Gerhard Florin, Electronic Arts's international publishing head has said that the biggest fight for gamers will be in Europe and that, "Whoever wins the hardware war in Europe, most likely will be the overall winner" in relation to the 360, PS3 and Wii.
Speaking at the Reuters Technology, Media and Telecoms summit he also said that technology had already done so much for the industry that it was now turning its attention to improving the quality of story telling and bringing more emotion into gaming. He hopes that the time will come when technology has evolved so much that they will be able to focus purely on gameplay rather than realism.
He also talked about how mobile phones will be important in driving revenues across the industry especially with new casual customers but that they still have technological hurdles to overcome.
With these hidden gems to add to your backlog, it’s time to give some bangers the shine they deserve.
Numbers 6-9 were some of my absolute favorite early gen PS3 games. I'm still bitter about Incognito and Japan Studio.
The white knight chronicles and infamous games really need to come to modern platforms. MAG I really miss...poor zipper. The ps3 was definitely a unique console despite it being the worst home console of PlayStation.

This list compiles some of the top games we desperately want to get a sequel. Please give us more of our favorite games!"
Would love to see a sequel to the 7th gen FPS campaign SINGULARITY from RAVEN Software..

The PS3's European record breaking launch should pay off then. :D
they need to start releasing games the same time and jap and US releases, instead of us waiting 1-2 yrs for a top release.
With all due respect to PS3's record breaking launch it hasn't done much since!
I don't know anyone that has one at all. I know people that have Wii's and 360's and people that have both. In no way am I being biased, I'm not at school age so I dunno what the kids are getting!! Just telling it as I see it. I think the 360 has definatley done better than the original xbox and the Wii has shocked everyone! The PS3 is just too expensive and at the moment doesn't have much going for it.
I don't get it, how does winning 30% of the gaming community win you the war? NA accounts for almost 50% of all gamers
These stories are REALLY getting old & BORING!!
FACT: MS came out first, has the sales lead (over Sony), has more games, has a more robust online service and a lower price tag.

These 'prediction' stories are just lame & hopeful attempts at qwelling the losers...er...users who put their money into PS3.
