The problem is though you think it is an amazing line-up, does the guy on the street think so? I just cannot see KillZone 2 selling many consoles. 2008 was far better line up of games for the PS3 and it had next to no effect. Games like MGS4,LBP,Resistance 2,GTA4/COD5,GH4 etc.. etc.. there have been loads of high profile games for the system and as much as the fanboys now try and hype KZ2 it will not come near to those games sale figures. The other thing is i have seen the game being played in person at last years E3 and practicaly everyone who watched it with me agreed it looks like a COD4 clone, doesnt actually add anything and is very bland looking. We have seen it time and time again where a game gets hyped by people and then it gets released and gets savaged (Lair/Haze/Heavenly Sword etc.. etc..), then they move onto the next one to hype up. Games such as GOW3 and GT5 i bet will not even be out in 2009, they are miles away from release. I think 2009 for Sony will be the same as 2008 for Sony. The people on games forums talking the talk but people in the street not bothering to walk the walk.
