3rd party support for the Sony playstation brand is the most important thing to Sony. Sony has survived 2 consoles wars where they Didn't even make it's best game(people giving GOW best PS2 game is a joke) Minus God Of War wich came out to late in PS2 life anyways(i jumped the consoles ship along time ago waiting for next gen) Sony really has been selling Consoles with there 3rd party games and GTA is the 15 million selling franchise that used to be the main reason people chose ps2 over xbox and halo. Now what does sony have? First party games for Sony to me are a joke there usally copy cats of other games(remember Legend of dragoon or Syphon Filter)trying to be like FF and MGS.

if Sony loses every good 3rd party game and even at the moment. it is in the favor of the 360. why? the 360 is cheaper and they have a franchise thats exlusive to 360 that Sony couldn't top if it made 100 games. that game is Halo 3 after this is released for 360 , sales for 360 will go thru the roof. Sony's got nothing and when i say nothing i'm talking about the main thing people look for in a game. Well known franchises are a huge backbone in this industry. From Mario and Zelda to fable and Halo series on Sony are almost none existant. when it comes to this area. Sony Doesn't have that Big Franchise yet. Xbox 360 is cheaper has better online games and has better 1st party support and it's just the 1 year and 3 months into the wars. Microsoft has the best view of the playing field and they are gonna dominate. everyone knew if you wanna beat the playstation brand you need all the 3rd partys they have. I don't think 3rd party games should be used as tool by a consoles maker so people can buy there system if you want games to sell systems make you own killer franshises like Microsoft and nintendo have. this is what sony gets for depending on 3rd partys to sell there consoles every year.

 

Example biggest franchise coming to Ps3? by far MGS4 and guess what if MGS4 came out for Xbox 360 Halo 3 will still be the best franchise on the 360. but with sony MG4 will alsways be the Number 1 frachise because sony can't make a game better.

God of War isn't even that big of a franshise and in no way a cash cow game. also it's just a beat em up whos gonna buy a 600 system to play a beat em up over Halo 3. Funny how one game can end the thread when i stated minus god of war on the thread. GOW is not better than GTA SA or FF12. Best game coming to PS3 is MG$ no one is hyping or even saying GOW3 it's a new franchise maybe 1 or 2 years old can never compare to a Halo or Mario

 Ok Halo3 will be huge and we all know this. But Sony has its own killer franchises. I don't know how you can assume Halo3 will move more consoles than the upcoming Sony juggernauts, especially when Halo2 was the most overrated game of the last cycle and the second most important market couldn't care less about Halo. Might happen but drop the assumption of inevitability.

 As for 360 winning with multiplatform, sure, but I think you left out the key reasons -- Achievements and XBL.

I don't think 3rd party games should be used as tool by a consoles maker so people can buy there system if you want games to sell systems make you own killer franshises like Microsoft and nintendo have. this is what sony gets for depending on 3rd partys to sell there consoles every year.

Example biggest franchise coming to Ps3? by far MGS4 and guess what if MGS4 came out for Xbox 360 Halo 3 will still be the best franchise on the 360. but with sony MG4 will alsways be the Number 1 frachise because sony can't make a game better.

fact of the matter is we waited 4 years for GT to come on PS2 and it was an AAA game without online and Xbox has PGR wich was AAA and was online. either way your not gonna cry wichever gam you get. GT may be sony best selling franchise but it's just a racing game and for some reason the more next gen it gets the less cars and options you get to play. best GT was on the PS with GT2 that had like 500 plus cars.
