Good. Now maybe if S-E is smart they'll see all those other RPGs they have sitting around with the words Dragon and Quest on them and realize there's a Western market for them.

Heh, I tried those Lay's Chicken and Waffle potato chips today at lunch. Not terrible, but not good either. I ate 5 or 6 chips, and threw the rest away. Thankfully, it was only a single-serving bag.

Glad to see both Bravely Default --AND-- Lightning Returns up there! For all the crap people fling at Lightning and FFXIII, they sure still sell well! Very happy! Maybe someone should make Official Topics for them...

Oh! Wait!

It's crazy to see Minecraft still in the top 10 and that's just the 360 version to boot. Nice to see Bravely Default make the cut as well.

So far I can say that Panzer Dragoon Saga is no Final Fantasy 7. That is all.

Tomorrow night I start Panzer Dragoon Saga...the first game I will play start to finish on my Sega Saturn. Can't fucking wait!!

I have it, never played it. Bur Ex-Mrs.Aspro dug it.

How in the hell do you have a game like this and never try it? That's like never trying FF7....

I got my Saturn analog controller yesterday and it blows my mind. It is basically a Dreamcast controller but 4 years earlier for the Saturn. Not only that, but its actually BETTER than the Dreamcast controller that followed it, because it has more buttons and has better triggers, of which this had to have been the original trigger controller? Kind of amazed how great it is.

So the Saturn had a much better analog controller than the N64, and also the great digital pad which is probably the best ever. The system itself is really nice, maybe not quite as powerful as the others in terms of 3D but it feels and looks really well built, even today. I now see why people who had the console loved it and swore by it so much...it really is great. Makes me sad it didn't do better than it did. Such a waste.

Yeah, I;ve always liked the Saturn analog controller. It's under-rated.

Not sure how seriously to take these figures. Capcom already said MH3U sales were a smash hit that's before the game even hit the west. Lego games and anything colourful still sells better on U. If Rayman sold 99k on U that means it did noticibly worse on 360 and PS3.

Yeah, didn't we already get PS/60 Rayman sales released, and it was something abysmal like 48k?

Yep. And because it was so successful they're releasing the game again on Xbox One and PS4. Its basically Ubisoft saying, "we will keep making this game until someone fucking buys it!"

Hell of a business model.

Rayman was never a huge franchise, despite being good quality. And it seems to have actually lost appeal as the game's improved.

Just speaking for myself even, I don't give a fuck about rayman. I can't even get excited enough to play origins or legend yet....idk what it is it just doesn't have the appeal that other mascot franchises do.

Panzer Dragoon Saga is pretty cool, but again its no FF. I would place all the mid to late 90's FF games ahead of it.
I don't even think it's as good as Skies of Arcadia.

It is awesome flying around on a dragon and getting in battles though. If they brought this franchise back it could be amazing today, though you can say that about Phantasy Star and so many other Sega games as well.  Waste of ip's.

Decided to start replaying MGS4 before Ground Zero hits, never got the trophies or anything so I figured why not.
Man this game is still beautiful. Still a top 5 Ps3 title.

Was that the one that was packed in with Nights?  It was pretty sweet but it shoud have had a proper stick instead of just a nub.

Absolute numbers don't really tell the story.  Would have made more sense as percentage of the WiiU instal base

I'm well pissed off at the missed opportunity that is Yoshi's Island 3.  This had the potential to be a wonderful platformer and another great game for the 3DS ... instead they opted to make a game for playschool children only.  Oh well, a little more money saved in these hard times
