So yeah we had our "Disc changing will make the game unplayable." We had the "Xbox 360 version has 3 disca to create exercise." We had "The PS3 has the better gameplay, graphics." We had the "There is no reason to play the 360 version of any multi-plat at this point.

But then you see this:

http://gamrreview.vgchartz.com/browse.php?name=l.a.+noire

And be amazed, as people decided to pick there the better console for this game. Once again the 360 has managed to surprise everyone and while the lead may not seem to be by much, you got to remember the game released not to long ago, and in that time this gap could grow to proportions that could be in the millions.

So all those flames threads/posts against the 360 version of the game as of now is invalid. HAHAHA!

There being an option has nothing to do with it. Infamously inaccurate source remains infamously inaccurate whether it has competition or not.

Yes, no Gears of War 3 at all. Oh and by the way, because of the new Black ops bundle, Infamous 2 will probably not break 1 million.

I think the point is infamous 2 is coming out in a week or so. Gears on the other hand is a fall title, so it is months off.

No, your point does not take into account the difference in time. People get money with time you know.

I bought the ps3 version of Crysis 2. It was damn near identical to the 360 version...practically pixel for pixel identical... plus with the free online gaming and Sony controller...it lead me to choose the ps3 version easily. Practical all multi plats are the exact same. It just cones down to personal prefrence. However the second true AAA multi plat of this year is most definently superior on the Ps3 The ps3 version of LA Noire is the way to go. There is a much much bigger difference between the Ps3 and 360 versions of LA Noire then there was between the 360 and Ps3 versions of Crysis 2

PS3 owners have all those pesky exclusives to play, where as 360 don't. When you're starved for games like the 360 is, they owners will buy anything.

Do you know how long it took for inFamous 1 to reach 1 million, exactly? Since this is a sequel, it might take even longer for inFamous 2 to reach the 1 million mark.

Obligatory "lol vgchartz."

And even if it is the case, I don't recall Cows claiming it would sell more, just that it was better because disc change wasn't necessary.

Hmmm, weird cause Everyone I've seen on youtube videos has picked it up for PS3, and when I went to pick it up at first they were out of PS3 copies but had 360 copies left over.

Whatever, don't really care either way, I picked my copy up and I'm happy :D

Wrong. It's not that the 360 owners will "buy anything," it's the good quality of the games in which 360 owners like myself buy, such as Gears of War 3. Plus as explained in another topic shown in here (see posts like sts106mat), PS3 exclusives doesn't tend to sell anywhere near the quantities of Halo, Gears of War, Mario, Zelda, etc., nor has any of them turned out to be system sellers (except for maybe GT5).

Sequels actually sell faster and more than their prequels.

Well look at that fancy post! I DO buy PS3 exclusives, I don't care what other people buy. I'll buy Gears this year for the 360 and that's it, then 2 months later it goes back to the DVD player like it is now. I'll be buying U3, Infamous 2, R3, Twisted Metal, Ratchet & Clank: All 4 One and have yet to buy KZ3 because LBP2 is taking up so much of my time but will be buying it for sure.

Technicaly, VG charts is pretty much guaranteed to be wrong all the time as it is just giving estimates. The only question is here is how far off is their estimate in these 2 cases.

Yeah, twice. I love that game. I want to do a Titan run but I think I'll finish Uncharted: DF and Demon's Souls first.

Terrible analogy!
