Lair I doubt will sell many PS3's but im pretty sure NG will sell a lot of consoles. Not like MGS or FF would but a reasonable amount. Not a lot of people played NG for the Xbox since not that many people owned it so it would be a plus.

i rememeber all those people that used to say that... alot of people did say that  ealier this year.. URNotE you werent here then but you are not the 1st to predict a boost in sales for the ps3... but like i said before i think lair will give sales a little boost i dont think july is gonna be a 130,000 month for the ps3 but you never know

hahaha U-R-Not-E  thats the old playstation slogan isnt it?? hahaha i rememeber that... the ps underground slogan if i rememeber correctly

Lair will be a huge hit in Japan.. the Japanese love dragons.. Lair is about dragons... dragons + japan = huge underminded market.

i havent been around for that long but the bottom line is you or me dont really know... lets just wait and see... and im not any of those guys you mentioned... i just think it will see a sales boost and not domintate ... like you claim i am saying

He didnt claim YOU were saying anything, he was rebutting Larry

I don't even have a PS3 and still thought it would push at least 200k in March in the US, I was stunned when it was only 130k for a 5-week period.

nope, atleast not much. it`s neede 10 games like NGS and Lair to boost sales. and this will happen only in autumn. :)

I'm thinking the ps3 is screwed for 2007 they need established franchises to help them. All their exclusives are risky, even their knock off franchises don't do amazing. Lair looks great, but I don't see it doing amazing anywhere, I just don't think it will have mass appeal, you pretty much have to like fantasy games and flying games, and flying games in general are more or less a niche market, very few are BIG. Heavenly Sword looks great, but how good is it? it looks pretty much like a insane fighting game, like Genji or Ninty Nine nights, both reviewed poorly as they were viewed as hack and slash games, if it can escape that fate it should prove to do better, but I don't see those games selling huge, even Jade Empire which offered so much more in the the asian style fighting games and reviewed insanely well was somewhat of a dissapointment in the sales department.

 Basically they seemed to have lost MGS and FF to 2008 which means they have to convice people their new games are better then Mario and company on one side, and Halo on the other side. Let's face it Nintendo and Microsoft are bringing the lead cheerleaders to the prom, and Sony has that new foreign exchange student.

Well, that analogy does nothing for me, cause I love exotic ;)

But, yes, the PS3's holiday season went from being packed (FFXIII and MGS4) to being much less packed. No major franchise has been released yet, and no surprise/expected hits are available now (unless you count Motorstorm, but it certainly didn't help the hardware numbers much).

Heavenly Sword, LAIR, Home, and LittleBigPlanet will have to do amazing things this fall and holiday season for the PS3, or the gap will continue to grow.

 I know the LBP beta is scheduled for later this year where we will get to beta the game and create stages and submit them to sony and the developer (the best 300 are supposed to make it into the retail release) but since when is LBP actually going gold this year? Last I checked we get the playable beta this holiday season and the release in 2008.
