For all those saying Edge is not biased: here are the cold numbers.

Exclusive full retail games on both ps3 and x360 amongst 100 best metacritic scores. PS3 has 15 and xbox 13 exclusives.
I will compare Metacritic average score with Edge score.

Games favoured by Edge (Edge > Metacritic by more than 5%):
360 3: Halo3, PGR3, HaloODST
PS3 1: LitlleBigPlanet

Games roughly same score Edge is somewhere between -5%/+5% Metacritic
PS3 ...

You have to reinstall Home (Home Icon/Triangle/Delete). At some point you will be given the choice of a 3, 5, 8 or 12 GB install (original install was 3 GB). According to some users, selecting 8 GB eliminates the problem. Others simply reinstall and select 3 GB and they are fine.

Not so fast. I hope everybody understands that if they implement BR right from the box, from now on EVERY 360 sold would bring a few bucks to BR corporation (and so to Sony).
So, if we start with some general hypotethical numbers we have:
360 w/ BR = 300 $/EUR
PS3 = 300 $/EUR
Consoles sold yearly (both PS3 and 360)= 8 milion

If, BR royalty payed = 10
Yearly royalties = 80 milion
Needed number of yearly 360s sold instead of PS3 due to BR impleme...

"Ps3 fans truly got no life, and no games to play, that they come and mess in this article."
So, do you have games to play or not?

"dont want, dont need blu ray, got best gfx on my pc, coming off dvd, and the best console experience on the 360, also coming from dvd.
Il skip Blu ray, and move on straight to on Demand and flash media."
uffffff, it's tiresome just to try to answer this.

Unless you are a stubborn masochist, you will ...

Better graphics? Unfortunately when you play the game you won't be able to see through your greasy fingers.

Let me say:

Irrelevant poster wants attention, bashes Sony in every thread to try to convince someone to join him in the Sony Haters Force. :/ BS user.

You're so biased that you look like a MS employee spamming forums using canonical MS behaviour.

^^ wow just wow
This is a GT thread, but i just clicked on the links you posted, and feel the need to comment.
Probably Forza 3 is fantastic in it's community aspects, livery editor and so on. But i can only say it looks massively underwhelming compared to what Turn 10 and some fanboys wanted us to believe in terms of graphics and immersion.
The driver in the beginning of the video is a joke.
The car model in the 3 short shots is much better than in game, dissolving th...

Unique locations: 36
Tracks (including variations): 45
Tracks (including vatiations + inverted): 72

More specifically:
World circuits 10 locations, 16 tr+var, 16 tr+v+i
Urban circuits 8 locations, 8 tr+var, 15 tr+v+i
Original circuits 12 locations, 13 tr+var, 25 tr+v+i
Dirt/Snow circuits 6 locations, 8 tr+var, 16 tr+v+i

Some variations are big, some are small. Most inverted tracks play very different from original. Some inverted tr...

IDNMH have you seen GTpsp with your own eyes? Have you played with your own hands?
As i said Forza and GTPsp can't be compared. It's rather silly. But clearly what the video really does is claim GTPsp as a fantastic looking game. It's not saying Forza looks like a handheld. You fail to realize this simple fact.

I'll give you an idea: check games on other platforms (particularly those beginning with letter S) repeating to yourself
it's on xbox it's on xbox it's on xbox...

Compare it to Forza3 or any other console game is a bit ridiculous, but it helps to put in perspective that is a gorgeous looking game for a handheld. I tell you most other racers on psp (or any handheld lol) cant hold a candle to gtpsp.
Yes, the game looks as good as this video. Not only in replays but also while playing. Bumper camera is exactly the same except for the fact that while driving you can't remove the hud. For myself I prefere cokpit camera: you loose some detail on the ot...

I'm a long time console user. Mainly Playstation but also Dreamcast. I never in my life worried about when a game was going to be published, how were it's sales, how good or bad were Nintendo, how did it compare to other games. There was a time when i was a “pure” gamer. I enjoyed the games i bought, commented with friends and read some magazines. That was all.

Now, the industry has grown, the internet has amplified any opinion, budgets are immense, consoles are much more complex...

IMO there are 3 key elements to gaming and immersion:

Flow of the game (gameplay, story, control or what you like)
Graphics
Sound

Each one of these if badly done can ruin the immersion that the others would bring. If all of these are done correctly, but then you have one element which is outstanding, it will exponentially help improve the overall result.
When comparing Crysis to U2 i think everybody seems to forget this important facet. U2 is coming...

It's something like:

Review of Mozart Divertimento KV138
+
some memorable melodies
harmonically perfect
nice instrumentation
-
not the same as a symphony

Final Score: 6/10

(for musically unaware, divertimento is a form intended to be "light" in it's structure and more oriented to sketch melodies. Mozart wrote tons of them as he did symphonies, masses, etc...)

Because so many people wants this feature, some gtplanet.com users are preparing something as a career mode.
Basically, you should have some autodiscipline and stick to some specific races and cars bought before moving on the next phase.
If you want to have fun, and challenge yourself, you can.

Everybody face it. If this game was on DS, iPhone or even more, on zune, praise would be high and scores at least in the 9+ zone.
I am tired of almost every psp review out there judging games by console standards.
I own psp since day one (as well as ps3), have 50+ games on it and many many times i've been able to have unique experiences, because these are PORTABLE experiences. And i think GT5 will be no exception: big amount of happy gaming hours spent on it.

Being spanish i regularly check this web. It's one of the bigs in Spain and they deserve being checked as they show no big bias. Before clicking i was convinced their score would be 9,5. This is how they handle great ps3 exclusives. Avoid 10 at all cost (which they don't on other platforms) because they have lots of 360 readers that whine every good ps3 review. So, knowing Meristation, i know their 9,5 truly means 10.
