In what universe is

inFamous + Killzone 2 + Uncharted 2 + Heavy Rain + MAG >>> GTA4 + MGS4 + GT5:P + Motorstorm 2 + LBP + Resistance 2

GT5 and GoW3 will be very unlikely in 2009, but even if they both make it, it's not perse better (system seller wise) than 2008.

No one is denying that sony's lineup is good, i plan to own (and already own) many of those games. The problem is that all those titles represent a very narrow demographic that sony is fighting MS for, and losing. None of those titles offer anything that will expand their target base, sure they will make money by volume sales, but they will sell primarily to PS3 owners, they will not move a significant amount of PS3s off the shelves. Also, do you honestly think that all those titles in 2009 COMBINED can outsell something as massively appealing as Mario Kart or Wii Fit?

 

I think we have a little miscommunication here.

What I'm saying is that I don't get the massive hype that's given to the PS3's game releases in 2009. It's definitely good, but not by far the second coming of Jesus some people make it to be.
That's why I asked "In what Universe is the 2009 library better than the 2008 one with GTA4 and MGS4. I think sales wise 2008 is by far bigger for Sony than 2009.

2010: Believe: GT5 + FF13 + GoW3
