Just because Y game sells better than X doesn't mean those who bought Y automatically like it more than the X.

So to sum it up, when a AAA 360 exclusive beat a AAA PS3 exclusive, it was by a factor of 2 votes. After that AAA 360 exclusives could only beat Resistance (generic shooter, with a small fanbase), and a PSN remake?
Think it says it all.

I'm dying to give my opinion on this.
Both games are about the same level of quality, the reason why Gears sells better is because it's been around since 2006, was great from the start, marketing, and shooters just sell well on 360 (userbase likes them).
The only difference in quality between these two games is that:
Uncharted is an amazing single player game, which is only begining to explor multiplayer.
Gears is an amazing multipler game, which has a decent campaign for a shooter.
Opinions and sales aside, both franchises are amazing, they just appeal to different gamers. One game should not be clear cut better then the other, and in reality votes for these games should be on par.

i think dsage01 is right, i saw more uncharted fans around even tho gear sold more since just because of microsoft marketing

Which game is this PSN remake? And Warhawk was not a PSN game originally, it released later on PSN. Warhawk is awesome btw...The resistance games have pretty high metascores (almost AAA) and have both sold over 2 million units (R1 close to 4). Also, you forgot to mention Killzone 2 (or Uncharted, don't know which one you were talking about as they are both AAA). There are clearly more PS3 fans on here but you're downplaying the victories. |
I did downplay Warhawk, I didn't mean to, but it's nowhere near the level of quality as Halo, and it is a remake.
Killzone 2 and Uncharted are both AAA.
As for Resistance, Resistance 1 is probably the most bundled PS3 game, and considering it was the best game for the entire first year, it makes sense for sales to be high. Still 2 million natural sales each, that are both good games, and AAA. They just have a smaller fanbase then well basically any other AAA exclusive, and are largly critisized for being generic. It's not one of PS3's more respected franchises, and it's the only real game the best 360 exclusives managed to beat by a significant margin.
Also, a lot of PS3 games did deserve their victories, but many more titles should have come a lot closer in votes, and Reach should have beaten Killzone 3.

So Microsoft's best selling, best rated IP's beat a PSN game, a generic shooter, and inched pasts PS3's prized shooter by 2 votes like dsages said? I also recall the only landslide victory was Halo vs. Warhawk, Halo couldn't landslide victory anything but a pity match up, and yes dsage matched them up to give 360 a chance. dsage01, now you see the hypocrasy of this website. Also, are you sure Mass Effect beat Uncharted 1? I voted in that one and I recall UC1 beating Mass Effect. |
Halo 3 crushed Warhawk, a disk based game, why ar you down playing it as just a psn title.
what game would that be thats generic?
Xbox prized shooter beat out Sony's prized shooter.
i dont see how this constest is at all indicative of this site being ps3 biased. so far most outcomes have been pretty expected and not out of the ordinary

Warhawk isn't comparable to Halo 3. Warhawk is comparable to maybe CE Anniversary or Left 4 Dead. If Halo 3 lost to Warhawk....that would show something.
Also no, 360's prized shooters did not beat Sony's. Killzone 3 beat Halo Reach and Left 4 Dead 2 by large margins, Uncharted 2 beat everything. Microsoft was only able to make a clear victory against Resistance.
I'm not sure about you, but judging the the dismal amount of pre-orders for Resistance, the small amount of hype about the games on the forum, and the ommition of the game as a nominee as the best franchise for Sony elimination game. I don't think Resistance is one of PS3 fans most prized shooters.
It's good, very good, but I bet you most PS3 fans appreciate Killzone and Uncharted more. I feel Resistance is to PS3 fans what Left 4 Dead is to 360 fans. It's third best.
Microsoft never had a real chance against PS3 fans prized gems (Uncharted, GT, Killzone, God of War, and Heavy Rain).

fair enough.
but i never said Warhawk was comparable to halo (i didnt vote that round because i havent played warhawk, and i i dont like halo). but halo deserved to win, which it did. i was just saying you were downplaying warhawk, which was a full retail game, later released on psn, like inFamous. and its hardly a remake, i barely resembles the psone game. its kind of like the new Twisted metal game coming out, more of a reboot.
also i was talking about halo beating Killzone 2.
Killzone 3 seems to be extremely popular for ps3 fans, my self included, its my favorite shooter of this gen.
and your right the resistance franchise is the tep child, though an awesome one, gets great reviews, and people like my self may be waitng for the 3dtv bundle to preorder.
my point was that the results of each round, have been pretty non biased, and predictable.

More PS3 fans on this site, these threads support my claim.
