Bolded: Absolutely disagreed. Their has so far been no sci-fi FPS like the Halo games (can say from personal experience with Halo: CE) and neither any sim racer with as realistic physics as GT (can say from personal experience with GT PSP, GT 5 and GT6).

 

Also the rest of your first paragraph also seems off. Xbox also has Gears Of War and Forza and PlayStation also has God Of War and Uncharted as system sellers.

Youre listing multiple games that contribute to selling systems, which is exactly what I said in regards to your last point. None of those games on their own drive system sales but together they do, which is what I said.

A genre can have parity, that is to say many games in that genre. The game itself does NOT have parity because it is unique to the game itself.

 

Still diagreed. I know me and many of my friends who purchased PS3 for GOW: Collection + GOW III. Of course we didn't buy it just for one game, but it was our primary motivator. I would call that as having system-seller ability. I think that is also the case for each one of the franchises I mentioned.

Let us not forget that God Of War III was the first PS3 exclusive to sell over a million units in its first month in the US. It released after GT 5: Prologue.

do you really think outselling a 40 dollar glorified demo really strengthens your point and argument ?

I'm going to say yes it will be, being of the few who played this on the Vita I can say this game is MARVELOUS!!! Ican definitely see this game doing a LBP; won't set the chartz on fire but have that slow burner effect. I know it doesn't hold much water but check the metacritic; 87 with 82 reviews, that's pretty damn good. Now add in better graphics(and the vita version was no slouch) and added content and this could move some consoles(or become a great bundle game)

Rime is much more important to me than tearaway.

Well it also outsold Uncharted 2: Among Thieves' first 3 months of sales, that too in a non-holiday month.
