Because a lot of sony fanboys have the following time line for the future of the console wars.
1: Wii is outselling PS3 2 to 1 every month.
2: Something AWESOME happens
3: PS3 is outselling Wii, like, 100 to 1 every month and all the Wiis get confiscated by the government for some reason and everyone is forced to buy a PS3. Everyone.

Now, people are just looking for the Awesome thing to happen to turn the PS3 around and make it a 100 million seller like some people are predicting.

You need to remember this mind set has been going around a while. Remember 'wait until X'? How about 'Once the Wii passes the GameCube/XBox/20 Million it's not going to sell anymore'? Or 'everyone is eventually going to buy HD TVs and have an extra 500$ that they hate and want to get rid of'? Or the old favorite 'Well, PS3 is on a ten year life cycle despite the fact that that makes no sense, so it's going to be outselling the wii when the wii gets replaced by the Wii2 and nintendo sells 100 million of those'? It's kind of like that.

This is ridiculous. People don't think the game is good because they think it'll turn the console wars around. I know the PS3 is going to get its ass handed to it by the Wii. I'm excited for this game because it looks great, not out of some desperate attempt at a console savior.
