the PS3 has 2 games that support 50 players or more. the 360 has 1. hardly worth making a big song and dance over, is it?

@Apocalypse Shadow: "5 years into 360's life and developers are still choosing to make limited player counts.....okay.... "

so why is Uncharted 2 only 5 vs 5 hey? why isnt it 256 players too?

epic lols at you.

" Standard dedicated servers for all major online game for lagfree LAN like online play "

how are those dedicated servers going for Uncharted 2? oh right, its P2P. its also 'only' 5 vs 5 multiplayer.

"Massive player counts thanks to dedicated servers. 40, 64, and even 256 player online games "

you say that like its a hardware thing that only the PS3 can do lol. Frontline: Fuels of War is 50 players online on the 36...

terrible decision, as the move implementation shown in the trailer isnt 1:1, its just waggle to follow the on-screen prompts. more content is better than waggle as an afterthought.

also, the heavily scripted nature of Heavy Rains 'gameplay' ensures that the Move implementation cant mimic your actions 1:1 as it would interfere with the narrative, so im not really seeing the need for Move support. Neither were Quantic Dreams apparently, until Sony forced their hand. <...

explain to me why the PS3 should be on the list though. its list of good first party exclusives is NOT enough, because frankly other consoles have had far better lists.

out of the list, these are the revolutionary things each console brought to the table:

1. NES:
- basically made video games how we know them today

2. PS2:
- movie playback as a standard feature in a game console
- graphics that werent just 'kiddy...

the N64 is on there because it was the first console to really give us big wide open 3D worlds. Mario 64 was absolutely astounding at the time, it was the first of its kind. sony tried to emulate that with Croc, and did so with pretty good success, but the PS just couldnt do what the N64 did.

the N64 also brought Rumble to consoles, along with analogue control. 2 things that sony then added to the PS after the fact. the N64 also brought 4 player multiplayer without having to ...

i loaded Home up again for the first time in probably 12 months, and was stuck with a whole lot of downloading to do. i see theyve finally stopped calling it a beta, thank the lord.

i dont like the new 'kiddy' menu look that theyve got going on. the whole premise of home was you take your avatar and walk it around the virtual world, looking at things and interacting. now its just a menu to choose a room from, have a look in there, quit back to the menu, then start aga...

@thehitman: you mean the PS2 with its faulty disc drives, and its MULTIPLE class action lawsuit losses for being faulty? or the PS with its flimsy-and-prone-to-warping laser eye rail?

oh no, you mean the 360 because its not made by sony. gotcha.

IMO the dreamcast should be WAY up that list, it was revolutionary. the 360 deserves a spot on the list because of its online integration, media player capabilities, and games list. the PS3, well it doesnt really dese...

@morganfell:

have you ever actually SEEN the japanese weekly sales? obviously not lol.

the PS3 has been out since November 2006 in Japan. that is 45 months. they have sold 5 million PS3 consoles in Japan since launch. so 5 million consoles divided by 45 months = about 111 000 a month, which equals about 27 000 a week.

the 360 has been out for 57 months in the US, selling 20 million consoles. thats 350 000 a month, and 87 000 a week. so what ...

@Ramzadel: "Skadoosh said it's not looking good for Sony, but how is that possible when they are kicking butt in Japan"

'kicking butt' in japan, while true, needs to be put in context.

in Japan, they have sold as many PS3s IN TOTAL as 360s are sold in America in any given 12 month period. there are just under 5 million PS3s sold in Japan, there are just under 20 million 360s sold in the US.

so yes, while Japan has roughl...

@onanie: read what we're talking about: technical prowess.

on a technical level, yes, wipeout HD is a better achievement than Uncharted 2.

WipeoutHD vs Uncharted 2
60fps vs 30fps
1280x1080 up to 1920x1080 variable resolution vs 1280 vs 720

im not saying wipeoutHD is a better game, moron. im just pointing out that on the technical side of things, Uncharted 2 is average.

@theKiller: "to think 360 managed to only sell 40k more than ps3 after slim version release is a surprise"

these numbers are for MAY. E3 was in June. June is the month AFTER may. the Slim 360 was announced at E3. do you see the problem with your statement?

@Active Reload : "Uncharted 2 is the only game out that I've seen actually look like the bullshots."

well it doesnt look like the bullshots, but whatever. everything in the officially released screenshots is in a higher res, has a higher LOD model, and has anti-aliasing out the wahzoo because of the fact that the 'screenshots' are rendered at something stupid like 3000x2000 and then downscaled to 1280x720 to give the appearance of 'in-game'.

eh, i had no problem with collectibles in Alan Wake. i dont question WHY youre collecting something - collectibles have been part of gaming since video games were invented.

in alan wakes case, i think they added to the game because they added risk. you KNOW that there will be a thermos/ammo cache/information sign/etc off in the dark in the forest.....but you know when you go there there will be Taken to fight. and when youve got 4 bullets left in your gun and only a flashligh...

GT5 is NOT confirmed to run in 720p in 3D. even the folks over at GTPlanet think its more than likely going to be running in 800 x 1470 (or 800x720 + 30 between images) as that is the resolution just below the amount of pixels in the 1280x1080 native resolution of GT5 in 2D.

Motorstorm 3D is NOT 720p either.
