Damn it Avinash, no one in this thread has implied that the PS3 will completely dominate next year. That has happened in other threads but not this one. Don't just assume everyone is a freaking fanboy like yourself. Look at the thread title: "saved from embarrasment". Keep your comments on topic.

There are plenty of PS3 fanboys eating humble pie but there is EVERY JUSTIFIABLE REASON to assume the PS3 will sell better next year.

 Actually people in this thread have commented that these games will fix the "japan problem" for PS3, not going to happen, nor will it result in a permanent boost, but rather short term spikes in sales

Dude, you're a ****ing moron. No one is talking about the PS3 setting the Japan sales a light. We are talking about creating a niche userbase within Japan for PS3 games to sell and will FFXIII create a 20mil userbase? Of course not, but that is not what anyone is saying. All the PS3 needs is 5-7mil hardcore userbase in Japan for their games to get respectable sales in. That's it and FFXIII, Versus XIII will provide that.

PS3 doesn't need to sell more then the Wii to be successful. The 2 systems are so diversly different from one another that only the hardcore idiots on the internet bother to even compare them.

That's why being a casual/core fan is so much better. None of this e-penis bullshit.

It's funny, I enjoyed gaming so much more before I came online in internet forums in the last 2-3 years. Ironic that.
