Forums - Sony Discussion - Do you believe MGS4 will determine PS3 NA's success or final fate.

So far PS3 has managed to show an amazing run in 2008 in Europe, i m comparing it only with XBOX 360..

So i think MGS4 will determine PS3 america success... as it is the one game which is equally appreciated in America as it is in Europe.. as the previous exclusive GT5:P showed the way for PS3 in europe.. and gave some nice boost to PS3 hardware and software sale that way i think MGS4 will be sort of determining if PS3 is going to be getting a distance between itself and XBOX360.. or is it always going to be neck to neck fight between PS3 and XBOX in NA for the rest of both consoles life.

 

Do you agree.? or do you think MGS4 is not the right game to determine this for PS3.?

I don't think that any one game will determine any systems fate.

Most systems are bought for a catalog of games, not just one.



It certainly won't hurt the PS3.



We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls.  The only thing that really worried me was the ether.  There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke

It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...."  Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson

I don't see this in America specifically, I see some effect in Europe.

It will help the PS3, but the PS3 will never close the gap to the 360 while Microsofts machine is on the market



I hope my 360 doesn't RRoD

I can't imagine that one game would make or break a system, although that might possibly be true for the original Halo on the Xbox.

 I believe he's talking about the NA market.  Not WW, in which he believes that the PS3 will pass the 360.



...

It won't be the sole reason of success, but it'll contribute.



MGS4!

Well....NO

MGS is a bigger franchise in EU

Killzone 2 & RES 2 will be important though
