2012 Playstation resolutions

PSU: Year 2011 was a great year for PlayStation. Along with a hot E3 2011 conference, this year saw the release of hit titles like Dead Space 2, LittleBigPlanet 2, and Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception. The price of the PlayStation 3 was lowered and the sequel to the PSP, the PS Vita, was officially announced.
Now at the end of 2011, we look forward to what 2012 may offer. 2011 was not a year without flaws, and thus we only hope that 2012 will address them. Here are some items that certainly need resolving regarding the PlayStation brand in 2012.

Not trying to complain too much but there was only one sentence about PSP in that whole article and it wasn't even anything interesting/useful to gamers.

When I check out the PSP section here, I like to read more substantial information than a one sentence rumor.

even though the PS3 have a ton of games 2012 is gonna be a tough year. Nintendo is launching the Wii U, the 3DS is destroying the Vita and the Xbox is selling like crazy thanks to Kinect. =/

if the 360 is selling like crazy then the PS3 must be on fire cause its selling more then the 360 worldwide. Stop getting fooled by the US media, yes the 360 sold 1.7m in Nov but the PS3 outsold the 360 the previous 10 months.

unless nintendo can get some fantastic launch titles for the wiiu i doubt that it'll have much of an impact on either x360 or ps3 this year, it'll be launching and probably at a steep price if they hope to have a better set of hardware than the ps3. btw, the wiiu will likely have a Q4 launch, which wont bother the ps3 much, rather it would kill the x360 sales. playstation depends the least on Q4 sales out of all the other consoles. without Q4 sales ps3 would still be strong, if the x360 or wii lost Q4 sales they would plummet.

the vita is doing better than the 3DS did at its launch, so the vitas doing fine, and with all the games that are announced it'll probably gain momentum pretty well

the x360 is only doing so-so, it would take a pretty big miracle for microsoft to not have the least consoles sold in 2011. this will be the third year in a row that x360 has sold the least consoles, microsoft will likely continue this next year as this year their stated goal was to be the best selling console, and even with all the spent money they're still the worst selling console.

so no, i doubt that playstation will have a tough year ahead of it, if anything they'll be most troubled with the vita, but i think they're going to be fine next year.

"...The video games can be high definition remake collections such as a Kingdom Hearts 1 and 2 collection..."

Would be awesome!

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted
