[QUOTE="KAS3Y_JAM3Z"]you're correct about the standings now.
but you are already championing the PS3 as the winner of 08 when those game you listed havn't come out yet. Nor has 2008 even arrived! Don't take this the wrong way, seriously, but you just have to wait and see until you can be sure of what you claim.

Yea ofcourse, im just sayin im mentioning all of that because its so stupid to think the opposite too, that PS3 is completely out of the loop just because of this year, we'll just wait till next year and see what happens, I personally have great confidence PS3 will sell a lot next year and it'll get a lot of good AAA franchises, but to think that its gonna do bad just because of a slow start is naive.
And to the other post about more then 2 games, I realize those games I was just listing franchises that can go beyond hardcore gamers, if you ask somebody who doesnt play games anymore about Gran Turismo chances are they're gonna know about it because its been around for 10 years, but when it comes to games like Dead Rising or Ninja Gaiden, those imo are more cult fanbase, im not saying they're bad games, Sigma was the first Ninja Gaiden game I played and I loved it, but they're not system sellers like everyone puts them out to be, 360's 08' lineup will be great, JUST like PS3's 07' lineup was great (atleast the second half of the year, the first half sucked badly), just because PS3 didnt get a bunch of AAA's doesnt mean it doesnt have great games right now.
well, it doing bad now DOES hurt it in the long run. Does it mean the PS3 is doomed? No way. But it does affect it's market share. and it sends a message to devs.
Devs wanna make a game that will sell well and make them money. Such as the 360 and the Wii. So it doing poorly now DOES affect it's overall life span, and if it will be a healthy life or not.
Only time will tell though.
I'm interested to see if sony's statement about the PS3 lasting 10 years will hold up or not. That should be interesting.
