I wish people would realize one or two games won't suddenly boost a console sells and pull it out of any kind of slump or whatever. Not saying the PS3 is in a slump, I'm just saying MGS4 isn't suddenly going t oboost sales by 10 million.

Want proof? Look at the Gamecube.


*cough* Halo 3 *cough cough*

Sorry, had to do it. Seriously, though, this game was HUGE. If I remember correctly, the 360 outsold the Wii during the month it was released, so its possible for a game to give a big but temporary boost.

I certainly don't think that MGS4 is gonna sell millions and millions of PS3's alone either. The bundle is gonna do well though, I'd imagine.


 

I never said huge games don't provide sales spikes. Halo 3 did provide a good sales spike but if a few good games can carry a system then Halo 3, Biosock, Mass Effect, and Lost Odyssey should be killing the Wii and PS3.
