M$ is really playing their cards right with this one.

diatom4979d ago

VGChartz daily troll for ad revenue.

pwnd_of_lol4980d ago (Edited 4980d ago )

kinect adventures and Fable 3 are doing excellent!

Black Ops is a gigantic. Medal of Honor looking better than I expected and GT5 is on a roll for flop in NA...

frostypants4978d ago

Gawd the 360 crowd loves them some CoD (yeah yeah, I'll be buying it too).

Assassin's Creed 3 is a dead heat on both platforms. I didn't realize there was so much anticipation for that one. I never even finished the original.

theafroman4980d ago

i wont beleive gt5 is out till i hold it in my hand

KillerPwned4979d ago

Yeah when i get my copy in the mail, I`m gonna be so happy it will be hard to believe i am holding the game lol.

dtrain214980d ago

I'm gettin Kinect instead of GT5. Preorders for GT5 is embarrassing

Silly gameAr4980d ago

Did you hop over from VG chart territory to troll? Just wondering. Seems like the popular thing to day when teh sales are involed.

Meisadragon4979d ago

lol. 360 fanboys lie so much lmao.

There has been no ads for GT5 yet.

DarkTower8054979d ago (Edited 4979d ago )

GT5 will not have amazing sales in the US. Its all about FPS nowadays. But really, is a lack of sales going to stop you from playing/enjoying THE definitive racing sim? Also, I've seen GT5 ads already.

SiteNblog Defender4979d ago

"There has been no ads for GT5 yet."

Same for Fable III and Fallout, and it's kicking GT5's ass in pre-order. Embarrassing for GT5 since the series sold millions and millions of copies.

karl4979d ago

lol 360 doesnt play blu rays kid...

etownone4979d ago

wow ...

you sonykids might take this as trolling but DAMN, dtrain21 is right, those GT5 preorders are friggin embarrassing!!

Meisadragon4979d ago

difference in NA? no one knws much about GT5 yet. It will sell eventually.

Sarevok4979d ago (Edited 4979d ago )

so? when did a game have to sell 1mil to be good?
You fanboys are a poison in the gaming world.

I guess Planescape torment was a bad a game huh?
It had the worst sells EVER ya know? Yet many say it's one of the best RPGs ever made.

You guys and this site make me sick.

moparful994979d ago

Since when did pre-orders mean anything? You do know the only advantage of pre-ordering is free content right?? Retailers are so saturated with copies of big releases anymore that pre-ordering does nothing.. Gt5 will sell really well regardless.. Of course all you have to do is play sales instead of games...

etownone4978d ago

sorry guys ... but this is GT5

and I've been hearing for YEARS this is the best selling game on PLAYSTATION consoles.

now you guys are gonna come and not agree that those figures aren't even a little embarrassing?

This is US we are talking about. Besides, not everyone cares for preorders.

I personally can't wait until I get my hand on my collector edition. The book and the model is well worth the extra $40 if not more.

iPad4979d ago

stop being such a freaking fanboy and be a gamer. Jesus Christ. you fanboys are an embarrassment to gaming.

and btw, GT4 barely sold 2m in the States and it still managed to sell 10m worlwide.

Imperator4979d ago

The average age of 360 fanboys is around 12-13, so I could care less what 360 fanboys think.

Mamajuana4979d ago

Preorders for GT5 seem embarrassing to you. However, the end product of the game itself won't be.

frostypants4978d ago (Edited 4978d ago )

GT5 is a big boy's game, so I'm not surprised.

Games That Were Bad on Release, But Are Now Great

BLG writes, "Some of the most popular games have had a rough start, with some of them being downright unplayable.

Despite that, developers have managed to turn it around for them and make their game worth playing. Here are some games that had a rough start but were pretty great."

Good list..hoped to see Street Fighter 5 there..and it is.

Vits21d ago (Edited 21d ago )

Sea of Thieves... I'm not disagreeing that the game has improved in terms of content. But I feel that the most significant change between now and its release is actually the public perception. Nowadays, most people are aware that the game is a multiplayer PvP-focused experience first and foremost, and not "Black Flag made by Rare". Consequently, people dismissing the whole experience because the single-player aspect is lacking or the story is plain are much less common.

darthv7220d ago

Several years ago, i submitted an idea to Rare that would change up the mechanics of battling opponents in the game. whereby if you died in battle, you turned into a skeleton warrior and had to fight your way back to the land of the living. It was an interesting twist on respawning and would allow the player to experience both sides of a battle.

I keep hoping to see something like that get added to the game.

Kaii21d ago

They consider FO 76 & ME Andromeda to be great now 🤭

anast20d ago

Every game in the last 2 decades...

INMATEofARKHAM20d ago

It's sad that this quick retort is more often than not true... The industry's acceptance of release and patch has gone too far.

gunnerforlife20d ago

Days gone! By the end of the game I couldn't drop it down! I went around so many hours killing zombies! It was addictive by the end.

S2Killinit20d ago

That game was just plain good game. It didnt improve, it was just good.

gunnerforlife20d ago

I don't know, I got it abit late, and struggled for a few days, and then all of a sudden it just got good!!

Fallout Anthology Edition Looks Pretty S.P.E.C.I.A.L.

The Fallout Anthology Edition is coming to PC very soon, and is packaged with some very S.P.E.C.I.A.L. bonuses.

-Foxtrot42d ago

It’s an awful downgrade to the last one they did

They included physical disc back then

ocelot0741d ago

Forgot I ordered this until I got the dispatch email.

FPS_D3TH40d ago

I want the first two games to come to iPhone/android

Friendlygamer40d ago (Edited 40d ago )

I would love the classic fallout games on console. Closest I could find was atom rpg, I liked that one a lot

saint_seya40d ago

I though it was a new Killzone when i saw the image, looks like a hellghast..
