It's too bad that Microsoft isn't in this to just make money, but to stop Sony from taking over the living room, which IMO they are doing a pretty good job.

I honestly think that Microsoft is willing to lose more money than that, especially if you start looking at the operating income of their other departments that depend on Windows.

the only reason there is an XBOX is because microsoft didnt want sony to grow into an even bigger giant.

 

 

 

 So I guess this will mean Microsoft will no longer have a reason to be in console wars from they're point of view now that Sony has been *****-slapped back to last place by Nintendo?



GOTY Contestants this year: Dead Space 2, Dark Souls, Tales of Graces f. Everything else can suck it.

"Lol. Even if they said that. They also said many times b4 that FF13 wasn't going to see the light of day on the 360. Am I not correct????"

Maybe but do you really expect the dvd of The Dark Knight to have the same audio and visual clarity as the Blu-Ray version? It will be much the same with Final Fantasy XIII. The actual gameplay segments might be identical. But the cinematic parts which are the most important parts of an FF game will not be.

 

Yea. I would agree with you that there will most likely without a doubt be huge differences. And I remember reading an article about the compression thing that they are facing. I also remember reading that they don't even have the 360 devkits yet that am guessing they will nneed for porting better. They haven't even started porting yet and yet they are already thinking about space issues, which isn't a good sign for 360 in the future.

Just like at what Id Software said about thier game "Rage" that coming to PS360/PC http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rage_(game)

I was just stating for the guy who said that SE said that the 2 would be completely the same. They've made a huge lie in the past and you can most likely expect one in the future.

How do we know if a Sony monopoly would be any different from a MS one? You don't think Sony has tried to get a monopoly going? If you believe that than you closed your eyes to the last generation where Sony practically genocided Sega. People say it was pirating but really most of the damage was Sony. So far the latest one to draw blood is Sony, and to me it's clear Sony wants everyone else out. Microsoft so far hasn't shown me the same, they just want Sony out. Personally I don't want either of them out. But really any of you that think you are making a better choice by wanting the other one out are just trying to choose between two evils.

 

Am going with the SONY evil. Their side has Jack, InFamous, and Killzone ^_^ LOL

Been hearing that for 3 years since the 360 launched, I hear all about its potential havent seen one game that proves it.  Yes KZ2 looks awesoe as does Geow2.



PS3, WII and 360 all great systems depends on what type of console player you are.

Currently playing Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2, Fallout 3, Halo ODST and Dragon Age Origins is next game

You can spin it and spin it and spin it even some more. It will be on the Xbox360 simultaneously in europe and usa.

 



Imagine not having GamePass on your console...

Rage is spinning cause they want MS to drop the liscense fee on multiple DVDs so they are trtying to shame them.
