We know Sony will be releasing there Ace in the hole in the Form of Killzone 2 in Feb of 09. That game like all the big exclusives that were released has huge Hype and protential that might help the PS3 turn the tide against the X360.
No doubt Killzone will have the quality in Graphics, gameplay, and online to be one of the best FPS ever. I am very much looking forward to it. But looking at the releases from the PS3 in Jan - April, this is the only exclusives that is coming out at that time; At least in NA and/or Europe.
X360 has 4 exclusive games that already been comfirmed to be release in Q1.

1. Ninja Blade on 1/29 Japan and 2/3 in NA.
2. Halo Wars 3/3
3. Star Ocean will be released in March as well
4. GTA4: The Lost and the Damned will be out in Feb.
Do you think these 4 exclusives can fend of the Assault of a big exclusive like Killzone 2 and not loss too much ground in sales to the PS3?
It is a very similar situation with Gears of War 2 and the 4 Sony exclusives that came out this Fall. Gears 2 completely dominated LBP, R2, Motorstorm 2, and SOCOM. Oh, but the 360 also has Fable 2 and L4D to help it out.
