    Status: offline     		not at all, yet for some reason numbers from a site that spells charts as chartz
    (its not clever its stupid) gets approved about 4 times a week
    these are at least more legit numbers to argue about

    Generally the ps2 was the weakest of the 3 consoles but developers put a lot of effort into making sure the ps2 never got a lame port. They managed this by mostly leading on the ps2 and porting to gamecube or 360. Why because they knew majority of the ppl purchasing their games would be ps2 owners.

    PS3 with it being hard to develop and all really needs to surpass the X360 in order for developers to start to lead on the PS3 and thus eliminating the issue of lame ports on the PS3. So yea sales matter.

    Maybe when both are selling well, both can get full quality games?  Pft, I wish...
