If the big 3 could only make new IPs from now on who would have the best exclusives? who would sell more?

Then he misunderstood me, because I never implied anything even remotely like that.

From the sounds of it you implied Sony can sell millions of consoles without a massive hit. Which is entirely incorrect. Name one console they've sold that didn't have some kind of huge seller on it? The PS3 was sluggish until a price drop and games like Uncharted started coming onto it attracting gamers. Same with Little Big Planet. The PS2 sold really well, but it also had a huge number of hit games released that boosted its sales. The PS1 was similar. Final fantasy was a big seller as well as GT and Crash Bandicoot and Metal Gear. Add in various JRPGS and bam. The PSP sold well due to Monster Hunter and a few other Japanese hits.

You need to go argue with the guy who started this, then, as he was saying Sony has nothing that comes close to 20M sales and thus doesn't have any massive hits.

Oh alright. I wasn't sure where the argument originated from. I say 5m+ are pretty good numbers for new IPs. Especially considering what the PS3 had sold when those titles came out. Whether something is a hit or not should be based on how many copies sold as well as what the console install base is.
