We might be angry over something loosing exclusivity, FFXIII, DMC4, but not of something that has been seen as the property of another system, such as Halo3, Mario, etc. That is exclusive to other console owners. Always wanting what belongs to SONY. Our gripe with loss of exclusivity is warrented seeing as it means not as good a game if it were exclusive. other fanboy's wining is unwarrented becuase they only do that because they are cheap and dont want to spend the well placed bucks for a PS3, besides they have spent so much time bashing the PS3 that it would feel hypocritical to get one, and it is. But you all will see in the long run. The Wii's steam will slow down onece people realize there will be no new games for it. The 360 is gasping for air already, throwing money wherever they can to steal the PS3's momentum. The PS3 is all powerful, it cannot, will not fail...

And even though it has not been anounced I would geuss it to be PS3 exclusive becuz

-PS3/Wii would be a huge let down

-Tetsuya Nomura Directs it and he Hates the 360, but loves PS3. He is "Fond" of the Ds but not the Wii as many seem to try and translate him to be.

-Exclusive to Wii is rediculous seeing as RPGs fanbase stronghold lies on the PS3. Majority of early adopters bought the PS3 for just such a game, as well as FF.

Dream on people...

That is definitely not the case.  The internet exploded over FFXIII's multiplatform deal because it was a bad sign for the PS3.  Go read any of the many whines made when the announcement happened, it's all about how the PS3 is no longer the must have system, and Sony fans being pissed off about it.

The Wii will not lose steam, because it continues to come out with bigger games than any other system.  PS3 has yet to come up with an answer to Wii Fit, Wii Sports, and Mario Kart Wii.  The biggest game coming this holiday is also very likely Animal Crossing, and the best selling game from 09' will be Wii Sports Resort.  It's not about games you like - remember that people who'd go on forums like this are not representative of the majority.  Most people here probably didn't touch the DS until it got the support it has now, and by that time it was already a huge success due to Nintendogs, Brain Age, etc.  "Casuals" determine the outcome of these console wars, not the "hardcore" minority.

As for KH3, it's just impossible to say what will become of it.  It comes down to Disney & Money (Wii's side) vs Nomura (PS3 side).  Until something is said about it, there's just no point speculating.  You also talk about the RPG fanbase being on the PS3, while it's impossible to tell at this point.  Wait until Eternal Sonata on the PS3 and ToS:DoTNW on the Wii come, as that'll at least give us some numbers to go by.

This should change with Socom coming out. Also, I think by next year we will see the headset bundled in since Sony will have their "official headset" finally. Or we might even see it bundled with this game.

Well it looks good from the graphics perspective...
(Does not look so good as Crysis Warhead of course)

But Gears of War 2 is more interesting and is more innovative from what i read in the Gamespot preview

 

Gears of War and Killzone are two different types of games. Gears of War 2, will include meat shields, movable cover, and chainsaw battles. Thats hardly "innovative", but its "evolutionary".

 

Killzone 2- if you read the OP has the badges system. Where you can combine two skill trees into one character. Like an RPG. Thats innovative and revolutionary. If you compare the Gears 2 MP previews to the Killzone 2 MP previews, there is no contest as to which journalists like more.

 

This is true.

I think this is too funny. See here how Selnor attacks someone who is actually aggreeing with him. Selnor, I think you have an issue my friend. You just might need some help.

On topic now:

talkingparrot, I told you its not worth it here. THEY AREN'T GOING TO GIVE YOU A BREAK. No one will look at this objectively. To accept that Killzone 2 might actually be a success that will compare to Halo or Gears kills these fanboys on the insides. VGChartz is a loosely moderated flamefest. You ever think people like Selnor could give an UNBIASED opinion? Look at how he responded to STAGE, a fellow fanboy, for even mentioning the word "cult" in reference to Halo.

Don't worry about it. Killzone 2 and LBP simply have no equals for what they are trying to accomplish anywhere else. The fanboys can like it, or bash it blindly. Either way reviews and sales will speak for themselves. Just remember that its almost possible for someon to type "Game A looks better than B." Better is a matter of opinion, even if their opinion is complete crap, lol.

I think most people who don't own a 360 would clearly see that Killzone 2 looks miles better than anything else, and thats been the general opinion on the internet of late. VGChartz is a place for sales information, not for news, and DEFINITELY not for unbiased opinions. (Haha Selnor, watta joker.)

You used the word "might actually", which everyone (including the hardcore Xbots) will agree with you. Killzone 2 MIGHT ACTUALLY be a success!! I admit it.

The problem is that you're one of the few that says "might". For example look at forevercloud's previous post with "The PS3 is all powerful, it cannot, will not fail..." ... its that mentality that the PS3 is a god that drives everyone else nuts.

This amazing belief that the PS3 cannot fail is weird, and I actually hope that the PS3 does well so that all these poor souls don't do anything drastic if the PS3 ends in third place.

Yeah I agree, it might be a total flop. But what parrot has done with this thread is show people previews where people have said otherwise.

Hes showing that people who have actually played the game seem to like it and that this game will actually perform well. All indication is pointing towards Killzone 2 being a success, and until we see a huge flaw with the game we should give it the benefit of the doubt I would think. A lot of people are writing off this game because the first one underperformed, and are completely ignoring the screenshots and previews.

I don't think the PS3 means a game is fail-proof (HAZE, lol), but I also don't think a lot of the bashers are even trying to be unbiased when looking at this game. That was the purpose of this thread, IMO. He was saying "Hey, I know you all hate the PS3, but look at the positive screen and impressions from Killzone 2."

(Not directed at you Gebx, just general) If the PS3 is such a failure, then why not let it fail on its own? Don't sit here and bash anything positive that comes from it, or bash posters for actually not being negative but positive for once. If there was no "fanboy war" this thread would be totally exceptable and others would thank him for putting them on to a promising game with similar qualities of their console favorites. If hes not bashing a console (which he did not do in the OP) lets at least try to approach these things with an open mind.
