[QUOTE="Simplicity, post: 3187046, member: 1496"] Yes, it's really too early to tell with the PS3. I'm making a gut-based prediction. Agreed, PCs are going to be a big market for the really hardcore gamers. For an even more interesting prediction: I anticipate that XBox Live will soon be available on the PC. Wii and PS3 both have pretty unspectacular games. Not unusual for launch time. Heck the XBox360 STILL has an unspectacular lineup, but there are starting to be some real quality items on the Xbox side (Dead Rising, Gears of War, Oblivion, etc). But my guess is that if you don't like what the Wii has now, you probably never will. That doesn't mean it won't be a success anyways. The Wii is trying to pull non-gamers into the fold, and I think they might succeed somewhat. As for the PS3, here's the test of what developers think of a platform: when Xbox360s came out, Xbox games pretty much went away. The PS3 is coming out now, and the PS2 lineup looks far better than the PS3s ever did. GTA4 defecting to the Xbox was a big loss for PS3. [/QUOTE]
