But did you notice the top two PS3 games are Sony exclusives. Where the 360 games there is only one exclusive. Guitar Hero II was a IP that started out on the PS2...

Yes, but I also notice that out of top 5 Xbox 360 games sold this year. 3 of them were exclusive and I also notice that Xbox 360 has 9 games rank above the first PS3.

I would also like to add that I can't wait to see what this chart looks like after this year is over. There are some great games coming out, we should see some more PS3 game hit the top 50 by the end of this year.

The 360 had a whole year to roll out games. The chart that you should have seen was the weekly software sales. The 360 and PS3 aren't far off each other. They seem to have a similar sales rate. Which is funny considering one of the reasons why people say the PS3 will lose exclusives is because of poor software sales. From what I saw the PS3 had an exclusive title reach 1 million sales in May of 2007 (7 months after launch- it being RFOM) while the 360 took till September of 2006 for an exclusive to reach 1 million(10 months after launch- it being COD2).

That's why I find the "no games" argument funny. As if some people expeected them to have a AAA title out the door at launch and sell platinum titles like hotcakes.

The list in my link is for the Top 50 games for 2007 so far this year. It has nothing to do with last year sales. Unless you want to look at Total instead of Year.

Ok, I may have been confused as I was looking at the data. I was looking at all their charts and may have shifted them and not realized the data I was looking at.

Mea culpa. Though looking at the breakdown the PS3 is pretty much where the 360 was at the same point last year.

Still interesting to note that the top two for 360 was Guitar Heroes, which was guaranteed to sell really well considering the high it is in the past couple years, and the other was Crackdown, which no one liked but bought for the Halo 3 beta.

PS3 will get some much needed support in the software side this fall, it will be interesting to see how close PS3 games can be to the top by Christmas.

i think saying people only brought crackdown for the halo 3 beta is rather weak i rented it when i had a 360 and it was a very fun game and i know alot of other people got a kick out of it two.
