PS3 Exclusives Will Continue To Leave The Competition In The Dust

[CAL4M1TY]

Sadly if what the author said is true, it's the best exclusives that drive hardware sales, by the end of 2007 it would have been:

1) 360
2) PS3
3) Wii

With 2008 and 2009 being the time PS3 makes it's move on the 360. In reality, 2007 didn't look like that in the end and just under half way through 2009 the PS3 isn't making a move on the 360.

Also it takes a certain kind of exclusive. MGS4 didn't cause the PS3 to blow the 360 out of the water for long periods of time, ditto KZ2, R2, Uncharted etc

What it takes is a massively popular franchise with a wide fanbase. A Halo, a Final Fantasy (these days), a Gran Turismo, a Super Mario etc.

With the exclusives the author says would drive PS3 sales, only Gran Turismo looks the part, all the others are either blind labelling just because they are exclusives or they have false hope.

The last bolded part is actually funny, given that by pushing "cutting edge" but expensive hardware to get these "awesome" games, Sony has definitely widen the gap, Nintendo's Wii is making the gap larger every week.

Still, as a PS3 owner, I'm okay with it. I'm getting awesome games after all.
