I'll get to the rest at a later time. It is 6 in the morning and I am at work so won't have much time.

But I got to say it is getting harder and harder for people to pull out the Nintendo milking card, I got to say.

What are the big games folks are looking for on the Ps3.. GTA Iv.. MGS 4... Final Fantasy 13 and stuff like that

Same with the 360.

Just because Nintendo's franchises have been around longer people feel compelled to point it out, but at this point most of the industry is driven by known brands and licensed games.

As for non-milked franchises, I would wait for e3, but generally anything with Wii in the title is a safe bet. Batallion Wars. Endless Ocean. Not huge franchises but it is there.

And the 360 has a laundry list of exclusives and also the first game mindset. Which means when you think multi-platform games most associate it with the 360 first.

I think the success of the PS2, coupled with it's huge library and low selling price at the time of the PS3's release kind of hurt Sony. Given that the PS3 was really expensive at launch and that there weren't really any major titles out, why would anyone fork over all that money? Especially considering that Blu-Ray vs. HD DVD was still up in the air.

I think the PS3 sales are going to keep increasing for the remainder of the console's life.
