Exactly. Claiming that a game like Lair or Heavenly Sword (played the demo, left very unimpressed) is going to move PS3s is akin to a 360 owner claiming Bioshock or Mass Effect are going to move 360s. While the games might have decent sales (I think Mass Effect will probably do the best out of the four listed) and may make money for their respective developers, those games are not system movers. They're just not, plain and simple.
Games like those are what pad a console's sales and back up gamers' collections beyond the blockbusters like Halo, MGS, FF, etc. They're the type of games that turn a mediocre library (Xbox) into a fantastic library (PS2).Â
