How could you not like Shmups, you...monster! :(

And I'll tell you what I tell everyone. Wait for whatever happens the 21st. Of course you are not hyped: you don't know anything until MS says something, like the rest of us.

Who has the better exclusives is subjective and not worth discussing.

MS relies too much on Halo? I'd argue they do a great job supporting a very popular IP.

I beg to differ, and I feel Halo isn't what it used to be. Halo 1-3 were excellent, and I loved Reach, but I can't stand 4.

You're being subjective. You expect everyone to nod and agree?

Mass Effect 2 was also an exclusive for a period of time. So the series lost exclusivity after two releases.

Few exclusive IPs were produced? Gears of War, Crackdown, Alan Wake, Lost Odyssey, Blue Dragon, Ninja Blade, Kameo, Ninety-Nine Nights, Viva Pinata, Too Human, Kinect Adventures, Kinect Sports, Kinectimals, Kinect Joyride, and Dance Central. A noteworthy exclusive that didn't come to PS3, Left 4 Dead. I don't think MS broke any records, but that's not very few exclusives. Think before you spew bullshit.

What you consider good from Rare is subjective. If those same games Rare released on MS platforms were released on NIntendo platforms, those same games would have more fans.

Out of all those exclusives you mentioned, what isn't shovelware, and what can 100% of 360 owners buy? Not much huh? And timed exclusives don't count.

Plus if you really want to be technical, a third of the games left aren't exclusive, they are available on PC.

There are 5 or 6 worthwhile exclusive new IP's by Microsoft, but there are over a dozen crap ones, so being excited for the 720 because of 2 new IP's is a bit silly given the typical quality of their exclusives.

I think, of the big 3, you can only really look forward to a new IP by Nintendo because yes they are rare (rarer then MS new IP's), but they are almost always excellent, or at least good (In the case of Pandora's Tower).

What game did I mention was a timed exclusive? The games mentioned haven't moved to other consoles. I don't feel anything I mentioned is shovelware.

What can 100% of 360 owners buy? Uhmmm... all of it?

Being on the PC as well doesn't really matter in my opinion. PC isn't apart of the console war.

There are 5 or 6 worthile exclusive new IPs? That's more than a few like you claimed existed. Also, who cares if they're new IPs? Why do we have ignore new games of old IPs? Those aren't in demand?

I'm not going to argue who has the best new IPs. Its subjective.

Never could understand why people liked this one so much. I bought it, and it bore me to death half way through the game. Lost Odyssey is a much better title in my book.

Apples and oranges.

If we're gonna compare everything to Lost Odyssey than most JRPGs suck. :-p

I love Tales of Vesperia, its staying in my permanent collection.

I compare a JRPG to an other JRPG. =P

But yeah, apples and oranges if you compare the quality of both. Vesperia is miles behind Lost Odyssey. Just like you said, most JRPGs suck compared to it.

Whoa whoa whoa... I didn't agree that Vesperia is miles behind. Its just a different type of game.

I like Halo and Gears of War. Both shooters, but play very different and appeal to me for different reasons.

Gears of war is a third person shooter. Halo is a first person shooter...

I guess what you mean is that Lost Odyssey is a turned based JRPG, while the Tales series has more of an active battle system. That's the battle system, but inherently, they're both the same type of game. The structure of both games are the same, even if they use different systems here and there.

I think MS will release a decent launch lineup for the 720. Heck Call of Duty Ghosts and Battlefield 4 will likely push the system pretty well in North America, MS's most popular region, and they aren't even exclusive.

A lot of people like Halo 4, a lot of people feel Halo is being milked and are sick of it, a lot of people have opinions on games, I'm just saying mine as a 360 owner.

You don't feel Ninty Nine Nights is shovelware? Exactly what are your standards for gaming?

75% of 360 owners don't own Kinect, and Kinect is more expensive then compeditor systems (Wii). So half the games you mentioned aren't even accessible to most 360 owners, unless they buy what some would argue, a whole new system (Kinda like a Sega CD).

But PC DOES matter. If the best Microsoft exclusives are available on PC, then you don't really need a 360 to enjoy the best of gaming. Not all people have powerful computers, but years down the road a normal PC's specs will be able to play those "exclusives" so in reality, most people have access to PC-Console "exclusives."

As for old IP's, MS is kinda milking them..... Yes Gears of War, Forza, and Halo are pretty cool, but with a new game every 1-2 years, It's a bit much. Yes they are important, but without drastic changes to the franchises, they don't give much incentive to get a 720.

New iterations were most of the best selling games this gen.

I think you've said enough, sir. You're out of touch.

720 is rumored to be around $500, and I believe that's how much PS4 cost (might be a rumor). However 360 launched at $500, and it's likely that 720 will cost roughly the same, if not more, then the PS4. Heck 360 costs just as much as PS3 now since it hasn't been keeping up with price cuts, I don't think MS wants to cut profit to undercut Sony.

New iterations were most of the best selling games this gen? Last I checked Gears of War 3/Judgement sold much less then Gears 1 and 2, Halo 4 and Reach sold much less then Halo 3, and Forza Motorsport 4 sold less then FM3. When franchises like Uncharted, Fable, and Elder Scrolls are selling better and better, and those 3 key franchises are selling less and less, I think it's fair to say that they are making less of an impact then previous iterations, and might be indication that those franchises are "milked."

Let's not beat around the bush, if Uncharted games were released on PC the same day they were released on PS3, Xbox fans would not let it be called an exclusive.

See what i'm getting at?

Secondly, people bring up like 4 exclusive japanese/asian xbox 360 games, If you want me to walk into a store over here in Japan and take a picture of all the PS3 games you never even knew existed, we're talking 100+ here, that are exclusive to PS3, I will gladly do so.

What you're seeing is Microsoft's brief folley into attracting the japanese crowd, but the competition in that market from nintendo and sony are just insurmountable - A microsoft console will *never* sell better than sony or nintendo consoles here simply because of the types of games the company focuses on, if you're into dating sims and you live in japan, you have 1, maybe 2 on 360, 40-60 on PS3 and over 500 on PS2, which still sell well in major stores despite the ps2 being old hat.

Let's just be honest here, if you're into JRPG's or JShmups, buying an american console is like buying an Eco car because you're into the sounds of a classic V8.

It's amazing to me that after all these years, there is so much Xbox hate.

People ranting or saying the new Xbox will suck and Microsoft has already dropped the ball, when Microsoft has even shown the system to the public.

Amazing just amazing.

What is Playstation Nation afraid of the, Xbox 720 outdoing your beloved PS4.

Come on if that's it you can tell me I won't tell anybody.

I am glad Internet Gamers are in the minority because 77 Million people own Xbox 360. Which means nobody cares what you are saying. HA!

I am excited for the Xbox 720 and so are these guys. HA!

You do realize that some of these comments are coming from 360 supporters, right?  It has nothing to do with Sony vs. MS, but more MS vs. MS.  Many, including some on the 360's side, are worried that MS's future path is going to look like the one they have been on for the last 2 1/2 - 3 years.  One where core gaming has taken the backseat, while more focus is being put on entertainment features and Kinect games.  Where the casual crowd is catered to more, while expecting the core crowd to be fine with 1 release each year from an already established franchise.  Given the rumors we have been hearing, as well as MS themselves mentioning the future of TV and entertainment as two of the three main focuses of the console, doesn't bode well, IMO.

"This"

 

 


Ah, gif spamming. The internet equivalent of "I don't have any sort of half thought out response to that so I'll just call you an idiot and hope you think that passes off as an argument." Common trend among delusional fanboys, actually.

All i have to say is that the OP is a child and doesn't know how to respond to other people's arguments or posts.

The topic itself is childish as his statement is based off of nothing and pure fanboyism. 

 

It's good to be excited but when others share there opinion of doubt, dont be a child.

I am glad Internet Gamers are in the minority because 77 Million people own Xbox 360. Which means nobody cares what you are saying. HA!

Console gamers are the minority, 500 Million+ people alone own iPods, iPads and iPhones capable of running iOS games and apps, then an easy 500 Million+ Android devices with the same capabilities, and you're looking at a market with 1 Billion + owners, compared to that console sales are trivial.

Also, and i'm just being honest here, i stuck up for you at one point in this thread but seeing more of your responses just makes me feel like i wasted my breath, you're the 'make a loud statement then stick your fingers in your ear and shout la la la cant hear you' whenever someone says something you dont agree with, type, thus a lost cause.
