Interesting. Nintendo games seem to be selling the most as well:

The top ten selling handheld and home console games in the US were Pokemon Diamond (DS, 1.045 million), Pokemon Pearl (DS, 712,000), Super Paper Mario (Wii, 352,000), Wii Play w/ Remote (Wii, 249,000), Guitar Hero II w/ guitar (360, 197,000), Guitar Hero II w/ guitar (PS2, 142,000), Spider-Man 3 (360, 117,000), Spider-Man 3 (PS2, 105,000), God of War II (PS2, 101,000) and MLB ’07: The Show (79,000).
Guitar Hero is up there too, must be something about the "gimmicky" which people want atm. I have to admit as well as getting a Wii this month I bought Crabgirl a Guitar Hero guitar last month.
What's the DS? :unsure:Quote:

I suspect you aren't so could you please trust me and just use Google before asking any question. A moronic mod would be a first on FST.
:P
Meh...sometimes I Google, sometimes I ask. :sleep:
Seriously though, I'm pretty much outside the video game "loop". I've never heard of that thing, ever. :ph34r:
Well I can't fault you for being outta the video game loop. They are not productive so I can respect that I guess.Quote:

:huh:
Ps3's a slow burner I think... fingers crossed.
ps3 will be top on that charts after there top exclusive games starts to hit market.....those games are only possible on bluray 'cause the amount of stuff that will packed on 1 disc....bluray games for PS3 will change the way we game in future....
and i also read somewhere that 360 is using its 98% of power at the moment, where as PS3 is still using somewhere 30-40% of its power....So guys like i said exclusive games will win the war for PS3 hands down...
No doubt the PS3 will pick up some time next year but I seriously doubt that they will revolutionize "the way we game in future". It'll just be the same as before. But with nicer graphics.
Actually the PS3 has some Xavix rip-offs built into their games too.Quote:

Sounds good, but I like Gabe's idea better:

The dragon lands and fights on the ground (scout walker?:lol:) fireballing knights in the ass
The boss battles are entirely different.
From I've seen it doesn't feel or look like just "another space/air battle game" whatsoever.

Seeing as how the prices differ quite a lot and that, I mean.
Wow, PS3 sales.... ouch.
I've been meaning to get that game. It makes sense that the best selling system will have a best selling game. Hell I want Super Paper Mario too but I can't afford it right now.Quote:

However, out of all of those games, God Of War II is probably the best one. It's story, graphics, and gameplay are excellent.
