Nvideas rsx pipelines vs 360 ATI pipelines 360 core vs ps3 cell

that is too true and why i said that. the problem with the 360 today is aside from saint's row or even deadrising there have not been too many of those "best sellers" for the system. people only seem to throw around those two games as of late, GOW and Halo and for w/e reason m$ or the public seem to always include the games releasing simultaneously with ps3, and implying it'll affect console sales for either the 360 or ps3 (and fninja i'm not picking on you or anything, just making a point). so again it raises the question of why after having a year headstart are there not more of these expected blockbusters? what is or would make people believe or want to believe that things are shaping up differently than the last battle between xbox and playstation with respect to game lineup? seems more of the same.....oh and before some claim sony is losing exclussives, it seems to be the trend this gen. i think 3rd party titles are going to be more multiplatform or those that are exclussive, only exclussive for a set time being. m$ were the ones or actually Moore who claimed GTA as an exclussive only to be proven wrong, AC is no longer exclussive for the ps3, and apparantly bioshock another game from E3 this year that got some nice feedback is also coming to the ps3. so again it seems to be the trend, and if that is the case playstation as a whole IMO has always had much better first party titles than xbox.

 

some good points there, and i have to agree ps has always had more exclusives, but there are, much like the ps3 many games that have not come into the light for xbox 360, most people only know about gears of war and halo 3.

i need to go to work now, but when i come back i will make a list of what i think are must have games for 2007 (xbox 360).

 

here is an article about playstation 3 passing FCC tests.

i know a lot of those games are also coming to ps3, but with my budget if i was told that i can only buy these games for 2007, then i personally would be extremely happy.
the list that i made was based on the games that i have read about, there are about another 2000 exclusives that i just do not know enough about to put on the must have list.

 

Oh fewf, I thought my account was frozen perminently >.<
I've been on vacation so i could'nt of updated this forum,
ill post some new info soon.

 

in terms of exclusives i think that there is a reason that there aren't going to be any more. how much money do you think the developer is loosing by only releasing on one system. its probably harder for sony or microsoft to make up that difference with the development costs and all that of this generation.

but on the topic of exclusives i think sony's development teams have a little bit of an edge over microsofts teams. in my opinion they have gears of war coming out and halo. what other "must-haves" does microsofts teams have? With sony though, they have resistance, untold legends, genji, heavenly sword, warhawk, and grand turismo. and i know not all of these are "must haves" for all of you but i have heard multiple people name each of these multpile times.

 

you make a good point. it was the same with the xbox 360's predacessor. better quality graphics, but alot less anticipated games.

 

in stark contrast to last couple posts:

http://wii.ign.com/articles/737/737977p1.html

 

those with a 360 want their version of the game, the 360 has been out almost a year. or in the largest case the public knows alot more of the 360 and its games right now, the ps3 is yet to be released and the launch games are unknown. that article has no validity untill more in known about the ps3 and it games or the ps3 has been on market for some time.

 

still, it's hard to shake the feeling that the 360 is turning a lot of heads.

 

same on the ps3 end. look at how fast all the preorders went up, even for the amount there were. plus polls, unrelyable as they can be, in japan are showing a larger interest in the ps3 with the system and game price drop. the 360 offers nothing more than what we've always had, and both wii and ps3 threw in some jazz in the gaming world. i see both outselling the 360 if the wii is popular.

 

I think I need both, ps3 for pretty much everything, xbox for the exclusive halo/gears of war/saints row junk.

"in stark contrast to last couple posts:

i find the timeframe with x06 ending on the 28th of sept and this big brother test which was from 1oct - 8oct, a bit coincidental. im sure if they did this back when TGS kicked off, most everything would have been ps3 driven as sony seemed to be the talk of the show. x06 seemed to have a pretty positive reaction by many and considering the 360 is the system out i don't find it surprising that their games are highest amongst those being viewed the most.

also the two games for the wii and although red steel is not listed seem to be, not the only games people talk about, but the ones we hear more often. so again i don't find this too surprising.

i also find it a bit ironic that in the 360 section, there is hardly if ever any talk of games or info related to the 360. its all backup/flash/firmware/need help etc....i think that is pretty telling about a system. ok so this is a tech savy site, but how much attention did the x06 thread discussing all the games and news really get? maybe they all do go to IGN.....

here is a bit more news:

 

"gears of war coming out and halo. what other "must-haves" does microsofts teams have?"

bioshock, crackdown, pgr4, lost oddesy, lost plannet, mass effect, etc, etc, you get the idea.

 

yeah soo you need those, then you need a ps3 for everything else

Dead Rising 2

 

no accually i dont. the only games you listed their i think seem alright may be bioshock and mass effect, but even then so i havnt seen much or either or heard fantastic news to be able to call them must-haves.

and how can anyone like dead-f***ing-rising? it is the most obserd excuse for a game i have seen in some time. i would lose interest in playing after a short time. it seems more like a game to play here and there for 30 mins with friends taking turns killing. i dont like killing mindless creatures, i like a challenge or something. this is just lame.

 

Wow what is it with fan boys?

 

I love killing zombies!

 

i admit it would be fun, but not something with any replay value or and value past 30 minutes. i dont particularly enjoy mindless, endless hack 'n' slash. plus, what kind of story can you put behind a mall of zombies? why is there a mall of zombies? why just a mall? and doesnt this sound a little familiar? (stubbs the zombie had a fun segment in a mall, and in an episode of invader zim there were zombies being bred by the government from captured mall patrons. get some creativity devs..)
