ps3 doesnt stand a chance to pass the 360 this year.. maybe a year from now.. since GTA will sell more ps3's next year instead of 360's and with MGS4 and killzone all coming out relativley close together at the moment |
Why? Wouldn't the extra material that now should appear almost at the same time as the launch give 360 an edge? |
Id think so |
i just think that if i was a new console buyer... or someone upgrading from the ps2 or xbox generation.. early next year would be the perfect time to get a console....if i knew killzone MGS4 GTA IV were coming out so close to each other i would choose to get a ps3... those are potentially 3 blockbuster games.. yes the 360 version of GTA is better than the ps3 version because of the extra content.. but you gotta ask yourselves this question does that really matter in terms of choosing a system to buy?? i dont think it does.. what about you?? Now for me personally i might get the 360 version of GTA.. but just focus on new console buyers and not current ones and think about what i said.. i could mention that the ps3 will probably have another price drop by that time to help sales even more but im not gonna mention something that has not happened yet.. so i ask that anyone else does the same in response to my topic.. |
Well if I was a GTA fan, I ain't, which is going to buy a consol because of GTA4 I would go for that one that gave me the most game for the bucks, and that will be xbox360 simply because the extra content. Don't you think microsoft will advertise like hell that they have extra content coming in to GTA4? About other games, at the release of GTA4 xbox360 will have more exclusive games than PS3 and they will have more games in pre-used or price cut boxes. Something I don't think should be underestimated when it comes to chosing a consol. Of course all this is speculation and I can be wrong but if I was a diehard GTA4 fan (which I don't think 14 million users are) I would go for the xbox360. If I was a casual gamer that liked GTA last gen I would go for xbox360 because the other games in the library. |
well it seems like the hardcore GTA fans would pick up the 360 version.. but you gotta ask how many of those 14 million are hardcore??? most people just wanna pick up the game kill some people for a couple hours and thats it.. the casual fan might decide to get the ps3 version just because the ps3's library is broader than the 360's.. you have to remember we are talking about next year so many good titles will have already been released on the ps3... on top of the ones i mentioned earlier.. |
Sorry for the late answer, I went to bed after my last replay.
Actualy I most disagree here, xbox360 library is larger than PS3. Combined with one year headstart which means a larger amount of pre-own/cheaper games a casual gamer should get more game worth from their money if the buy a xbox360. Looking at the exclusive arms race xbox360 has the double of exclusive games than PS3 (96 vs 47). Then you have the multiplat.
Other than that I personally think that those that just wants to pick up the game and play it for a couple of hours and kill some people wont buy a PS3 or a xbox360 for a 350 USD+. Those persons will come when the consol is availble for 200 USD.
