| Jeronimo66 said: For 2009, PS3 got 2 exclusives thats decent and 1 exclusive thats good and those are: Killzone 2 Uncharted 2 God of War 3 (this is the good one) God of war 3 will NOT be released in 2009, the reason I believe it will not be released this year is because it was shown THIS YEAR for the FIRST TIME in VIDEO ONLY format, which means, the game is NOT coming out this year, I have NEVER seen a game first shown in VIDEO ONLY format and then gets released the same year it was first shown, if there was a gameplay video shown of God of War 3 this year I would have no problem believing it will be released this year. Killzone 2 was first shown in VIDEO ONLY format in 2005 and is NOW getting a release, almost 4 years later. that leaves only 2 decent games coming to the PS3 in 2009, Killzone 2 and Uncharted 2 Now on to 360, GTA 4: Lost and Damned (I don't care what anybody says any game with 10-20 hours of gameplay counts as a full game.) Halo 3: ODST (It's Halo, nuff said) Now looking at the timelines Killzone 2 will have to prove that it can beat the best shooting game this generation, Gears of War 2 (which is now fixed for online), yes, I know Gears of War 2 is a 2008 title, but it's a new game, it's only been out for 2 months and will only be out for 3 months on feburary 7th the month Killzone 2 is coming out but its still the shooter that Killzone 2 is going to have to prove it can beat on the Xbox 360, not Halo, I think we all know who will win that battle, then you got GTA 4: Lost and Damned, Sony has no answer to this in quarter one, then later in the year you have Uncharted 2 going up against Halo 3: ODST, again, we all know whats going to happen there. PS3 MAY have the most exclusives coming out in 2009, but it's not about just 2009, it's about the Xbox 360s lineup to date versus the PS3s, that's why I threw in Gears of War 2 as a game thats competiting in 2009, when you think about it Gears of War 2 was released late 2008, November 7th to be exact, so it's practically a 2009 title anyway. That leaves 3 games on Xbox 360 for 2009, Gears of War 2, GTA 4: Lost and Damned, and Halo 3 ODST. that's 2 on PS3 versus 3 on Xbox 360. LOL @ PS3s lineup. |
God of War 3 is coming this year, I'm counting on it. If it does not, then I still have all the multiplats that interest me like Resident Evil 5, Bionic Commando, Street Fighter 4, and later on probably games like Darksiders and Splatter House. And I'm really looking forward to exclusive RPGs like White Knight Chronicles and Demon's Souls which may not mean anything to you (who cares nothing about good systems/games you can't afford). Uncharted 2 is a given for October-Novemeber, and I know I'll give a shot since I own and liked very much the first game. As for Killzone 2, I'll wait to play the demo/full game at a friend's to decide if it's worth buying for me since I'm not a big FPS multiplayer gamer. There are still a few games I haven't played from 2008, and if you're willing to throw Gears of War 2 as a 2009 title, then I guess Valkyria Chronicles, Dead Space and Fallout 3 are pretty much 2009 games for me, since I haven't played them and I really wish to. Other 2009 PS3 exclusives I'm not really expecting to play/buy are Infamous, Heavy Rain and the Agency. All 3 look like they have good budgets and production value so I guess I'll keep an eye on the reviews when they finally hit the stores, it doesn't hurt I guess. DC Universe Online looks like it could come out this year, I'm really interested in that, I hope it can make it. Finally, I would advice you to just enjoy games regardless of systems you own, it's pretty pointless to bash games/system just because you don't/can't own it. Great games are great games, and the people resposible for making the masterpieces you love today in a console (example from the top of my mind: Hinorobu Sakaguchi's Final Fantasy) can very well be making masterpieces for other consoles tomorrow (Sakaguchi's Lost Odyssey for X360). And since I'm talking about Final Fantasy series, I'm willing to bet many fanboys didn't think much of Final Fantasy 13 when all they knew it was a PS3 exclusive, probably they bashed the game and had all kind of ridiculous fanboy discussions on forums like this one. I'm sure they talk differently now about it now that it's coming to X360. I'm sure all the Killzone 2 haters would react the same way if tomorrow they'd find out KZ2 is coming to the X360 as well. Fanboyism is ridiculous.
