@CGI - Yeah true ....but summer is the slowest time of year. IMO a great way to counteract the halo reach hype would be with GT5 hype. I think it would successfully mute the halo effect

MSG4 released during the summer and did very well, but I wonder if it would have have done even better with a holiday release.

I highly doubt that.  MS would drown out GT5 with the Halo: Reach ad campaign.  If anything putting GT5 in the holidaywould hurt its sales because of all the other games people would want.  In the summer, everyone who wants GT5 can and will get it without any competition.  It would make a very nice boost for them in a slow time.


That's what I'm thinking. Nothing can really outhype Halo:Reach me thinks. Probably safer for GT5 to be the big summer blockbuster instead.

In the UK, GT5 would probably drown out Halo hype.

 

I was thinking, a killer bundle for Sony in America: 250gb PS3 slim with MAG + Gran Turismo 5. Imagine.



Rockstar: Announce Bully 2 already and make gamers proud!

Kojima: Come out with Project S already!

Nice. Now I can plan it all out. January is just MAG for me. Feb will be Heavy Rain and Last Rebellion. March is FFXIII and later on GoW3. Then I'll get White Knight with left over cash later on.



4 ≈ One

I think thats a pretty strong line-up for 1st quarter of 2010. I really want to see how MAG will do.



TO GOD BE THE GLORY

What games does Sony have going into the holiday 2010? Last Guardian maybe?

I feel like Sony is going to drop all the heavy hitters early on and leave a big gaming gap for the rest of the year.

Isn't ModNation Racers coming during that perios too? What about Eyepet?



Many reviewers don't know what Heavy Rain is going to be.....Their should be a demo because I doubt many gamers know what Heavy Rain just is as a game. It looks to be an strong emotional experience but how will be the gameplay.

I doubt Sony give a hoot about Halo. It's MS that need to respond to GT5 releasing in the summer., i wonder if they'l release Halo:reach in the summer?. Sony havent announced there lineup for fall yet. MS hype 1 or 2 games with huge marketing budgets. Sony do it a different way by releasing games over multiple genres, quality in depth.

 

Where did Sony confirm there q1 lineup because i cant find a press release or interview anywhere?. And half of there q1 lineup seems to be missing.

Big known famous games will sell ganbusters regardless of on what month it will be release IMO and GT5 can't counteract HALO because they are not competing with each other. GT5 have a different fanbase than HALO.  They're even not on the same genre.



I'm really looking forward to God of War III in 2010. Hopefully by 2010, I will have a job.
