Sony owned the competition today

andrewf915745d ago

I wouldn't say owned, but it was a good conference overall.

syanara5745d ago

Mass effect 2 ps3, one of the competitions best games goes ps3. tho it was EA's press confrence on a console war level yeah sony owned the competition.

Dance5745d ago

it was good conference

ActionBastard5745d ago

No, owned is an understatement. Mass Effect 2. It is imo, the equivalent MGS4 getting announced for the 360. This franchise was a huge + for the 360 (in terms of console exclusive) and now that is gone. Then they showed some damn good games. Yeah, Sony prison raped the competition today. 2011 is going to be awesome for gaming.

D4RkNIKON5745d ago (Edited 5745d ago )

Sony brought it today and dropped it like a F*ing BOMB!! BOOM!

keyblademaster below... Way to sum it up /s You didn't mention all of the Move support from MAG to Virtua Tennis.. Little Big Planet's Music editor and much much more.

andrewf915745d ago (Edited 5745d ago )

Didn't think I'd get that many disagrees. I was only mentioning the conference. With the announcement of Mass Effect 2 and Resistance 3 then yes, Sony did own the competition today.

brazilianbumpincher5745d ago (Edited 5745d ago )

wow
vehicles
me2
resistance 3
kz2 multiplayer (jet packs&vehicles)WOW

as a neutral sony have upped the stakes BIG TIME

@T9X69 dude i love my 360 but you sound butt hurt as f**k,ask yourself WHY didnt anyone have anything substantial to show? it all comes down to what i been saying all along without first party studios you can only ride the 'third party exclusive' gravy train for soo long

im pi**ed also at microsoft,what now halo and gears which im buying but ms dont own the rights to gears,all the money ive spent on 360 and now it turns out its a 3 exclusive game machine,ms better reward my loyalty ive had two RROD,i bought the new 360s

andrewf915745d ago

That I did not. Move support for MAG is very interesting and I would like to see how that plays out.

SeanRL5745d ago

Don't ya know? You're not allowed to say anything slightly negative about Sony on this site.

andrewf915745d ago

Thanks for the warning. I wasn't trying to say anything bad about Sony. I guess people freak out a little easily if one bad thing is said about them.

rroded5745d ago

short of giving ps3's for free

badz1495745d ago

both the competitions and my wallet!

To be fair, Sony didn't have much competition today. No one else brought shit worth a damn, (besides ME2 for PS3 fans).

A Cupcake for Gabe5745d ago

dude...come on...

Sony did outstanding. No need to fuel any fire. Competition or Not, they delivered.

OSU_Gamer5745d ago (Edited 5745d ago )

honest question... is MS having a press conference?

Edit:

If so, its already been beaten lol.

Ilikegames765745d ago

somewhere that they were showing Kinect Harry Potter. Good luck with the hardcore gamers with that game.

Paradise Lost5745d ago

Now we don't have to hear these damn xbots about them having me2.

OSU_Gamer5745d ago

yeah...because I hated hearing 360 fans responding with the exclusives that the 360 has every time the PS3 fanboys list out the PS3 exclusives.

ForzaGT5745d ago

sony day, 1st Mass effect(the best game on 360, then the number of hardcore move game, the support for 3D with the ps3, to finish it of with two more exclusive of the calibre of rachet all4one AND resistance 3 announce make this a sensational show by sony,

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle12d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Relientk7712d ago

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments

"Gaming’s Biggest Fighting Franchise"

Press X to (seriously) doubt.

DarXyde18d ago

Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.

Soy19d ago

And then MK1 killed it again.

15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.

PlayStation legend Shuhei Yoshida says Jim Ryan fired him because he didn't listen to him

Why did Sony push Shuhei Yoshida out of his role leading PlayStation's first-party games? He'd overseen some huge successes. Well, apparently, he didn't listen.

Relientk7720d ago

Yeah I can see that for sure. Shuhei Yoshida should have been in charge not Jim Ryan.

Cacabunga20d ago

It should be free highway for him now.. but Sony are too stupid to see this, especially that moron Hulst

S2Killinit20d ago (Edited 20d ago )

Wtf why all that anger. PlayStation is dominating on every level. Besides I think there is a little more to hiring a CEO than just who is available. Its not like its a athlete your team wants to buy.

neutralgamer199220d ago

S2Killinit

live service failures, chasing trends, closing studios. yes dominating

Cacabunga19d ago

Sony is Dominating because competition is not existing. Compared to previous gens this is the poorest in terms of software offerings.

Last gen we got Uncharted 4 Lost Legacy and TLOU2 from ND alone.

This is so far a remasters gen, with no competition to lift up the quality

1nsomniac19d ago (Edited 19d ago )

..."PlayStation is dominating on every level"....

...Really???

PlayStation are soon heading into a new generation in the not to distant future. They currently have the worst customer satisfaction they've ever sustained as a company. The company is heading for a huge crash while at the same time they'll need to be planning how they are going to try and win back that favour and the build up to their new releases.

Yes financially they're winning but they're going to have to ride out this complete public corporate disaster. No one has faith in the company or the product anymore. They've damaged their public image so much this generation. Greed can kill anyone.

medman19d ago

Hulst is a disaster......

blacktiger19d ago

He would've done the same thing and fire Jim Ryan and Shuhei would be the villain. Why?
Because Elite creates the narrative and distraction for gamers, users and citizens.

Outside_ofthe_Box20d ago

More confirmation that Jim Ryan is the culprit for what has happened to Sony. Hulst needs to go too. What sucks is that a lot of the good top heads at Sony are no longer there. I wish that guys that were forced out prematurely by Dumbo Jimbo like Shuhei and Layden came back.

robtion19d ago

Yep. Yoshida was responsible for bringing one of the best games of this generation to playstation (Stellar Blade). He is an actual gamer and is in touch with what gamers want (creative, fun games, not GaaS and agenda pushing). He also seems like a genuinely nice guy if you watch some interviews. Of course they got rid of him.

darthv7220d ago

Makes you wonder if MS even thought about hiring him after Phil and Sarah were leaving. He certainly couldn't make their situation any worse.

Agent7520d ago

Microflop. After Windows XP and Xbox 360, it all went floppy.

S2Killinit20d ago

Floppy 😆
No pun intended

badz14920d ago

Yoshida for President! Jim Ryan was and always be a hack! Sony should get Shu back

Lightning7720d ago

All the gamer/consumer lead heads are gone across PS and Xbox. shuhei gone phil's gone (questionable) but gone. The future of gaming is somewhat uncertain across the board.
