and many accounts.

I just got blasted from N-Jason 360 with slurrrrrsssss up the ying/yang.

I think todays news must be driving them crazy or at least more crazy than they already were.

[Harry190]

what's your point?

[meepmoopmeep]

i'm glad Lost Odyssey is doing well for itself despite the reviews, but word of mouth is always good. i don't like EA and i'm disappointed that better games don't get the recognition some of the heavily marketed ones get.

[ISA_Scum]

I don't care which system is selling more software right now. All I care about is how well Army of Two is doing. GOOD! EA made an awesome game that deserves more than what bunk Edge Magazine gave it credit for. All other media sources are averaging out around an 8/10 which is what the game deserves. Right now, there's no better way to kill an afternoon with a friend that Army of Two. Wicked awesome co-op game!

[Bladestar]

crazy ehh? Lost Odyssey concidered a flopped in the eyes of all anti-xbox 360 people in this site... yet... beating all PS3 games except 1 (Army Of Two) simply because it was just released... and yeah... FPS sells more than RPG.... not much of a flop is it? mmmm... I mean.. seriously.... what can you call all those PS3 games selling less than Lost Odyssey if.. Lost Odyssey is a flop?

[Blademask]

you do understand that this is "UK Software sales charts Week"

Week is the key word there.

Turok was in the top 10 of "weekly" charts again.
You can keep pretending a week of sales = forever performance though, i know you are running out of things to do as far as your hobby goes.

LO's average score, and 14 discs is what makes it a flop.

[fenderputty]

no one in this thread, other then you, has brought up any type of fanboy crap.

I'm glad lost odyssey is doing OK. Again though, disregarding the quality of the game, LO sold well because it also had an extensive add campaign.

[Doctor Strange]

Its nice to Lost Odyssey hanging in there but I'm still concerned about its sales worldwide.

What's surprising to me is that although its in the low 20's Uncharted in hanging in there. Hell yeah Drake.

[poopface1]

there is probaly a big percentage of new ps3 owners who buy that with their console. If I bought a ps3 today, that is the game Id get with it.

[GODofDOOMS]

no one has said Lost Odyssey a flop in this thread so dont bring it up take it to the open zone

anyways im glad Lost Odyssey in top 10 sqaure enix is so good at making games never fail to amaze me

[ThaGeNeCySt]

Square-Enix didn't make Lost Odyssey... Mistwalker did

[Danja]

Uncharted still doing great...

when did N4G become a place to rant racial slurs...some ppl just dont know when to stop...lol..pity...
