lol, this is like the 10th "Will 2010 be the year of the ps3?" article I've seen in the last two weeks. We all know sony has an awesome year ahead of them, no need to write an article about it every 2 days.
Why would they port over ME2 without first porting ME1? If they're going to do it they might as well release both of them in a "Double Pack" of sorts.
That's IF they decide to do it. I don't really trust this source. I'm kinda wary when it comes to translated articles.
I appreciate what the ESRB is trying to do. Detail the "Bad Stuff" or lack thereof ahead of time to prevent confusion when the game is released. They're trying to avoid a repeat of the mass effect 1 fiasco, but it won't work. Fox News will still most likely complain about the game anyway.
Almost every copy in this printing will sell in the first 5 days. Japan goes CRAZY for FF games. Now, it'll be interesting to see how many ps3's this bad boy moves.
Oh, and it's almost confirmed that the ps3 version is going to sell a lot better. JRPG's die on the 360. Name one JRPG for the 360 that has moved more than 1M units in america and europe. Remember, Japan doesn't get the 360 version.
Pretty Good list, but I do have one thing to say:
I don't really agree with RPG of the year. I love the Hell out of Bowsers inside story, don't get me wrong, but I don't think it deserves to beat out stuff like Dragon Age or Demon's souls.
The PS3 "Survived" The Halo 3 launch...
I fail to see how this one is going to be any different.
I.CAN'T'.WAIT!!!
This game looks so awesome! One more month guys!!!
The environments look really improved, but I wasn't too impressed with the faces. The armor looks alot better, too, IMO.
WOW!! I was honestly expecting MW2 to win but I'm glad Uncharted 2 pulled off the upset!
Lol you crack me up. Fable 3 confirmed for 2010? Yeah, cause you know, Fable games AREN'T notorious for their delays. Trust me, Fable III won't launch on time.
Quit treating natal like a game...
Quit treating gears 3 like it's confirmed...
Also, just watch. Natal will alienate the hardcore audience.
Fair enough. We'll see how crackdown 2 does without a Halo beta attached to it. I know at least 10 people who bought the first crackdown for the beta code.
I never said the 360 exclusives weren't going to sell more. In fact, I'm fairly certain they will. I basically have no favorite console. I own all 3 of them and play games on each. So I wasn't attacking the lineup. I said all of them will sell decently except for crackdown. Mass Effect will probably sell the most out of that...
Incoming:
Fable III: Will Most likely get delayed.
Crackdown 2: Will flop just like the first one.
Alan Wake: Will sell ok, but not millions.
Mass Effect 2: Amazing game, will sell at least 2 million
Splinter Cell Conviction: Will probably sell decent, but hardly
something ps3 fans should be afraid of
Project Natal: Not guaranteed to succeed, let's wait and see.
Don't count on Gears 3 being...
I wouldn't count sony out yet. I mean, look at how nintendo turned it around after getting owned the previous two generations. Nobody expected nintendo to be leading when these 3 consoles were first announced. In fact a lot of people here mocked it, but look at it now. It only took them two years to win this generation. What's my point? My point is that you can't judge a future console's success based on how the last one performed, anything can happen.
Also, Alan Wake is every ...
Good list. Bioshock 2 is sure to impress. I was blown away the first time I saw rapture in bioshock 1.
Also I don't really get why they threw the new call of duty in there when it's the only game on the list that we have seen nothing of, not even concept art. odd...
I actually want to see them bring innovation to the genre. God knows the genre needs some innovation badly.
Name ONE time a JRPG for the 360 has sold well In the US.
I don't really care about swapping 1 disc. I own blue dragon, lost odysee, Infinate undiscovery, and star ocean 4. So it really doesn't bother me anymore.
Since when has a Fable game made it's target release date? Fable I and II were delayed at least twice. I severely doubt that it's going to make it's initial launch date.
Anything about Gears 3 is all guesswork. There's no evidence whatsoever. Personally I think that they should wait until next gen. Gears 2 was almost identical to gears 1 in terms of graphics. It's clear that they either maxed out the 360 or they have done all they can in terms of graphics. I would rather have them...
Doesn't matter to me. IF it did come out for the ps3, I would still get the 360 version because of the ability to transfer your character.
