They probably want to play your PS3 because you're the only one who has a PS3, while they all play Xbox 360 already on a regular basis.
I know 2 people with PS3's. All my friend's and even just people I know but aren't really true friends have or want a Xbox 360.
Yea, online effects my decision with every multiplatform game I buy/rent. Exclusives don't matter because you can only play them on one console anyways.
hmmmm I've got a feeling you're saying that because you're a PS3 owner who doesn't actually own Xbox 360 or know what it's like to game on Xbox Live on a regular basis.
Microsoft was first, they did what they wanted because they had a choice and didn't need Bluray(and considering 360 gets the better version of a big majority of games...it seems Blu ray wasn't needed, or isn't now considering PS3's fortune's this generation)
Maybe it's Sony problem for using a format that will never become truly mainstream, giving PS3 mandatory installs, and a format that no developer is interested in taking advantage of.
Or even more practical, your...

"be able to deliver solid performant code for a AAA game engine"
Are people seriously upset over this? Has Bungie not earned to right to say this by now? Come on, get real people. Seems certain folks just have to complain in some way, this is Halo after all. Must be an unconscious reaction or something.
All their saying is they need someone who can help make a "top-of-the-line engine".
I can't wait for ODST. I'm really look forward to 4 player co-op through the first open world Halo title ever(though Halo isn't super linear when compared with other shooters anyways), the remake of Mid Ship from Halo 2 and then more than anything, Fire Fight mode. It will be so fun with Halo's gameplay.
But Halo: Reach, yea even though it's more than a year away...it's secretly my most anticipated title. I love Bungie games.
Alan Wake started as an open-world game, but is now more linear for the sake of story progression. Yet, you've said that you want players to feel like they are making their own choices. How will you accomplish this?
"Alan Wake is built from the ground up on open world technology, however this is not a sandbox game. In order to deliver a strong story driven experience we opted quite early on in the design process for a more linear structure which supports the story driven exp...
The PS3 line-up is looking pretty good IMO. But 6 months ago I thought it was going to be ALOT better. I really don't care for anything except Uncharted.
Yea because it came to PS3 later, I don't think I'd really take that over having played those games a year and a half ago.
"Then they reward him with better & exclusive stuff... "
like?
Come on now, this is no biggie...everyone will still be getting this game shortly, no worries. :)
"So are you talking JUST about sales, or hardware/software quality? "
Hes talking about everything, why wouldn't he be? Extreme Sony fanboys act like because Sony PS3 got 3-4 good Exclusives now...that Xbox 360 doesn't still have 300 more games than PS3. More AAA games...more DLC, more AA games. Comments like that are for someone trying to defend something. PS3 is still the console with less games and its a fact. PS3 doesn't have "more quality games", it has l...
haha Can't wait to see what MS is cooking up.
I play multiplats and Exclusives on 360 and Exclusives and Blu ray on PS3.
I have had PS3 since Christmas 2007 and got a 360 about 6 months ago, the difference in online gaming and game performance was enough to sway me as far as using 360 as my main console from now on. But PS3 still gets alot of play because it has good Exclusives too.
