| CGI-Quality said: @ Onyx Well...they do have similarities as well. However, people buy a Playstation for MGS because of it's unique experience: story/cutscenes/comical refences Snake, etc etc... That's what I think he meant by differentiating itself. Now if MGS goes multiplat, that "differentiating" is gone! But, you have good points here so no need for me to challenge you further :) |
Actually Onyx was right on the money with what I meant. No doubt MGS4 is a great game and pushes units and is pretty unique but it's not genre unique. Twisted Metal is pretty genre unique. I'm sure there are other car combat games but they are probably only on PC and they have no name value to market as a substitute.
MGS4 is like Gran Turismo, Killzone 2, God Of War, etc. They may be great games that will sell units but they have pretty popular substitutes in the same genre on other conoles. They wont stretch the genre reach of the PS3 either. LBP on the other hand does, as well as Twisted Metal will.
