Would "Alan Wake" Have Sold Better on the PlayStation 3?

No. Commercial flop, yes. Quality game? without a doubt. And I don't care about "opinions"

Commercial flop? How can a game be a commercial flop when its FULL OF INGAME COMMERCIALS AND ADS?

For those saying Alan Wake sold bad, Alan Wake did as well as most PS3 exclusives. So that's a dumb statement.

Thats not a very good way of looking at it. The Xbox 360 has something like 40 million units, that doesnt mean every game will sell well. For example Metro 2033 and Crackdown 2 didnt exactly explode like the Halo or Gears games.

Alan Wake as far as i know hasnt reached 1 million units sold yet, most PS3 exclusives get more than that. But in my opinion i think Alan Wake is the Infamous of the Xbox 360 in that it will take a while to pass a million but it will eventually. You could also argue that MS didnt give enough advertisement to Alan Wake, i certainly didnt see anything on TV for it. I think i got more advertising for Alan Wake from the likes of Jgear4 from youtube.

I did find some humour though that 360 fanboys said PS3 fanboys dont buy their games and then they let Alan Wake fall flat on its face compared to other 360 exclusives.
