Folklore…..one of the best…… most overrated games probably in the history of games…..The mass media really did not show this game any love. I really truly enjoyed Folklore….it’s story…the setting and the graphics are awesome…..Plus one of the best implementation of the Sixaxis…controls…

Digital games are held to a different sales standard so Flower should probably not be on this list. If it sold 500k it would be considered a very successful game and you put down not a million so it’s over 500k at least. That said, it should be played by every PS3 owner period, bundle a voucher with the system, whatever, it’s one of the most cathartic experiences I have ever had playing a game. Now if they would add Move support it would make it even better.

As far as some of the others, if there were disc releases for games like Siren or Wipeout the sales numbers would be higher since far fewer people will download a game then will buy it on a disc. Since Siren only got a disc release in Japan and it’s not really a small game, a lot of people were willing to pass it by. In addition to that, and this applies to Valkyria Chronicles as well, it came out right around the same time games started implementing trophies and that sort of thing has a dynamic impact on sales. If they would have patched trophies into both of those games, hell if they did it now, there would be a resurgence in sales fr sure.

Ninja Theory can suck it because they are a bunch of whiny bitches. Heavenly Sword sold to about 10% of the install base at the time and that’s pretty incredible for a studio that most people had never heard of. Again, if they would retro patch trophies into it, there would be a resurgence in sales and give it a higher replay value being as short as it is.

Folklore, oh man, I love that game and it (unjustly) deserves the spot it has. I would love to see Sony put in Move support and add trophies, throw it up on the Store for $20, and get enough sales to make another game like it.

It sucks but severalof the games came out at a time when the PS3 was the media’s whipping boy and sales suffered. Good games get the shaft all too often but this gen it seems more prevalent, and it sucks.

0.09 million = 90,000 not 90.

It’s sold that 90 thousand in Japan, in US and EU it was a PSN download, and those sales are not included in the above, so it sold alot better then some think.

Nine Thousand copies. Not ninety, bro.

0.00 = Nothing
0.09 = Nine thousand
0.90 = Nine-hundred thousand
1.00 = One Million

At least I think…

i think it’s hilarious that Heavenly Sword sold close to 1.5 million and Ninja Theory said they were disappointed with its sales. They said that it sold less because of it being exclusive….then they released Enslaved and it hasn’t even hit the 500,000 mark yet.
