MGS4 is a blockbuster release (and worth every penny) but can it exclusively (in NA at least) be attributed to why Sony is having such a successful month and is selling systems like hot cakes? Come on, folks, it's the return of BACKWARDS COMPATIBILITY! Sales will continue to soar as long as Sony does 3 things: 1) Release a limited amount of bundles/BC models to have a like-effect on sales as Nintendo's highly successful psychological advertising has managed to move the casual gimmick machine - the "well, might as well get it now because there's no telling when I'll see it in stock again" mentality. 2) Keep the BC model available as a normal SKU or bring out the long rumored emulation for the 40GB SKU (would be good for JP/Others especially). 3) Get aggressive and go for MS's throat - don't allow MS to keep moneyhatting big exclusives and make it more attractive for third-party companies to push their products on the Sony platform. Rebuild the loyalty that existed on the PS2.
All you touch and all you see is all your life will ever be.
