So Microsoft's expansion pack and Forza 3 are that much better than Uncharted 2 and Ratchet and Clank?
Please don't drag in 3rd party games like their 1st party, that's something I can't stand

They have much more sales potential, which is the point of why people think it's bad to have GT5 fall out of the holiday season. So in that respect, yes an expansion pack and Forza 3 are MUCH, MUCH, MUCH better than Uncharted 2 and Ratchet & Clank.

You do know that R&C games sell well, right? And if I'm not mistaken, pre-orders are the same for Uncharted 2 and FM3. Halo 3: ODST of course is selling like hot cakes, but do you think it'll move systems? I doubt it, given that most of the people buying it are Halo 3 owners. And Demon's Souls pre-orders are picking up, too. Furthermore, FFXIII bundle will sell like crazy in Japan. And then there's also the GoW 1 & 2 collection re-release. That is a great line-up. Left 4 Dead 2, I don't know how that will sell.
Rockstar: Announce Bully 2 already and make gamers proud!
Kojima: Come out with Project S already!
Just buy a $199 Wii and enjoy NSBWii like the other 10,000,000 gamers that will be before GT5 comes out ;-P

Bill Gates had Mac prototypes to work from, and he was known to be obsessed with trying to make Windows as good as SAND (Steve's Amazing New Device), as a Microsoft exec named it. It was the Mac that Microsoft took for its blueprint on how to make a GUI.

Sony is a funny company, they always do the opposite of what its fans want, they are a masters of it.
I love Uncharted as much as the next person, but I hope they don't think it can compete with the big boys sales wise.

I'm aware that R&C sells well compared to most titles, but is clearly not in the league of Uncharted 2, Forza 3 and Halo 3 ODST. Regarding Forza and Uncharted, I believe Forza will be bundled in certain regions, including Europe, so I frankly don't see Uncharted catching up. When we put the four up to each other, it's clear which set is the winner. This is why Sony could have used GT5 this fall.
Regarding the rest and system sellers, I'm just going to repeat what you originally said "Please don't drag in 3rd party games like their 1st party, that's something I can't stand" and leave it at that.

Oh well. It looks like the biggest video game spring ever.
Go Team Venture! I still don't get the Wii, PS Move, and Kinect.

I don't think Nintendo does any better in that regard, and frankly Microsoft may just be lucky that the two studios that provide them with the best selling games also happen to be the best at keeping a schedule(Bungie/Epic). Sony has their two teams(Naughty Dog/Insomniac), however they just aren't creating as appealing games to that fanbase.

One thing, I really don't know what's the appealing games to the PS3 fanbase, we've had a few games that would have easily sold over 5 million copies in other consoles. Besides, GT, Sony 1st party software do not sell to the level they should. It could also be a marketing issue, so its debateable.
