PS3 has a better overall list of games for 2008 combined including MGS 4, Little Big Planet, Tekken 6, Haze, Socom:Confrontation, Resistance 2, Gran Turismo 5: Prologue and GTA IV (360 also has GTA IV). But Gears of War 2 is the best HD exclusive game that will sell the most copies this year. MGS 4 will sell 5 million copies. But Gears of War 2 will sell over 7 million copies alone.
Versus: Lost Odyssey, Ninja Gaiden 2, Fable 2, Too Human, Gears of War 2, Banjo Kazooie 3, Viva Pinata 2, Infinate Undiscovery, Tales of Vesperia and Halo Wars. Fail to see how PS3 has the best list.

 


Once again it's completely subjective. I can definitely see how the PS3's titles are better.


Yeah me too! Especially Haze that just recieved a 4.5 from IGN... /sarcasm

You can't say because most of those games haven't been released. They could all turn out to be horrible.


So could any game, but you clearly don't want to talk about this topic if you want to be that negative.


It's not negativity I just don't like when people do things like that. He says he can definitely see how the PS3 line-up is better when it's more of a toss up between the two. No one can tell which is better for sure until all the games have been released. Do you think that is a wrong assumption on my part?

Lets look at it this way. So far PS3 exclusives are major hit and miss. LAIR, Heavenly Sword, Haze were all games people were absolutely sure would rock on here (well fanboys anyway). Yeah Uncharted, Resistance, Motorstorm did good but put up against the 360 list? Even GT5:P disapointed with simulation fans online. On the other hand, 360 has a very good Hit rate with their exclusives. Bioshock, Mass Effect, Halo 3, GOW, Forza 2, LO, Blue Dragon, Eternal Sonata(It's been exclusive for nearly a year), Dead Rising, Ace Combat 6. The 360 is more reliable with both new and old IP's so far. So when you look to the future, it's more reasonable to think that things will stay the same. Considering Haze reviews are like a couple of days old, my point sticks.

 


Heavenly sword is one of the best games I ve played this gen so far and I ahve played most of the AAA games on both PS3 and 360 (heavenly sword was 7-8 hours long but and epic story with beatiful graphic and very solid gameplay.Lair was crap but heavenly sword is a different story)

 yeah it's better than Lair, but still failiure in terms of hype as killer ap. and third behind DMC and NG

With 2 PS3s and 1 360 in my house I can indeed say, yes, yes it is. The year of the PS3 is not 2008. I've been saying 09 since last year, we can hope.

Though not on a next gen console, I would even take God of War: COO over Heavenly Sword. The problem with Heavenly Sword was, for all the hype it got, you would think it was on the level of God of War, which it isn't....not even close IMO.

wtf,just LBP owned alls 360 exclusive??,



SpartanFX on 20 May 2008

@selnor

I own both DMC4 and heavenly sword and to me heavenly sword is one head and shoulder above DMC4,,,the story alone makes the difference ,,,,,not to mention that HS has better graphics(atleast to me) .DMC 4 had some last gen touches like the blue crystal web thing that formed on the walls in the fight sequences.HS had much more destructible stuff in the environment.

after beating both DMC4 and HS ,,,I give DMC4 an 8/10(it had so many last gen touches),,and I give 9/10 to heavenly sword

Fable 2 and Halo Wars, this year!?

I'll wait for more confirmation from E3.


Why does everyone put so much into E3?

Last year KZ2, MGS4, Splinter Cell Conviction, Haze, LBP, SingStar, WiiFit, and Lost Odyssey all appeared at E3 and were supposed to come out in 2007...  Not many actually made it.  Lost Odyssey and WiiFit released only in Japan.

E3 is a hype machine that usually doesn't pan out into reality.  E3 is about console makers making the most believable "game will ship" lies.
