Giving Credit Where Credit is Due

Many folks have argued that the sole reason for me purchasing a PS3 was that I could sit back and lay into it as a "disgruntled" console owner. For the years I have owned it has easily been ranked three of three in terms if the current generation consoles.

Its not that I have any issue with the Playstation brand, however I take issue with the fact that Sony opted to release a console and over the course of almost the first two years do next to nothing to support it in terms of games while its exclusives melted away and found their way onto 360.

However, the last year has certainly been one where I do have to give credit to the folks at Sony for at least making an attempt to aim the ship in the right direction.

Metal Gear Solid 4, Disgaea 3, Little Big Planet, Valkyria Chronicles, Resistance 2, Killzone 2, and Infamous have certainly made the last year a lot more interesting then I could have expected.

It seems that the folks in Japan are starting to realize that folks are not buying the console just for the sake of brand loyalty anymore and are actually trying to lure gamers back to the brand with a fairly respectable library.

While I still don't feel that the PS3 has anywhere near the Library diversity that the Xbox 360 does, the gap is certainly not as wide as it was a year ago.

I have to wonder what Microsoft has in store? Or have this now simply fallen into the same trap that Sony did?
