You're right..
Finally, 3rd party devs are squeezing power from PS3, while 360 can't go much further. It'll be fun seeing games in 2008 and 2009, when the devs realize the true power of PS3, and 360 is left in the dust. Not to mention the advantage of a Hard drive and Bluray player in every box.
No mods, no kb/m support, less maps on UT3. No HOME, you guys are getting ripped for every little thing(money for freaking wallpapers? Us PSN users get em for free), no dedicated servers, yet you PAY for online!!
But I just said screw it, forget CoD4, Im buying both of these. HAZE has some interesting elements in it, which allures me into it, and UT is just freaking addictive, so thats a must-buy.
Darkiewonder is scared PSN is going to soon crush XBL, so he tries to downplay it and spin it, kind of like all the scared MS reps.
The power is in the box, now all we need is time...
PSN is clearly behing XBL as of right now, but its free! Sony is proving they can match(even beat) what XBL has like background downloading, lag free multiplayer, friends list, achievements and more, but then add their own amazing innovations like HOME, PSP-PS3 remote play, and more. Plus don't forget, its all free!
I played the demo on my brother's 360, and its really made me draw away attention from my PS3 and onto his 360. Ill probably get it on PC, but I hate using keyboard and mouse, so I hope they port it to PS3 later(Im not paying $400cdn for 1 game). Even with the amazing AAA titles coming out on PS3 this year(UT3, HAZE, RaC, Uncharted, Socom, Warhawk, etc.) I still think Bioshock will use up a lot of my time.
Heavenly Sword, MGS4, Killzone 2, Resistance, Warhawk and many more are games with exceptional AI on PS3, yet some idiotic developers who are creating a game EXCLUSIVE for 360 are saying it sucks. Its probably all part of their marketing to hype up the game, I mean...Who the hell cares about Naruto?
I'll be picking this game up day 1 :)

"Satchell says there are currently more than 7.1 million Xbox Live users and, more surprisingly, those users have conducted more than 25 million downloads on Xbox 360. "
Where does it say only XBLA??
Cause before you couldnt afford a PS3, now you cant afford this bundle, so you're going to try to spin it around? XBOX 360 is a barebone console, and even with the HD DVD player, its still missing wifi, free online and more, but costs $100 more than the PLAYSTATION 3.
P.S. What do you mean it was selling like @ss?
1. @SS sells REALLY well(playboy)
2. PS3 is murdering 360 sales even after the price drop(see vgcharts or amazon)
$100 for wifi. Oh yeah, dont forget another $50 for LIVE.
Till they list specifically the Falcon 360's and then the HD DVD 360's/
Bluray and PS3 FTW!
I really never thought Microsoft would find ANOTHER way to SCREW existing 360 users.
1. Say larger hdd isnt necessary, then release one.
2. Say 1080p is useless this gen, then release it.
3. Say HDMI looks the same as component, then release it to all new consoles.
4. Say HD DVD is useless for games, and are soon going to be releasing an add on for it!!
The first day I got my PS3 I said : THIS IS LIVING
...
Rockstar = GREAT, HIGH QUALITY GAMES
Sony's 1st party studios = GREAT, HIGH QUALITY GAMES
Don't be mad because its a PS3 exclusive this year. Watch, next year you'll be going OMGHAZEROCKS, just because its on your console.
Dont hate the game, hate the console ;)
I hope that its true, with in-game XMB ofcourse.
Sony wouldn't release both on the same day. They are a business, and it wouldn't make sense to release 2 AAA titles on the same day, because it could interfere with sales.
Its different you XBOT. Bioshock developer was quoted with Gamepro saying that they are only focusing on XBOX 360 and Windows right now, but that's basically saying it may be a timed exclusive. Konami had their doubts at first, but then came out and announced it was an exclusive at E3 and then Sony's Peter Dille stated to Gamasutra that they signed an exclusive deal with Konami to bring MGS4 EXCLUSIVE. Even Peter Moore said MGS4 is PS3 exclusive, to Kotaku. Ever noticed how no one from MS eve...
THe trailers look awesome, and my brother(who lives elsewhere) can't stop bragging about the demo, and the reviews are all around 10.0, but I can't believe it got such a high score without multiplayer. Would it be so hard to add multiplayer? Multiplayer adds MAX replay value for me, and I usually dont buy games without multiplayer on nexgen consoles.
