Forums - Gaming - Who has the best fall lineup? Category=Action/Adventure

I'm basing my info on the IGN release dates as they stand from yesturday, 9/3. Things can change; I know. My differentiation between genres may not suit your style perfectly; so fine. I will not be including Playstation 2 because it's last gen, so too bad. Do the work yourself if it's that critical.

Now that all of that is out of the way, here's the point. It's hard to say which system is always the best, because sales do not necessarily entail quality, and gems can pop up on even the most awful of consoles. I'm gonna go genre by genre and show the fall lineup. You guys then discuss who rules in that area. If the release dates get updated by new games added or pushed into next fall, we can reconvene and decide again what that means for each console. I have taken a few liberties by not adding any games specifically for children, such as Spongebob and Ben 10, and will not include any games that have to do with hunting because I figure no one wants to argue over that anyways. If I'm offending any hunting game fans, too bad. Spend your money more wisely in the future. So without further ado...

Here's the real meat of this fall and to me it's a no brainer. 360 has only Naruto as an exclusive. Wii has Soulcalibur Legends and Rygar, both of which I'm iffy about. PS3 has Heavenly Sword, Uncharted, and Folklore. I feel no need to argue. On a sidenote however, Assasin's Creed will obviously own all of these games.

yay the ps3 gets a catagory!



                 With regard to Call of Duty 4 having an ultra short single player campaign, I guess it may well have been due to the size limitations of DVD on the XBox 360, one of various limitations multi-platform game designers will have to take into consideration-Mike B   

Proud supporter of all 3 console companys

Proud owner of 360wii and DS/psp              

Game trailers-Halo 3 only dissapointed the people who wanted to be dissapointed.

Bet with Harvey Birdman that Lost Odyssey will sell more then Blue dragon did.

So its

Nice showing for the PS3 in this category. Uncharted is a delicacy.



Seriously....like the only list I've seen where I want three games from a systems list and they're all exclusive. Assassins Creed might be cool....But Folklore, Heavenly Sword, and Uncharted are going first. Possibly tandem. It also seems to be one of the most cut and dry decision...maybe just because they're exclusive.
