Microsoft is going crazy this gen. Were do they expect to get exclusives from? They have let go of so many studios that were loyal to them or owned buy them that it makes my head spin. In a time when both of Nintendo and Sony are showing that first party is what sets you apart, I don't see were MS is going with this. Maybe I just can't see the genious in this? All I know right now is this is making me nervous for the future on my 360, and the future of Microsofts console buisness.

How have Sony done this?

And I don't mean how do you anticipate Sony will do this.  I mean what titles that have already released have shown that Sony's first party is having a quantifiable effect on saving the PS3?

 

Sony 1st party games that sold over a million

uncharted

Ratchet

Resistance

Motorstorm

Grand Turismo Pro 5

heavenly Sword

Other good and noteable 1st party games

Hot shots gulf

Folklore

Eye judgement

MLB: the show

Sing Star

Ratchet quest for booty

etc.

Sony's games had had one of the biggest effects on the ps3 and to say other wise is foolish

You actually believe anyone of the million sellers (with the possible exception of the GT5 demo in Europe) has ANY real effect on console sales?

As for the last part?  Your post failed dramatically when it reached Folklore.

 

 

 Wow, your 360 propaganda machine is off the chain today.

Sure, sony's first party offerings may not have moved consoles on their own but they no doubt kept the ps3 relevant during its LAG phase which is why the ps3 is alive and thriving better than ever today. If not for Res 1. Ps3 and motorstorm. Launch ps3 owners would have being in a horrific game drought. R1 and MS1 weren't enough but they served as a band aid during the early months.
