Quite a few of Sony's titles have pushed hardware (God of War III & Uncharted 2 to name a few). And again, what you think of Sony's 1st party numbers is irrelevant. It's strict and your own (not to mention biased).
Funny you mention Sony having to launch first to beat the competition. If that were the case, Sega wouldn't have lost two gens in a row to them.
Sony's 1st party get the job done, as evidenced by the reception in the industry. Just because you create a mega franchise here or there doesn't mean you'll be on top (before this gen, Nintendo surely understood that). Sony may never again have a franchise as big as GT. In the grand scheme of it all, they probably won't need one either. Together, their 1st party offerings push hardware.

No, neither of them did. Unless you can show that they did, then you are just spewing BS. In fact, In March, the month of GoW3's release, sales of the PS3 were down (for the US,using the NPD's numbers). So, no, what you are saying is completly wrong.

In the month of March, the PS3 went up in the US. Uncharted 2 launch week also saw a spike in PS3 sales. Both games moved hardware.

Sales went down.
September 2009
October 2009
Again, sales went down. If you mention they went up in Novermber, then you'd be forgeting that November is a huge selling month for electronics (amoung other things) and has the biggest shopping day of the year (Black friday). So, no, evidence shows these games are not helping hardware.

Look at my edit. And I find it funny that you're on a sales tracking website yet chose to ignore it's figures/articles. Wiki, seriously? Again, read the edit in my last post.

The NPD numbers are correct from what I've seen (and they link to the source). Not to mention NPD is more reliable than VGChartz due to being a professional research group.
But in reality, your post said absolutly nothing. Why are my numbers wrong. It shows that sales for the PS3 are not helped by software. You provide no evidence to support your claim, so all I can say is your comments are BS.
