The PS3, though has a few good FPS (Resistance and COD4 come to mind) there are probably still a good deal waiting for the one particular FPS game to bring them in. Maybe they don't like modern warfare, or alien invasions, hence Vegas 2 would offer something a little different than that. On the 360 side, I'm sure you could find something for anyone. Basically, I see why the PS3 got a bigger boost. And yes, the Wii still dominates. Please Nintendo, up production! 400k weeks all year would kill the competition. DS only manages to outsell the PSP 1.7:1. Not the dominating 3:1 of the more normal weeks. All those PSP big game releases, without many big games on the DS (that I can think of), along with saturation in Japan are starting to get to the DS. |
The PS2 had an oversaturation of many genres, but it never hurt it. And the PS3 at this moment does not offer an overall dissimilar experience than the 360, so I personally don't think oversaturation of one genre can account for this.
As a counter point to the Vegas 2 issue, Vegas 1 was not a good port for the PS3 and that turned many ppl off. I've heard the situation is similar with Vegas 2, so I can't see this one game being the difference.
