Forums - Sony Discussion - Sony Admits Game Releases have been slow

Our big bangs will be arriving around September and October; Phil [Harrison] will be announcing these at a later date, but they will probably be in the arena of social gaming as well as more traditional games...

 

About time they admit something

I think it's crazy that they see the success of social gaming on the Wii and try to get something out to cover for that... it's ludicrous because the console is too expensive to entice casual or social gamers!

Get Lair out the door, whip Factor5 if you have to.



DonWii on 08 June 2007

Yeah. About time.

The last thing they admited was that they did not have enough console available immidiately after NA/JP launch...

I wonder how many of Sony's games will actually make the 2007 date. Waiting for Min-E3.

I agree.

So the PS3 really won't sell 5M without games, go figure.

"saying that PS3 is selling faster than both PS2 and PSOne"

Haha! Ignoring circumstances and all...

Just remember if you start rushing games when your console is falling behind you get the Sunshine/Windwaker effect. ;)



Nobody is crazy enough to accuse me of being sane.

I thought that they were good games.  They seemed to be pretty thought out, and not rushed to me.

Kutagari said that the first five million will buy it, whatever it is, regardless of whether or not it has games.  Even at $600, I would have been inclined to agree with him simply because the playstation name was so powerful.  I can't believe how quickly it was tarnished with everything that went wrong with the PS3 (from the very-late announced delays to the execution and PR everywhere else).
