almost ALL hardcore games sell POORLY on PSP AND DS.
ONLY Nintendo games(which most are CASUAL stuff) have great sales, all other just suck.

Final Fantasy IV DS Square Enix 1 47,621 (!)
even for great remake, less then 50k first week. Do you see any 3rd party hardcore DS game in the top?
Both consoles suffer from pirated games, ONLY that Casual g...
so, the price must be right,
of`course amazon doesn`t represent 90% of NA market, but still.. =)

But, after x360 pricecut, i hope, Sony will reac, the lower price for ps3, the more people will able to afford it. =)
But just to think, that 199$ is less, then PS2 price in Europe.. that is something.. =)
of`course ps2 price in NA is 129$, but still.. =)
Overall, pricecut is a good thing for a consumer.
that`s just a fact.
hit or not? who cares? well ok, fanboys care, gamers just play games and enjoy, if they like them, no matter what score game gets.
anyway, i hope, that by summer 2009, when will be released FFXIII in Japan(just like FFX was released in summer), PS3 userbase will reach 30 mln. and that will make Square-Enix change their mind, unless M$ is still will be able to hold back 20 mln. PS3 users in USA/Europe.
it has fully operating and GREAT looking Crytsal Tools engine,
that means just like with psp:
FF7:CC
FF:dissidia
KH:bbs
PE3
FFaXIII
on SAME engine,
they can create FFXIII, FFXIIIv, KH3 and many other games for PS3 in a very short time.
Well, those last 4 psp games are coming within 12-16 months(Dec 08 - Dec 09), so every 3-4 months GREAT game from Square, it`s POSSIBLE, atleast on PSP. =)
GT5P owns graphically in racing games.
Ratchet owns graphically in 3D adventures games.
Uncharted/MGS4 owns graphically in 3rd person action games.
KZ2 owns graphically in FPS on consoles.
Naruto owns graphically in anime-based games.
Did i miss something?
And yes, 1st year of PS3 life, many multiplatform games weren`t running on ps3 as good as on x360, BUT that is changing. This won`t last forever, tide will change.
Moreover, m...
and don`t forget, that on DVD you will have to DUBLICATE textures, sound and etc. on EVERY dvd. =)
and ps3 only 1,5 year on the market.)
PS3 is FUTUREPROOF.
Soon or later This would happen..)

No Seriously
It would be a humiliation for x360 if console woudn`t have MORE better games with 1 YEAR advantage.)
For now it`s only SPECULATIONS.
Both might come true.)
Then, MORE GAMERS will be able to play GOOD games.)
Since, ME was developed for x360, and Tekken 6 for PS3, that means, both games won`t suffer in quality and may only improve.)
or atleast not like them. =) especially, if you are not x360 owner.))
p.s. he cries, because he wants MORE Japan oriented games. Though, x360 this time has FAR MORE Japanese games, then first box had. Capcom support, Namco support, now even Square Enix support, what else would he want???
long time ago in 2005-2006 Square was planning to create FFXIII exclusively for PS3.
But, after seeing Capcom strategy, with multiplatform engine(PC, PS3, X360), they decided to go in SAME way(after all they are 3rd party developers).
That`s why FFXIII was so much delayed, creating multiplatform engine for PC, PS3, X360 requires some time..
Now, after engine is complete, they will be able to create multiplatfrom games, just like Capcom do. Moreover, they ...
not natural, pc-like style.
well, that`s what i see, you can see something different.)
x360 60GB version + 3-5 years of Live! = 500-600$.
PS3 80GB version + blu-ray player = 400$.
People are NOT dumb, atleast not all.))
I`m impressed, NO.
MGS4 run natively at 1024x768, but for PC to run at such resolution, you would need a something like 8 core intel processor and GF9800GTX.
BECAUSE pc would stuck(drop FPS) there, where game is perfectly optimized for PS3. To optimize game for mid range pc, you would need years, many years.
p.s. REPEAT:
God of war 2 was running on 300Mhz cpu, 150Mhz gpu with only 4Mb vram and 32Mb main ram.
And for worse looking Pr...
1Gb memory card for PS2... awesome.)
And even, if x360 version will be released after 1 year in Japan.. WHO will wait SO much time in Japan??
so who cares? ps3 version won`t hurt because of x360, and x360 version will get probably game with compressed textures, just like RAGE, i doubt Square is going to release game on more then 4 dvds.
You happy about inferior PORT? It`s your choice. =))
