I'm pretty sure that, as a blind Sony fanboy, you're likely a guilty party... But inFAMOUS has been one of the oft-cited "golden bullets" in the gun that Sony is holding to MS's head this year, in its "superior to everything" exclusive roster. The other rounds are KZ, Heavy Rain, WKC, and GT5. Two and a hald rounds fired in the fanboy hype cannon (WKC is out in Japan, in Sony's biggest market, and didn't make much of a splash), and Sony is still trailing. If the PS3 can't mount an offense when it's allegedly the only player with any weapons to bear, then that's pretty damning.

A decent shooter that can't outsell old product on the competitor, a superhero game that doesn't quite rise above the glut of licensed fare in teh genre, an RPG that didn't even move systems in home turf... All that's left is a racing game and a fairly niche-y adventure. I'm definitely getting Heavy Rain (loved Indigo Prophecy), but I think it's about time the fanboys stopped touting these games as the "big guns". They've failed to impress the populace, and have had an underwhelming (yeah, I said it) impact on the cosole wars.

This post is complete rubbish.

 

1. Japan is not Sonys biggest market.

2. When listing Ps3s golden bullets, you neglected to list Uncharted 2 and possibly God of War III. Both games are bigger than the previous ones you mentioned excluding GT5. You also neglected to list M.A.G and Ratchet and Clank Future 2
