Regardless of the haters, (Who prob. don't have either a ps3 or wii) SONY is ok. YES, I said that SONY IS OK! Sure, it cost a bit, but the quality calls for the price..and stop crying/hating, the price has already been lowered from the high launch date.
That is the ONLY ISSUE with the ps3, as many consumers do not want to pay the price. Everyone would like a 1080p Plasma, or LCD-HD, but most will need to wait until the prices go down. Not everyone can be like me and pay what I...
No, you did not include Viva Pinata in your post! Are you serious? Speaking of garbage games...why didn't you research the numbers for part 2?
For the record...Oblivion sold a lot better on the ps3. GT Prologue sold on par to Forza 2, a game that MS decided to GIVE AWAY with 360's. Prologue wasn't even the full game!!
Oh, and I see you put EA sports in another one of your post also. First of all, EA sports has football on lock...so of course they sold. However, y...
Tell N4G bloggers something we DON"T know! The Ps3 has not had a REAL price drop yet. Of course, especially with the economy, the Ps3 will not make up much ground...until the price goes down.
And this is not an excuse either. This system has more to offer (WIFI, FREE ONLINE, BLU RAY, and WEB BROWER) than it's competitors. Now, this does not mean that it is the best choice today, but come next summer...everyone will see the ps3 do exactly what the ps2 did.
360 BETTER...
Have to call you on your response because you didn't;t make a quality point. I'm not arguing your point on the sales of R2 and LBP (Although they both sold very well), however, are you really gonna try to match multi-platform games to exclusives?
Again, someone name QUALITY 360 exclusives of 2008...take your time, I'll wait. Just because LBP and R2 didn't sell like Gears or Halo3...does not mean that they were not great games. HANNAH MONTANA SELLS LIKE HOT CAKES...DO YOU HAVE H...
Figboy's post is how most educational people should approach their blogging skills.
A thesis, followed by the question/argument, with supporting body of the supporting facts/evidence. I don't care if FIGBOY is a superfan or not, his post is excellent! You see, this is all I (And other educated bloggers) ask....HAVE AN ARGUMENT, SUPPORT YOUR ARGUMENT, AND PROVIDE SENSIBLE EVIDENCE!
Hey dan_dufferin98, assume that your comments were not aimed at me. I didn't say any of the you referred to. All I am saying is that There are a few games that should help Ps3 do well against their competitors. My comments were designed to respond to the title of the post....not wait to attack other people's responses. I have NO beef with you, just want to let you and others know that I give respect to games, and platforms. I also criticize them as well, which is why this blogging this is fun...
Resistance 2 is a rally good game. However, it's NOT a triple A title. (I love Sony, but this is true) This game was hyped up to be "THAT" game, which really was not fair. R2 and KILLZONE2 should have switched places. It is KILLZONE2 that is the REAL system savior. (Hopefully)
I own this game and contrary to popular opinion, the single player campaign is really good. Online is sweet and this games has the "POP". However, it is no HALO 1, COD4, or GEARS 1 or ...
Although I love all games, it has been fun picking at the 360 crew. (For the record, I don't hate the games, just MS) Although I'm a loyal Playstation fan, I won't talk Ps3 CRAZY! Things are looking great for MS's Xbox 360.
Sony has gotten arrogant and sloppy, believing that anyone would be honored to work with them. (You know, Like Notre Dame and Michigan football) Sooner or later, the shine leaves. Sony needed to either come out firing with every big game...ASAP, OR make like...
The BR players are priced very well. However, the movies themselves are a bit expensive. I get mine from Amazon, but would like to ge them from stores. I think the prices shold stay at $23.99, which is what they are if you get them when they 1st drop at stores.
If you don't get them in that 2-4day window, they shoot up to the $29.99-$34.00 price range....and that is way too high! Retaliers will make their money, but ant the cream...just like the padding of the bill for DVD's. ...
360 is doing very well and no one can argue the facts. I have played the demo of KILLZONE2 and, from what I played...It is BEYOND ANYTHING OUT!! Yes, it appears to be a gears and halo killer....however, it was just a multiplayer demo. I remember the Killsone1 demo, it tricked me. It was no halo killer!
I am sick of the Gears2 and halo3 trash talk..ps3 is backed into a corner. I love blu ray movies, but we need that one game that says "BUY THIS PS3!" killzone2 HAS TO D...
ps3 fans can arguw to death, but the ps3 systems does not have that one "IT" game. KILLZONE2 could be that game! 360 fans can talk because they have gears2 and halo3...and ps3 only has haze and resistance to offer. (Pretty much the Big Ten Vs. the SEC in football).
As a loyal Ps3 fan, I must admit that the heat is on...and KILLZONE2 (With GOW3, later in 2009) is NEO from The Matrix! This has to be "the one" or, 360 fans will continue to have bragging rights...
MS isn't the only ones getting over, said the HDTV scam artist. I bought a nice 40 inch 120 Hz 1080p by samsung on Oct. 25th, for $1,249.00, NOW, it is on amazon and circuit city for $899.00!!! EVERYONE is trying to get paid while ripping consumers.
This is NOT a MS problem (Although it's fun hatin' on em), this greed is everywhere! If Ps3 goes down to $299.99 by Christmas..I'm gonna go off.
I'm sure that the game is just as good on the 360. However, the success of Drakes Fortune has many ps3 owners back on the adventure trail. Kinda like what Fable and Oblivion has done for the 360.
Even if KILLZON2 is a mega hit, the ps3 will never get respect as a mature shooter system. We can get on here and hate on each other, but it all comes down to what each of us prefer. I love blu ray movies, plaformers, multi plat. games, and adventure stuff. So, the ps3 is for ME. 360 ...
THESE are the 360's that should have come out at launch! Xbox fans get mad when RROD is brought up by SONY fans...and this is why. If MS would have launch a great working machine, with QUALITY parts, the amount of price drops on units would have be just as low as the ps3. (To make a good enough profit for share holders)
This is how MS gets down, and EVERYONE KNOWS IT TRUE! Those cheap fans, RROD, and expensive 20 gig HD is a rip off. If the system is so great...why perfect the ...
Now THIS is something that is OK to smash SONY over. The Ps3 should not be this high..here is an excellent oppertunity for SONY to show some love.
As a loyal SONY fan, this really upsets me. Have to eat crow, after all the "M$"jokes.
TheExodus, you left me no choice. First off, Casino Royal is a blu ray movie, with one of the best HD transfers since Transformers and I,Robot. (it still cost $29,99 in stores)Secondly, Ratchet and Clank got a add on to that game, this year...and I am sure you knew all of that.
I am not talking about the "cash cow" 160 gig Drakes bundle, THAT systems is worthless. (Does everyone hear my NON-BIAS words? Even against the ps3, which I own) Again, I am a non-bias speaker ...
How about posting this article AFTER Black Friday!! I mean, the ps3 will be packed with a copy of Casino Royal and Ratchet and Clank on this day. Also, gamestop/ebgames will have their annual buy 2 used games get 1 free deal going on. (Thats when I will get my copy of LBP and Bioshock). I think the sales will surprise those who are praying for SONY's down fall. (But SONY will bounce back up, like round ball!)
SONY was asking a lot for R2 to go head up with Gears2. The score is ok, there honestly could have been some upgrades to the co-op storylines/multiplayer. Don't get me wrong...I LOVE THIS GAME!! However, you just can't give 9.7 and above to any and everything. MGS4, LBP, Gears2, all deserved their scores. Motorstom2, Fable2, Pure, Left 4 Dead, and R2 were all excellent reasons to buy a system, but not GOLDEN standard. (And that's alright...they were great Scottie Pippen's to the Michael Jorda...
I never heard of EDGE! Not really a big deal...kind of like the other jack-in-a-box review sites/magazines. Gametrailers is ok, Game Informer and IGN are ok too....I guess. I like the game news from the hiphopgamer show and Gametrailers, because they seem to be the most accurate.
I agree with you...and we should talk about something more interesting. I wounder how much MORE damage Nintendo Wii would have done if it's specs matched the 360 or ps3? Man, that system would have been legendary!
