BTW I have a thought. With the sub par sales on the PS3 for games like Uncharted, and to an extent UTIII, does this now give credence to the assumption that people buy the PS3 as a blu-ray player firstly, and of course whether this was Sony' s big plan the whole time with the PS3?
Well, I for one have firsthand seen a good chunk of its problems.
I have over 10 good friends with ps3' s, and all but two of them have 360' s. The two without 360' s bought games like Heavenly Sword, Uncharted, CoD4, etc, but the rest of us only bought a couple ps3 games, and a lot of 360 games.
When it comes right down to it, I played my ps3 a lot before I got my 360, and now I barely play it at all, excluding my time on Rock Band. I beat Uncharted, but I didn' t buy it since I had already bought 6 xbox games in the month or so prior.
In my eyes, you will play your ps3 a lot if you don' t have a 360, but if you have a 360, you won' t play it nearly as much. Almost every multi-platform game is better on 360 if you have live, including Burnout and CoD4, both games that are no worse looking or performing on the ps3.
As for being used as a blu ray player, I certainly know a lot of guys that do buy blu rays for it, but none of us bought it with the intention of using it more for movies than games.
I see this all changing in 2008 where I expect to play my ps3 at least as much as my 360. MGS4, LittleBigPlanet!, Killzone 2, Resistance 2, Echochrome, Steet Fighter HD Remix, GT5, Motorstorm 2(maybe), Final Fantasy(maybe), are all gonna be huge games for me and so far I don' t see the 360 with a better lineup of games.
