Forums - Sony - Is 2008 the year of PS3

Galaki on 07 October 2008

I think '08 is the year that shows whether PS3 can win the second spot. It's looking grim seeing how XboX 360 is getting so many games.

The PS3 has not closed the sales gap at all, in fact it's widening again. So no, it doesn't look like 2008 is the year of the PS3 unless they pull a price cut.

 

get ur facts straight first the ps3 actually outsold the 360 this year and will do better this holiday and QUOTE ME the 360 will never beat the ps3 in yearly sales in Hardware

 

Done.

What the heck does the "year of the X" mean regarding a console, anyway? Too vague.

Considering the PS3 will never be at top...no year will be the year of the PS3.

 

 Im going to quote you on that soriku, in any case in terms of games, the PS3 has had the most quality titles release this year than any other console so far, and its true, I mean GTA IV, GT5 Prolauge, DMC4, MGS4, Wipe out HD, Ratchet quest for booty, and tons more I really havent looked into.

Hmmm, DMC 4 and GTA IV was also on Xbox 360. Don't forget these 360 exclusives: Ninja Gaiden II, Lost Odyssey, Tales of Vesperia, and at some extent Too Human and Infinite Undiscovery, etc.

The holiday line-up is almost as strong with titles like Halo Wars, Fable 2, Gears of War 2, Left 4 Dead, Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3, etc.

Don't forget XBLA, with titles like Galaga Legions, Castle Crashers, Soul Calibur, etc.

It really depends on what genre you're looking for. There's a lot of diversity for both consoles, and everyone has to agree.

Sigh.

Red Alert 3 is also coming out for PS3. Halo Wars is not in the holiday lineup, it's being released in 2009. Too Human is widely regarded as awful, Ninja Gaiden 2 is nowhere near anything else in the series.

It is true though. There are many good games for both consoles, but you have to admit that 2009 is looking MUCH better for the PS3 than for the X360.

2009 will easily be year of the PC. But PS3 might do a better challenge against X360.

 

The year of the PC ... I doubt it because everybody complains about the piracy of the PC users...



 

Evan Wells (Uncharted 2): I think the differences that you see between any two games has much more to do with the developer than whether it’s on the Xbox or PS3.
