TheRipDizz said:It doesn't quite work out in the PS3's favor like that though. For example, when the original Xbox commanded like 15-17% of the market, it routinely put up respectable numbers on multiplatform games compared to the PS2. Consoles with smaller userbases can usually make up some of that difference because that userbase is generally core users and enthusiastic. The PS3 doesn't even seem to enjoy that advantage.
But it does, at least in some cases. Microsoft's own press release states that Assassin's Creed and Guitar Hero III 360 versions outsold the PS3 versions by about 2:1. Since their userbase advantage is 3:1, that means attach rate for these games was better on the PS3. On the other hand, Rock Band attached to PS3 only mildly stronger than on 360, and COD4 sold to almost exactly the same percentage of both console bases.
