Since we're in the second month of this year, name your predictions for the PS3 this year of what may happen towards the platform. I would bring this topic back up later throughout the year to see if any of us are right.

My predictions:

1). Price Cut

2). Wardevil announced (E3 2009)

3). Syphon Filter PS3 announced (E3 2009)

4). Possibility of Eight Days or The Getaway coming back due to Killzone 2 sales

5). Sony unveils Super Secret Game that BBC reporter saw at E3 2009

6). Update 3.00 to include features like in-game voice chat and other online features for PSN

7). New IPs (as always)

What are your predictions?

Great year for ps3! Price cut. Fewer game flops. Battlefield 1943 sells like crazy. SF4 sells like crazy. People find out gta series went downhill. They mesh more comics with games. More games with movies.

I also forgot to put another prediction on my list. Although it doesn't belong in this forum, but there is a rumor that Sony will unveil the PSP 2 this year at E3 2009.

Yeah, but the PSP really itself isn't what it is anymore since so many developers are turning away from it since the DS is still the king of handhelds and making profit from it, but hopefully with games coming out this year like Resistance: Retribution, LocoRoco 2, Patapon 2, and others are sure to give the handheld a boost in sales this year.

I think your list is 100% guaranteed accurate my friend. Although, I think that Demon's Souls looks like to have some potential in in since it sold out a lot of copies in Japan its first day and is very popular, so it could be a hit in NA and Europe too.

White Knight Chronicles will be slated for a June release.

Sometime this year, a sequel to Valkyria Chronicles will be announced.

I'm not good at predictions, or coming up with them...

2009 Preictions:

1) Killzone 2 doesn't live up to the hype. While still being a pretty good game it will end up being about an 8.5 score from users. It won't be the next 10.0 game.

2) As an aftermath of Killzone 2's "failure" (I say failure only to mean it's inability to meet expectaions) CoD:MW2 will also underachieve.

3) FFXIII for the PS3 will out-sell the numbers for the 360. And the game will be very well recieved from fans and critics alike, being compared in its glory to that of FFVII or FFVIII.

4) GoW III will recieve rather low reviews. Future quote about the game: "Although visually stunning, gamers feel as though they are playing the same game they played back on the PS2, with hardly anything new being brought to the table in the franchise's latest installment. Although the campaign is initially fun, the game gets repetitive early on, which doesn't bode well for the rest of the game seeing as how the game is very short in it's length.

Just predictions. And almost on the side of worst-case scenario, but I feel these outcomes are pretty realistic. And if they do happen this way... PS3 will be in trouble.

i do want price cuts or at least people 2 stop complaining bout prices. ur not just paying 4 the system but 4 the bluray player also and the enhanced hardware. also i think the games coming out soon like god of war 3 and final fantasies will definitely get some respect and popularity. the ps3 shows much potential 2 b the biggest thing since sliced bread.

Killzone 2 is released Feb 27 and I buy it and like it a lot.

Uncharted 2 comes out 2009 and I buy it and like it a lot.

Battlefield: Bad Company 2 is renamed Battlefield: Bad Company 1.5

New Ghost Recon has voice command for AI squad mates.

PS3 gets a price cut and 29 trillion PS3s are sold.

A lot of people will get a PS3 because of its exclusives...the PS3 starts to show its superiority over the competition and consumers/gamers can't help but notice the difference.

You're right, this is just the beginning when the PS3 really starts to shine. What's funny is around the launch of the PS3, ppl were bashing it saying it didn't have games, now since it has a lot of games, ppl are now eating their words. LOL

1: Price cut (or new model doing the same thing as a price cut).

2: Killzone 2 will not sell as much as Halo 3 (sad but true).

3: One of the ps3 big 2009 exclusives (at least one) will be pushed back to 2010 (another sad but true fact).
