STAGE you're a moron.

Halo Reach is not going to push systems. There have already been 3 Halo games on the 360. Reach will not, NOT push 360 sales. It will sell quite a few million copies of software though.

God of War III is the first PS3 God of War game. The Collection is just remastered PS2 games that will pretty much only sell to the diehard GoW fans. God of War III has a very good shot at being a system seller.

While ODST is an expansion pack. It is also a full game. Campaign and multiplayer.

Sony has a much strong 2010 line up than Microsoft and Nintendo. Hands down.

 

I am not like the people around here. I believe in giving second chances because the rules around here can be a bit stringent. Call me a name again and I will have you banned. You need to learn to control your emotions.

1. Which one of those three Halo games you mentioned sold consoles? Was it not the main storyline of the franchise in a full game and not a side story or a unfinished product? Halo Reach will be the second main story franchise of the new gen for the Xbox 360. The other  two were side stories.

2. I don't care if God of War was the 8th god of war on PS3, it will not sell as well as you hope. The only people who care about God of War as always have been people who already owned consoles. God of War hasn't sold as stellar as you candy coat it for such a "heavy hitter".

3. ODST may have been publicized and sold as a full game, but I know better. The ballad of Gay Tony is a expansion and it has more hours of storyline in it than that game. You pay $40 for both 'The Ballad of Gay Tony' and 'Lost and Damned' whic equates to nearly 20 hours of gameplay in both games combined. As I said, I know better. The multiplayer made the difference, because  the majority of people paying full price for six hours of campaign no matter how good it is. It's lucky it had the name Halo on it or else it wouldn't have achieved those sales.

4. Nintendo doesn't have much of a lineup, but seriously, but Xbox 360 and the PS3 will both have great lineups. I don't care what you think in your little subjective mind. Microsoft has bigger sales potential for their titles.

Sonys Lineup potentially AAA 2010: FFXIII Versus, Heavy Rain, GT5, M.A.G. (if it does launch in 2010), God of War 3. The Last Guardian, Modnation racers, ape escape hd and agent

Microsoft Lineup potentially AAA 2010: Halo Reach, Fable III,  Mass Effect 2,  Alan Wake, Splinter Cell: Conviction, MECHWARRIOR, Crackdown 2.

Microsoft has seven AAA titles plus the unannounced titles from Rare which they haven't unveiled yet. Sony has 6.

 

Probably some other for Ms as well.Alot of new ip's on there so hard to tell if they will be AAA. The Fable, mechwarrior and crackdown franchises have never reaced 90+ metascore before, so will be interesting to see. Only the first spliner cell ranked AAA if i recall correctly. Mass effect 2, Alan wake, splinter cell conviction are not exclusive according to vgcharts rules. Dont know about Mechwarrior is it coming for the pc?

 

     Actually, we don't know what games are coming to the PS3.  We know that Yakuza should be added to this list, but as a result of FF, then, GT5, then FF Versus XIII, and FFXIV exclusivity at least in Japan combined edging the PS3 close to 10 million consoles sold there while the 360 will have to have a miracle to ever hit 2 million there, you will see at least 5 to 10 Japanese PS3  exclusives released in the West every year for the rest of the gen starting in 2010.
