CRank: 5Score: 5660

"It looks as though Sony have already lost the battle before it has begun in the Japanese market, as sales of the Xbox 360 are far greater than that of the PlayStation 3. "

The PS3 has like twice the install base of 360 in Japan. This is with the 360 being out a year longer.

I'm pretty sure the US boxart will be better, it usually is.

Gears of War 2 is AAA, Resistance 2 falls a little short of AAA. A strong B+ for Resistance 2. Maybe like an 88% or 89%.

The original Gears of War was well better than the original Resistance. And while Resistance 2 has closed the gap. It's not quite at the level of Gears of War just yet.

My prediction on how the final metacritic scores will end up

Gears of War 2 - 93 or 94
Resistance 2 - 88 or 89

Good effort from Resistance...

give it 10/10, Like Gaint Bomb. The site of that fatass who got fired from Gamespot.

Resistance 2 the only game worth buying? What about Little Big Planet?

metacritic turns this A for little big planet into an 85%

That Sony is choosing to take the battle to 360 in other regions. They feel that they can't loose Japan to 360.

The weekly sales of these consoles in Japan are still small. 3k or 4k difference a week isn't a big deal in the big picture. Especially considering that Microsoft has paid for all Japanese RPGs.

I understand how Sony is thinking here, but they have to be careful they don't let it go too far. Because even the turtle was able to beat the rabbit in a race ...

I think they figure that they can't loose in Japan against 360. And in the big picture, they aren't. The sales of both consoles are very small right now, and with a few moves like an anticipated game or a price cut the PS3 could be back on top in Japan.

Basicly Sony has neglected Japan in order to focus on other regions. I think from a gaming perspective the PS3 is doing great now. The only thing holding them back from "being all they can be" is that they're more expe...

Because it didn't have any drama in the story. Case closed

In Europe you can buy 4 XBOX 360's for the price of 1 PS3.

I think the PS3 is rolling now. The only problem is the price, it needs some price cuting to seriously start putting the 360 away.

That window was hard to open, how did it slip down like that after she got in?

I don't see the problem. Call of Duty 4 is the boss of Shooters this gen. It even took it to Halo 3's ass.

I have been wanting to see this. I think from the video trailer you don't actually get the sense of how the gameplay really is. From this you do.

For being gameplay, no bullsh*t. The graphics are great. The girl looks a little bit like a rubber model sometimes, but I think that's the most realistic person I've seen in a video game during "ACTUAL" gameplay. The movements and controlling, bring me back memories of Resident Evil of all games. You remember when you first ...

I can't stand hearing that jackass for that long. Anyway, nice to finally see the Resistance 2 pack in reality.

looks like every XBOX 360 game ever made. Shiny and arcade like. PS3 has calmer colors.

I played the demo, and I think this game blows.

It's a first person building hopper, with cliche cool characters. Like the Asian badass skater girl or something...

Sorry, no. There's a lot of contenders.

Fallout 3
Fable 2
Gears of War 2
Metal Gear Solid 4
Resistance 2
Call of Duty 5

I think one rises above them all. ****Little Big Planet****

in my opinion LBP is Game of the Year.

I'll say it right now.

5677d ago 11 agree2 disagreeView comment

Microsoft throws parties for the release of it's games.

Sony can't even get the word out of what the release date is.

I mean look at the way, Little Big Planet was handled.

I mean seriously, it seems like Sony is failing ion things you learn in day 1 of marketing school.

Sometimes I wonder if Sony even wants to win the console race.
