I mean all I hear is PS3 has potential while the 360 is maxed out. 2008 isPS3 year the 360 has nothing. The PS3 shows it graphical progression the 360 can't even beat the Gears of War after a year.

You guys need to calm down. The 360 is far from being maxed out and it has plenty for 2008. Just because one system has more popular well known games doesn't mean it is going to be that system year. It could be, but that is all just speculation now.

How about you guys wait until the next gaming conference to see what the 360 has in store. I picked the 360 over the PS3 because it isn't an establish console and doesn't have staple games to call them xbox's ips. I like new ips and generally choose them over established franchise if they are fun, and I consider the established franchise stale( I have nothing against sequals I like sequals too). Not saying the PS3 doesn't have new IPs, but the 360 has more and they seem far interesting.

However this doesn't mean I do not want a PS3. I do and will be getting one when FFXIII comes out unless level 5 finds a way to make the battle system awesome again in WKS.

Microsoft might have alot of surprises for you. Sucks that people only want to see Sony succeed. During the Nintendo Sega era I preferred Sega, but never felt that Nintendo was utterly crap and had no games I could ever enjoy. I don't see why people were like that last gen and this gen.

I don't know what your front page looks like but until November most of the front page threads here in SW were talking bad about PS3, saying it has no good games and other myths. I am glad you chose the 360 for yourself but you kind of contradict yourself in your post. You say you avoid sequels and chose new IPs but then say you will get a PS3, not for Little Big Planet, HS, Uncharted, Warhawk, or many other solid new Ips but for FFXIII. The freakin 13th entry into this series and you complain about sequels?

The 360 is the most hated console because it's the best value on the market right now. Everyone is jealous of HALO3 and the achievement system so they are constantly spewing bile at both. It's really quite remarkable. Everyone should love it.

I know what you mean.

Its cause of the hermits and their elitist views. They always brag about how PCs are so ahead of the game and blah blah blah.

Combine that with the fact that Blu-Ray provides gaming experiences beyond our imagination with 25GB (or 50GB dual-layer) and that puts the PS3 in second place.

So since consoles are inferior, the 360 is just more inferior than the PStriple with its puny little DVD9.

According to SW: 360 will fail due to RROD (both in the market and hardware-wise) and crappy 2008 lineup, Wii's popularity will die soon and suck, and PS3's library sucks but will boom in 2008.

I would have bought ps3 by now if the games you mention where worth the $60. A 7 -9 hour experience for HS and a 12 hr experience Uncharted is not worth shelling $400 on a system when these two games my most highly anticipated games at that doesn't even break 30 hrs of gameplay combined. Once I beat a game I am done. Unless it has achievements that I want to get.

FFXIII is not really a sequal because it is an entirely new game. I stated WKS didn't I?

Come on. You know most people say the 360 has the best games which technicaly based on reviews of game it is true. However one person 6 is someone elses 9. So in the end it is all opinion. For me Dreamcast is still king when it comes to games. Most fun I had with any console, but I must say the 360 is closing in if keeps pumping out the games. I was more excited for 2008 then 2007 and I am haveing a blast this year.

The PS3 has many of the same games as the 360. Most of them run just as well on the PS3. Aside from the plentiful exclusives that give around the same gameplay time as many solid games like MGS, GOW, and the not so 40 hour ME, you can enjoy tons of multiplats like Need for Speed, Dirt, Oblivion, Rainbow Six, NGS, COD 4, etc.. Not to mention the fact that you can watch HD movies when you dont wanna game.

Oh and Warhawk, Resistence, COD 4,Motorstorm and Rainbow Six are all solid online games that easily give you more then 30 hours of gameplay. At the end of the day it comes down to preference. You chose the 360 because it was best for your taste. In my opinion the PS3 easily justified the 400 I spend on it. Since launch I have played plenty of games on a regular basis and got a freakin solid Blu ray collection as well.

What you mean anymore? It never was. Perfect Dark is still the best in my eyes. I am just waiting for a proper sequal now. See guys I like sequals too.

Sorry buddy, but I wanted Halo 3. However I wans't going to get the 360 if it did not get any JRPGs. Once Blue Dragon, Lost Odyssey, Cry On, Magna Carta 2, Eternal Sonata, and Infinit Undiscovery was announced I jumped in. I normally not a fan of the FF series though, but FFXIII and FFversus peeked my interests. Once again if WKS story truns out to be awesome again I will buy a PS3 along with that game.

Also most multiplat games have been better on the 360 and were not delayed.

[QUOTE="too_much_eslim"][QUOTE="King_of_Sorrow"]When I come here I get the feeling the 360 is the best console ever made. I even get the feeling people think its games are better than any past gen.King_of_Sorrow

Come on. You know most people say the 360 has the best games which technicaly based on reviews of game it is true. However one person 6 is someone elses 9. So in the end it is all opinion. For me Dreamcast is still king when it comes to games. Most fun I had with any console, but I must say the 360 is closing in if keeps pumping out the games. I was more excited for 2008 then 2007 and I am haveing a blast this year.

Xbox360 = Sega Genesis

Wii = Nintendo Entertainment System

PS3 = Playstation 1

That's how I feel about the current gen.

I don't get what are you trying to say. Are you saying the 360 and the wii is being left behind the PS3. I make this assumption based on the fact you compare an 8 bit and 16 bit system with a 32 bit system.

I mean all I hear is PS3 has potential while the 360 is maxed out. 2008 isPS3 year the 360 has nothing. The PS3 shows it graphical progression the 360 can't even beat the Gears of War after a year.

You guys need to calm down. The 360 is far from being maxed out and it has plenty for 2008. Just because one system has more popular well known games doesn't mean it is going to be that system year. It could be, but that is all just speculation now.

How about you guys wait until the next gaming conference to see what the 360 has in store. I picked the 360 over the PS3 because it isn't an establish console and doesn't have staple games to call them xbox's ips. I like new ips and generally choose them over established franchise if they are fun, and I consider the established franchise stale( I have nothing against sequals I like sequals too). Not saying the PS3 doesn't have new IPs, but the 360 has more and they seem far interesting.

However this doesn't mean I do not want a PS3. I do and will be getting one when FFXIII comes out unless level 5 finds a way to make the battle system awesome again in WKS.

Microsoft might have alot of surprises for you. Sucks that people only want to see Sony succeed. During the Nintendo Sega era I preferred Sega, but never felt that Nintendo was utterly crap and had no games I could ever enjoy. I don't see why people were like that last gen and this gen.

too_much_eslim

I don't know what your front page looks like but until November most of the front page threads here in SW were talking bad about PS3, saying it has no good games and other myths. I am glad you chose the 360 for yourself but you kind of contradict yourself in your post. You say you avoid sequels and chose new IPs but then say you will get a PS3, not for Little Big Planet, HS, Uncharted, Warhawk, or many other solid new Ips but for FFXIII. The freakin 13th entry into this series and you complain about sequels?

I would have bought ps3 by now if the games you mention where worth the $60. A 7 -9 hour experience for HS and a 12 hr experience Uncharted is not worth shelling $400 on a system when these two games my most highly anticipated games at that doesn't even break 30 hrs of gameplay combined. Once I beat a game I am done. Unless it has achievements that I want to get.

FFXIII is not really a sequal because it is an entirely new game. I stated WKS didn't I?

The PS3 has many of the same games as the 360. Most of them run just as well on the PS3. Aside from the plentiful exclusives that give around the same gameplay time as many solid games like MGS, GOW, and the not so 40 hour ME, you can enjoy tons of multiplats like Need for Speed, Dirt, Oblivion, Rainbow Six, NGS, COD 4, etc.. Not to mention the fact that you can watch HD movies when you dont wanna game.

Oh and Warhawk, Resistence, COD 4,Motorstorm and Rainbow Six are all solid online games that easily give you more then 30 hours of gameplay. At the end of the day it comes down to preference. You chose the 360 because it was best for your taste. In my opinion the PS3 easily justified the 400 I spend on it. Since launch I have played plenty of games on a regular basis and got a freakin solid Blu ray collection as well.

Sorry buddy, but I wanted Halo 3. However I wans't going to get the 360 if it did not get any JRPGs. Once Blue Dragon, Lost Odyssey, Cry On, Magna Carta 2, Eternal Sonata, and Infinit Undiscovery was announced I jumped in. I normally not a fan of the FF series though, but FFXIII and FFversus peeked my interests. Once again if WKS story truns out to be awesome again I will buy a PS3 along with that game.

Also most multiplat games have been better on the 360 and were not delayed.

since you like JRPG's what about Disgaea 3?

There actually is some truth to that. Wii is last gen tech, 360 is current gen stuff thats really accessible and useful now and the ps3 is basically ahead of its time not necessarily graphically but its giving bluray huge momentum something that in the future will be huge thanks to the ps3

Yes, I think Nintendo will win this gen because of the casual vote. I believe the Xbox360 is a successful console, but the company is not. Sony will place second, but still will be consider the console for 'gamers'.

Microsoft took no risks what so ever. People might see that as a risk itself though. It doesn't bother me though. I just want to ply fun games.

Microsoft isn't succesful? Personally I agree that the 360 will be dead last, but I think it will manage to sell at least 40-50 million units this gen.

Cow's have been absolutely RABID lately.

The frustration of not having anything worthwhile to play must be getting to them.

Seriously though, it's not only recently, but for MONTHS and MONTHS Cow's have created at least 10 threads a week about:

a) The 360 wont be around by 2009
b) The 360 lineup is horrible and nothing compared to PS3's
c) The 360 will be dropped my Microsoft at the end of 2008


:roll: :roll: :roll:

I realise this is just normal fanboy trolling, and all sides do it, but NEVER with the same amount of MALICE and VENOM that the BS3 users electronically HISS at 360 owners because of the PURCHASE THEY'VE MADE.

Cow's are especially bitter that the 360 is doing so much better than the PS3 (with the Wii absolutely demolishing it) because they're used to being king of the castle and telling other console owners to eat cake for so, so long. It really is bittersweet.

On the flipside, one thing Cows can't stop talking about is the object of their affection - SONY.

DAILY Cow threads:

a) "SONY gonna pwn 2008" (pwn :roll: )
b) PS3 outsells 360!!!!!!!!!!!! (*click on link : In Japan)
c) PS3 will have 2X better graphics than 360 in 2008
d) PS3 has the best lineup ever in 200(insert 1-9 number here)!!!!!!!!!

...amongst others we're all sick of hearing about, the worst and most tiresome are:

e) FF-MMCLXXVIIII and MGS4... why buy a 360 ?
f) THE PS3 HAS SOLD JUST AS WELL AS THE 360 DID IN ITS FIRST YEAR SO ITS DOING BETTER THAN THE 360



Seriously, why must Cow's be so melodramatic ? They take EVERYTHING beyond the pale.

Sheep are just annoying, and Hermits don't apply.

I see so many say something to the tone of this but I never read how that will happen.

Do you realize that the PS3 must sale 500.000+ more consoles per month then the 360 to beat them in sales before 2009?

So far (on a combined world wide basese) the PS3 hasn't done that since launch.

I'm not saying the PS3 is a ad console (I do question the Blu-ray drive and what they are using it for) but Logic would tell you that Microsoft will stay in 2nd through out this gen.

Oh and Warhawk, Resistence, COD 4,Motorstorm and Rainbow Six are all solid online games that easily give you more then 30 hours of gameplay. At the end of the day it comes down to preference. You chose the 360 because it was best for your taste. In my opinion the PS3 easily justified the 400 I spend on it. Since launch I have played plenty of games on a regular basis and got a freakin solid Blu ray collection as well.

Wow...caught in a bold faced lied. The PS3 was a minimum of $500 at launch.

My bad I mean 499, I bought the 20 gig with no regrets. Sounds like finding that error made your day though, lol.
