Here's some staggering money stats for you. Did you know that US consumers spent a whopping US$ 4.8 billion on Xbox 360 hardware, software and accessories for the year of 2009? Yep, despite all your complaints and rants, you still made them 4.8 bill richer.
Breaking down the stats, Microsoft reports that they raked in some US$ 2.7 billion on games alone during last year, with US$ 2.4 billion earned from third-party shares. Because of these numbers, Microsoft faces the new year ahead with much confidence, saying that 2010 will be the "biggest year in Xbox history," given that they have big game title launches in store, and of course, the big debut of Project Natal.

I am a graphics whore though, that's why I am more excited for PS3 in 2010. The only thing that catches my eye on 360 is Alan Wake, and it's barely reaching Killzone standards, let alone Uncharted 2...so we will see when it actually releases though. Everything else on 360 is look very "meh"...

Only things I'm looking forward to from Sony, Last Guardian (maybe best game of 2010) and Heavy Rain. God of War 3 looks ok. Everything else just looks dumb to me. DC Universe could be good or could lay a giant egg, and Mag really isn't a good FPS (not that I would expect PS gamers to know good FPS games tho lol)
Xbox's lineup really doesn't seem that great either, ME2 should be up there with Last Guardian for best game of 2010, and Metro 2033 looks awesome. Everything else I'm not sure. I'm tired of the SC delays, they must be having problems with that game, Lord of Shadows looks kinda dumb, after watching vids of Alan Wake I'm not rly interested, and I don't expect much from Fable 3. I like what I've read about Reach so far but I have this feeling Bungie will find some way to mess it up.

To smack that only a third of God of War III would suffice... But even admiting yet another Halo (YAHl :) )... And yet another fable...what else...?

People should learn from mistakes.
Ps3 has best exclusives all from the old school ps2 butlittle kids like you who grew up with a freaking fail of a console would never understand what the ps2 was....and ps3 is more than anything else. Gt5 gow3 heavy rain. WKc1+2, yakuza 3 4 and probably the other one. And shit loads more that I don't know. Everything on 360 is also on Games for windows so I don't give a damn hahahah.
Go and cry over your console for loosig the best franchises of history!!!!
