Of course Bioshock 2 is going to be a timed exclusive to the PS3 because Sony has tons of money to buy time exclusives. Sony isn't taking a loss on PS3's currently so they have money to waste. Forget all the investers that they are try so hard to keep happy. Despite the fact that many companies such as Sony are struggling due the economy, they are going to waste money buying a BioShock 2 Timed Exclusive.
Plus I'm sure that the 90k U.S. PS3 users that bought the original Bioshock...
Poor games did Factor 5 and Free Radical in. However, I can't help but feel that the games were released half finished. I think these projects could have been better on Xbox 360 because they wouldn't have had to spend extra time researching and trouble shooting the PS3 hardware. That extra time could have been used developing the actual games. We all know that games developed on the PS3 takes months longer due to the complexity of the architecture and development difficulties that plagued man...

This is the third Christmas for Playstation 3 and forth Christmas for Xbox 360. We are well into the life cycle of the systems. I'm not saying any system is a failure but I don't see things changing too much in the future.

I noticed the bullet holes in the wood on the PS3 version as well. So I decided to look into it by simply booting up the demo and going to the same area on the Xbox 360. My first couple of shots didn't produce bullet holes. Then I moved ever so slightly and tried again and it produced bullet holes. So I guess you have to be at the right angle to make those. I'd imagine it's the same for the PS3 Demo.
I don't think Sony fully comprehended the undertaking that would be "home". I think they prematurely released the beta to appease clamoring PS3 fans and answer The New Xbox Experience. I think the hype Sony created is what's causing this disappointment.
Take it with a grain of salt. In another year from now, it might actually be fun.
Why hype an announcement if you're not going to Announce a game! Garbage!
Sold!
OUCH! Famitsu is usually pretty forgiving. However, I'd wait to see how it's received by the gaming community.

Calm down, the PS3 is still the 3rd best selling Next Generation console world wide. Nothing has changed.
This Shiznit cracks me up. Playstation 3 has never been as acclaimed as it's competition in any department. It's a good Blu-Ray player. There you go. You make PS3 Fans seem like big cry babies.
No surprise. Not only does Xbox Live Arcade have the best content, it has an enormous library of games to choose from. However, Wii's right there as well.
They won't. With time exclusives, there's usually a 6 month window in which it can't be announced for another console. That's if it's a contractual arrangement. If Square Enix is making it exclusive by they're own admission, you might her an announcement soon.
Who knows, it might only be released in Japan if it's ever released for PS3. Things like that have been know to happen. BTW, can you name a single Tri-Ace game that was made multiplatform or was ported to another system? I ...
Blue Dragon helped sell 200k Xbox 360's in Japan. It was a major achievement for the time. Blue Dragon went on to sell 520k units world wide. Blue Dragon was the very first JRPG on an Xbox system. So it's not a bad feat.
Yeah, they come out with Xbox 360 hand me downs a year later on PS3 and they do usually come with extras but they are usually full price too; where as, they are bargin bin prices on Xbox 360. Sometimes you can download the PS3 extra content off of Xbox Live or they come out with a better version on Xbox 360 such as Lost Planet Colones which was $10 less than the PS3 version and had the extra content.
Bragging is worthless unless you buy the game. That's the problem with fanboys, they'll praise their system for having an exclusive but then they don't buy it when it comes out.
Well, I'm not impressed but I wouldn't judge a game based on a 17 second clip. The PS2 Gods of War really pushed the hardware. Lets see how it turns out when it's closer to release.
@MNicholas
PS3 is like running a refrigerator. Your yearly electric bill will cost you more that the $50 it cost to subscribe to Xbox live. That's been well documented.
@Mozilla89
I honestly believe the PS3 is a fantastic deal and it is a greater value that Xbox 360. But for people that don't need Blu-Ray or Wifi, Xbox 360 is a fantastic deal as well. They both have a fantastic catalog of game. I could very easily argue in favor of the PS3. As you've seen, I've favorable to Xbox 360.
@darkpower
I will acknowledge you. These are the issues I've found with the PSN that I don't have to put up with on Xbox Live. I know that...
@Mozilla89
Let me say that I do have a Playstation 3. And I'll tell you why I believe Xbox Live is light years ahead of it.
1.) Updating... There's only 2 major updates a year on Xbox Live and they only take a few minutes to update. Updates don't require installation. It does it for you. Playstation Network, there's no less than 2 firmware updates a month. They don't just patch the current update, they make you download the entire program and install it manually. In ...
They should have released Suikoden II. That's the one that everyone cares about.
