There are just too many quality games coming out for 360 owners to play all of them. 2010 is definitely the best year for gaming since 2007.
Everyone who complains about GTA IV says it was too realistic, and that they focused too much on the story and not enough on adding side missions and activities.
Mafia II is even far more realistic. Cops go after you for speeding or running red lights, your car can run out of gas, and you die much easier just from crashing your car. And Mafia II has virtually no side missions whatsoever. The developers said that they put their priority on crafting the story over building a sa...
Total Pre-orders as of August 21
Halo: Reach: 1,255,006
Gran Turismo 5: 150,494
Arcade-style missions? No thanks. Sony really needs to spend some money on exclusive content for a game that doesn't end up being mediocre.
Remember Reach

If the 360 version looks startlingly weak, then I don't even want to know what the PS3 version looks like...
And Microsoft cares about their customers even more. We wanted the Final Fantasy and Metal Gear Solid franchises, and we wanted Grand Theft Auto the same day as PlayStation, and we got them.
If you're serious, then you hold the title as the only person in the world who seriously believes Move will outsell Kinect.
Halo is the only series that can get people who aren't even fans excited at every big release. It is the ultimate gamer's game. And it looks like it is going to break Modern Warfare 2's sales record on the 360, since it has now surpassed it in preorders.
How can I possibly enjoy my game when I know people on ANOTHER CONSOLE are playing it too? I shudder at the very thought.
I don't believe it will. Microsoft published the first game and if it was coming, they certainly would have announced it already. Obviously, they'd want PS3 owners to play the first game before the second. They added a new introduction to the PS3 version to introduce PS3 players to the series and what they missed out on. Or at least that's what I've heard...
The only thing creepier than that would be to see grass in the PS3 version.
And the 360 version would be the second best version. And the PS3 version would be...
Halo: Reach has more preorders than MW2 did at this point before its release. So Reach is on track to surpass MW2 for the 360's opening day sales, which are the biggest in history on any one console.
Over on the PS3 side of things, Black Ops for the PS3 has more preorders than GT5, and Fable III looks like it might sell more in its first week than GT5 in North America. Preorders don't tell the whole story, but they do give you some big clues on how the story will turn...
That would be nice, but wouldn't it be better to see an all new city never before in a GTA game? We haven't had that since 2004.
If Mass Effect did come to the PS3, it will suddenly be known as a "lost Xbox exclusive", even though the PS3 fanboys consistently denied that it was an Xbox exclusive.
It looks like the sequel to the best-looking game of 2008 is going to be the best-looking game of 2011. Hooray! Graphics are the only thing that matters. Screw gameplay!
What a flamebait title.
First of all, the supposed gap of 3.6 million was before the 360 slim launched. It had outsold the PS3 by about 700,000 units worldwide since then, which would put the gap back up to at least 4.3 million. But the actual sales gap was never 3.6 million. Sony clearly overshipped the PS3 in their last fiscal quarter, which can clearly be seen in this analysis:

"Jan-March 2010: According to Sony, PS3 shipped 2.2 million
During that time, PS3...
Just Cause 2's time is ridiculously inflated by all the repetitive stuff you have to do like blowing up towns that all look the same, as though they were copied and pasted across the whole map, and collecting thousands of resource cases just to unlock the next missions. If you counted just straight mission time, of which there are only 7 missions, the game would probably last 4 hours.
GTA IV should definitely fit somewhere into this list. FFS, there's an achievement f...
