First off, it's a video game system!

Second, I could careless if this game is multi-plat. I will be picking it up for the 360 anyway. So what do I care!

And finally it will not be released on all 3 at the same time!

to go with that WHINE!

did everything bad for the ps3 in 2007 get posted?

@intellegentAJ

yes, they are unconfirmed.

these last few days have made me realize......

The MEDIA has TURNED on 360.

regardless if any of this is true or NOT.

wouldn`t you agree?

Ps. I like you posts aswell.

@skundawhatever.

EDIT: Yeah good point. Up until November all I could see was bad news being posted about the PS3. The tides certainly have changed though.

Media turns toward POWER!!!

While Microsoft is a big company, their gaming division is nowhere CLOSE to Sony's. SOE, Team Ico, Santa Monica, and all the other Sony devs still have an arsenal to unleash.

Team Ico, Santa Monica, Naughty Dog, Insomniac, Suckerpunch (Infamous looks awesome), and NCSoft will bring it!!!

while overall I don't really care...there definitely is a trend that started somewhere around the release of CoD 4, where negative PS3 news needs to be dug from the depths of hell...rather than being everywhere all the time...

there is no arguing that 2007 had a "its cool to hate the PS3" mentality for the most part...games that would marginally underperform their 360 counterpart were immediately written of with a big stamp of "the ps3 sucks" from almost every gaming website...but recently, different development tactics have resulted in more and more titles being deemed as identical, and in some cases slightly better on the PS3...

it definitely has not resulted in "the 360 sucks", its more of a "well finally the PS3 version looks better, but it still doesn't have this this this and this, so the 360 version is better"...which before, would have immediately turned an article into a shotcomings-of-the-PS3 rant...

and this stuff has increased exponentially in the last month...all of a sudden the PS3 outsells the 360 worldwide for the last month of 2007, and is continuing to do so...all of a sudden the gaming media has realized that the PS3 has a vastly superior lineup for 2008 on every single level...all of a sudden the stuff that was once not important (open/free online service, standard USB profiles, non-proprietary accessory compatibility, etc.) is making more headlines...and these little things are all stuff that MS has absolutely no answer to...they are tight lipped on UGC distribution, with no decent looking outcome in sight...they have been removing XBL features for silver members (wait a week now for demos?...how is that moving forward?)...

and the now infamous ongoing public hardware beta is finally reaching critical mass...there is no denying that if the PS3 was what had failure rates of even half that of the 360, that it immediately would have been flopped...

MS is in a position they are used to though...they dabble in market after market, holding on until the competition does what they started better...windows is the only thing MS has that has not been beaten on every single level over and over...XBL is acceptable, despite all its annoyances and nickel-and-diming shortcomings, until something else comes along...offering more for less...which is exactly what is setting up with the PSN...the PSN needs two features implemented to match xbl on a user basis...which is unified in game messaging/invites/joining and music access...yet already has features that xbl doesn't support...such as tons of games with dedicated servers (some of which are third party, Epic/midway has over 30 dedicated to the PS3 for UT3)...a much easier and better way of distributing UGC...

not only that but the PSN has shown what it is likely to become in 2008...XBL has no answer for the services of Home...XBL has only grown in terms of content...PSN has/is growing in feature plus content...

in the end none of this really matters...it is simply humorous to watch fanboys have to put new spins on old sayings just to keep up...as well as see 80% of the gaming media try to get the egg off their face...

2008 will have some great times for both systems...its just nice to see that more and more people are seeing that the PS3 isn't anywhere near as bad as it was originally declared...and, dare I say it, it might be the best console to own starting this year...

ha thanks man...

while I agree that not everyone will take a post like as a friendly argument...it is worth noting that I am not looking for the tables to be turned on the 360...

nearly every single post I make is pro-Sony, but I only post in response to someone else ranting ignorantly about "sony'droids" and the PS3 in general...the only thing I find funny is towards those who continuously bashed the PS3 all last year, hailing victory in a battle that had never even really begun...that wasn't just fanboys on this stie, but a very large portion of the general media...

I never cared for the conspiracy issues surrounding 1up and other sites...its just very obvious at times where there preferences stand...2008 will be, if nothing else, hilarious in watching sites and editors alike try to apologize for a year of kicking sand in the face of owners of the "other" console...

and i've never played a Splinter Cell game, but i wouldn't mind it coming to the ps3 so i can try it out.

it won't replace Metal Gear but it doesn't have to. its just another game that can be played on ps3 and one less reason to own a 360 if it turns out to be a good game.

I enjoyed the first splinter cell...

with that said though it quickly felt like one of those need for speed franchises...where the originals were great, and then you keep getting lame sequel after lame sequel (if you could even call it that, ist more like need for speed '05, '06, '07, etc.)...

I have not played any since the first game that really caught my attention...and as of right now, have absolutely zero interest in conviction...

lastly...weren't these the devs that said "blah blah blah, but teh cell can't do AI"...or something moronic like that...

5.5 - Splinter Cell is dead

Splinter Cell is a dead franchise. It's been basically steadily going downhill ever since the first game, which was very good. Although Double Agent wasn't bad.

Comparing MGS to Splinter Cell is like comparing a B-movie to a highly anticipated blockbuster with huge production values. Nowadays, there's just no quality comparisons between the two franchises.

8.1 - @ Crimson_Wolf

Ubisoft wants Splinter Cell to compete with MGS4. And what better way to compete with it than on its home console. some developers are trying go beyond hardware vs. hardware, and get back to software vs software. Like the old arcade days.
Then:
Streetfighter vs. MK
MK vs KI
Now:
Fisher vs. Snake
Croft vs. Drake
COD4 vs. GRAW2 vs. R6V1&2
and so on.

It's not true. Ubisoft say it can't be done on the PlayStation 3, such as the sophistication of the game. Obviously it would cause the console to explode or just spit the disc out - consequently hitting you either in the groin or between the eyes. So for the safety of all involved, this game will not be released.

And if it is released, it'll be a clash of the titans. Consumers will see Splinter Cell on one side of the shelf. And Metal Gear on the opposite. Which to choose..which indeed..Hmm..

Am I being sarcastic? An I indeed..Hmm

Yeah you can see Meus favors the PS3 over the 360 but everyone on this site has a system that they favor. Anybody who says otherwise isn't realistic. Some people who have a bias of one console make sensible statements about said console, while others simply bash the competing console and deny any good news(First Knight, Genuine, Tanod/Shmee/Mr.PS3, Harriet Tubman, etc.. heres looking at you). It's easy to see who fits on which end of this spectrum by looking at people's comments.
