Battlefield 3 sales. Which console will sell the most. 360 or PS3.

I believe the 360 will destroy the PS3 in sales just like BC 2. The Xbox is a world class console especially for shooters and the experience of playing on Xbox Live will be superior. But what are your opinions.

Edit: I think I have to state that this is my prediction. Some people are failing to understand that.

May I ask, what exactly is a "world class console"? mrmusicman247

The console with the best online, best controller, more games, better community. This is my opinion but I'm grateful that the world sees this too. Since Ps3 is still in last place.

A console that's better than obviously inferior "continent-class" and "country-class" consoles.

you know classy and fancy....pinky in the air while your drinking your tea.

I still prefer the "village class" PS3 in almost every way. PC always curb stomps both consoles in every instance.

What the hell do sales have to do with YOUR personal enjoyment of a game?

You lemmings never cease to amaze me with your pathetic desperate sales arguments. :lol:

This is system wars. Sales plays a huge factorhere. Are you new?

do you ever post something that doesn't trash the console you don't like?Diviniuz

All I said in my thread was 360 would destroy the PS3 in sales. How is that trashing.

No one has yet answered the question. Which console will sell more copies of Battlefield 3. Make your predictions.

That's irrelevant.

You still have NOT answered my question. Sales have absolutely NO PHYSICAL bearing on how you enjoy games.

Yes it does indirectly. More people to play with means that the online component will last much more longer and won't taper off quickly like it has done for some other games. this meana a greater increase in enjoyment.

If the 360 outsells both ps3 and pc like I think it will I will just laugh

Should be pS3 by a mile but it will probablybe very close with 36o edging it out.

Well it doesn't help that you're are bias towards the PS3 based on your past posts so its understandable that you feel that way. But you did choose to come in this thread did you not.

PC > 360 > PS3

Although you never know the PS3 could outsell the 360 version.

I think it'll be close enough between them.

People's opinions starting to come through. It looks like many people feel the same way. That the 360 version will sell more copies of the Ps3.

I think this will be very close and I dont think its gonna sell that well on all 3 platforms to be honest. I think its releasing to close to Modern Warfare 3 and is up against exclusive big hitters like Uncharted 3 and Gears 3. I think 360 just may edge it.

Or something along those lines...

I get in and read your posts and see what you wrote, and see that this isn't a real discussion. This is you about you trying to shoot down the ps3, not a battlefield 3 thread.

HUH. I posted my prediction that 360 would sell more than ps3? Is that trying to shoot down the PS3. I think you need to take a step away from the forums. I didn't mean to upset you with my opinion.

360, PC then PS3

Yeah I guess many people are thinking that because of the DLC first and extra game, how can the 360 version outsell the PS3 version. I think people will be surprised.

"Which console will sell the most. 360 or PS3."? Well, what happens if the PC version sells the most? What happens if PS3 sells more? What happens if 360 sells the most? What if I were to buy a copy for PC, one for 360, and one for PS3? Maybe I have friends who play online on each of those systems. It doesn't matter as if the game is entertaining enough, many gamers will get the chance to play it. Sales don't determine how much fun people have with a game or which system gets "destroyed" only where more copies are being played. There are other factors to take into consideration.Stinger78

It's really hard to say, which will sell more: 360 or PC. Most people don't have good gaming pcs and 360 is the most awesome console box for shooters. Touch choice there.

I don't consider this a discussion TC. You are just thrashing the ps3 and claiming the 360 is the best console this gen. If you wanted a real discussion you should have said why you think the 360 version of BF3 will beat the ps3 with real explanations, not because: 360 Has best controller, best graphics, best online, bla bla bla. Miroku32

I mainly asked for people's opinions on the matter.

Real explanations include; 360 is the shooter platform of choice. That the consensus I have. Plus awesome Xbox Live features like party chat and voice of people with mics will make communication in the 360 version very important. How are those reasons?

Personally I see the PC outselling the 360 or PS3. The DX11 visual effects and superior player numbers are such a huge pull for gamers wanting to really put their computers to the test. I can easily see PC taking the sales win.

Frankly I don't think people care about sales since both will sell in the millions. I'm thinking between the consoles it will probably outsell on 360 by a 60/40 ratio or something like that.

Ironicaly it will probably sell in reverse order of which platform the game is actually best on - i.e. in order: PC, PS3, 360 in terms of quality - 360,PS3,PC in terms of sales. However the real gap is between the PC and the console versions, the two console version should be similar but most expect this game to be slightly better on PS3 (for what that matters when compared to the VASTLY superior PC version).

Yes it does indirectly. More people to play with means that the online component will last much more longer and won't taper off quickly like it has done for some other games. this meana a greater increase in enjoyment.

jimmypsn

That's only the online component. That depends on the amount of people who are actually interrested in the game. Not just sales. Regardless if a game sells more or less, there is a probablity that people may or may not be interested in the game. It can go many ways.

You can have a game that sells millions, but then the online component may fade away quickly after a few months.

You can have a game that sells millions, but NOT to the point of super millions, but still have a good amount of online players.

You can have a game that sells millions, AFTER a few years on the market, and have very few players online (or more players online, who are still interested)

Umm I have always backed my thinking with rational reasons. I have never outright bashed the PS3 just out of the blue with no reasons behind it. I think you're taking stuff way too seriously here.

Compare this with other exclusives lets on the PS3. You have games that people can still play. But the overall community is shrinking. Some would describe the online component of Killzone 3 as dead in some circles. That's why its important to have more sales.

perhaps you didn't notice but the ps3 outsells the 360 everywhere but the united states. so i and many others would consider that the world class console. plus i think many people on 360 will just wait to buy mw3.

It will bomb on both consoles. Why? It isn't called CoD and casuals, the biggest faction of gamers, love their CoDs..TheFallenDemon

Gotta love how some people classify COD for casuals. Makes zero sense..Games CAN NOT BE casual. ONLY gamers can be casual or hardcore period. COD takes as much skill as any other fps ive played in my 30+ years of gaming.Dont be upset because you get owned..srs.

You're analyzing this way more than what is needed. You have a game which sells 1 million copies on console A. You have the same game that sell 10 million copies on console B. Which will have the longer last online, the more multiplayer game variety, the many more modes to play, the more variability of the competition. Console B will have that.
