Just out of the blue...I think it would be cool to see Capcom start it's own line of home systems.

Many may not agree but it gives you something to think about I guess.

i dont understand all this doomsaying.

Sony is just having a really slow launch.

not enough good games and a price far more expensive than the majority of people are willing to pay is why sales are low.

when more good stuff start coming in and price starts coming down then sales will increase.

and you cant doomsay just because a few exclusives went multi. think about it properly. the console is expensive and devs are probably seeing low product penetration. they dont want to spend so much money just to sell to such a small audience. so they ported to a system with an already higher userbase. if devs had no faith in PS3 at all they wouldnt have considered a PS3 version. once PS3 numbers are moving along they might make the next game in the series exclusive to PS3 if it has the numbers they like.

it is stupid to say they cant win just because they have been having a horrible first two months. yes they are having troubles selling systems but they are troubles that will be overcome in due time.

Its a circle .

Look at the ps2 .

It came out , was by itself for a year and its installed base got higher and higher . It became the lead dev platform even with the weaker and more complex hardware .

The gamecube and xbox couldn't keep up with the exclusives on the system and the ports becasue they had a smaller installed base at launch and it was harder for all but a few devs to make money on those platforms.

This in turn lead to more multi console games on the ps2 and more exclusives which in turn lead to a larger installed base and rinse adn repeat .

This is what is starting to happen with the xbox 360 .
It was out first , has a large installed base and amonster attach rate. Devs see this and figure lets make ports for it . Ms is paying certian devs for exclusives and is creating their own excluvies and live anyhwere titles ( pc ports ) . This will in turn lead to more buyers which will lead to more development support.

The 360 is only going to get cheaper as the ps3 gets cheaper . If most 3rd party devs target both platforms it will be up to sony and ms to buy or develop their own big block busters .

But for a long time the 360 will have the software advantage . Not only that but ms's lead over sony actually grew with the ps3 launch !!!

Every day the cost of entering next gen gets cheaper with the 360. Sure you can say that the 360 is still 300-400$ .But there are good titles already at the 20=30$ mark . FNR3 , COD2 , Outfit , PDZ , Kameo , Ridge Racer and a few others are all dirt cheap . Graw should also be droping in price to the 30$ range as Graw 2 comes out in 2 or 3 months .

All this makes total owner ship cheaper .

If sony has a lost momentum 2 months after launch there is a problem
