Why do people keep claiming MGS4 is PS3's saviour?

Furthermore, the point of the thread was not to single out people, but to single out the ridicules idea that MGS4 will make a drastic, permanent change in PS3 sales.

Euhm okay :). But the sales of the PS3 has already changed the last year dramatically. Search how much the PS3 sold like a year ago and how much it sells now;.

I searched it for you.

One year ago the PS3 sold weekly around 60K.


Now we see weekly sales of 150k...

I believe in my original post I said it had large change from last year. I also said that was not do to a single game, but that it was due to a combination of many things.

I also said it will not see anywhere near that same change next year as it is not having the same combination of changes in 2008 as it did in 2007 and MGS4 will not drive those up like some people claim.
