Game Console Report Card -- Fall 2007 edition

A new school year is creeping ever closer, and it's time for the editors of GamePro to grade the year in gaming.

Sure enough, as a teacher, they would not do good!!!!

For the 360: B+ B- A A C D- A- Average B+ (That's probably about right)

For the PS3: C+ C- B- A C+ A+ A Average C So they give one C- with 3 A, one b and two C+, yet average comes out C!!!!!! That must have been a really, really heavy C- to bring the average soooooo low!

You see that, you don't even have to go any further. The teacher get a F!!!!

Danega_Sciphor6903d ago

heroman7116903d ago (Edited 6903d ago )

i wouldnt say october and i wouldnt give the ps3 the kinda rating u just gave it right now. I would games it a " B " for games about to come but not A cause they dont have games now, online B cause its fun even though it dosent have everything xbl has, innovation c cause there isnt anything innovative bout it like the wii, design and graphics A cause they are awsome graphics even if the developors dont get it right, Price a D cause even though its 500 it is still way to expesive. over all B -

i love seeing xbox fanatics (see i choose my words carefully, i respect xbox gamers) rushing out this "report card" BS before Warhawk's August release date, Warhawk, Lair, and Heavenly sword all due out within 2.5 weeks of each other. They can't really complain about "No games".

And they better rush this report out because the next firmware is around the corner and they can't complain about "no unified friendlist, or in game XMB" anymore.

All of the PS3's problems (games, online, rumbleless, price) can being solved, but some of the other console's problem.. Wii graphic power, Xbox reliability issue are here to stay for the rest of the system's life time (althought i do think they will revamp the xbox soon to make it better but the 11 million exiting ones that are alrady in the pipelines are...here to stay).

I hope i dont sound too much like a fanboy, but i just hate when ppl trash the PS3, because its build so well and so much functionality. It's very nice piece of tech equipment, no different than my high end PC or my HDTV.

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.

solideagle70d 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

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

Crazy to think the WII is to the Switch 2, as the NES was to the WII back then. 20 Year difference.

My wife asks me to bust it out (heh) everyone once in a while to play bowling and tennis with the kids. There was a ton of slop on it but some good stuff as well.

Smellsforfree76d ago

Wii was great but boy howdy did it cause Microsoft to go on a dark walk with the Kinect and the disastrous XBox One launch that they arguably never recovered from.

Loktai76d ago

Not nostalgic for me.. I was there.. anyone who wasnt a little kid realized it was a gamecube with shit tacked onto it, it was the "joke" system and was well below even the switch in terms of comparing it to the latest machines at the time. The machine was well loved by young people and "casual gamers" who now remember it 20 years on, or in most cases more of its sales came in the 15-20 years ago range not right at launch- but again its not nostalgic for people who were "gamers" then really, just for those who ended up with one in their house, the games , graphics, interface and online features were archaic already in 2006.
