People using VGChartz and Metacritic now? System wars has turned into a sad and sorry place. Considering what it once was, that is saying something. Can you play preorders? Does that effect how fun my experience with those titles will be? No. So I don't see how it matters what an unreliable third party website says about pre orders. Will the PS4 sell more units at launch? Probably, it really depends how many systems both companies can produce, as I believe all will sell out for the first month or two then we will see. Meanwhile I will be playing Forza5, DR3, and maybe even Ryse. Guess what I will get a PS4 when a new ND game comes out, as long as its a new franchise or a new Uncharted. Also I have already pre ordered and paid off my Xbox One. But I don't have a single game reserved... Why? Because I'm going all digital this generation on the Xbox One. Pre order numbers for games are not going to matter in a few years. Anyways, another thread that has no worthwhile context makes its way to the top of the front page with 10 pages worth of posts. I hope your proud of yourselves. IB4 ____ ____hurt! *LAUGH SMILEY* ___AGE

I have been having issues with the AI bugging out. My co-worker had an issue with a cutscene glitching out and not being able to play anymore.

I have MANY more issues with the game though.

1: The pacing is way out of wack

2: The level design is subpar compared to other Naughty Dog games.

3: Switching inventory iteams in real time can be a pain.  I have never liked any games that implement this. (ecpecially with how clunky it is in TLOU)

4: There is NO choice in how you move through this game.  You either play it stealth or you die.  I find stealth in this game repeative and boring.  I enjoyed it at first but it got really dull for me about 1/3 of the way through.

 

That being said the story and characters are some of Naughty Dog's best work.

IMO

Uncharted2>Uncharted3>Uncharted1>The Last of Us  this generation

The lack of Portal 2 in this thread is disturbing.

1: Skyrim

2: Civilization V

3: Super Mario Galaxy 2

4: Portal 2

5: Uncharted 2 Among Thieves

Runners up

6: Fallout 3

7: Ni No Kuni Wrath of the White Witch

8: Halo 4

9: Mass Effect

10: Alan Wake

Runners runners up

11: Donkey Kong Country Returns

12: Fable 2

13: Call of Duty 4 Modern Warfare

14: Bioshock Infinite

15: Assassins Creed Brotherhood

Note: I only included one game in each series, otherwise this list would have been way too long. I just picked my favorite from each one. Also I have yet to play many games (obviously). Most notably is "The Last of Us" which I'm fairly sure will make this list.

*Edit

Top 5 party and kinect games

1: You Don't Know Jack

2: Wii Sports

3: Kinect Party

4: Child of Eden

5: Mario Kart Wii

Top five Arade/Indie games

1: Super Meat Boy

2: Geometry Wars

3: Flower

4: Fat Princess

5: Feeding Frenzy

6: Marble Blast Ultra  (couldn't leave it off the list)

I think it is a very good console. A little short on games, but that is to be expected from a Nintendo console for the first year or so. I really like the apps, WiiTvii is very useful and fun to use, makes organizing the hundreds of channels I have very simple. I think NSMBU is the best 2d mario on a console since SMW (which still blows everything else out of the water). Miiverse is also very cool, a good community hub, and since the last system update everything loads comparable to the Ps3 and Xbox360. I also think the games that they are going to come out with will make my purchase even more worthwhile. -Zelda WW remake -Mario 3D (hopefully SMG3) -Mario Kart All should be out in the next 12 months. Negatives (No console is perfect) -Touch Screen can be unresponsive in apps, Netflix, Wii Tvii -Still getting a few errors that require me to reboot apps, even after the update -Virtual console is devoid of many games I would pay for I would say wait for a price drop that should come this fall depending on the pricing of MS and Sony's consoles. TLDR: Good system, some problems.

[QUOTE="JohnnyCageMK"]

Before Halo games and consoles were seen as toys. When Halo came out it changed everything and proved gaming can be a serious form of entertainment like movies. Halo 2 made online a standard for consoles and paved the way for games like Call of Duty. So without Halo gaming would have never evolved into the huge form of entertainment it is today.

tormentos
SOCOM II logs more player hours than ALL of Xbox Live As the summer months continue to warm up, PlayStation 2 gamers are beating the heat, and beating up each other, by playing more games online. We are seeing a huge uptake in the amount of gamers that are playing online since early May. Perhaps its because school has ended and gamers are finding more time to frag their friends online, or maybe its purely due to beating the heat waves, but the numbers dont lie. There has been a marked increase in the number of online players for the top online console game SOCOM II: U.S. Navy SEALs. Here are a few of the updated numbers for SOCOM II. Stay tuned for more great SOCOM II news in the very near future. Since May 1st 2004 SOCOM II has averaged 373,000 player hours per day. By itself, SOCOM II is logging more player hours daily than ALL Xbox titles worldwide. The total numbers of player hours for SOCOM II is fast approaching 94 million hours, or the equivalent of 10,835 YEARS of straight gameplay. Even nine months after launch, SOCOM II is still seeing more than 30,000 simultaneous users per day, far and away more than any other console title. That is like logging on and playing SOCOM II with the entire graduate and undergraduate student population of the University of Southern California! On any average day, there are more than 103,000 unique SOCOM II accounts logging-in, which is equivalent to the entire capacity of the University of Michigan Stadium, one of the largest sporting venues in the United States. This many people are playing SOCOM II everyday!! http://www.gamezone.com/news/socom_ii_logs_more_player_hours_than_all_of_xbox_live For all of those who don't know history...

So Socom II logged more hours that all of xbox live BEFORE Halo 2 came out in November. Reach still gets more than 103,000 unique players a day despite 2 new call of duty's coming out after it. http://www.bungie.net/stats/reach/online.aspx

I like that there is only AAA exclusives on the 360 side, but a bunch of crap mixed in with AAAE on the PS3 side. Lair? Really, you would keep a copy of that? Also God of War collections aren't really exclusive, I played them in SD and on a PSP. Ico and SotC as well. SDC isn't continuing at all, and much less dominating. I love my PS3, but blatantly idiotic posts and pics are unnecessary. Also, ispeakfact?

Lems have to savor their timed exclusives while they can then they go back to having no games and constantly getting all butthurt over this

COD has been dead to me for the last 3 years, BF3 didn't need to kill it. It nuked itself... TRUTH
