I dont understand some things in this site, i'll do some more investigation in the forum posts before i have an opinion but from what i've seen so far the place is full of fanboys.

Which is a shame really 'cause the site overall rocks

The thread title says a bumper month for the PS3. Not a PS3 month.

Honestly, even if it had said 'a PS3 month' your comment would still be a worthless hit and run statement.

As a fan of TW, I've been keeping my eye on Viking: Battle for Asgard as it's from the makers of the Total War series. I hope it's not a big disappointment and has a little more depth than Dynasty Warrior.

The interesting feature:

"Epic Battles. Lay the foundations for huge battles featuring hundreds of dynamic NPC warriors. Subtly influence the battle through targeted assassination or wade in to save stricken allies. Become one amongst many and turn the tide in favour of your kinsmen."

I'm interested in seeing how well R6V2 sells. The original managed to sell 340k on the PS3 (excluding European numbers) on a much smaller install base.

Overall I think PS3 sales will remain healthy throughout March. I don't think it will see a huge boost, I think the new titles will only serve to maintain it's current momentum.

Just realised that there are a fair few potentially good hits out this month.

  • Rainbow Six Vegas 2
  • Gran Turismo 5 Prologue (I thought it was being released in April)
  • Battlefield: Bad Company
  • Everybody's Golf: World Tour
  • Condemned 2
  • Viking: Battle for Asgard

Also with others that have been released and a few that could be good or bad, not sure:

  • Army of Two
  • Dynasty Warriors 6
  • Lost: The Video Game
  • Lost Planet: Extreme Condition
  • Fifa Street 3
  • Unreal Tournament III
  • BlackSite
  • Turning Point: Fall of Liberty
  • Sega Superstars Tennis
  • Midnight Club: Los Angeles
So all in all, there are a few games in there that could be pretty good, making it a bumper month for decent PS3 titles in preparation for GTAIV next month.

 I think the bolded titles will move some additional hardware, the rest just doesn't seem like typical PS franchises that would do very well, in Europe at least.

^At the "never the PS3's month" comment; you don't think the PS3 will ever sell more than it does seeing how it sells with no highly anticipated titles yet? And the difference between the PS3 and the Wii is Eu/Others seems to be headed downwards lately, last week was a mere 17 k or so and bear in mind that the Wii has a very heavy arsenal here as far as games go.

for me it's a Wii Month, with Pro Evolution Soccer 08 Wii, No More Heroes, Harvest Moon, Bully, DDR Hotest Party, Fire Emblem X, Sega Super Star Tennis, Worms, Brother in Arms DT...

Yep, good month for Wii. It was about time....

I'll probably be playing FE for the rest of the month (finally here).

Bully gets good reviews, and I need something I can just play for 15 minutes without getting lost in the story etc. Will buy PES and ProEvo as well, very curious about the PES controls. April will see Okami and Mario Kart.

PS3 doesn't have any real troubles in Europe, I only wonder how well GTPrologue will sell. I don't think Europeans like "half" games. R6Vegas will do very well in Europe.
