Forums - Sony Discussion - Which of the PS3 exclusive titles will Drastically push the PS3 hardware?

I say FF XIII, and Resistance 2 will move the most hardware.



 

 2008 end of year predictions:

PS3: 22M

360: 25M

wii: 40M

Well I know R2 will move SOME hardware because of it's recent boasting rights, but other than that I wouldn't normally consider a sequal to a just recently established franchise a major system mover :P ESP considering it's on the same system, I'd assume that people who already own resistance will buy it in droves, but those people already have PS3's :P



From 0 to KICKASS in .stupid seconds.

MGS4, GT5, FF13, and GoW3 since they are well established franchises with proven mass market appeal. I don't think any one title is going to stand out as some super system seller though. The PS3 should simply start building steam as big games are released rather than suddenly blowing up based on a single game. I think the biggest system seller of the four I picked will be whatever game is released closest to a price drop.



I would say the biggest movers would be GT 5 and FF 13. I just don't see MGS4 the system mover that everyone makes it out to be. The game itself will sell great though.



Does anybody have any new information regarding FF13?

The final fantasy games, but I think they will be coming to Wii very soon once they don't sell on PS3 so well.
Let's just hope that Sony's %30 stake in the company has something to say about that xD, no offense to the Wii, I hope it gets some good SE exclusives and all, but I don't think Final Fantasy is a good platform for the title, FF has always been a series that's way ahead of it's time tech wise, and I don't think that would go over so well on the Wii xD

 


 8%.

 Where do people pull these huge and absolutely rubbish numbers from?



I'm just saying FF will help out the most but may also come to Wii. FF and GT5 should sell very well.




Nintendo still doomed?
Feel free to add me on 3DS or Switch! (PM me if you do ^-^)

GT5 BELOW KZ 2....you gotta be kidding me!!

anyways:

GT5

FF13

MGS4



All hail the KING, Andrespetmonkey

none of the main titles will come to the Wii, but some of the spin offs will come in the future.



Have you ever sen how much increase in PS2 hardware sales did GTA3 or GTA3:SA? =)))

If you expect to see sales going from 150k weekly to 300k weekly for several month because of ONE game, then you are fool.
One game maybe will move aditional 200-300k HW, in next few weeks(800k in month instead of 600k) maybe more, but then it will go to normal, BUT with 5-10k more weekly then before(620-640k per month).
ALL these games will make to go 150k weekly sales to 300k weekly sales for many month.

Did Uncharted make a big boost in PS3 sales? Or Ratchet? or UT3? BUT PS3 still outsold x360 in december 2007. =) That`s because of these games. BUT not ONE game alone.



Every 5 seconds on earth one child dies from hunger...
