| revovichfan12 said: I think PS3 will do better this year partly because of the price drop thats coming for it and because there are SO MANY people that want a PS3 but can't afford one and the economy last fall had a MAJOR factor into that decision to buy one or not. They probably went with something else because of price. Now, with the economy do a little bit better at the moment then a couple months ago and signs pointing more up than down, there's probably going to be a VERY large PS3 purchase this holiday. Sony knows that, and they have the gamelineup to support it 120%. Ratchet & Clank Future 2 MAG Uncharted 2 And all of the other games that arent exclusive to PS3, but are available (MW2, Bioshock 2, etc.) Plus. Sony's Spring looks VERY strong with the release of God of War 3, Gran Turismo 5, Heavy Rain, Final Fantasy XIV, Modnation Racers just to name the EXCLUSIVES |
MAG is retarded and Ratchet & Clank while extremely fun are not going to budge system numbers... God of War isn't going to do much either it's a Sony franchise and it will sell mostly to those who already own the system... GT5 will bring some PS2 hold overs for sure and FF14 is a joke at best... Square better be on their A game if they want that game to not choke and die when Old Republic gets released(not to mention it'll find it's way to the 360 without a doubt... you don't start your talks about an MMO on how to limit your customer base). The only think that can help Sony is if they drop the price 100 bucks around Sept. or Oct. though I think 50 dollars would be better for them financially. I don't think Microsoft would respond to a 50 dollar price drop and they would see a nice bump in numbers.
