But-but-but the 360 doesn't have any exclusives next year other than GeoW3.  PS3 line up for 2011 is infinitely better.  VGC community told me so.


Yeah!  The PS3 line up for 2011 has too many good games!!  We're all going to go broke next year!  Curse you Sony for making us buy so many good games!!

This is my problem in supporting 5 Gaming devices... it's impossible to buy all good games they have... so i stick with the one that have the most games I like... and everyone can guess which is...

Well you're in Brazil so I'd imagine the only game you'd be playing is Beach Booty Bongo Bash.

meaning?

That isn't my argument, and that's not why Halo is in a different league, the franchise speaks for itself (Halo that is)

I'm not debating the games quality, I'm sure they're all very good games, but they were overhyped, meaning they'd never achieve what the people here would have you believe (and all over the net) like I said, apart from Reach, I don't see any other 360 games being the same, perhaps Alan Wake in some respects.

FM3 were way overhyped by the publisher... saying they never bullshot (and admited they did later) and that they would be muuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuch better than any GT would ever be... did they live to the hype? just in the eyes of people who just see what they want...

So everyone that sees Forza 3 as better than GT5 is seeing what they want to see? lol


No... but anyone that say they didn't overhyped or that they never bullshoted, or that FM3 is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay better than GT5 is really dumb... preffer one or another okay, but treat one as a atari game and the other as a car itself is plain stupidity

Twisted Metal, M.A.G, Infamous and Resistance are hyped by it's own developers so not like it's against the law or anything when Turn 10 decides to do it.

Wait... The Xbox launched 10 Years ago?

This means Halo: Combat Evolved also launched 10 years ago...

I am now totally convinced that a Halo: CE Remake using the Reach Engine will be released next year. Totally convinced.



Shaky, Shaky , Shaky and if you have cut throat insurance you could be paying for this your self.

Yeah, who would have thought in Jan this year would have turned out better SW wise for the 360 ... same will happen next year IMO despite the flood of PS3 games (of which most will be delayed or turn out not as great as hyped to be)

The flood of PS3 games aren't about sales, but variety and offering. "Most" games won't be delayed "overhyped" (though you can't really have a realistic opinion without owning the system).

It's just in past years, the 360 had more lined up than 2011 looks to have. It's not an insult, just an observation, and people who are fair rarely comment on it.

Wasn't talking about sales remotely. PS3 had several games delayed this holiday into next year, so much so it only had GT5 :-S and even that wasn't a dead cert only a month ago.

I didn't say the games were bad, just overhyped (and they are, don't need to play them to guage fan reaction)

At your last comment, wrong. Until E3 2009 MS rarely gave out news on upcoming games, but decided to for 2010 for some reason.

Well overhyped is subjective. And again, I wouldn't expect a realistic opinion without experience, but I guess that's just me. The only other game delayed was LBP 2, which was smart given what it had to go up against. Considering what kind of year PS3 had, I don't think anyone is going to complain about what it did in 2010. And outside of Halo: Reach, MS didn't have many core games for the holiday either  :-S Doesn't matter though, as neither fanbase was complaining.

Your last sentence isn't true. I was excited about plenty of upcoming games in 2007 & 2008 for the 360 because of pre-hype. Microsoft doesn't announce as many games as Nintendo or Sony, true, but they do have game announcements. As I've said, even sites backing MS have noticed that 2011 looks a little empty at the moment. With the VGAs, however, I'm sure they've got stuff to announce, which is great.


I don't think that's just you as most people will agree with you. WIthout experience, the best somebody can have is second-hand knowledge. I can read many negative reviews of a game and believe that it is overhyped, but I don't know it is overhyped until I play it. Without playing the game, I have no way to judge whether the reviews are accurate because I have no experience with which to compare the claims. The reviews could just be wrong, but I have no way of determining if they are wrong unless I have the background knowledge gained from playing it myself.
