Again, Joe Danger had extra content and UFC 360 only made it above 70. Exceptions to the rule like anything but worth mentioning none the less. 

It shouldnt matter if some games were from "ages ago" or "easy ports". Quality 360 game, Not on PS3, its in. Simple. 

"Influenced by hype and incentives". This made me lol. Yes its all an anti Sony world out there or is it a MS conspiracy? Maybe both? LOL. Each game scored well on their own merits. Dont act like reviewers arent influenced by hype when writing reviews for PS3 exclusives like Uncharted 3. Door swings both ways. 

Every major Halo release gets above 90. Spinoffs, expansions, and now remakes get above 80. Id say thats a damn good franchise. I say MILK AWAY if the milk tastes this damn good :). I suspect jealousy since no PS3 IP can touch a major Halo FPS sales and brand recognition, not to mention pop culture phenom status.You do realize that Halo 4 will be different from the previous entries, mainly your not fighting the Covenant? This alone will give the series a frssh feel, reviewers will love this. 

Advertisement=brand reconition not quality. Couldnt agree more. A-AAA is quality. If a game gets both down, thats amazing to hear. But make no mistake....Brand recognition > quality. On a gaming forum this statement is controversial but my point is quality doesnt mean much if people just arent interested. Like a piece of quality produce at a grocery store that wilts cause nobody bought it when it was at its best. Im afraid this will be the case with most if not all PS3 2012 exclusives. 

I havent argued the merits of these games? What do you think the list was? A-AAA games that scored in the 70s, 80s and 90s on metacritic. If that isnt arguing merit of a game then I dont know what does. If anything your the one who ignores quality of those games with stupid excuses like  they are old, kinect based, or ports. Gimme a break. 

What makes me think you ignored the several games that got extra content on ps3. It's the same game deal with it. Adding a bit more content does not an exclusvie make.

Oh please you can play those games on any computer made in the last decade. Unless you want to argue people with a ps3 don't have a pc made in the last decade you have no arguement. So sick of people pretneding games not on ps3 are 360 exclusive THEY AREN'T.

Yes it does, but we all know MS is alot better at that kind of thing then Sony. MS knows how to cheat and play dirty best. 

Don't you find it a little inconsistent that the user review for halo reach is 7.5/10 on metacrtic where the ones who get antyhing from bonuses and the game early from MS to straight up cash from MS gave it 91/100? ps3 shooters might not reach halo status but ps3 has every other genre over 360, platformer, rpg, action adventure, hack and slash 360 exclusives can't hold a candle to most of the ps3 exclusives in their genre never mind the best ones. Also halo isn't that much better then most ps3 exclusive fpses merit wise. Hell what makes Halo Reach better then Resistence 3?

A bunch of reviews. Merits of the game is what makes it good not who was paid/influenced to say it's good. So now you know what argueing merits is.

Anyway, God of War IV should have a co op feature. Online and offline.

GoW IV could very well be the killer app to finally sell those PlayStation 3D Displays.



Weren't we suppose to discuss GoW4 rumors? This thread got derailed badly, next time learn to ignore the sales guy.
Mods, throw it into the fire.

Gaming on: PS4 Pro, Switch, SNES Mini, Wii U, PC (i5-7400, GTX 1060)

I dont get the hype Halo gets and sales no one on my xbox friends list plays this a month or two after release. I dont like shooting pink lights at aliens that look like cast offs from sesame street if any 360 exclusive should be on that level it should be Gears. I also dont like how Foza took over Project Gotham as the xbox racer. I dont think games like Forza of GT are fun.

Back on Topic GOW4 co-op sounds like a great Idea, might be tough to maintain the FPS and graphics with online co-op though would be a shame if the graphics had to take a step back from the bar that GOW3 set.

What I learned from this thread is that most of you guys don't realize that AAA pertains to budget and not quality...

For example, Homefront was touted as being a AAA title because it had a massive budget and THQ invested many ressources on the title. It ended up being a so-so game but it is still considered a AAA title.

Its examples like that that render that statement dated. To call a game less then 90 on metacritic AAA doesnt sound right. High 80's games are exceptions offcourse.

Definitions of words change throughout history. In this case the word is lost in transition, having double meaning now. 



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.

I'd rather take the meaning that veterans of the industry employ than one forged on forums. And I wish everybody would do the same.

Companies use the term AAA in their financial reports to define a game with hefty budgets.

Using it as a measure of quality is erroneous and you'd best adapt to it's right meaning. It can only give more weight to your arguments.



well Santa Monica is do for a game...2012 E3 apperance?



They said this would be the last core god of war featuring the main Kratos story arc but with all these rumors it would be stupid if nothing materialized from it, I'm predicting a psn downloadable title which would make perfect sense with the rumors of multiplayer and co-op.



End of 2012 prediction:

xbox 360 : 73-75 million  playstation 3 : 72-74 million  wii : 104-105 million 

Most hyped for :

Bioshock: infinte, The Last Of Us, Alan Wake's American Nightmare and Agent
