Gears 3 is all they really need. It'll outsell anything Sony brings to the table for Q3/Q4 2011.

Not sure what else. Left 4 Dead 3 sounds about right. Seems a bit early for Splinter Cell 6 but who knows.

Gears 3 will sell more, but quantity =/= quality which is what we're all discussing :L


But gears is quality, and IMO it beats anything sony has to offer.

So you are willing to make a bet that Gears 3 will ...hm lets see..

score a higher Meta against all of the following games =
Killzone 3, LittleBigPlanet 2, The Last Guardian, InFAMOUS 2, Twisted Metal, Resistance 3, Motorstorm : Apocalypse, SOCOM 4 and possibly an Uncharted 3?

Kudos if you're correct.

Or are you simply implying your opinion and not the overall reception of the game?

Well I did say it was better IMO, but gears 2 did beat most of those games' prequels in ratings and it was horribly buggy, with all the improvements I've seen I'm sure Gears 3 can beat most if not all of them in ratings as well as sales.

Yeah but I already said sales =/= quality.

Gears 2 has a meta of 93 as oppose to its predecessor which is on 94.

LBP is on 95 meta and the second one seems a lot better.
Killzone 2 is on 91 meta and thats with all the "heavy, grey looking, delay" critique it has gotten.

Since im in the KZ3 beta I, just like you said about Gears 3, can say that KZ3 can beat most if not all of that in the ratings.

Ico and Shadow of the colossus are old games and have few meta scores but they are considerd as the PS2's best games. The last guardian could be very damn good.

Resistance is taking another turn and unlike the previous games that was released with a year gap (Resistance 1 on '07 and Resistance 2 on '08) Resistance 3 is launching at '11. And yet the Resistance series went up from R:FOM compared to Resistance 2 in terms of meta as R:FOM is 86 and R2 is 87, making me believe R3 can be damn good.

Etc etc. My point is, Gears 3 has to beat every single one of them. If it manages to get a meta above Gears 2 and above Gears 1, its still on par with LBP1. And god forbid Naughty dog releasing Uncharted 3 at '11.

Opinions are opinions, Im talking subjective reviews which on meta is a compilation of opinions based on people who deliver their experiences of games for a living. Do you wish to do a bet that Gears 3 won't beat every single exclusive Sony has up for 2011 in terms of Meta?
