1. Infamous 2 (PS3) So you think this is going to be a better action adventure title than The Legend of Zelda Skyword Sword ok but you will probably be in the minority 2. Final Fantasy Versus 13 (PS3) You like jrpgs but instead of listing what many reviewers have already called a great rpg in Kingdom Hearts Birth By Sleep that comes out in September from the very same Nomura or a promising jrpg like the 3rd Birthday that will be out by the end of the year in Japan you choose to list FF vs 13 a jrpg that after 4 years still has no release date or real gameplay footage just to keep your list consistent with all PS3 titles. 3. Little Big Planet 2 (PS3) Ok you like platformers but apparently just the ps3 kind since Kirby and Donkey Kong got no love from you. But maybe you like the level creation aspects of the game so you get a pass on this one. 4. Killzone 3 (PS3) ok you are part of the minority that thinks Killzone is better than Halo. 5. Gran Turismo 5 (PS3) the only choice that made the most sense to me on this list. Every game you listed for the PS3 had an alternative that's just as good (excluding GT 5) that releases earlier. Even if you prefer the PS3 titles over the other games I listed the fact that those good games from the same genre are releasing much sooner in many cases should mean that they would make it on to your list before those far out PS3 games. And those are just a few examples I can think of many other titles that fit the genre of the PS3 titles you choose that are well respected and liked. |
Being in the same genre doesn't mean that the games are absolute substitutes. I look forward to Infamous 2 because I liked the first and from what I've seen they seem to be getting even better with the sequel while Zelda hasn't excited me since the N64. Vs. 13 could be his most looked forward to game because he likes the setting and promise of an overworld while Killzone 3 may be preferrable to Halo because he doesn't like that style of shooter and prefers something with a more realistic gameplay feel.
Finally, we are talking about personal preferences here and there is nothing that forces people to follow what most people prefer. This is why I am happy to be a fan of JRPGs far more than shooters even though your logic would mean I should be forced to love shooters.
