Here's something majorly dead on that Pachter said:
On FFXIII:
"It's a win, not because MS is gonna move boxes, it's because Sony's not gonna move boxes."
He went on to describe how exclusive Japanese content was a major reason for purchase of PS3(Implied: by Americans) and that MGS4 could be the last big Japanese exclusive for either company. He cites RE5 as an example.
It's dead on, imo.
That is the reason why FFXIII is a big deal. It gives 360 owners another reason not to buy a PS3. It's not gonna be a huge console mover for MS, but the move reduces the console moving status of the game in the US, and that's a win for Microsoft.
I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
I don't need your console war.
NO NO, NO NO NO.
