What would they have to be desperate about? L4D sales are solid.
It is quite possible that the cost of porting the game to the 360, in both man-hours and the slowing down of OTHER projects, simply isn't worth it to them. Especially since it's pretty clear that they don't have any PS3 developers on staff.
Take it from me as a software engineer myself - it is not easy to switch to a new platform. It takes training, and training costs money, since you're essentially paying employees to be idle while it's done. You can hire new people who know ...
It must be, because N4G long because N4KZ2, and every article must, in some way, have something to do with KZ2. Didn't you know?
Seriously, keep that crap out of the Gamer Zone. This article has nothing to do with the PS3, and no one wants to read your copy-paste PS3 exclusive list that every Sony fanboy on the internet likes to use that is probably in a global text file hosted by the SDF.
This great news for Australian gamers who like great games. Get over it.
In other words, you're made because it's not on the PS3.
Got it.
Can you explain why it DOESN'T have polish or attention to detail?
Polish - there are very few bugs. Of course it has some - any software ever made does - but for the most part it is an incredibly polished experience. What they have there, works well. Which is what polished MEANS. I'd expect no different from Valve.
Attention to detail - this harder to "prove" one way or the other, but I will say the world is incredibly immersive. Notice the scribbles ...
Sorry, but no.

Damn, I'll have to wait til I'm at home to watch. Curse my job's internet filter!
MGS4 did certainly move systems, but, I still don't think it moved enough to be called a killer app:
http://www.gamespot.com/new...
It doubled sales for the month it came out from 200k to 400k, but by the second half of the year, the 360 was outselling it again.
I'm talking about something that potentially turns the tide of a console war forever - not for a couple of months.
If I don't already have a PS3 by the time this game comes out, I think I'll be grabbing one on release day.
Maybe I'll get lucky and there will be a GoW3 bundle. That would be *delicious*.
@1.1:
I don't think that quote is necessarily wrong, but it is misleading. I define "killer app" as a game that causes a large number of systems being sold. As great as MGS4 and LGB are, they didn't move quite enough systems by themselves to really be defi...
Come on man, seriously?
Just because they're adding MORE to the game does not make the original game incomplete. I probably spent more time playing Fallout 3 alone than I spent playing most other games COMBINED this year. I KNOW I sunk at least 50 hours into it.
It's a huge game - easily bigger than anything since, and including, Oblivion. Just because they're adding a few more places doesn't make the PS3 version any less complete. If you paid $60 for Fallout 3, ...
Only on N4G do people care solely about which games happen to be "exclusives" and therefore assume a console has no games coming out in a given year just because it has few EXCLUSIVES coming out.
Many, many AAA games these days are multi-platform games. And right now, the 360 is simply the cheaper option to play those multi-platform games, and runs them just as well as the PS3 does. This is a big difference from last generation where a majority of AAA games were PS2 e...
Yeah! What do you mean "awesome"!? How dare you be an XBox fan on N4G? Your kind is not welcome here! Differing opinions are for losers and communists!
The fact that hardware solid increased from last week is irrelevant unless it's the PS3 that's succeeding!! IF SONY CAN'T BE FIRST THEN WHO CARES ABOUT THE SUCCESS OF THE REST OF THE MARKETPLACE?!
PM me when your math skills are above the 3rd grade level. Maybe then you'll be worth having a discussion with.
Your timeframe is incredibly off. The PS3 won't have been three years old until November of this year. Halo 3 was released a little under two years after the 360's release. Not three years.
Math is HARD:
360 Release Date: 11/22/2005
Halo 3 Release Date: 9/25/2007
Time difference: 22 months
PS3 Release Date: 11/11/2006
KZ2 Release Date: 2/26/2009
Time difference: 27 months

I use Wii Fit mostly to keep track of my weight with a very reliable scale. Other than that, it doesn't get much use anymore.
That being said, I actually find Wii Tennis can be pretty damn good exercise, if you play it right. Sitting on the couch or standing up and just swinging is not exercise.
Running around your entire living room, while perhaps making you look like a bit of an idiot, I've found is pretty effective - or so the 8 pounds I've lost in the last mont...
It always makes me happy to see creative/unique games succeed.
The car metaphor, in general, is silly.
Consoles live and die by the quality and quantity of the games that are released for them. No more, no less. As long as 360 games exist that can match the fun-factor of the PS3, then the 360 isn't going anywhere.
The car metaphor would only work if specific cars could only use specific types of gas.
"I can't wait til the exclusive Civic gas comes out this year! Long live LittleBigPetrolium EX."
Since when is gaming or the so-called 'console war' about the superior hardware?
Gaming is about the superior games, no matter what platform they are on, be it PS3, 360, or yes, even the Wii sometimes.
The PS1 and PS2 were not the best hardware of their generation, but they won their respective 'console wars' soundly. Why? Because they had the best games.
It's ALWAYS been about the games, not who has the most powerful box for them to run on. That's why...
I'm kinda sick of the redesigns to be honest. This would be what - the 4th one?
Give me the PSP2 with backwards compatibility, please.
