Report: PS3 comback, shallow Wii, tepid portables in '08

According to IGN GamerMetrics, which monitors the traffic patterns of some 15 million hardcore gamers, the PlayStation 3 is "poised to make a run" in 2008 thanks to strong interest in Metal Gear Solid 4, Killzone 2, Devil May Cry 4, and LittleBigPlanet, three of which are exclusive.

Bro stop trying to regulate a f#cking website like a little biotch and try getting a life. Stop getting so emotionally involved in this imaginary war. I WILL SAY WHAT I WANT TO SAY TO THESE [email protected] THAT HAVE TRASHED THE PS3 FOR A YEAR STRAIGHT.

ALL BOTS WILL BE PWNED IN 2008 AND B3YOND.

Seriously man. You making us all PS3 fans look stupid. Ease up on the x360 fan bashing. I know we got alot of crap from them last year but it is no excuse to do the same.

[v1c1ous]

cereal and milk~

[Iron Man 2]

Hell yeah,let's serve these b*stard Xbox fanboys all this year!

I know I sure will continue to do so;)

[InYourMom]

All of Zhuks comments are reported as SPAM, yet this total loser can spew his homophobic bigotry and as long as it's directed at 360 owners it's A-OK!!!

Report this hate rant!

[The Brave 1]

tOTALLY AGREE WITH U HARRY.Its also funny to me that these [email protected] refuse to see that they r still playing catch up to a 7 year old console ,the PS2.Long Live Sony!Play Beyond!

[Tsukasah]

I believe the reason why Zhuk's comments are reported as spam is because people are actually able to see what he says, while Harry has one bubble. I don't think I would waste 3 seconds of my time reporting Harry as spam, as he has one bubble. Though.. I did just waste about a minute of my time stating the obvious....

[Iceman100x]

Isn't this what they said 2 years ago? Ps3 has failed so far, and it can't come back from that.....just bring out the ps4 already.

[hotshot127]

i would bet my money on it that you also said ps3 would be outsold by the 360 by more then 2 to 1 last christmas.

and bring out the ps4 already? are you a dumbass, even if it was ready, that would be a very stupid move, something that microsoft has had plenty of expierence with(xbox)

your a dumbass

[zambrota]

ps3 did well for its 2007 lineup

in terms of worldwide sales ps3 did beat x360 in 2007

not to even mention the Great lineup ps3 has for 2008

[castags]

Did people really think sony dropped the ball this gen or what? I agree it started slow but it's sony and they killed the nintendo back in the day. I mean, come on....it's sony.

[liquidsnake]

True mate. They killed Nintendo and they killed MS (xbox), now they will kill Nintendo and MS once again.

But seriously I don't care that much. I couldn't give a f*ck whether SOny wins or lose. Same goes for MS and Nintendo.

[castags]

go blow a snowman.

[cmrbe]

the PS3 is already back.

[zambrota]

yes

However ps3 will be back when mgs4 is launched in north america

[InYourMom]

Wasn't this the rally cry at the start of 07 as well?

You just wait!!!!! blah, blah, blah..

PS3rd place it is.

EDIT: I thought IGN was paid off by MS and was all "xbots"?? Oh, I guess they are cool now.. flip-flop

[zambrota]

worldwide

wii
ps3
x360

north america
wii
x360
ps3

you do realize that ps3 had no major games in 2007?

all its big games are coming out in 2008.

xbox 360 had the best lineup in 2007

it also has a quite decent lineup in 2008 with alanwake ,gears 2 etc

[pwnsause]

people lets make N4G a better place by shutting this man Inyourmom up. Paid for by Pwnsause

[chrno6]

ps3 has the most impressive line of games in 08. :)

[greg_for_sony]

the x crap is going down in 08

[eagle21]

Third party games like COD4, FIFA, PES, and Assassin's Creed have performed extremely well on a worldwide basis and first party games as well. New ip's were not going to compete 1:1 with the Mario's or Halo's of 07', but Sony has big franchises in 2008 that can. Every gamer should be excited about what Sony has this year. It's been only 1 year in N.A. and Japan and 10 months in Europe, India, Australia, etc.

[BrotherNick]

Little Big Planet is telling me to get a ps3 to complement my wii...

[wiizy]

sony fanboys are starting with their hopeless cries.. ps3 will be in last place deal with it.. stop posting garbage.. wii is the best and is in front for good.

[sleepyk]

stop acting like ps3 has no good games this year. the wii effect is not gonna last. 3rd party wii exclusives are flopping, no major games like GTA4, DMC4, MGS4, KZ2, FFXIII and VSXIII are coming to the wii. the only big 2008 games on wii is SSBB and MKWii. Face it, PS3 has some good games.

[Vo_Cal]

I believe in whatever the majority here believes... So give me bubbles.. It's pretty bad that i have to beg for bubbles. I cant seem to have an honest opinion on this site without fanboys raping me...

[KozmoOchez]

First of all, I hate fanboys not because they don't always agree with me, but because they are so blinded by their own ignorance that they can't make rational decisions or have rational conversations.
With that being said, I own a ps3(and ps1, ps2, slim psp) and every time Sony makes a new console, IT DOES WELL, what makes you think different this time, and I'm gonna try to just use facts so I don't sound like a fanboy, so.....RESISTANCE 2, KILLZONE 2, METAL GEAR SOLID 4, DARTH VADER ON SOULCALIBUR 4, LITTLE BIG PLANET, AND PLAYSTATION HOME(not including the possible 2009 games like FFXIII and GT5)...that's all that needs to be said

Oh and by the way, rumor has it is that the only reason GTA IV is not ps3 exclusive(later being released on Xbox 360) is because Rockstar is working on, or will be working on, a new ip for Sony so suck on that Microsoft and Nintendo fanboys, and while ur suckin on it, go to the G4 website and compare the press conference for each and see how much better Sony presents itself, and how desperate Microsoft sounds explaining stats for like 30min and showin off their "exclusive downloadable disney movies" OMG THATS ALL I EVER WANTED IN A CONSOLE,TO WATCH MY FAVORITE DISNEY MOVIES IN HD....get over yourselves
...sorry so long, had a lot to say for a first timer, just trying to be heard.

[Shaka2K6]

When you think about it. wii and x360 have to games for 2008 and PS3 kills them easily. Sony wins again.

[whoelse]

I agree with this article.
