So an RTS, a JRPG, and a downloadable content pack, versus...quite possibly the most hyped PS3 game to date? Star Ocean 4 would be lucky to hit a million, and calling the DLC pack a game or anything close to it is pathetic. It's not like either would be in competition with Killzone 2 anyways even if they were significant. Halo Wars could be a decent threat, but Sony had much more deadly titles in holiday season '08 and they fell flat on their faces. And Microsoft comes around with their niche games and they think they're a threat to Killzone 2? |
I remeber all the PS3 fanboys keep saying all the 360 has is FPS. Now the system has diversity and you call them niche titles. Haha, you are funny man. Wll, guess what? KZ2 is a FPS...

Umm, it doesn't matter. The 360 has always had diversity just like any other system, even from its launch. Just because the titles are diversified doesn't mean they're popular or are going to be popular. Shooters, Racers, and Platformers are big genres. RTSs, JRPGs, and random downloadable content packs that aren't actually games are not. You're funny. Killzone 2 is an FPS, I'm glad you're able to recognize genres. I suppose you should get a cookie, considering your kinds words as well.
P.S. Whatever happened to Ninja Blade? Is that no longer a threatening title now that everyone knows it will be average?
|
Ninja Blade is a mid-march title, its too far away from KZ2. GTA:LAD is a 10 hour expansion.
If you can play it, its a game. SImple as that. The fact that you think its not a game is laughable. And its packing the GTA name, and thats a BIG name, far bigger then the name Killzone.
|
I'm aware of when Ninja Blade is coming out, but I remember it being used as a killer title. Maybe it was just for the beginning of the year and not to compete against Killzone 2. And it's "laughable" that I don't think Lost and Damned is a game? Should I consider the map packs for Halo, Call of Duty, or Gears of War games now? After all, I can play them. They're downloadable content. Thus, they must be games. Yet I don't remember people marking the release dates for the Legendary map packs as some sort of threat against the PS3. Don't forget that Halo 3 has sold more than GTA4 and has a larger online community. The name for GTA may be bigger than Killzone but that still has very little to do with sales of a DLC pack. Those who plan to buy Lost and Damned probably already bought GTA4 on the 360, and I doubt it will be that much more effective than when it was first announced god-knows-how-long-ago.

Dude, you are dellusional. It is not a map pack DLC, it has a brand new 10 hour campaign along with new characters, story and vehicles...you tell me that is the same as a 800 point MAP PACK? Clearly, you don't own a x360. I guess the PS3 DLC is all MAP PACK an furniture for HOME. J/K :)

Do you always resort to personal attacks and trolling whenever you don't know how to argue? I was saying how by your standards, a map pack could be considered DLC. It's like no one knows how to read. I do own a 360, as well as a PS3 and Wii. I don't let my console favoritism get to my head, and just because I'm willing to argue against stupidity doesn't mean I don't own _______ console. And now I'll have to warn you for trolling as well as respond to some more people. Great.
Hammer of Dawn: Well it really depends. If Lost and Damned is a separate retail game and can be played without accessing GTA4 first, then I would agree that it's a game. Main problem is that it's still not competition for Killzone 2. It will sell well, and I'm sure it will be popular over Xbox Live. But if GTA4 itself didn't provide huge boosts for the 360's hardware, what can we expect from its downloadable content? I've already argued why the games won't be much of a threat, and I'm not sure I know much about the other titles coming out at the time. Stoked...that's a snowboarding game right? Never even heard of Race Pro...you seem to be underestimating Killzone 2 quite a bit.
