Really.... I mean really take a step back. This is a harsh picture you are painting. It is 4 months away from NA and japanese release. There is a GDC coming up soon and the worldwide release hasn't even happened yet.
This sense of urgency makes no sense. The calls for how bad the situation "looks" has no real credibility. There are way to many factors involved (including the silence on specs, features and titles) that make the PS3 an unkown factor.
I say just by going on the titles announced already that the PS3 will be fine by the time the heavy hitters are released this year. I have no idea what is going to happen after Sony says what they have to say about the PS3.
Ah, GDC too. Always something to wait for thats going to give the PS3 some big boost. Always the next game, the next month, the next big announcement.
Y'know Nintendo fans are looking forward to GDC and the March/April lineup too, and 360 fans to a lesser extent.
I am REALLY looking forward to what Sony announces about the PSN coming up though (if the rumors are true.) It sounds like they've got a really cool feature they are preparing.
"[Our former customers] are unable to find software which they WANT to play."
"The way to solve this problem lies in how to communicate what kind of games [they CAN play]."
Satoru Iwata, Nintendo President. Only slightly paraphrased.
