I mean it's obvious for crying out loud and because of the user base PS2 has this generation it's most likely that the games on the PS2's top ten chart are going to outsell almost everything on the GC and Xbox.

IF you want, compare Xbox and GC, because it really doesn't make sense comparing Ps2 to any other console.

No, I don't even know if it's broken the 100,000 barrier yet. I'm not surprised though, it is a port of a 2 year old game on the DC, which wasn't very popular on that mind you. The series needs time to make a name for itself, I reckon the sequel will sell bucketloads more though.

And you make a good point. Why even compare something that's so obvious? The PS2 has a userbase around 5-6 times that of the GC. Obviously games will sell better on it. Like he said, a better comparison would be between the GC and Xbox.

Where did someone compare PS2 sales to Gamecube sales? (besides DM's little #1 less than #10 thing)

Well, apart from answering your own question (), there was Duffman.

But I was referring to DM and things in general.

I don't blame people for no buying it. The game can be beat in 5 hours, and replaying the same identical levels=NO FUN. But it's still the best rail shooter around.
