I agree, look at the list of those offline games. I'm not sure if it's just because of my status as a gamer, but I can tell the difference between game genres. FFXIV =/= a GTA styled game, nor is it a shooter, nor is it a reboot of Half-Life. It's an MMORPG which there's no threat to an MMO beyond the company itself, because right now there's MMOs from 1990s still alive and kicking even some underground MMOs.

The PS3 release will have a surge of players especially on the Japanese side, so it will fit just fine -- there's a slew of games you failed to mention that is Japanese specific coming out as well even for the PS2 still.

No game in history fades into oblivion unless you have zero playerbase -- The only thing that fades is hype, but Duke Nukem Forever was the running joke of the gaming industry yet they didn't throw in the towel.
