Twisted Metal is great ? Thats the same saying Cod is Great.

Both franchises are the same they were years ago, bad graphics and so-so gameplay.

Cod 4 was great, problem is that we evolve and Cod stills the same, just like TM.


Ive played COD and I'd say the year incrimental changes are so small. Have you played Twisted Metal? The game is grand compared to the former titles. The computer ai is stuck on you like a madman with a death wish. The game on a multiplayer level is great. Its just a ball of gameplay, but anyway, this topic isnt about PS3 titles. I was just saying its good that the 360 had to market these because of lack of retail exclusive titles for gamers like us. Am I wrong? prove it.

See the games i listed above, you´re wrong.

You've proven absolutely nothing. All you've done is say you dont like the games and dont think the new ones which you havent played are worth a damn either. I cant judge you for certain exclusives not being your cup of tea. I will not say you're wrong, I am saying you're not proving me wrong with facts as you claimed. Back to the topic at hand, which is the indy games. Thanks.

You said Xbox hasnt retail games and i´ve send you a big list of Retail games coming this year. Multis or exclusives i dont care, games are games.

Games are games, especially when other systems have them. Exclusives are games with a different kind of power though. This should be common sense to you.

It's good that they get a better spot on the US dashboard, but the rest of the world (Or at least the Netherlands) still can't acces Indie Games and I'm not buying US points just so I can buy TechnoKitten Adventures at 80msp.

More Windows 8 Tile horridness! Either I will be keeping Windows 7 for a very long time or a new OS is in my future. All those squares are just disgusting to look at.

Exclusive are other kind of power?

Sure ALOT INFERIOR to Cod or GTA.

Those have multiplayer sales. People can have those games if they have either of the HD twins. Exclusives are the banner carriers for their brand. They are the value of the first party and the signifier of their audience.

Doesn't Microsoft usually have an option to have the desktop display as previous versions?  Such as when Windows 2000 was out they had a Windows 98 display option.  Probably the same thing when XP came out.  I have no clue on future iterations considering I am stuck on XP for now.  I do plan on getting a new (refurbished) PC sometime...

Thats because with Microsoft mutliplayer trumps exclusives. It doesnt work that way with Nintendo or Sony.

With Nintendo absolutely.

With Sony works the same way.

Best Selling Ps3 Games last year :

Mw3, BF3, Skyrim.

Stop being delusional. Mw3 moves more Ps3s than ALL Sony exclusives combined.
