[QUOTE="5starsteve"]Yet, no one can answer my question of an x360 system seller?

Why bother? You already have your mind made up as to what the future will hold.
Just admit there isn't anything that is confirmed that will help the system along next year. Even though I'm pretty sure MS will make sure gears 2 gets out.
Not at all, I havn't made up my mind and I cannot predict the future, I just need evidence to support the 360's arguement, as there is plenty for the ps35starsteve
BTW you listed 3 games for the ps 3 plus 1 Multiplat (GTA 5).
..and why can't we compare Ninja Gaiden 2 to games like little big planet and MGS4 and GTA? Ninja Gaiden on Xbox was an amazing game, just because 90% of the population sucked at it doesn't make it bad.
Lets see off the top of my head, Fable 2, Alan Wake, Too Human, Ninja Gaiden 2, UT3 and GTA5 (even though they aren't exclusives the majority of versions bought will be 360). Thats just off the top of my head.

Like I said Ninja gaiden is never gonna sell systems, ut3 out on ps3 first, and GTA has sold way more on sonys systems and is generally known for being a playstation game5starsteve
Ever stop to think that GTA sold more on PS2 because the system itself had 6 times as many users as the Xbox did?
Given your perspective I'd say the 360 has plateaued more-so than peaked. It's reached it's potential and can't really get any higher, but it's future isn't exactly grim and bleak either. More of the same really.
I think there is still some room for it to scale a bit higher personally.

4 of those are explusives. 2 are Multiplat. those 2 multiplat will sell more on the 360 then on the PS3 as proved by the Madden sales.
I never said they were system sellers I stated that they are GAME that are coming out. Since that what he asked someone to post.
Besides that System sellers arent needed in year 3 of a console. Years 1 and 2 only need system sellers. By year 3 75% of peopel whow ill buy a system have aolready done so.

MGS4 and FF aren't system sellers? Wow I really believe you guys will say anything. I have SEEN people by ps2s for mgs and ff, just like people buy 360s for halo. FF is one of the biggests sony franchises imo and the ps3 on the whole mostly deal with platformers,rpgs and fighting games. So saying it's for rpg guys well..... that's the majority of those who had a ps2 from my expierence. So they ARE system sellers. Killzone imo is not, sony should not go like MS into this FPS thing. Stick to the genre you are strong in and you will keep your fanbase. Just like MS should not go into rpgs =/.

Regardless of what your personal like or dislike of the game is, there is no denying the fact that Halo 3 moves systems.

You realize that was when ps 2 was the king of consoles? Now there is more people with 360s then ps3's. So how do you figure they will outsell the 360 with gta sales?
..and it's 4 console exclusives. We are talking consoles. One game going PC and 360 doesn't count. This is consoles we are talking about.

FF and MGS4 aren't CASUAL GAMERS GAMES. The definition of a system seller is mass appeal. Sure SOME peopel probably buy a ps3 for those games but the majority of people have never played any Final Fantasys.

Indeed, but I look at it this way. The PS3 seems to only just recently come out of it's shell. For it's whole first year I never even considered purchasing one. But now I wouldn't mind having one one bit. (slight understatement) Ps3 seems to be picking up some serious steam now with exclusives especially. (Sure they're not AAA, but I've never been one to let critical reviews sway me opinion.) Plus with the PS3's 2008 lineup which could surpass/equal/fall short(Depending on who you ask)of the 360's 08 line I'm expecting to see the PS3 boom. The 360's exponential growth has come to an end no and it's just a slow steady slope now. The PS3 is just beginning it mad climb. Who will come out higher remains to bee seen but I'm still seeing room for improvement with the 360, and lot of potential for the PS3 to catch up/surpass.

If you spend that much on a game system, chances are good you have the internet. And when you say LBP will not be a system seller, you are indeed saying you know the future. You could say you don't think it will be, but by predicting it like you are, you are trying to say the future.
