Team Ico games, Folklore, G3, NGS, GoW3, MS2, R&C, 8 days, Factor 5 - Turricane, Wardevil and so on. It`s not about LIST, x360, Wii also will have good games, my POINT - that true GAMER won`t ignore such amazing exclusive PS3 games. And another POINT - if KZ2 really will look almost like e3 2k5 render (haze already looking good), then PRICE won`t matter at all. Just like people go to moovie-theater, to see AMAZING visuals, they will pay money, just to play game with AMAZING visuals. Till then, NO GAMES - NO SALES, SIMPLE. =] |
I just have to respond to this. First off, stop using acronyms to refer to games nobody has ever heard of like LBP or MS2. You can counter that list with a list of Wii games pretty easily: Mario Galaxy, Metroid Prime 3, Smash Bros., Mario and Sonic, NiGHTS: Journey of Dreams, Animal Crossing, Battalion Wars 2, Disaster: Day of Crisis, Final Fantasy Crystal Bearers, Dragon Quest Swords, Fire Emblem, No More Heroes, Project H.A.M.M.E.R., RE: Umbrella Chronicles, Soul Calibur Legends, Sadness, Sword of Legendia, and a version of Manhunt 2 which is far better than the PS2 version(oh, and take note of how I avoided acronyms). As for the 360, well I won't even go into that. The games in addition to the ports are worth buying a PS3 for no doubt. I would probably buy FFXIII, MGS4, Lair, Ninja Gaiden Sigma, and anything by Team Ico. Counting non-exclusives I would definitely get RE5, DMC4, GTAIV, and Assassin's Creed. I know I definitely would have paid $400 for that IF I knew that the PS3 was doing well enough to where it would have continued to make those products. I'm sure a huge amount of people would have done the same. In fact, I have little doubt the PS3 would be destroying the competition if it was $400, but paying $600 for a 3rd place system when I can get the other two for the same price is ridiculous. So your statement "JUST WHEN PEOPLE WILL UNDERSTAND, THAT ONLY GAMES MATTERS!? =) NOT A PRICE! =) People will pay ANY price, just to play" isn't true. It's not what I would do and apparently not what a heck of a lot of other people would do.
Oh, and your statement that no games = no sales isn't true either. PS2 sold amazingly well despite launching with almost nothing. Why didn't the PS3 do the same thing? Simple. $599 U.S. dollars.
