I certainly wouldn't but just because I would or wouldn't do something doesn't mean everyone would or wouldn't. Is 3 million sold with such a "weak game selection" unexpected? Yes it is for something with PLAYSTATION stamped on it. It was after all supposed to sell 5 million with a no game selection. Sony projected 6 million sales with the current selection in mind so I would say 3 million is very unexpected. At any rate, since when is the PS3's game selection so weak? Until the recent batch of games failed to move any systems all I've heard from Sony fanboys is how great its game selection was and that was why it was going to beat the Wii in the Spring. Now it's become apparent to everyone that the PS3 hasn't sold despite these games all of a sudden these games are "weak"? At any rate, yes it is dire for a company division that is losing $500 million a quarter to be saddled with another $100-200 million in per quarter losses just to stay in the game. |
I just want to respond about the comment you made about the games that were supposed to come out this spring for PS3. The fact is the games were not "weak" the only game that came out that people were really lokking forward to is Motor storm. I wouldn't consider that to be "weak", but that isn't the problem. The games that were to come this spring got pushed back Lair and Heavenly sword are 2 I am waiting for that were slated for a spring release. I am sure some of these moves are to coincide with a price drop. Sony is in a good position right now a $600 machine with virtualy no good press in a year has sold almost 3.5 million units with "weak" games. just curious though what is a "weak" game with 30 games out and at least 3 of those are great thats a good % Resistance, Virtua Fighter,Motorstorm,Oblivion those are very good games i would say there are alot more weak games on other systems. I think if you were arguing that there not enough games thats fine ,but the quality is there
