If you look at sales of GTA: San Andreas, it sold 14 million copies and it's the highest selling PS2 game. Over 100 million PS2's were sold. I doubt the main reason for the success of a console depends on one game or franchise. Also it came out on the Xbox as well and yet didn't even sell close to 14 million.

If GTA4 kills the Wii i will retire from video games and live a life as a monk

Bottom line is that GTA4, even Halo for that matter will NOT kill a console

I don't think it will but the problem is that GTA is not the only game that might push some against the Wii.

You're right.

Combine it with GT5, Madden, MGSIV, FFXIII and you have the reason why PS3 will reel in casuals/hardcore gamers. Non gamers will stick to the Wii.

although i agree with you, its not fair to say that because some people prefer Mario franchise, Metroid, and Super Smash Bros. more.

Why gamecube failed:

1) it's main color was Purple

2) Nintendo abandoned online support

3) low disk capacity

4) lack of 3rd party support (Compared to PS2)

I'm sorry but casual gamers probably wont shell out 600-800 bucks for a PS3, and most hardcore gamers are more into PC gaming.  You do the math.

Games like that will help the sales of the Xbox 360 and PS3 but they won't end the Wii's success.

The 360 will continue to have huge hits of its own, plus it's a cheaper option. Not that I'm saying which will sell more, but it is a big factor.

Yeah, 360 will do great too. I expect both MS/Nintendo to do better than they did last gen and while I'm sure Sony will lose some market share, I don't expect it will be a massive amount.

lol. Are you talking about FFXII? The game that was just released in PAL territories and sold 4 million in the US alone? You and me both know it's an extremely popular series.

Btw, don't ignore GT.

I don't think it was any of those games that made PS2 so successful. It was the vast variety of games and multiplatform games that were on two consoles would be on GC and PS2 or Xbox and PS2.

Never said one game will kill the Wii. 

GT5, FFXIII, MGSIV, GTAIV, KZ will allow for the PS3 to become number 1 again. Wii has non gamers covered which is why I think it will be more of a success than the GC.

I own all three systems and my buddies laughed Madden out of the Wii we rented it to try it. I am partial to my PS3 for sports I still like the PS2 controller feel better as does every single person I know. The Wii Madden may be good for someone who is terrible at sports games or has never played one but to veterans it was simply a gimmick.

I don't understand how you can have so much faith in Sony. I would think that 360 would have more marketshare before I consider the PS3?

GTA 4 FF13 and MGS 4 won't help the PS3 become number one, they won't do anything for it in Japan, and without japan you can't win (as the PSP DS war proved)

Well lets put it this way shall we?

What did sony have that they have lost so far?

Grand Theft Auto excusivity (at day one that is for all of those without their thinking caps on lol)

Devil May Cry as an exclusive

Dragon Warrior Series (woops one is now on the Wii and the other comming to the Ds?!?!)

People this is a pattern that was simply NOT the case with the gamecube erra

Sony is taking MASSIVE hits almost weekly while the Wii only gains strength

Nights on the Wii Very nice change

Mario and Sonic together on the Wii very nice

Resident Evil Unbrella On the Wii oh yes

Dragon Quest Very nice

O yeah and nearly top sales this trend will only contine so no Nintendo is not in trouble Sony is/thread

:lol: I think it's funny people who never play sports games actually believe that Madden is best on Wii :lol: well lets see what version they play at Madden bowl that should settle it :lol: hint: wont be played with a TV remote :lol:

IGN says the same thing, you know their career is to review games, i'm sure they have played some sports games in their lifetime.

I own all three systems and my buddies laughed Madden out of the Wii we rented it to try it. I am partial to my PS3 for sports I still like the PS2 controller feel better as does every single person I know. The Wii Madden may be good for someone who is terrible at sports games or has never played one but to veterans it was simply a gimmick.

so you try to stick your incident to everybody else's who have played it on Wii? Just because it happened to you doesn't mean it happened to everybody else. I can tell you that veteran madden players found it better and more engaging than the other versions. It's all a matter of opinion and taste.

Weird you just did what you said I should not...... 

 

that's the point, don't you get it, anyone can say something based on an incident and assume it's true to everybody.

I don't understand how you can have so much faith in Sony. I would think that 360 would have more marketshare before I consider the PS3?IQ138

I'm not relying solely on faith. I just don't underestimate certain game series and what impact they will have on the market.

BTW madden is best on Wii.  Ever since 2K football stopped, i swore that I was done with football games, but then Madden for Wii changed that.

The only people I know that don't agree with this are the people that are too cool for everything/too stuck in their ways to think outside the box.

Nope I think it was more innovation for innovations sake than a practical change. I actually played Football and believe me throwing a Football is nothing like waving a TV remote and playing Madden Wii is nothing like playing Football. I wanna just chill and have fun playing Madden with buddies not flail like a bunch of spastic people. I am not telling you what version to play I am telling you what version they will not be playing at Madden Bowl!

You're right.

Combine it with GT5, Madden, MGSIV, FFXIII and you have the reason why PS3 will reel in casuals/hardcore gamers. Non gamers will stick to the Wii.

its basically if you are clueless and have never played a sports game and you play it on the wii...then youll like it..

You're right. True sports fanatics know that the thumb and forefinger are the only thing you need to recreate the football experience best. Actual movements that mimic real life are teh casual.

Waving a TV remote around does not recreate the feel of Football either.

No but you are overestimating, with the exception of GT and FF these titles don't sell over a million in Japan, and even GT and FF aren't anywhere near the level of some of the games Ninty has in its stable

although i agree with you, its not fair to say that because some people prefer Mario franchise, Metroid, and Super Smash Bros. more.

:shock: thats very reasonable, Im sorry im just not used to hearing reassonable posts on system wars.
