| DOATS1 said: 360 had/has the better line up last year compared to ps3 by far, yet it didn't KILL the ps3 off. this year, the lineup is more even with, in my opinion, 360 having the edge this year after hearing of gears 2 for this year. my opinion is that ps3 has enough games this year to still outsell the 360 for the bulk of this year. |
Exactly.
Microsoft had strong nukes they dropped off in 2007. Many of which were expected and unexpected succeses.
It did kickstart in 2006 however with Dead Rising and an unexpected killer known as Gears of War.
I thought that by the time that Halo 3 would get around the PS3 would get obliterated considering the hype. Apparently it didnt happen but left a budge in the american PS reputation as a huge majority of US gamers boarded the Xbox 360 ownership.
Before that, there was Forza 2, Bioshock, Crackdown & lost Planet all of which contributed somewhat to the 360's arsenal against the PS3.
The effect is felt in the US, but not too much in the European Territory nor Japan.
Considering that this time the PS3 has some expected and potentially unexpected future succeses this year, then its quite possible for the PS3 to execute an equally succesfull (or better) year than the 360's 2007.
But still remains in the unclear though. Hopefully we will see more of interesting events unfold throughout 2008 to determine whose got the advantage.
