I still don't see how anyone still thinks PS3 will catch up. How many "savior" games need to come and go before everyone realizes that the PS3 is never going to blow up to the point it will catch 360? Lair, Warhawk, GT5:Prologue, Ratchet, Uncharted, DMC4 and GTA IV on their "original homes", Metal Gear, Little Big Planet, etc. etc. have all been the "key" to getting sales going.

With the exception of MGS4, none have really made an impact.

Maybe Final Fantasy AND Gran Turismo 5 make an impact, but now that 360 has FFXIII, it's not a big deal. Japan won't make up those numbers.

They are almost behind as much in North America as they have sold TOTAL in their best territory. Sony screwed it up. They have the best hardware, easily. But they are learning that, like last gen, when Xbox was arguably the best hardware, that this means nada.

 

The probelm is Sony 1st party can't make enough games for PS3 to be self-sufficient. If they somehow had Rare all gen, and Sony Japan actaully did something other than make Loco Roco and Patapon, they would be absoulty fine in terms of games. In terms of PS3 vs Xbox though, PS3's current library> Xbox's enrie library.
