With the number of exclusive games coming to PS3 this fall and holidays there will be big exclusives across a lot of genres that will attract people to buy the console. The games sell the console first and foremost not the services that are there to satisfy customers that already bought the system. Also, Killzone 2 is not done, Ratchet and Clank I think looks better than almost anything on 360 and Uncharted looks as good as almost anything on 360. Sony's first and second parties are churning out big games and now that the drought of games over the first half a year or so after launch is over I expect PS3 exclusives to keep coming that will convince people to buy the console. These: Heavenly Sword Unreal Tournament 3 Haze Ratchet and Clank Uncharted Eye of Judgment Gran Turismo HD Warhawk Lair Singstar Socom: Confrontation LittleBigPlanet Wipeout HD Are the PS3 exclusives for the rest of the year and that's a good variety: 2 racers, 4 shooters, 3 action games, 1 platformer, 1 card battle game, 1 karaoke game, 1 platformer/level creator. |
Say hello to the new argument, same as the old argument. Every console fanboy can list their games, pretend that they'll all be great, pretend that none will flop the way good games sometimes do, and pretend that people will actually put down hundreds of dollars to play those games. Until these games actually hit, actually get good reviews, and actually convince people to pay $560 (or is it $660) to play them, it is a very weak argument.
