Ha....ha. Id like to say I told you so.

Having a ton of exclusives every year with therefore thin spread marketing per game will lead to sales of each game not giving a proper return on investment. Without proper awareness, blockbusters will be rare and therefore will fade in the memories of the general gaming public within a year.

Thats why MS releases a few exclusives and markets the crap out of them, while releasing new games on lower-risk avenues like XBLA where it doesnt really matter if they flop or not.

It's not marketing hendering these games' sales (well, it is to a certain extent). It's the games themselves. They're great for hardcore gamers, but many of them were made in a way that makes them unnatractive to the typical PS3 userbase. LBP-too kiddy for PS3 userbase. KZ3-too hardcore for PS3 userbase, No competitive offline, No online co-op, etc.
