Good games generally sell well. Bad games generally don't. Consoles with lots of good games generally sell well (PS2) Consoles with not a lot of good games generally don't (PS3). This is how the console gaming market works. Therefore good games drive good sales over the long term. mikemil828

There are many OK games that sell great (Madden series). And many great games that don't.

not everyone. I think it's BS to change the system 1/2 through. But I do think common ground can be found.

[QUOTE="Zhengi"][QUOTE="CaseyWegner"][QUOTE="Zhengi"]

So basically that's your way of downplaying sales? Let me ask you this. What if a console gets games that don't sell? What's the end result of that? A dead console. How does that benefit anyone?

CaseyWegner

it benefits those who buy it and those who don't are missing out. it's still the best system until another one passes it with games.

How is it the best system if it's dead? You're really stretching here now Casey.

dead or alive, it still has the most good games. therefore, it's the best until something passes it. why would a system with fewer good games be better than a system with more good games?

seriously casey you need to look at a hybrid model something like I posted above takes all view points and gives each one a voice.
I swear this is like the sunni's vs. shiites...no one wants to give an inch and refuses to look for common ground.

If we can't find a common solution that satisifes most of us here (like 80%) you'll lose a lot of good SW posters.

Why can't we have multi-categories?

-Bestselling system
-Most AAAE/AAE games (2 point/1 point)
-Most AAA/AA games (2 point/1 point) (we count all games even if they are counted in the Exclusive category here)
-Mostselling games (attach rate type thing)

We can track all 4 of those areas then at the end determine the winner. Based on something like this:

-AAAE/AAE games winner = 4 points
-Console sales = 3 points
-AAA/AA games winner = 2 points
-Most sold games = 1 point

Both are important. Number of systems sold is very important. It's nice to be able to take your games to a friends house and play it there. Or if you both have them to network them and have a LAN/System Link type party.

And great games available is obviously important. It goes without saying you need great games to play.

But then the # of games sold matters as well (see point 1).

TC please for the love of god wait till TGS is over.

You could use some of the stuff announced and shown to strengthen your opinion.

imo

FFXIII, Killzone 2, MGS4, Little big planet, White Knight Story= verygodly combo

however FFXIII could get delayed at TGS, even without it the combo is still godly. but not very godly to be honest.

the juggernauts = FFXIII KZ2, and MgS4. if all those come out in the same year...eesh.

Korrigan777

FFXIII and MGS4 are the ONLY games with a proven track record. 360's 2007 line up > that line up.

[QUOTE="Klash47"]dude only fanboys and the blind would say pgr4 looks betterJTH_22

Must be alot of blind here PGR4 is currently leading 6-4

And if you want PGR4 pics post them yourself

you just destroyed your own credibility right there...you post a comparison thread and only post pictures for the game that's gonna be on your system of choice...really unbiased :roll:

Yeah. Being unbiased is something you can't accuse him of. The TC's cow through and through.

Even with his biased posts PGR4 is winning the poll.

yeh but wat happens if the price does go down..

Microsoft is gonna be kiking themselves in the butt.
GarchomPro

No because ps3 NEEDS sales TODAY. So by delaying people from buying it they are costing sony money. I always wondered why a company would release a rumor that htey'd drop the price. it's stupid as no one will buy the product today.

Yep, I was noticing EA has really increased their game lately. Competition is good.
