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.
