Forums - Microsoft - Is this X360 exclusive Fall 2009 lineup enough to battle Sony?

Do 360 fans in this thread believe that a game announced in June at E3 will ship before december?

Uncharted 2 alone is better than the 360 fall line up. Heavy Rain looks unreal and will not be a "haze". New R & C looks good. We don't know anything about MAG though.

MS heavily relies on 3rd party exclusives because they don't have the first party strength that Sony does.

Sure, you won't see footage of Modern Warfare 2 until June, and that's going to outsell every PS3 exclusive.

No, Uncharted is another Resistance/Motorstorm, excessively bundled, then the sequel tries to stand on its own and fails massively.

Heavy Rain has bomb written all over it, it's a Quantic Dream game and it's a 1st party PS3 game, both of which have a history of underperforming at retail.

If anything MS 1st party is well ahead of Sonys, Forza is a bigger series than anything Sonys launching this year and Halo is in a league of its own, that#s the PS3's biggest problem. A lack of blockbusters, it's mostly fillers, Sony just likes to pretend it's blockbuster.

 

 

This.

PS3 fans said this last year with LBP, R2, Motorstorm 2, Socom but they all got outsold badly by MS exclusives.

I agree on the sales front. But NOT on the quality front.

I'm sorry but calling Uncharted and Heavy Rain are  NOT fillers. They are blockbuster games.

Even Res and Motorstorm are worthy of beeing called good titles. But dont put down quality titles. :)

GT5 - Not coming out in 2009, Sony confirmed this when it was absent from their 2009 Fiscal lineup

Infamous - Not a holiday title, it's coming in June or Early July

GOW3 - Not 2009

Qantum Theory - Ok, but it looks pretty bad

Jak & Daxter: The Lost Frontier - A PSP game? Really?

GTA5 - Doesn't exist.

WKC - This came out last year

What kind of fanboy spin is this ,lol? Holiday title my ass! it's a 2009 lineup game.  It's about the years lineup we're talking about here. And WKC came out last year? lol Awww sure it did and kicked ALL JRPGs released on 360 in Japan in their collective ass and will do so again this year in USA/EU.

About GOW3, nothing's been confirmed and it has a good shot at 2009. Yeah you wish it wasn't coming so soon, but believe me in this : Microsoft wishes a lot harder than you GOW3 is not 2009, they don't need your prayers.

Gran Turismo 5 (See GOW3) I admit it's most likely it won't make it.

Quantum Theory is still 2009, lol to your comment, looks at least as much interesting as Ninja Gaiden 2 last year.

The above poster exaggerated with GTA5 and the J&K game, but you certainly beat him in the fanboymeter.

About MAG, I doubt that will get released this year, but let's wait and see.

Not with those titles mentioned in the OP, at E3 MS will announce new games but then again so will Nintendo as well as Sony. Halo ODST will be huge of course but the same cannot to said about those other games mentioned in the OP.

Let's not start about Forza aka the pack in, just no point in doing so. Also do not compared a pack in to a bundle, think everyone knows what comparison is coming. :O

If you want to compare the first 2 quarters, that's fine.

So far it's Ninja Blade, Star Ocean IV, Race Pro, Stoked, Halo Wars and GTA:IV : The Lost & Damned vs. Killzone 2, MLB:The Show 2009 and inFamous in June.

Fair? Even if you include inFamous, the PS3 is still behind.

But the topic is about "fall lineup", so you're grasping at straws here.

Plentys been confirmed about gow, Sony refusing to confirm a release date when Mag, Heavy Rain, Uncharted 2 and Ratchet all announced at the same time or after having confirmed dates speaks volumes, with a Holiday lineup of filler, i'd want people to thing god of war 3 was coming out soon too.

Oh, why's that. god of war isn't even a big franchise, big for ps3 and playstation, but not big in the real world. It's got about as much sales "power" as the typical clancy game.

LOL Most likely? Sony's been unveiling games 2 years in advance and there hasn't been a shred of media, touting games that won't be out before March 1st 2010 and they're planning a stealth release of their biggest IP. LOL. Of course it isn't going to make it.

Yeah, I didn't mind him "keeping" quantum theory, but...it looks rubbish. I'm pretty sure there's going to be a few random japanese games that are exclusive but otherwise not worth the plastic they're pressed on.

Onechanbara: Bikini Samurai Squad anyone?Nice for filling out the library, but you wouldn't list it as a killer app...unless you were desperate.

LOL What? Truth = fanboy meter? Is it really so bad PS3fans need to add PSP games to their lineup?

lol you dirty troll. talking about uncharted bundles then conveniently leaving out the fact forza 2 was the heaviest bundled game this gen (besides wii sports/play)

Ok......................................................................................................................... Dude, you already broke the fanboymeter , no use to try to set a new world record with further nonsense while the device is out or order.
