Gnickers87 Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 Good News about Madden 09 for PS3 EA Sports is serious about earning cred PS3 gamers. Their upcoming press event for the 20th Anniversary of Madden is an exclusively PlayStation affair. The final playable versions of this year's Madden will be present, and only the PS3 and PSP versions will be shown -- no love for the Xbox 360 or Wii. This is an interesting change for the sports company, whose games ran at a slower framerate on PS3 than Xbox 360 last year. However, ever since former Microsoft-exec Peter Moore took over EA Sports, we've been seeing more emphasis on the PS3 versions of sports games. For example, the PS3 was the system of choice when demonstrating NCAA Football at a media event last month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gnickers87 Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 so what there just showing the ps3 versions at the press confrence for the game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Violator Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 Yeah, It's probably a way to try and please PS3 owners who got shafted last year and gain back their trust by showing them direct footage of the PS3 version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dawm Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 GTA5 was 300 mil Halo3 was 194 mil BTW over 500,000 ps3s are predicted to be sold during MGS4 release week and the numbers with MGS4 isnt included with the bundles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LickTheEnvelope Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 I'm assuming that 1.3 mil is the number sold and not revenue... GTA4 did $300,000,000 Halo3 did $194,000,000 I can't imagine MGS4 only doing $1,300,000... that's impossible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gnickers87 Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 MGS4 has closer to 1.5 Million First Day Sales they are now saying, projected to be between 1.8 - 2.1 million for END OF THE SALES WEEK. MGS4 was released on Thursday, whereas the vast majority of games are released on Tuesday. Halo 3 had 3.8 Million First Week GTA IV had 3.34 Million First Week (360 Version) GTA IV had 2.42 Million First Week (PS3 Version) However, some games have better legs then others and some games have frontloaded sales Also, some reports are saying that Sony misread the hype and should have shipped a lot more bundles. (estimate is only 70,000 for all of the USA) A note though, MGS isn't as a big of a Franchise as some people think. No doubt it has a significant hardcore following, but it does not have massive appeal to much of the market. How previous titles sold MGS 1 - 5.6 Million Total MGS 2 - 5.9 Million Total (Including Substance) MGS 3 - 4.8 (Including Subsistence) Those are solid numbers, but as a comparison (only including games from last generation) GTA3 - 11.6 Million GTA:VC - 14.2 Million GTA:SA - 17.2 Million GT3 - 15 Million (they say around 3 million of that was bundles) GT4 - 9.5 Million Halo:CE - 6.5 Million Halo 2 - 8.5 Million SSB:Melee - 7.1 Million Mario Kart:DD - 6.96 Million FF7 - 10 Million FFX - 8 Million Kingdom Hearts - 5.5 Million Prediction: Based on the hype, reviews and the fact there are few other big games coming out this Summer,(for any console) I see MGS4 being the top selling MGS game, breaking the 6 Million mark lifetime. I think the inclusion of Metal Gear:Online will help the game have longer legs. However, many people that I know (anecdotal as it may be) don't even know that MGS4 has a multiplayer.
