Saint's Row 2 for me. But I voted for Crackdown because I am a horrible fanboy >.>

For once i gotta say i like a ps3 exclusive thats not an underdog nor a japoanese mad title.

inFamous was spectacular! it had lots of destruction and chaos, there was always something being blown up by lightning and thunder.

Cole is officially Sony's Super Hero type character. i also like the fact you really can choose between good and evil in this game.



The Ballad of Gay Tony



It's not a contradiction whatsoever. Most of the "others" are 360 titles (whether exclusive or not), and just as good or better than inFamous.

inFamous is the only one that's a PS3 exclusive, and while I think it's an exceptional game - one that makes me want a PS3 - there are many other ones that are as good or better.

You should have included Fallout3, Oblivion, Farcry 2, Assassins Creed 2, they are all sandbox by definition. I spent the most time with Oblivion, if that determines which one I liked best, followed by Fallout3. I just finished Farcry2, I thought it was great but needed some major tweaking, AI was dumb at some things (a guy in opel would ram your truck w/top mounted machine gun/gernade launcher, not too smart. And EVERYONE wants to kill you, ram you with their vechicle, no questions asked) and smarter at others ( they knew how to take cover, flank, fairly well). The graphics, and the flamethrower were fantastic. I'm still playing AC2, it's looks to be one of the best also. Haven't played Infamous.

Have you played it? (inFAMOUS)

As my statement earlier implied, I have played all of the games in this poll. Haven't played all the way through most of them, but I've played enough to have an idea of every one.

I voted for Crackdown. I had no choice--must. Collect. Orbs.



Could I trouble you for some maple syrup to go with the plate of roffles you just served up?

GTA IV. The critics told me.

real answer - the only one I've played this generation is The Godfather: Blackhand Edition for Wii, which I would probably choose over all of those just because of the motion controls.




If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy

GTA 4. It was a slight disappointment but that doesn't mean its not a good game. Definitely up there as one of the best sandbox games this gen (there haven't been many other good sandboxes either).




lol even before answering I knew a Sony exclusive would be in the lead...anyways to each their own...

I choose GTA IV, second place Crackdown, hated SR2...
