[QUOTE="MGS9150"][QUOTE="L1qu1dSword"] There is a vicious cycle SONY will be hardpressed to defeat this gen. Larger Install Base => More Software Sales => More AAA AA Exclusives => More Hardware Sales => Larger Install Base => etc etc...
And that is the struggle SONY faces just with the 2nd place opponent. NPD showed that PS3 sold 30k more units last month and with a nearly 10 million gap between the two does anyone realize how long it would take for PS3 to catch 360 at that rate. Don't forget the beast called Gears 2 coming out for the holidays. MGS4 may move units but NG2 coming out the same month stands a good change of negating that. Especially since NG2 looks far more AAA worthy then MGS4 with its boring color scheme, 2d looking graphics, yawn gameplay, too many cutscenes, and a rediculus convoluted story to boot.
Bottom line is I've seen so many threads boasting 2008 was in the bag for PS3.....well.....you guys are just gonna have to get ready to eat your words again. Just like when you claimed 2007 the PS3 would smash the 360. Or maybe before the launch when you proclaimed it would be first place and king just like PS2. Get ready to get the ole foot in the mouth cows, 2008 doesn't look as friendly to you as your never ending supply of unrealistic optimism might suggest.

Thats where you lost all credability.
hey i didnt just say "MGS4 is suckage." I gave reasons which you did not dispute in anyway. I'd say with a response like that you have no credibillity to begin with( the snake avatar does not help much either).
First of all judging by the gameplay videos MGS4 is one of the best looking console games I have seen to date, The gameplay is amazing and the cutscenes are short and do not take away from the experience, they add to it by making it more cinematic and epic. The story is the best aspect of the game, its refreshing to have an interesting and deep story as apposed to most of the garbage stories we have these days. It seems to me you have never played a MGS game in your life and are only bashing the game because you are a fanboy.
