starcraft, while i agree that the 360 has some really good exclusives lined up, i have to say that most of these exclusives probably only appeal to a hardcore market. i say this because in '07, the 360 boasted without a doubt, the BEST games. yet the 360's game of the year (bioshock), shifted little over 1.5 million copies. same applies for mass effect. no other system had so many aaa titles in such a small time.
360 will have another good year for games, but the simple fact that sony will also have a good year will overshadow the quality the 360 has. ps3 had no games last year, yet it still sold units. now games like gt5:p (not even a full game) are shifting units like it was the real deal. if a game like bioshock can't push the 360 into a sales frenzy, then what makes you think that fable 2 or ninja gaiden 2 will change that? we all know the effect gears 2 will have, but banjo kazooie has not been on a system since n64, and i'm guessing the majority fans of that game have a wii, so you can't really count that as a proven franchise, when it's been dorment since god knows when, things have changed.
the ONLY game i can say that will SHIFT consoles is gears 2. the rest are really good games, but are not really system sellers.
