binary solo said: Why do people think NATAL will bring any significant boost to sales? Especially a boost to further the 360 lead over PS3? The PS3 and 360 motion controls, while technologically different, will to all intents and purposes be functionally identical. Because it will be a niche product for both 360 and PS3 at least until 720 and PS4 come fully integrated the best profitability for 3rd parties will be to develop multiplat titles. I wouldn't be surprised to know that Sony and MS colluded to a limited extent to ensure their respective motion capture technologies were sufficiently compatible to allow for multiplat 3rd party games. MS already knew that Sony would base it's technology around the PSeye.
Neither 360 nor PS3 motion capture will be game breakers this gen. MS ain't gonna sell 30 million NATALs to existing 360 owners. Nintendo have already sold 50 million wiimotes, but they aren't gonna sell 50 million motion+s to existing Wii owners. Sony haven't sold 22 million PSeyes yet, and they won't after the wand is released. |
Because Microsoft will market and hype the living heck out of it to soccer moms, gradparents,.....that is something Sony just can't match.
I am sorry, but with the protential of the 3 Triple Threat blockbusters in NATAL, GeOW3, and Halo Reach....what can Sony counter with?

God Of war 3, Gran turismo 5, Killzone 2 (since we are talking of unannounced games), twisted metal, etc etc.
in terms for exclusive ps3 have quality and quantity, having tons of good studios helps.
there is always going to be games for it consoles :).

Yes We all know that GT5 is Sony's endgame....And God Of War 3 should be fantastic
But KillZone 2?
First of all the game is already and has yet to sell 1 mill copies in a single region...And i'm sure your gonna hit me with the Quality stint....But the fact is that only a niche part of PS3 owners are playing these big Sony exclusive....
Infact.....For PS3 exclusive in NA only one game sold over a mill at retail with out bundles.....
Sony has alot more than console sales to worry about when it comes to the PS3...And saying that the games have quality when the sales are what they are...is worst than having bad games that sell badly....

Actually, in the past 18 months... PS3 has had more sales on quality (80+ rating) exclusive games than the 360 has.
AND PS3 has had a better attach rate. So i dont think they should be worrying too much about the software side of things.
