| twesterm said: To tell you the truth I just see the gap slowly getting bigger and bigger. July's NPD shows what a price cut did for Sony and it appears it wasn't enough. Remember, in July the PS3 got the $100 price *and* you couldn't go a day without hearing about a RRoD (not sure why there were so many RRoD stories last month) yet the 360 still managed to come out on top. At the moment the PS3's heavy hitters appear to swinging a little short (not saying they're bad but not the OMG awesome we had hoped) and the 360 just got done with Bioshock and a price drop, Halo 3 is around the corner, and then it's riding holiday highs until Mass Effect is released and there should be another small surge. I just can't see the PS3 gaining any ground for the rest of the year and I see the gap being too big in 2008. After that, the PS3 will have some incredible titles but the damage will already be done. The system won't fail, far from it, it just won't be the best or even #2. |
Agreed, and now microsoft is now adressing those rrodd issues and once there fixed im sure some people will buy xbox because of it, ps3 i dont see it ever overtaking american untill it actually gets good games out and really lowers the price, and even then i dont see it till 2009/10 at the earliest unless something big happens in 08
Its going to be alot harder for sony to become big this generation, right now they just need to overcome microsoft, and at the current rate, its not going to happen
With regard to Call of Duty 4 having an ultra short single player campaign, I guess it may well have been due to the size limitations of DVD on the XBox 360, one of various limitations multi-platform game designers will have to take into consideration-Mike B

Game trailers-Halo 3 only dissapointed the people who wanted to be dissapointed.
Bet with Harvey Birdman that Lost Odyssey will sell more then Blue dragon did.
