Of course.Exclusive games will be the success of the future. Right now the in dustry is trending to release only multiplats and ports for the easy cash.
So i think the only way to seperate each console are the exclusive games and the price for each console.
And of course the technical aspect. I would rather spend 100 or 200 Dollars more for the advanced console before i buy a console which is outdatet after a year or two.
And the PS3 was really lazy the first years. I mean Motorstorm and Resistance are funny games but not really system sellers. For Sony it will be important to release games like God of War, Uncharted 4, Gran Turismo, Killzone 4 in the first 2 years. Thats when they will have the biggest impact.
