PS3 Supporters claim that they had this MONSTER 2009.
I think it was like being "Valedictorian at Night S...
Let me preface this month's releases with the excuses that the PS3 Supporters will be using once M.A.G. flops HARD later in the month. Remember, each one of them have been listing the title as a MAJOR PS3 exclusive for 2010, and have tried to use the title as "ammo" against the XBOX360 Fans on this website. This is what it will look like:
"It's a new IP. You can't expect it to come out of the gates blazing."
"It may not rate as high as the other ...
But here are the facts:
Incoming (Confirmed):
Fable III
Crackdown 2
Alan Wake
Mass Effect 2
Splinter Cell Conviction
Project Natal
Possibles:
New Mistwalker Game (Rumor)
Half Life Episode 3? (Rumor)
Gears of War 3? (Rumor)
And finally...
Halo Reach (MONSTER CONFIRMATION)
Sony is in trouble. I've been saying it since I joined this site.
And all I've heard fro...
Halo is THE BIGGEST AND BEST FRANCHISE OF THIS GENERATION. PERIOD.
Show me a series that is higher rated AND sells as many copies. It doesn't exist.
That's why when PS3 Supporters try to downplay Halo, I laugh out loud.
It's THE franchise.
It's a juggernaut.
It's a community.
It's darn near a religion.
But that's not the point of this article.
I'm still waiting for the PS3 Fans in this thread to criticize Sony'...
Yes. It's a factual article. Everything that he says in it is the real deal. Sony dropped the ball with PS3 and it takes an intelligent (or humble) person to see it and realize it. PS3 Supporters would rather hide behind criticism and name-calling. Like 12 year olds.
Yes. The controller is dated and not ergonomically sound.
Yes. The multiplats pale in comparison to XBOX360's versions.
Yes. Sony copied and then screwed up the inclusion of Trophies.
And final...
"First Person Shooters using Natal" are set to revolutionize the Gaming Industry. If you honestly don't think that EVERY young boy in the world won't want to experience it, you're out of your minds. It's the second coming of "Minority Report", and it'll be the cool tech toy when it hits the stores.
It'll be a HUGE leap in gaming. Monstrous.
I've been telling you for months that 2010 will be the death of Sony and the PS3. Microsoft has been wai...
The initial thinking was:
"We'll save our consumers tons of money by giving them a FREE online service that may not be as good as XBOX Live, but in the short term... Good enough. We'll also incorporate BluRay, WiFi, and Home into the PS3. And as a result, our consumers will pass those savings on to us by buying games, peripherals, and downloadable content."
Uh... No.
PS3 Fans are greedy, myopic, and selfish.
They want their cake and eat it...
Look at the PS3 Fans. HILARIOUS.
It IS about sales. For your favorite developer to survive. Stop being a Fanboy and pay attention. I know it's tough, but you can try.
"The Last Guardian" might be a GREAT title with incredible visuals, awesome storyline, and amazing replayability. But it's a niche title that is being released with a much smaller install base that doesn't buy titles.
It's that simple.
Uncharted 2 was the best...
You honestly think that Microsoft is worried about Sony chopping into the lead? There will be ebbs and flows in the Console Race. Microsoft knows this. And by the way... So does Sony.
It was planned. And expected. And Microsoft was just waiting for it.
Sony is chasing. They're desperate. It was the fastest slimming down of a console EVER and Microsoft still hasn't played that card. Sony HAD to do something. And they had to do it in 2009. Why? Because 2010 will be...
Look at the posts above me. Do you all remember when WE used to react that way to a videogame console? Remember those feelings of elation?
This kid is another XBOX360 Fan that will be lined up outside of a major retailer for the midnight launch of Halo: Reach next fall. He'll also be jumping around playing Ricochet on Project Natal. Trust me. He will.
But judging from your responses, it's obvious that the Playstation Fanbase is old, worn, decrepit, pompous, and f...
"Congratulations Naughty Dog! You deserve Game of the Year!"
"Sony Playstation 3 RULES! Best console EVAAAAAAAR!!!!!"
...and in the same breath they say...
"Who cares about sales? It doesn't affect me one way or another."
"As long as I get to play games, the sales don't matter."
Huh?
That's what people say that don't have an answer to their problem. Or don't want to admit what is ...
I guess no one really DOES care.
Especially on IGN.
THE NUMBER ONE GAMING WEBSITE IN THE WORLD.
Looks like the multiplatform games dominated 2009.
You know... 90% of game purchases?
Demon Souls? Are you there? Nope. Soulless.
inFAMOUS? Come out, come out wherever you are! In? I'd say OUT.
Ratchet & Clank? I guess they couldn't "catch it... it stank." :-)
Too bad.
I thought that it was "Th...
"Again, not a bad game. Just disappointing."
"In some areas, it succeeded. It certainly looks, and sounds, expensive. It should be praised a lot more than it is for successfully implementing a working cover system in a first-person game. And Brian Cox can make anything bearable. But only to a point; the rest of the game is equal parts forgettable and offensive, poor characters propelling you through a dreary wasteland of a game, populated solely by clichés a...
So what. A site or two gave it a nod. It's still forgettable, generic, overhyped, and it undersold.
That is why only the PS3-biased sites are reporting it. NO ONE CARES.
PS3 Fans are trying to hold on to 2009 like their mediocre exclusives matter.
No one is playing Killzone 2 right now except for the developer and their families.
It didn't even chart in November. The biggest selling month of the year.
It was a bust. Deal with it. Sony needs a...
"Heavy Rain" is a title that PS3 Fans should be proud of.
Different, forward thinking, and most importantly... Fearless.
It's a niche title and won't go platinum. Unfortunately.
But I'm hoping that it starts a new wave of gaming.
PS3 FANS HAD BETTER BUY THIS TITLE.
Playstation Fans are THE WORST.
Do you honestly think that developers want to sell LESS copies?
Do you honestly think that developers want to damage their intellectual property?
Do you honestly think that developers don't want to create MORE revenue for themselves?
You're all idiots. And blind, myopic Non-Gamers.
THEY CAN'T AFFORD IT. ARE YOU LISTENING?
Sony placed complicated Cell Architecture inside the PS3 and then expected the devel...
Here come the Sony Fanbase:
"The Developer SUCKS!"
"The Developer is LAZY!"
"This isn't Sony's fault!"
And they'll NEVER criticize Sony for placing such a time-consuming and complicated infrastructure inside the Playstation 3. Hypocrites.
Listen. Developers don't have the revenue to spend an inordinate amount of time trying to decipher how to get the best out of the Cell Architecture. It drains company funds and ...
According to the PS3 Supporters on N4G, a AAA Game is defined as a game that scores a 90+ score on Metacritic.
God of War III might achieve that feat.
Heavy Rain has a great chance.
BUT THERE IS NO WAY IN H-E-(double hockey sticks) THAT M.A.G. will.
PS3 Fans continue to hype this game for a few reasons:
It's exclusive to the PS3.
It plays 256 men at once. (All of the gamers on PSN.) :-)
They need a shooter for 2010.
And they blind...
However, I would LOVE to see the title do well. It's the only title that PS3 has in 2010 that I'm envious of.
It's a HUGE risk to put out this title with such small userbase on the PS3. And it's also very risky to entrust a franchise with Playstation 3, the console that has shown time and time again that exclusives don't move units. They fall short regularly. And a niche title on a console with an esoteric audience is a disaster waiting to happen.
And as great as...
