gow 2 > rest 2
bump
Red ring of death currently gives the notch to PS3, I say this only because I've gone through 3 xbox 360 all with the same problem and one of them the disc tray failed.
Can someone summarize this thread for me, I'm too busy enjoying Gears Of War 2 to read this thread in it's entirety......
Bump no red ring of death here :toast
I'm too busy playing the L4D demo to understand this thread.
Im just busy
Damn Xbox just kicked the shit out of the PS3 for October selling almost 2:1...Do you think it'll take another year for the PS3 to catch up, due to its superior processing power and upside?
GOW 2, 2 million copies sold. How'd rest. 2 do? :sleep
Nah brah, Gears 2 is.
Yes, we're all aware that number of copies sold means it's a superior game. Madden >>> GoW with that logic. :rolleyes
It's not a shock GoW is outselling Resistance with the hype machine behind it, not to mention the number of X360s out there.
But that's really 360's last card up it's sleeve, right? Unless Halo 3: Recon REALLY surprises, that's about it for exclusive "must-have" titles for a while.
I'm not hating. I'm sure GoW2 is freaking fantastic, and so is R:2. But it will be interesting to see that with the last of the major titles out for a while how the console war starts to shake down. If Sony can close the gap a bit before Christmas '09, we could see a very interesting war develop for the remaining exclusive titles.
On the other hand, if the Ps3 stays expensive, doesn't add any more must-haves beyond FFXIII, and doesn't do anything significant to renew interest, it could mean the final blow which would at least give the 360 a win over the Ps3, if not the Wii.
Remember, the Ps2 alone sold 140,000,000 worldwide. Right now we have about 65,000,000 consoles purchased of the three "next-gen" systems. Even if EVERYONE who owned an xbox (~25 million) and a Gamecube (~25 million) bought a Ps2 (and I didn't, long story), that still leaves a wide open market of gamers who haven't stepped up yet. Even with a conservative estimate, say 110 million adopt a new system, it's upwards of 50 million who have yet to buy a new console.
Basically right now it's on Sony. Microsoft has played it's ace hand, and they're winning (though the Wii is probably still going to sell more this holiday season), and if Sony doesn't knuckle down and answer with several must-haves (here's looking at you, Gran Turismo 5, Metal Gear 5, FFXIII), it could be over for Sony as a game company and as a company, period.
Right now though, the gamers are winning. We have competition like we've never seen before with no clear front-runner. And don't forget about the PC. It is by no means finished. Gears 2 looks good but it's not as technically astute as Crysis, which is going to remain the benchmark for "holy shit, look at this" for quite a while. As much as I love my Ps3 and have fun with my friend's 360, nothing compares to the PC experience for me yet. Especially where FPSs are concerned.
I believe the 360 has sold way more games than the Wii.
How can you call FF13 a must have for PS3 when its coming out on Xbox? Also, do you think GT5 is a console pusher like MGS4 was, and GoW2 probably will be? I have a 360 but still have to play GoW..I'm slacking. But the future of PS3 looks bright.
Sorry I misread your post...FF13 is a must have but I'm curious on the difference between both.
the ps3 is great for Internet, flash porn, and ps2 games. Outside of that, the only ps3 exclusive worth a damn is MGS. And the Online for MGS sucks.
yeah, that one's up there with the best for sure, especially with the addition of horde mode. i just prefer the pacing of L4D.
and i'd say little big planet is the best reason to own a ps3 over a 360 atm. loving what some of the early custom levels are looking like:
LBP - Mirror's Edge level
