GoW is God of War. Since Gears of War is a younger franchise it should be either abbreviated as GeoW or just called Gears to avoid confusion in these discussions. And you have get used to GoW being God of War. |
The better franchises get the name so GoW=Gears of War
MS not doing good IP lol..... that one made me smile..... you probably meant on XBox only.... and even in that case it's still funny when you think about it... and look at the success in sales of most of it....

Yeah 1M - 3.5M isn't the masses...that's just a small group of people. But it doesn't matter anyway, i play games for my own enjoyment, it doesn't matter if it sells 1M or 10M. (unless better sales guarantee a sequel) |
Resistance and Motorstorm were early games that have been bundled with the console. As you may have noticed the sequels sold far less and other Sony games don't exactly have outstanding numbers.

How many of those can be bought on PC versus Console? I certainly have enjoyed many of those games since my 360 broke.

"In video game terms, RPGs are games that involve a form of separate battles taking place with a specialized battle system and the use of a system that increases your power through a form of points.
Sure, what you say is the definition, but the connotation of RPGs is what they are in video games." - dtewi

Is this just an excuse to flame MS / 360?
Your earlier argument was that Sony has put their name/money to some IP. Furthermore, you said this is why you prefer the PS3 over the 360. Well, Im just pointing out certain IP that MS has put their name/money on which is just as successful and also you cant get on the PS3. And whether you can get it on the PC, I dont see how this is relevant when MS still gave birth to those IP (although duh they are Games for Windows so MS still gets publishing fees).

Hahahaha^^^ this!

M$ won't be able to get any where near Uncharted 2, nor God Of war 3 (which is said to be a powerhouse) in terms of looks. But, what are graphics anyway other than eye candy.

Not at all. The reason I really do at the core like Sony as a video game maker has never been sales or anything else. Just the fact that they always have had wonderful franchises that would just get created out of thin air. Nintendo not so much. (Beyond their originals) and Microsoft not so much either.
And no 360 didn't give birth to these games if I can play them elsewhere. That's the point. Multi-platform games I wouldn't count. I can play Mass Effect, Gears and Alan Wake on PC. If Xbox 360 didn't exist, I could still play those games on PC for certain. You can't say the same about most of the PS3 exclusives.
That's the whole point. What IPs has Microsoft come up with for their original Xbox / 360 that actually have been 'new' and not just taken another companies exclusivity from a game? Halo and ... ? I mean hell even Halo I could play on PC.
