Sony's exclusives honestly aren't all that impressive.

Their third party sway from the PS1/2 eras is all but gone.

FF13 is not exclusive I doubt Versus 13 will be either (if it even comes out before 2012 at this rate). FF14 is an online RPG that probably will end up on the 360.

Gran Turismo 5 is the only big exclusive they have left to play worldwide. The Last Guardian, Uncharted 2, etc. stuff is alright, but it's going to be the same deal as Killzone 2 ... lots of hype by Sony fanboys ... not a lot of systems sold in the end.

Face it -- the main reason Sony was able to dominate so strongly in the 1990s and early 2000s was because they had practically every big third party franchise exclusive (Final Fantasy, Devil May Cry, Grand Theft Auto, Metal Gear Solid, etc.) and Nintendo/Sega were way behind in marketing know how back then (not anymore for Nintendo). They were able to take advantage of Microsoft's rookie mistakes too. And they had a head start with the PSOne and PS2 ... none of this is the case any longer.


Nothing but truth in this post.



Bet between Slimbeast and Arius Dion about Wii sales 2009:


If the Wii sells less than 20 million in 2009 (as defined by VGC sales between week ending 3d Jan 2009 to week ending 4th Jan 2010) Slimebeast wins and get to control Arius Dion's sig for 1 month.

If the Wii sells more than 20 million in 2009 (as defined above) Arius Dion wins and gets to control Slimebeast's sig for 1 month.
