"Multi-Console games do indeed sell more on the 360 these days."
No.
That is just a lie Xbox fans parrot constantly.
Rocky start?
The PS3 has outsold the 360 every single year it has been on the market and is the 3rd fastest selling console in history.
It is amazing to when you even are generous and estimate the number of replacement Xbox 360s that have been bought.
50-60 percent failure rate. The duplicate Xbox 360 has to be easily in the 5-10 million or more range. Just about every Xbox 360 owner talks about 3-4 different consoles they have owned. Buying new ones each time because they heard the new model finally fixes the RRoD problems.
"360 is done, obsolete and going casual"
Not really any other choice for Microsoft.
There was no way they were going to spend more billions on new hardware after eight year long Xbox train wreck.
Slapping on some PS3 Eye Toy style motion controls really is all they had left to do other than just giving up and going back to focusing on PC gaming.
Can't compete with the PS3 exclusives - 21 first party Sony studios...
"Ok can we stop referring to VGchart??"
vgchartz will most likely give up after the PS3 is far enough ahead in worldwide sales that they can no longer fake their sales numbers enough because even the most hardcore Xbox fans would balk at them.
Sad that it took so long for vgchartz to shown for the lying frauds they are. An absolutely disgusting episode in gaming history.
"because third-party exclusives are a dying breed"
LOL!!!!
It is hilariously pathetic when you really think about.
Just imagine if you went back in time to when the RRoD plagued 360 was rushed out the door by Microsoft and told everyone that in 5 years the Xbox 360 would:
Be dead in Japan just like the first Xbox
Be dead in Europe just like the first Xbox
Graphically humiliated by the PS3
and the 360's only hope for 2010 and 2011 was another damn Halo game and old PS2 era Sony Eye...
I wouldn't be surprised if we see the usual Xbox sales pattern:
* The standard die hard Xbox fans rushing out to buy this ill fated add-on
* Lots of press releases from Microsoft PR
* A rapid dieoff in sales
The laughably barren Microsoft exclusive line up for 2010/11 does leave plenty of cash for the diehards to blow on junk like this.
Outside of the diehard Xbox fans there isn't going to be any inte...
Crisis?
LOL!
The PS3 DESTROYS Crisis in every single area except the silly giant high rez textures.
Everything else, Animation, Lighting, Materials, Physics, Destructability, Effects. Killzone obliterates Crisis.
Crytek is a good marketing company. They put out lots of silly high rez marketing shots to stir up hype with hardcore PC fanbase looking to justify their 3000 computers. Too bad the actual in game looks little more t...
LOL!
Trying to call a game a ripoff of a game, Gears of War, that was nothing more than a shameless ripoff of Kill.switch...
LOL!
Gears of War??? You mean that crappy ripoff of Kill.Switch?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wik...
Yes, Quantum Theory is very similar to Kill.Switch. Thank god it isn't using that hideously outdated Unreal Engine.
Wow. Kojima not only has absolutely nothing to do with Rising he doesn't seem to even have the slightest interest in the game.
No one cares about you.
Yep.
It really is hilarious to think that all that effort is nothing more than self ownage. Instead of complaining to Microsoft to put the effort into trying to match Sony's online network standards, they sit around in forums frantically trying to hype stupid bullet point features almost no one cares about hoping it will convince gamers that their poor quality online service is 'teh best'.
Just think if Xbox fans has put all that effort into getti...
It is amazing that Sony's online service looks like the premium, high end service - but it's free for everyone.
And Microsoft's online service looks like the cheapo free so you can't complain one.
Edit:
"xbox has dedicated the same amount of dedicated servers"
PS3
Resistance 1&2 - lagfree 40&64 player dedicated servers
Killzone 2 - lagfree 32 player dedicated servers
W...
You aren't ever going to get an honest comparison. The gaming media has pretty much decided that they are going to pretend Microsoft's online service isn't a joke because it is the only thing they can put as a checkmark in the Xbox column compared to Sony.
Sony completely dominates Microsoft in graphics, exclusives, support across all three console regions(Japan, US, Europe), reliability, media, openness and upgrade-ability, and on and on. There is a sense that yo...
@Leoakathepaw
Time to get a life. Your console got destroyed by its competition. Sitting around cutting pasting ancient fanboy drivel isn't going to save the Xbox 360 and make it magically start putting out PS3 level graphics.
Even the sad Dreamcast losers weren't this bad. They only clung to their fanboy delusions for a year or two after the PS2 destroyed the Dreamcast in graphics.
It's been four years that the PS3 has been humil...
One is a crappy 'action spinoff' that Kojima has nothing to do with that is being worked on by some other team that has no involvement with the real Metal Gear games. The game is so bad Kojima disowned it at last year's E3 the day after it was announced.
One is one of the masterpieces of this generation.
Different doesn't begin to describe them.
Yea, let's call it 'even'.
Sony, PS3, and PSN:
* Free online play for every single PS3 owner
* Standard dedicated servers for all major online game for lagfree LAN like online play
* Massive player counts thanks to dedicated servers. 40, 64, and even 256 player online games
* Developer friendly for free content and MODs
* The massively successful 15+ million Home online world
"Oh and Kinect is going to be awful. Mark my words."
The fact that Microsoft has had to fake their two E3 showings of Kinetic is more than enough to confirm the horrible reports of lag and other problems people who have actually tried Microsoft's Eye Toy clone have complained about.
