Well, it's 90 at meta, which counts as AAA. I won't be going into personal opinion.

 

 

By whose rule? Fable II, Uncharted = AAA, Forza 2, while being a fun game, != AAA.

 I don't want to derail this any further so this will be my last reply here

Gears (on PC. though better on x360)
Gears 2
Halo 3 (will eventually hit PC. Or at least I think it will.)
Braid (coming to PC this year)
Mass Effect (on PC)
Ghost Recon (no idea. Guessing it's on PC)
Geo Wars 2
Forza 2
Left 4 Dead (better on PC)

Not to mention the extra year of exclusivity of Bioshock, the GTA IV expansion, and Fallout 3 DLC... The 360 has seen its fair share of AAA material (PC games and XBLA games included!!)

I don't get the console exclusive argument. I probably never will, either. Oh well.

By the accepted AAA rating rule I guess? =P

But yeah, Fable and Uncharted are both more AAA than Forza.

where is zenfolder? madskillz? starcraft -- the M$ trio

I'll respond for them... (if you guys don't mind)

- Every single PS3 exclusive have been hyped beyond belief. Its like the boy who kept crying wolf.. he was bound to be right one day.

- The PS3 has been on the market for over 2 1/2 years and is only receiving its 3rd AAA exclusive. Its sad and nothing to brag about

- Killzone 2 has been in production for so long that there's no way it will ever be a profitable game, $40-$60 million budget?

- Xbox fanboys here on the website and reviewers from the Xbox Magazine have commented on Killzone 2 being a great game.

- (my favorite response) pheww... FPS? That's so Xbox 1.0 .... :p

 

And I would like to finish this with saying Killzone 2 would be one of two games I would purchase if had a PS3

 Edited: rephrased last sentence

Coincidentially the xbox 360 has been on the market more than a year longer and only has 3 AAA exclusives which is shown by onyxmeths thread regarding exclusives... what you just did was slap yourself in the face with major fail.

I don't remember Haze being hyped beyond belief. Or even MS2 or R&C. Looks like the hype in this case was justified though, eh?

You have no idea what the budget for the game is. Why is that point even being brought up?

Overall, it sounds like you just couldn't keep the bitterness from your post.

 

http://ps3.qj.net/Rumor-Killzone-2-budget-doubled-because-of-Guerrilla-Games-/pg/49/aid/112518

 

There are many Killzone 2 budget stories on the net and they mostly point to 60 million.

 

There are also over 2 million "911 conspiracy" stories on the net and they mostly point to a 911 coverup.

 

Did you actually just link me to an article based off a rumour from Surfer Girl? 

From the article: "To top this off the game may be pretty but it's barely mediocre."

*Gazes at the IGN and Eurogamer review*

Yup, mediocre indeed...

"Then again, since this is a Surfer Girl report, we'll have to file this one under rumors."

You really should have read that line, then taken a moment to consider before clicking post.

 

As of 2006 the budget was set at $21 million  http://kotaku.com/gaming/sony/killzone-2-team-breaks-silence-217549.php

Add the surfer girl rumour that it doubled and the fact that this game as been in development for way to long (Since 2005) and you could easily assume its topped $40 million.

hahahahaha

There has to be WAY better signs and information pointing to KZ2's 40-60million budget, yet you chose surfer girl? Are you just lazy?
