And then they say that Xbox fans are all over shooters, when they themselves ignore the greatness of God Of War cause its not a shooter. I really dislike hypocrates, even if the are fellow PS fans. Seems like God Of War would get the attention it deserves more on Xbox than it does on PS.

Disagree.

It's a hack and slash game at heart.

Eh, just be content with GoW being one of the most successful hack n' slash series ever.

That isn't really hard to do.

it does make a huge difference if you press the wrong button for QTE. it not only affects the bonuses you get depending on which you choose but it also effects your upgrades for marius. They must hav ebeen playing it on easy. On normal you get something if you miss it but you also also get penalize for pressing the wrong button. If you play it on th hardest difficulty ,, if you press the wrong button during the sequence,, you get no rewards and your timing determines  the amount of damage you , health you get , teh amount of focus you get and so on. In all honesty heavy rain story telling was flawed. they ended up creating alot of loopholes and creatign more questions rather then answering them. My dad who has never played a video game in his life,, watched m eplay the entire capaign  of heavy rain and he said that story is stupid and he kept on asking me questions  regarding ths story  which teh game didn't explain properly. However my dad enjoy watchiing Uncharted XD. The one after heavy rain does a much better job in story telling .

I am quick to hate on Ryse but never played it. Might one day if the planets ever align (resulting in a free Xbone).
BUT I have played Heavy Rain and found it incredibly overrated, so if Ryse is as 'good' as Heavy Rain then I (myself) will find it a very mediocre game.

Why don't just put that if the game was exclusive to Sony it would get more praise since that is what you mean? You just forgot that most of Ms fanbase praised Ryse and quite a few bashed QD games. I liked both.
But the best part is to see people whom console can't play cinematics games come here complain about a genre they don't care and curse against people who think they are being obnoxious.
About Ryse, if the only change was the web on the cover the reception would be the same. Now if you are talking about reddo the game from ground up with QD gameplay philosophy that would change reception as much as the change were for the better.
The difference between Ryse and HR isn't marketing, but what the game was set to be and how close have it achieved that.

That was just me playing around, mocking his phrasing. You'll notice that I didn't say a word about my opinion of the games. I have no direct opinion of either game, never having played either one. But it was clear what curl's opinion was, and I've heard a similar sentiment put forward by others who played the game and didn't like it.

I'm guessing you chose Quantic Dream over say, Telltale, because they develop exclusively for PlayStation which would bring a different kind of argument into the thread?

Because Telltale get universally praised a lot more than QD for "linear titles that focus on telling a story and very reliant on QTEs" (as you put it).

And that, I suppose, encapsulates the difference. If you do it well, like Telltale continue to do, then there is praise to be had. If you do it badly, like Beyond and Ryse did, then there is little praise. Not a whole lot else to say really.

The difference being that the Last of Us had good enough gameplay to not get in the way of the rest of the game or it's excellent story. Ryse is an average story with great graphics and crappy gameplay.
