hate to burst your collective bubbles but the only reason ps3 sales are currently surging is because blu ray has dominated.

mgs4, as great of seris as i'm sure it is *never played it and it never has much interest for me* will not move alot of systems because it simply dosen't have that wide of an appeal over games like brawl, halo 3 and WoW.

brawl will most likely not move a ton of systems either, but it will cause a slight surge, like mgs4, only bigger ;)

Can I ask what major worldwide demographical research firm you work for,
and where you got your Masters degree,
you know...in order to officially be able to make a statement like that and have it be more than
pure assumption?

you are bashing it in a way, saying it doesnt have a base. plus you say its not interesting to you, then say youve never played it.

"oh yeah brawl is the kiddiest game ive ever seen, i have no interest in it. wont sell any systems and is some trash. oh yeah btw ive never played it"

I don't care how many systems MGS will move. As long as I get my copy, I'm happy. You can keep all of those "appealing" games for yourself.

The only reason? That's the dumbest statement i read in awhile...

Maybe its because consumers are starting to realise MS has the weaker system.

I figured that the haters would try this , lol ........ I would say that the ps3 is doing a little bit better over last year because there is more great software and the ps3 is $100 cheaper to go along with that. Those are far more importnat than a current niche movie format.

That and the fact of only 38% saturation of hdtv's in the US including ones in bars,lounges,ect. And only a fraction of those do 1080p. I think that games are the biggest factor here.

If you seriously think that the only reason the PS3 is surging is because of Blu-Ray, then very few people will listen to your ramblings.

With the fact that next Feb didgital TV is going to be the only TV in the US and now many of these replacement TV's will most likely be HDTV's. Then add all the things coming to the PS3 within the next few months, this will be another selling point for the PS3.

Sales are worrying you enough that you madea thread to try and get lemmings to back you up, thus making you feel good.

MGS4 is a system seller, just because you hope it isn't doesn't make that so.
