In a belated translation of Capcom's Q&A following the company's latest financials, the Japanese publisher labelled PlayStation3 sales as "sluggish" and in a double-pronged attack claimed the "PSP hasn't achieved the numbers expected."
Perhaps a reminder of why the Japanese publisher has adopted a multi-format development policy regarding titles such as Resident Evil and Devil May Cry, it's worth noting that Capcom have created one of the most successful titles to appear on the PSP in the shape of the Monster Hunter series.
Plenty of unforgettable games have completely messed up their players throughout the years, all the way back from the PS1 days to the dark recesses of the modern internet.
Gary Green said: Namco Bandai heard the call of many fans asking for the PlayStation release of Tales of Graces which was originally released seemingly exclusively for the Wii back in 2009. If you’re acquainted with the Tales series then Graces f won’t be something entirely new to you, yet if you’re a newcomer then you’ll find a plethora of gameplay mechanics and nuances that distinguish this series from other JRPGs. While the game finds itself following the traditional archetype of JRPGs, such as a somewhat clichéd story, Graces has something to offer to both veterans and newcomers alike.
Huzaifah from eXputer: "Sleeping Dogs from the early 2010s is one of the best open-world games out there but in dire need of a resurgence."
You say "yet" as if it's even possible anymore. United Front Games is gone, along with anyone that made this game what it is
That’s what happens when games sell poorly. And I’ve seen people wonder why people cry when a game sells badly… this is your answer.
Majority of the time it's true but if a company/publisher is big (in terms of money), they can take a hit or 2. e.g. I am not worried about Rebirth sales as Square will make Remake 3 anyway but if FF 17 doesn't sell then Square might need to look for alternative. <-- my humble opinion
Oh okay, Activision owned True Crime, but when that didn’t sell as intended it was canceled. Six months later Square Enix bought the rights and changed the title to Sleeping Dogs.*
*As per Wikipedia
Sleeping Dogs was a sleeper hit back then. It was fantastic. It actually still is. Would love a sequel to this, or at least a revive of True Crime series.
I wonder what Capcom thinks of the 360 sales. 'Disastrous' is a fitting word.
... actually, I wonder what Microsoft makes of the 360 sales. 'Bad Business' are the fitting words.
Ps3 sales sluggish when they are pretty much selling the same as the 360 in the same time frame. It would also help if they actually tossed ps3 owners some games such as lost plant and dead rising instead of giving away exclusives like RE and DMC. But oh well companies like capcom that always have something negative to say about the ps3 and never anything positive we will see where there will be at in 2yrs time. Ps3 does need a breakthrough game not a game that is using 30% power a game that uses at least 70% to show what the game is really capable of and to shut devs up once and for all

Man stupido Capcomino they justo needo reasono too mako moro money so theyo releaso multio platformo. Ando the makero doesnto liko consolo warso ando theyo repliedo thato theyo releaso the gamo multio platformo becauso theyo wanto moro people to playo the gameo. My questiono iso why noto mako Losto Planeto and Deado Risingo on Playstiono Triplo? It doesnto make senso...me thinko theyo just dunto likeo playstationo threeo...
since the headline is misleading!
Capcom is labelling ps3 SALES as sluggish, not the system itself as the title infers =/
