Forums - Sony Discussion - PS3's 2008 holiday exclusives launch schedule all garbled...

Around the middle of 2008 when Sony tentative holiday schedule was released, it looked ideal..

With SOCOM launching in September,

Motorstorm & LBP in October

Resistance 2 in November

it looked like a perfect ramp up for the holidays...

But first MS punctured Sony's momentum by giving a very nice and big price drop..

then SOCOM pushed in October, LBP delayed

and now it look like all major exclusives are going to launch one after the other in around 3 weeks time....

 

I think ideal condition would have been to release each exclusive with around 2 to 3 weeks time... starting from mid September till mid November.

Sure Sony couldn't have done anything ... look like they are a bit unlucky this generation.

Perhaps this has been Sony's plan all along....mmmwwha ha ha. Seriously though.....things happen. They still have a great holiday lineup and should do well.



I think it's ok as it is now. Don't forget that everybody's not gonna buy LBP and R2 and M2 and Socom and Wipeout HD.

And no matter what, all these titles will be available late november, that's the important thing. If two of those games had been delayed for early 2009, that would have been a problem.



whahaha maybe not al but i have wipeout hd and getting ms2 r2 lbp and socom.



or you are just wishfully hoping that all these games close to eachother means they will fail.

LBP, R2 and MS PR are all coming out within a few weeks, which I dont think is a particularly good idea



@munkeh111

it allows for building up momentum in those weeks + then huge ADS & legs for those games for rest of the holidays

considering the OP made a thread titled "gran Turismo 5 Prologue BOMBED"....I think this is just a pure Ps3 bashing thread in disguise.



All hail the KING, Andrespetmonkey

Does it matter?

LBP will be B3YOND huge at some point of time.




just get them all...oh..btw...you're not including the BIG multi-plats, like Fall-out 3...zionks!
