Wow. That is some nice fantasy you have there. All of those blunders you state that Sony committed, okay, in 2006. In 2008, those blunders are not so obvious anymore.

Poor development tools? It really depends on who you talk to. I'm not saying that the PS3 is easy to develop for just that it seems the most vocal haters of it are usually PC developers who like the 360 because it's a dumbed down PC internally.

High price point? Maybe, but the PS3 is still outsellin...

And all of that is due to MS releasing the 360 a year earlier. It's kind of sad that your messiah console was outsold by a device most people on this site don't even consider a next-gen console. The better graphics and games argument is also due to being out a year early and same with the RPGs. Game companies exist to make money not satisfy fanboy delusions. So, basically the only advantage the 360 had was a headstart which is slowly becoming it's biggest liability.

How is spending your own money to find out whether or not you like something better than being a "sheep"? So if someone tells you sh1t tastes like sh1t, you'll eat some for yourself instead of taking their word for it? Professional reviewers are paid to give their opinions about games. Enough people read or watch those reviews to keep them in business. If you don't like the reviewer or think they are biased, don't read their reviews. Problem solved.

EDIT: There is a ...

Are you sure you mean button mashing for GOW? Yeah you can kind of force your way thorugh with button mashing, but there are combos to learn that make the game much easier and much more enjoyable. It's like a fighting game, yeah you can mash buttons and win sometimes, but to get really good you have to learn combos. And besides, every game is a button masher if you think about it.

Exactly. 360 fans can brag all they want about GTA4 DLC, but the fact still remains that it won't be worth 50 million and there will always be more exclusives on the PS3.

It's funny how my comment got deleted yet others get a free pass. N4G FTL.

I'm not defensive. it's just annoying having to read you write the same damn thing every post. Come up with a different argument please. I'll even help you out.

The open zone is the other way. But keep saying the same thing every time. Really. One day we'll believe you. I swear.

EDIT: No you haven't hit nerve. At least not how you think. If you came up with something better every time you posted, we could have a civilized debate. However your whole argument is that PS3 fans are jealous and that's why they are making this out to be not a big deal. Some might be. Or it could just be that there are more interesting games out there than goin...

How isn't GTA, after you beat it, not repetetive? You have to complete almost all the missions this time to reach the end and how many times can you really go bowling or play darts or drive drunk or just go on a killing spree before it gets old? The DLC might be cool or it just might be a huge waste of money.

EDIT: @etownone below: Whatever you say dude. It's a slap in the face to playstation fans. Just like MS killing the original XBOX is a slap in the face to XBOX fans or not...

Wow. Isn't this what MS has been claiming for months and we haven't seen any proof of anything at all. So pardon me if I think this is a bunch of posturing on MS's part until they actually show what they paid 50 million for.

EDIT: So MS hasn't been talking about how they are the most awesome fvckers on the planet for having EXCLUSIVE DLC for GTA4 since last E3? They haven't been claiming that the DLC would be huge expansions similar to VC and SA? Or maybe I missed all the vide...

In other news: Who cares? This isn't that surprising.

That lineup isn't much to brag about. This is where Sony has a huge advantage simply because they own so many development studios and MS doesn't. Sony will always have more exclusives due to sheer numbers. The only way MS can compete with exclusives is by buying them. I don't necessarily mean going to devlopers and paying money to keep it on one platform but MS will have to help pay for the game. Developers need to make back their money and going multiplatform is the only way to do it. Third-...

And I call that TeeJay will lose at least one bubble for that comment. Not that I care either way, just I know how people can't stand differing opinions. Game looks interesting.

This guy is funny. It's almost like he thinks it's a movie or a song or a book that you don't like a first and that if you just keep at it, suddenly you'll understand and love it and name your first child after him. The only real difference is that movies, music, and books are passive, all you have to do is pretty much pay attention. Games require effort. And no one likes feeling incompetent because of a sh1tty.. I mean, innovative control scheme. Telling people they just don't get it and tha...

Wow then your brother must be one unlucky bastard, because I've never had one lose sync or anyone else's either. It could just be interference in the environment.

The truly sad thing is that people actually think that: 1) There is actually privacy outside your own mind; 2) That you have a right to privacy. Anyone who can show me a right to privacy is either mistaken or just foolish. Also, in other news, the sky is blue, grass is green, water is wet. I know, these tidbits are just as shocking as a business trying to make money off of people.

I think he means that since other forms of entertainment can give social commentary like film, books, TV, etc. he wants games to do it as well. It can be done, but obviously not by him.

Isn't this pretty much what the Lair team did after everyone kicked the sh1t out of it because of bad controls? "You don't like it? You just don't get it. It's the greatest game in the world and you're too stupid to understand it and why it's so great." Too Human died because it was in development for too long, the hype behind it was ridiculous, oh and from what a lot of people are saying, the game is just not good.

Nice try. OPM has been gone for almost two years and he has only recently come back to 1up. And so he likes the PS3, that doesn't mean that as a professional journalist he can be objective when reviewing a 360 game. That's why they are called professionals and they work for legitimate companies instead of fanboys posting on a forum.
