SONY (SCE) Chairman Taragi Hisashi last week said in a statement, "PlayStation 3 (PS3) has shipped 4,000,000 units (Worldwide).'' They had reached 2,000,000 units, point in time at the end of last year when production issues where present, now these issues have been taken care of entirely. SCE currently aim toward the PS3 shipment of 6,000,000 units towards the end of March.
The sony stock price presently 6410 Yen (UP by 60 yen).
Gary Green said: You’ll be forgiven if you haven’t heard of the Ar Tonelico trilogy. The previous two games arrived so late in the PS2’s life-cycle that they simply went unnoticed. While most were tinkering with their shiny new PS3s, Ar Tonelico: Melody of Elemia and Ar Tonelico II: Melody of Metafalica were being ‘returned to sender’ by your local Game stores. Luckily, you won’t need to have played them to understand and appreciate this third and final chapter, Qoga (pronounced k-yoga) tells the story of a racial war between humans and Reyvateils, a breed of biologically produced female cyborgs capable of reproduction, while still having a digital mind.
Oh my god. I kinda wish this would get a remaster on PS5, it would be awesome. One of my favorite games on PS3.
That and 3D Dot Game Heroes. It's a shame that some stuff is stuck on PS3.
Ar Tonelico 3 is good I still prefer the first AT game. The music is solid in all the games and Akiko Shikata is a very talented singer bringing life to the game. Only annoying part is well I find is Saki I always choose Finnel or Tyria. KOEI so needs to HD remaster the franchise along with Ar Nosurge and Ciel Nosurge since it never came to North America. I would day one the Ar Toneliceo games and Ar Nosurge if they were remastered.
I still have the limited edition of Qoga unopened. Unfortunately it never went up in value like I had hoped all these years.
Used to own all these quirky JRPG on ps3 good times. Wish I would have kept them all
Gary Green said: We have a juxtaposition of 2D and 3D visuals, flashy turn-based combat, quirky anime characters with cheeky dialogue with plenty of partial nudity; Yes, this is a Compile Heart JRPG. Whilst the engine is borrowed from Hyperdimension Neptunia mk2, Mugen Souls is more of a Disgaea spin-off. It’s not a strategy RPG as such, it merely sits within Disgaea’s ever-expanding universe (Multiverse? Netherverse? Your guess is as good as mine). You won’t find cameos though, since Mugen Souls is a franchise which aims to stand on its own two feet.
Huzaifa from eXputer: "2008 was home to the likes of Call of Duty: World at War, Dead Space, GTA 4, Far Cry 2, Left 4 Dead, and many other hits, which is outright remarkable."
Just about every year in the 7th generation was great and something we most likely won't experience again.
2009 for example had Assassin's Creed 2, Batman: Arkham Asylum, Dragon Age: Origins, Uncharted 2, Halo 3: ODST, Killzone 2, Borderlands, Bayonetta, and Demon's Souls to name a few.
wow that's a lot of consoles.

Are they shipping too many for consumer demand is the question...You don't want to over saturate the market and give the impression that No one wants it with so many stocked up. You want to give just enough to sell out consistantly and keep people excited about it. Just a thought. But it looks like Sony will hit 6 million shipped when they said they would the last time they announced their potential numbers.
but even if they sold every single of those 4 million they are still behind the Wii by almost a million and behind the Xbox 360 by 6-7 million. But its good to see they finally started producing more. God knows they needed it.
4 million is alot? Well, I know its easier to make but Nintendo is at somewhere around six so I dont think we should be that gun-ho about the numbers......
1 million is alot and although this day and age trillion is commonly known a million is still the key number. Your lucky to sell a million copies of a game so selling a million consoles or even making a million consoles is a big deal.
