Once the system passes 40 games at retail it should actually start having greatly improved numbers. Before Ken leaves I believe that the PS3 will turn around.. June is a while off yet.

Only semi worthwhile games coming out in the next 2 months are Spiderman 3, Heavenly Sword, & LAIR. While I suspect there will be small spikes around these games releases, I don't think they're major system sellers. And SM3 isn't even exclusive. Some of the more popular game series in Japan haven't been able to make a lasting effect on system sales. PS3 will keep having lackluster sales up until the holiday season where I suspect it will sell respectable numbers.

your calling Lair small.. damn dude..the game looks amazing... Heavenly Sword = PS3 God of War and Spiderman 3 has some really nice exclusive content just for the PS3 (collecters edition only though like the exclusive stuff on the other consoles)

 

oh and the home beta starts soon so we should be getting some great new information on that to make people excited.

You are SO blind.

Lair = SMALL!  Smaller than small.

You're one point to argue for that game is that is looks good, it has awesome graphics.

I don't care what anyone says, that game is not a system seller, people with PS3's will buy it for sure, but it aint a system seller, it doesn't appeal to anyone by dragon loving medieval fans which cuts down the viable market for that game more and more.

It's not a system seller, and it's not as big as you'd like to make out that it is.

Is it even due this quarter?

Heavenly Sword, may be PS3's God of War, we'll see on that one I think that game has good potential.
