With trophies i can see the gold and platiniums and quickly have an idea of how hardcore the friend is.

With achivements i have no clue.

Trophy wins for me.

Either im a complusive buyer or you are missing out.

are u refering to me?
I dont get your point, my post is only a realist take on the issue at hand. You think im taking this into Sonys positive? Not really, but if my PS3 works poorly within a month i would make sure Sony responds to their warranty on their pricey product instead of complaining in this site.

i do prefer my PS3 a lot to the 360, but i agree with you.

No failure problems, but it does freezes plenty. Nothing that impares gaming, just a minor inconvenience. The major part of time it works great.
At least this is my experience in the year i had my PS3

Edit:

dude take it easy.
If Sony told u your console may need repairs, use the warranty, there is always a minimal failure rate with electronics. Use the warranty, get it working rig...

True that

I traded plenty of old games and not so old ones ($20 for CoD 4 and $20 for Gears 2 are preety good deals) using game stop offers and got up to a $154 in total for a bunch of PS2 games and some current gen games. That is awesome for getting new games in this economy.

The $60 tag for some of the crap that is release is just asking for poor sales. Average $40, AAA (big budget games) $60

There are way too many games that dont deserve the $60 tag.

But if it is from Sony, i trust them. Al least they fully support what they release, like the beta for example. I will also support them, they deliver with the PS3 and i am grateful. It may sound blind fanboyism, but that is the way it is, it has Nothing to do with the competition.

i will wait till it sells reasonable numbers. I dont want to be alone on those beautiful maps

I find the MP really intense and quiet hard (not in a bad way). The intensity level of 30 shooters action is always high. When i play the 30 minutes sessions i feel tired, like i have been out doing something. I think the experience is unique and worth getting the game.

Edit

Yeah, how great is it to have this kind of unique game. No need to compare it, is just too different from the herd. My blood is boiling for ...some.. KZ2... intense . MP

"GT is a great franchise but it doesn't hold a candle to the realism of Forza"

Said the Halo3 MLG PRO

Totally unbiased i presume

still is funny. i consider gaming a hobby, u calling it a life apart from your other life is funny.

Hidden gem is a game that is release and sells average over the years, but the game deserves better. Examples: Ico, Shadow of the Colossus, Heavenly Sword, Okami.

Forza was successful, hence it loses the hidden gem status. Getting recognition for a new IP was a great feat. Hopefully F3 will deliver where F2 fell short (way short).

your gaming life? LMAO

I also said this before:

Forza 1 made GT look like an arcade, GT5 makes Forza 2 look last gen.

Driving engine for Forza is based on numbers given by the manufacturer, which means turn 10 did no get within a 100 meters of the cars and have zero idea on how they drive, feel, sound etc. The physics are hardcore, but the data input is error prone, and like any math equation, if the data input is wrong the result will be wrong by defin...

thx for the info

Only applies for arcade, not for retail right?

Because it sells millions and millions and u are jealous.

only reason that comes to mind is MS fees, otherwise i dont get it

MS followers are always talking about sales and metacritic. Good news for 360, but rarely i read something like "This 360 game has better lighting, graphics , animations, more cars in race, or any technical achievement. Is all about sales and nothing about games. The 360 has millions of console more on the market than the PS3 and selling great. What the hell do you expect to happen when they release a major advertised game? sales millions, period.

I have said this many t...

Those who point at the realism of Forza just because cars break without ANY fidelity to the real cars specifics is misleading. All cars break the same way, most sound the same, the rear traction ones feel like they are build to make donuts on the parking lot. The customization is nice, but is NOT a definitive feature in a racing SIM. All those extras do not compensate for the weird physics in the cars, and the game does not look that much better than Forza one, which made a big impact in t...

Good thing MS followers have the metacritic and sales numbers to discuss about. When talking about the number of competitors in a race 8 vs 16, 30FPS vs 60 FPS, 720p vs 1080p, polygons per car, (Free online anyone?)etc nothing of this matters Because Metacritic scores a favor Forza 2. Hey whatever makes u happy, i will keep rocking GT 4 and GT5P with the logitech wheel with 900 degrees of rotation until GT5 arrives. Forza 3 with its multiple disk will be interesting, it reminds of GT 2 for ...

"When it drops it'll be the best system they ever launched."

Compared to what? the bar is not That high within MS

@ foxgod

do you belive the 360 is flawed due to lack of experience?
360's problems are due to negligence in MS quality control by going forward KNOWING that the design was flawed. Next xbox i dont think i will "Jump In" the volcano
