ME outsold every new IP Sony's published except Uncharted, LBP, Resistance and MotorStorm.  And all those games were bundled to hell, and two were mostly pushed due to being launch titles.  If that's "less than impressive" what's that say about Sony's games?  What's that say about Heavy Rain, inFamous, etc?

I do think Sony's been doing well with new IPs, but I'd say they've always done well with new IPs, so in some ways this really isn't 'new'.  I think my favorite period for SCE is still the PSone era, when we got genuinely new IPs and concepts like Parappa, GT, Carnage Heart, Jumping Flash and tons of really unique and interesting games.  These days I think a lot of that pioneering spirit has been lost or shifted, and it correlates to the (relative) fall of their Japan Studio, which is also probably why I'm not so enthusiastic about modern SCE.  That experimental 'spirit' seems to have weirdly transferred to Nintendo actually, with stuff like Elite Beat Agents, electroplankton, Wii Fit, etc.  More oddball, more experimental, even if it doesn't always pan out for them.

I know your probably over this little argument right now, but I'd like to point out that Mass Effect sold 2,241,427 over 144 weeks. Infamous has sold 1,567,150 over 65 weeks. Heavy Rain has sold 1,406,275 over 27 weeks. So making that comparison is kinda ridiculous and ruins your whole 'New Microsoft IP's sell better than new Sony IP's' argument. 

The only thing Microsoft has over Sony when it comes to top selling new IP's is Gears, but now that Uncharted 2 has released, it can at least hope to come close to Gears of War 2 in terms of sales. Gears 2 has sold 5,840,303 in 94 weeks, Uncharted 2 has sold 3,579,385 in 45 weeks. With the little info I have, Uncharted 2 looks to be out pacing Gears in terms of weekly sales after they'd both shared similar time on the market, Gears 2 had a larger opening, but Uncharted 2 is having much better legs. 

Sony also have 9 new IP's that have sold over 1 million copies, Microsoft  has 5. 

Your comments about SCEJ are kinda true, but that really only applies when you overlook PSN. Really, they've released eccentric titles such Echochrome, The Eye of Judgement, Piyotama, LocoRoco, The Last Guy, Trash Panic, Numblast and then you have their retail titles like White Knight Chronicles (with Level 5), Demon's Souls (with From Software) and Siren: Blood Curse. If your referring to Sony in general not offering any unique or interesting games, then I'd point to Little Big Planet, Flower, Heavy Rain, Flow, Noby Noby Boy, Demon's Souls, Afrika, Folklore and EyePet.

You gotta get on the Sony bandwagon man, it's not cool to hate.

I Swear I am always floored by how much Heavy Rain has sold... I was one of those ppl who thought 300k was pushing it.
