Countering the illogical rabid xbox fanboys since 2001

It's not shocking, we all knew IGN wouldn't pick a PS3 title even though there were many better than Bioshock. The general rule these last few years for website biased towards the 360, is to pick a multiplatform title for these type of awards, since the 360 has no standout exclusives that aren't more of the same.

PS3 - No 5
Wii - No 12
360 - No 17

For the record:

Nominees hardware accessories:
- Kinect
- PlayStation Move
- Cyborg RAT 7
- Instruments from Rock Band 3

Yes, it openly beat out Kinect. Microsoft has little sway on the European media, so they can't cover the truth there.

Yes, it does say a lot. The media isn't covering Kinect much for a reason, it doesn't work well.

This list is terrible.

These are the clear big hitters, those that push the envelope and actually broaden the industry rather than making more of the same:

Ubisoft Montreal
Bioware Edmonton
Blizzard Entertainment
Guerilla Games
Naughty Dog
Sony Santa Monica
Polyphony Digital
Zipper Interactive
Capcom
Konami

Microsoft doesn't need a creative director. They haven't had an original idea in all their history.

Agreed, they just don't have the games to show up to more than one show.

I bet it's not in the PS3 version.

Shitty developer.

Nice, someone disagreed with plain specifications of the unit.

I bet you were crying when you clicked the button kid.

Not likely. There is a large casual market attached to the Playstation name. See PS2 expected to pass 150 million units sold in its lifetime. Half of which are casual players.

Playstation offers a variety of games and game types. Microsoft does not have that. Their casual titles look like someone sat down with the Wii and EyeToy and tried to copy them. No innovation. They also abandoned their hardcore audience altogether with Kinect, to the point where even non-Kinect titles ...

Fact: Kinect can only support 2 full body skeletal meshes at once.

Aside from how it cannot detect open or closed hands, although a "full body" mesh is limited with the Kinect, not tracking the full mesh essentially means the game can only track you bobbing around like an idiot, since a 4 player game would mean half the joints being tracked than needed for the full body. Any game that would support 3+ players would involve the worst gameplay ever imaginable, things ...

So according to this Fable 3 isn't exclusive.

What "exclusives" does that leave on the 360? Not trolling, just curious...

Halo: Reach
Gears of War 3

I really don't know any other big ones... I'd say Forza, but that Kinect game was pretty brutal.

Microsoft is going to have a hard time expanding their market, when all they have that is noteworthy are 2 games in which their fanbase are already owner...

The camera at least stops shaking very soon after the video starts. It's not that bad, easily followed.

The video trailers shown can be easily seen elsewhere, I just watched it for the show itself.

Thanks,

Why would that change? This is not like what happened with FF13, where Microsoft paid to get the game (a large amount) and paid to keep both versions as close as possible.

This was the opposite. Microsoft paid to pretend this was an exclusive title, although secretly they were just lying for a year to their sheep who thought it was exclusive. Now that the year is up, Bioware is bringing the game to the PS3. This doesn't change any of their plans, they have known about thi...

And you didn't read the first comment did you? It completely proves why the article is false.

"I LOVED Mass Effect 2 before, but now it's mediocre and not as good as the first elevator simulator!"

Hypocrisy? Riiiiiight.............

What the hell... VIII was far from the worst. Stop being an idiot.

13 was close to the worst, no matter what platform it was on. XI was on the 360, getting XIII on the 360 wasn't as big a deal as you'd like it to be.

I thought the exact same thing, this trailer screamed Left4Dead to me. That's far from a bad thing. I thought L4D offered a few hours of gameplay that was worthwhile (I never played story), unfortunately the graphics were terrible, there was absolutely no immersion, and the combat needed a lot of fine tuning. I think Insomniac will capture all the positives of L4D and nail all the things they missed, and best of all, in a Next Gen engine L4D never had.

Obviously the compa...

This is embarrassing. When you create a PC game and place it on both consoles like they have, the PS3 performs twice as fast immediately. I've had this happen with 4 games I worked on.

Unfortunately you are left with nothing else to do but focus your optimization on the 360 alone to make up for the lack of space and terrible processor. As a result, you leave the PS3 version on the shelf because it didn't need as much optimization.

In the end you have ...

Unfortunately the answer was right in front of your face, but you missed it Quickedie.

The game is not finished, and the disc is not a final retail disc, it is a low-grade copy that probably isn't even running off a Blu-ray. At this stage of development they are probably shipping builds to shows on a thumbstick emulating a blu-ray drive.

This minor issue probably isn't even an issue on the retail format, as you described you've seen this same issu...
