Xbox Officially Wins September

[darth los]

The ps3's two main failures have been the ludacris $600 dollarr price point(and the arrogance that people would buy them just because they were sony) and the uutter lack of any blockbuster exclusives with a couple of exceptions. They've tinkered with the price but their game lineup is not knocking anybody's socks off. The 360 on the other hand has top of the line franchises like halo, gears of war and mass effect. There's really nothing more to say. That's the difference right there.

Mines 60Gig and has backwards compatibility but Ill stop with the ps3 fanboyism its all everyone seems to hate the ps3 and love the 360 and I always feel in every argument both sides should be represented. Not saying that the 360 isnt a great console but I say give it time since both consoles are still getting improvments ans so on. Darth youre right with the ps3 exclusives only ones I can think of off the top of my head are haze and gta4? and devil may cry o course and final fantasy games : Shrug : I agree sir. Sony needs a kick in the ass if they want to stay in the game.

The only ps3 game that there seems to be a consensus that's any good is resistance fall of man. Any others are debatable imo. I think that gta 4 will be on the 360 as well.

Yup, GTA IV will be on the PS3 and the 360 simultaneously, in fact the 360 version has exclusive downloadable content that wont be available to the PS3. Oh and Devil May Cry is on the 360 too.

Sony needs a kick in the ass if they want to stay in the game. The 60gb model here in the USA is fully backwards compatable as it has the emotion engine built in, but in Europe they used software instead of hardware on all PS3's to make them backwards compatable so they are not at 100% backwards compatability. THe 80gb model was relased without the emotion engine at all so it is basically the European model with a larger hard drive. Now there is a 40gb model that is not backwards compatable at all, has 2 less USB ports and is basically a way for $ony to try to gain some sales. GTA 4 is on both systems and was delayed because it was not ready for PS3 yet and Rockstar has a contract that states it has to be released on both platforms at the same time, it also has exclusive downloadable content that is only available to 360 owners only. The Devil May Cry series is also going to be on Xbox 360 so that is another exclusive lost to PS3... they also lost the Ace Combat series, the Katamari Damacy series and quite a few other series as exclusives. All in all Sony is really hurting. Haze, Metal Gear Solid 4 and Final Fantasy 13 are just about the only big names Sony still has as far as exclusives go... and Haze may not be as good as it looks. I'll admit, the PS3 is capable of a lot of things, but it's too bad Sony became such jackholes and lost tons of customers due to defective products and bad customer service. There is a reason the PS2 is the top selling console of all time, most people had to buy 2 or 3 of them because they kept breaking.

Haze, Metal Gear Solid 4 and Final Fantasy 13 are just about the only big names Sony still has as far as exclusives go... and Haze may not be as good as it looks. Even Metal Gear Solid 4 don't look safe for Sony 'cos Kojima has already hinted that a 360 port is on the cards. That leaves FF and Gran Turismo as Sony exclusives and most intelligent people wont buy a console for just two games alone.

and technically ,just to sick burn sony, haze was multiconsole till the 360 higher ups said a game that used drugs usage as in integral part was not the message they want to send. im just sayin'

Yup Sony is hurting but Im not particularely looking for a console in terms of exclusives indeed the 360 has em all and Sony is loosing out. I have the choice of the two since I have the ps3 and my 360 is being repaired and Im thinking which one to get rid and which one to keep..I do love my ps3 and its free online and how smoothly it runs and all that sorta stuff but the 360 has its own pros and cons the main two that are in my face are the failure rate and the online feature. I still have yet to enjoy halo 3 but heard good reports so Im gonna rent a copy when I get the 360 back and see if it sways me into getting my cash back for the ps3. It looks like a better version of halo 2 and Ive heard it is a big let down from some people but then again Ive had plenty of friends calling their 360`s bukkake box`s because of it. Im off to uni soon and Id like to be able to game online and just get hooked up to the wireless without having to make sure I can pay for live although it is still 45 a year for xbox live? : chin stroke : Sony is infamous for its crappy support but it seems I have very good luck with no broken ps`s so far in my life and a broken 360 but it was near the release so flaws to be expected. So theres new flaws on the 360 with the green ring hells said? Nevermind guess it all comes down to luck since my 360 might come back and work like perfect or it might be sent off the day after. My ps3 may run for five more years or melt next month but bah, I hope IM not in that 1% failure rate.

There is a reason the PS2 is the top selling console of all time, most people had to buy 2 or 3 of them because they kept breaking. You know i never thought about it like that before. I'd like to see the statististics on how many replacement consoles account for that 120 million + sold figure.
