2 - The title is misleading as this is Japan only. PS3 doesn't kick anyone's but anywhere else and even this is a temporary thing.

But this is all I'd expect from Danja.

Twist Twist Twist.

There is nothing misleading about this title, and why are you upset at Danja? The title comes straight from the article. Also, the 1st few lines explain that the sales are from Japan. You need to quit getting offended when your system of choice isn't coming in first.

2.4 - what's so misleading....??

Dude it said it was for Japan in the first sentence..!!

Well considering that NA sales estimates won't be out for awhile..what's the prob..

I don't see why ur complaining it was good news for all consoles across the board..but I guess you just can't stand that the PS3 is selling well..and proving nay-sayers like urself wrong..ohh well

2.7 - @ 2.0 and 2.5

@ 2.0
The PS3 is doing well in almost all countries EXCEPT USA (Europe and Japan being the biggest). So much for Japan being national brand loyalty.

@ 2.5
The PS3 ranked 3rd in overall hardware sales behind the PSP and Nintendo DS Lite. It was above X360 and Wii as stated in the article.

No...he pretty much got 'em down there.

The Wii really doesn't have many games.

As much as I liked Metroid...it got a little boring using the strategy guide to find what the FRICK I was supposed to scan next because it never EVEN GAVE YOU A CLUE!!!

I never...I repeat...NEVER play my Wii anymore. It is sitting there, smiling at me. Yes, two-hundred and fifty dollars is stairing at me and I can't SELL IT because it was a graduation gift from my parents and they would be heartbroken. WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO?

When you create a list of games, and the first 5 are sequals, you've already lost my interest.

What's with all the begging for new IPs when people support the old so well.

So, you've never heard of God of War?

Um...let me spell this out for you:

ALL FOUR SPLINTER CELLS TOGETHER HAVEN'T SOLD AS MANY COPIES AS ONE METAL GEAR SOLID GAME! WHAT THE FRICK MAKES YOU THINK A MEDIOCRE GAME LIKE SPLINTER CELL CAN EVEN COMPARE TO METAL GEAR SOLID 4??? ARE YOU ON DRUGS??? EVERYONE HERE IS LAUGHING AT YOU NOW BECAUSE THAT WAS THE DUMBEST STATEMENT ANY OF US HAVE EVER SEEN!!! GROW UP, KID!

(If you knock me for using all caps, your spelling and grammar had better be on par with mine. Otherwise, I will rip your stillbeating, fanboy heart out and feed it to your 360.)

You do know that Gran Turismo: Prologue has the best graphics of any racing game, right? I realize that it's not just about graphics, but it's already surpassed Forza and there will be model damaging and the largest lineup of cars ever assembled on a game. I'm pretty sure it'll outsell Forza, dude. It always has.

Ninja Gaiden 2? Why would something need to compete with that? We'll all be playing Devil May Cry 4, right? Ninja Gaiden WISHES it could be Devil May Cry. If not, we have God of War 3...which will, inevitably, have better reviews than Ninja Gaiden 2. There's also another Heavenly Sword on the way, if you didn't know.

Are you suggesting Warhammer will sell well?

Let's just laugh now and forget you ever even mentioned Warhammer.

I just don't like the Wii, the console is last gen. I'm happy with my 360 and PS3. Both consoles have good line up of games over the next couple of years. I just hope MS won't ditch the 360 when they introduce a newer version of their console.
