NO! Firstly, Alan Wake, Halo Wars and maybe Splinter Cell have been pushed back into 2009. That's a pretty big blow to the 360's lineup.
Secondly, the PS3 has a lot of heavy-hitters- if 1 or 2 of them get pushed into next year, that doesn't necessarily stop 2008 from being the PS3's year. How can you expect all of it's big games to arrive in 1 year?
Also, you missed out Tekken 6, SOCOM: Confrontation and Motorstorm 2 along with lower-tier games such as Wipeout HD, Haze, Siren, Linger in Shadows, Disgaea 3 and Valkyria Chronicles. 8 Days and WKC could still arrive this year.
Anyway, we should wait until E3 is over before we start talking about this.

WHOA!!!! When did Halo Wars get pushed back? You just included things like PSN games, online-only games and sequels to mediocre launch titles in your so-called heavy-hitter line-up. Tekken 6 will be big, but lets not pretend the franchise has the quality or sales luster it used too. Disgaea and Valkyria chronicles wont hold a candle to Infinite Undiscovery, Tales of Vesperia and Lost Odyssey. |
Halo Wars wasn't shown at MS's event last week and it's probably been delayed to 2009 along with Alan Wait: http://www.gamefocus.ca/forums/viewtopic.php?p=1969 SOCOM is online-only but it has a huge fanbase, nearly every PS3 owner I speak to is hyping this. Could be a system seller. And Motorstorm is hardly mediocre, it got 83% at GameRankings and is the biggest selling PS3 game (after GTA4 I think). As for Tekken 6- IT WILL KICK ASS! I think Tekken 5 is the best yet, number 6 is a "heavy-hitter" as far as I'm concerned. Do not speak ill of Tekken!!!!!  As for the bolded part- I can't argue because I don't really know much about any of them. But I don't know why you think Disgaea 3 and V.C."won't hold a candle" to the other 3. |
You say SOCOM will be a system seller because people that own PS3's are highly anticipating it? Doesn't that mean it will sell to the existing fanbase!? Also Motorstorm should be a big seller after being bundled with the PS3 for so long. |
Heh, I did say that, what a silly blunder. But really, I think a lot of the SOCOM fanbase will buy a PS3 when this new one is released, the PS2 versions are still being played online to this day.
As for Motorstorm- yes it was bundled, but hasn't it sold over 3 million? I see the sequel being very successful indeed.
