Halo 3 will do phenomenally but I think all the people who will get it already own 360s just like I think most the people who want many of the PS3 exclusives already own them. There's no arguing more consoles will be sold, but I don't see the pace of the race changing over games at this point. |
wow really? so what sells consoles? marketing and fads?
not even 1 year into the generation and you are already saying that "games" (which is why we buy the consoles right?) won't change how a system sells?
The wii might be selling phenomonelly now, but there are plenty of games on ps3 and 360 that people will want (halo 3, bioshock, final fantasy, MGS, Ratchet, mass effect...) and what happens a year from now when the casual crowd no longer cares about the wii? All those people who played wiisports and then didn't buy any more games?
I think there are 2 things that sell systems after the inital hype, games and price. Right now the wii has the price, but with a price drop the 360 could be even with the wii (in price) and have many more games. I buy my console for the games, not because a clever slogan or everyone around me told me to.
