Why do Microsoft exclusives sell better than Sony exclusives..

[radgamer420]

Looks like the PS3 in getting some holiday exclusives this year. LBP Karting and Playstation All-Stars is scheduled to release this holiday season.

Meh. Not interested in either of those.

PSABR is day 1, LBP Karting would be day 1 but I have other financial obligations . REALLY looking forward to All-stars though.

To be fair MS just recently opened up a few more studios. My guess is to get ready for next gen.

Really? Good news then. Hopefully they're not Kinect focused.

LBP Karting, so far, has been pretty dang fun.

Well that all but confirms a cheaper PS3 on its way aimed at the kids.
About time they decided to tap into that market.

Take a look at
-MGS Vancover
-MGS London
-MGS Virginia
-MGS Victoria
-MGS Redmont (Platform Next)
-Skybox Sports
-Twisted Pixel
-343
-Press Play
-Lionhead
-Rare



Then there is these guys:



Not to mention they are activley recruting at the moment....

Yeah I hope not too.

Yeah I hope not too.

Considering the number of job posting they currently have, these aint all "Kinect" games...

Let's hope not!!

One in particular does say core games development. Shooters, RPGs, and action/adventure. So thats good. Some say Kinect but others are core so that gives me some hope.

Alan Wake was another niche title that MS took a chance with, and it paid off too. Gamers indeed like those unique titles.

Tbf Alan Wake was coming regardless, the developer was remedy afterall, in fact thats one game I think would have better multiplatform

It was multiplatform.
I don think Remedy ever consider the PS3, far too alien for a small team.

That and they may have some sort of deal with Microsoft because they funded the first title. Either way, we probably won't be seeing it on PS3 anytime soon.

so... LBP Karting and Wonderbook can be added to the other underperforming exclusives on PS3.

[Soldier 95B]

I didn't realize Wonderbook was for sale already.

[Yungstar 2006]

UK chart ..
LBP Karting last week entered at 27, this week down to 29.
Wonderbook entered this week at 27.

[Soldier 95B]

Well, I must say, I haven't seen a single advertisement for it.

[mynd]

Remember how much air time wonderbook got at Sonys E3?
I would have thought they were goin gin all guns blazing given that.

[Ghost-Rhayne]

They were never expected to be run away successes. Still, they now exist as part of PS3's game smorgasbord and can satiate some gamers' desire.

i really need to find an old psm3 mag which had an exclusive preview of alan wake on ps3 lol it was around launch time on ps3

That was my thought as well. With that much dedication, I figured they were going all out for the holidays on this title.

[DarkVincent07]

I don't think wonderbook and lbp karting are the types of games to sell a lot on release, but instead be slow burns that manage to keep selling and appealing to the younger audience

yep and again Sony fails in commercializing their own products. whoever is the marketer at Sony, they really need to fire the idiot and get some fucking standards for pete sakes.

It was originally anounced "for next gen consoles" in 2005, when they were pitching for a publishers.
But at E3 2006 it was signed up with Microsoft. About 6 months before launch of the Ps3.
And 4 years before the game released.
Article was probably eary 2006 sometime, when we all tought the PS3 was launching in May.

HI guys! I am new here and would like to know if anybody knows if PS3 is better than XBOX 360? I am planning to get one for my boys. I am currently debating between PS# and XBox. I would appreciate for the help, Thanks!
