@ http://news.spong.com/article/12112?cb=567 Here is a interview with a guy 1st in line to buy the ps3 in the UK. Interesting quotes.
SPOnG: So, what games are you picking up tomorrow?
Ritatsu: Well, they’re giving us Resistance: Fall of Man for free – which is the only thing I really want for the PS3 at the moment.
SPOnG: Motorstorm, Ridge Racer?
Ritatsu: Nah, not so much. I like racing games, but I’m not a hardcore racer. If I have a few quid left over I might consider Motorstorm… we’ll see.
SPOnG: And what of the other launch titles?
Ritatsu: Not interesting me at all.
SPOnG: Mind you, you’ve got a 360 I suppose!
Ritatsu: Yeah exactly, I’ve got most of those games anyway!
SPOnG: What about the built-in Blu-ray – is that something which interests you? Is that a selling point for you?
Ritatsu: Hmm, well. When there’s some decent movies available I’ll maybe start getting interested yeh. So far though, there’s not much to choose from. Casino Royale should be cool, seeing as it’s free.
SPOnG: So, really it’s just the fact that it’s a new PlayStation more than anything?
Ritatsu: Yeah, pretty much yeh…. I’m also waiting for Metal Gear Solid 4, Final Fantasy XIII and, well, I was waiting for Devil May Cry 4 as well but that’s coming out on the 360 as well now, so I’ll probably pick it up on the 360 instead so I can get some achievement points…
As more ps3 exclusives drop to 360, ps3 will continue to lose the interest to buy. this guy is and exception as he owns all 3 and is obviously a hardcore gamer that buys anything. Most people would skip the ps3 when they can get the games they would like anyways on the 360.
