Metal Gear Solid 4 is old now and the only proven IP he mentioned besides that is God of War and Gran Turismo and they are not comming out for a long time . Resistance is about a 2 million seller, nothing massive. Xbox has Gears 2, Fable 2, Halo Wars on the horizon.

I disagree with you because sales of PS3 games prove they're more important than you make them out to be. Resistance: Fall of Man to date has sold 2.95 million copies, which is 350,000 copies more than the original Fable did to date when Fable was released 2 years earlier. I think you're overestimating both the sales boosts for Fable 2 and Gears 2. Gears of War sold alot of games, at 5.28 million, but that's at about 2 years, and Metal Gear Solid 4 has already sold closing on half that in a little over a month.

 

And? MGS was pretty front loaded. Getting over 5 Million is only possible if Sony continues to pack it in for quite some time.

 

 

MGS4 will probably see a boost this holiday as well
