Ps3 also offers choice though. Its not as if Resistance is the only game it has, the only good game perhaps, but not the only game.

As far as not talking about BC, I only listed two games that are bc and who are you to make specific rules for the games I can list that im playing just because the 360 has BC problems.
Just a stab at you for being an ass.

As far as im concerned, the only game ive enjoyed playing on the 360 thus far is Gears of War, but who doesnt enjoy running a chainsaw through their enemies? Alan Wake is looking damn good as well. Perhaps 2007 will surprise me, but im not purchasing the 360 untill they get to 3.0
The one with the Hd-Drive built in. wink.gif

Bio Shock: I was told it has, but its a timed exclusive on the 360.


he was asked what games (other then BC games) was there to play on the ps3.  In no way was i being an ass, i only tried to keep us all on the same page, so watch your words.  the 360's "BC problems" did not effect me at all at launch or even now, any xbox game i care about is BC and besides, if your relying on BC titles with your new system then that is proof alone to the lack of original content.  so what was the point of going out of your way of bashing the competition when im the one trying to keep it a fair playing field?  the fact still stands ALL 3 systems would have a better catalog of games to play at launch if BC is included.  

unless they get HD-DVD drive speeds fast enough to read 360 games as fast as a 12X DVD drive, dont expect an internal drive.  what difference does it make anyways?  your bluray all the way, the lack of an internal HD-DVD drive in the 360 is just one of your many excuses not to get the system at all.  

back to the topic now please....

glad you guys are enjoying your systems.  2007 will be a great gaming year for sure.

I wont waste any typing at this wannabe phedias character other than BioShock has NOT been announced for PS3. Will it go to PS3? Probably. But as of now, it has not been called a timed excusive. As far as the public is  concerned, its headed to 360 and PC only.

The average IQ has dropped even more around here lately, I did not think that was possible. Thanks a lot IPB Image

I hope you werent directing this insult at me, But anyways bioshock hasnt been anounced for ps3 yet the 360 version will hit way b4.

with so much good games on the 360, the BC problems is not really significant. Honestly, when games like crackdown, lost planet, GOW and many others are out for the system then why go back and play those dated games? uhh.gif

On the Ps3 though its more important cause other than resistance, there is ummm......ummm...full auto!

honestly, there is not alot to be happy about right now and if you are  then your just easily pleased.

Deadpool66, he was talking about skarekr0, hence the scarecrow picture.

I have a firmware hacked 360 sitting here with TONS of games to choose from to play. I have a Wii that has grown old on me. And then there is this 60gb PS3. I can honestly say that I spend much more time with the PS3 than the other 2 consoles.

I watch downloaded movies from time to time on my 360 and may load a game up every other week. But for some reason I still find myself playing Blu-ray movies or games on my PS3 every day. I have played thru Resistance 3 times and online all the time. Call of Duty 3 is more fun to play on the PS3 over the 360. Hell I even have a fondness for Dark kingdom even though it got bad reviews. I use my PS3's web browser to download and watch/listen to my favorite podcasts and so on.

I too was skeptical of the PS3 and took my turns bashing something I did not try for myself first hand. I can see how much potential the system has and I am excited to watch as it matures and morphs into yet another kick ass console.

I just don't understand how people can grow to hate an in adamant object. Did the PS3 call you little nerdy names or something? Does it somehow make your weenie seem small and useless?

But then again for the first 6 months of the 360 all I got done hearing is PS3 fanboys bash my 360 so what comes around goes around I guess.

I actually have a launch PS3 and I just have had a better experience with my 360. Your entitled to your opinion and so am I. I however don't understand why you would choose two games over TONS of games to play.

I to am also excited about the PS3 someday becoming a kick ass console, and I continue to wait and wait and wait.....

How so? The 360 version has had better reviews and has more content, graphics, and higher framerate than that of the PS3 version. Whether it's online, smoothness of gameplay, or vivid colors, the 360 definetely beats the PS3 in Call of Duty 3 unless you think twisting the controller to melee people makes up for all of that.

How about having an extreme dislike for the console? And having a severe antagonism for Sony? Sony causes alot of dislike in this forum alone because of all of their false-hype and undelivered promises. What's not to hate (DISLIKE).

I don't know... it's a well made system that is less likely to break than the 360.  Superior backwards compatibility.  Then games like MGS4, Ratchet & Clank, Lair, Mercenaries 2, VF5, Uncharted, etc, etc...  I mean, despite what the fanboys may say, it's really not all bad.

I was talking more about the Sony company itself than the PS3.

But about what you said, all these game franchises that made the PS2 survive will probably all be out in more than a year, and will be spread out way too far apart.

I am looking forward to Mercenaries 2, i heard it was coming to the 360 as well though. It's not a reason enough to buy a PS3, but if it's on the 360 then i'll buy it.

Out of curiosity, why do you prefer CoD3 on the PS3?  My current thinking is that as long as cross platform games remain graphically similar I'd likely go with the 360 version due to achievements and a more robust online service.   This is an honest question because owning both systems means having make the 'right' choice on cross platform games.


Well the achievements mean nothing to me. It is bias towards those that can play games 24/7. As for online I would rather play online on the PS3 for free than pay M$ to play online with the 360. If you notice my gamer tag is silver because I decided to give up online play all together in favor of the free PS3 counterpart. With the silver I can still download demos and movies on the 360.

Also having played CoD3 on both the 360 and PS3 I don't noticed any difference at all on both my HDTV's and I do like the small use of the twisting the controller to melee people.

I do happen to like ALL my consoles and would be hard pressed to give up any one of them if I had to. And yes Sony as a company has made some very big mistakes with there over the top statements just like M$ and other companies have done for ages. While this is inexcusable it does not change the fact that the PS3 is one very impressive machine. And if Sony can hold of the hacks for a couple years developers will look to Sony as the console to choice if they wish to keep the pirates at bay from their losses do to piracy from the 360. However unlikely that will be.

Do you actually read peoples posts?

skarekr0 said bioshock was announced for Ps3. I was the next to respond saying No it has not been. I even went as far as posting a scarecrow picture which it seems only Incognegro picked up on. Just proves my IQ comment wasn't far off *sigh*

back on topic before the badass moderators come in with the boomstick!!

So the melee attack makes use of the motion sensing in the controller?  That's a nice touch.   Anyway, opting for the free service is fair enough.  I think I prefer to the ease of having global friends lists and things the like that the Live service currently offers.  Plus I'm the only one of my friends that currently has a PS3... so if I want to play online with any of them it has to be the 360 or a PC game.  In the end I'll likely have the weigh each game cross platform game independently to decide which system to buy it for.    

What's your PS3 gamer tag?  I'll add you to my friends list.  I don't really have many games to play online right now, but maybe in the future.  My tag is the same as my 360 tag which is the same as my forum user name: Thraxen.





My PS3 gamer tag is Lord-Rahl72.

Hmm...

Resistance: Fall of Man (mainly online)

Full Auto 2

Cash, Guns, Chaos (arcade)

Blast Factor (arcade)

Go! Sudoku (arcade)

Final Fantasy XII (BC PS2)

These will keep me busy until march then ill be playing:

Motorstorm

Lair

Heavenly Sword

GoW 2 (BC PS2)

Eye of Judgement

Which should keep me busy until Bio-Shock and the rest of the 2007 line up hits.

Thats not including the upcoming PSN arcade games or some of the other great ps2 games that will be released this year.


 laugh.gif

With the exception of resistance, your list gave me a good chuckle.

Motostorm, Lair, and heavenly sword all do look very good.  But as of right now, the 360's selection of good games smoke the ps3, and not only matches what the ps3 has to offer in this year, but surpasses it (Halo3, Mass Effect, Fable 2, Bioshock).

Have you played CoD3 MP online on both the ps3 and 360?  Because on the ps3 the online MP is horrible compared to the 360's, in terms of options, downloads, and ease of use.  It's funny you use CoD3 as a comparison, because the ps3's online mp disadvantages is very apparent.


I'd rather pay about $4 a month for good online experience,  then a FREE crippled online experience.

If I may:

I think if most Ps3 owners/future owners where very honest, they would tell everyone else the same thing we all know. They enjoyed the ps2 so much they can't seem to wrap thier heads around the pure disappointment of the Ps3.

There are items that just, well.. "rock". You know it when you first open it up and start using it. You go ooohhhh   ahhhhhhh... nice! You don't need to always defend and analyze why the micro so and so is clocked .000005% faster then this one.

Everyone whom got a Ps3 knows after playing it they are left with the "ok it's cool.. I guess. I wish.. but maybe later... maybe in the future.. maybe some other time... not sure about blue this or that... maybe I should have waited..." feelingz.

I think it's just human nature... It's hard to admit you just got all worked up and spent alot of money on something you trully new better about. To admit it takes balls. No one likes to be taken for a ride. And a ride is what Sony is taking us all on right now.

If we where all smart, we would do the reverse... admit the faults and refuse to buy any companys product that is sold under lies and false marketing. This would cause a faster rise of games and a lower price. Utimately sending a mesage to Sony and others that we are not a bunch of sheep they seem to make us out to be.

Instead, I keep seeing people trying to insist it is something it's obviously not.

But then again I could be wrong..

It's funny how sony built up the hype then now say people expectations are too great. I think the PS3 is a huge disappointment considering Sony is the market leader with the PS2. A year delay should of seen more refinement and many more titles, not just at launch but in the months leading after. The system is good enough to make great games, it just wasn't this great all powerful gaming console Sony wanted people to beleive. Expectations have now been lowered by 4 months of disappointment and it now seems people are beginning to appreciate their $600 purchase. Kudos.

I recently got my new ps3 a 20gb model That I had to drive 200 miles round trip to get. I just wanted to say that its an excellent system and I was lucky enough that it had talladega nights even though it sucks. The store has had the system since december Im guessing since it was out in the middle of no were. Graphics are great especially resistance and motorstorm wich I imported. As the owner of all three next gen platforms I would like to tell the fanboys to stfu. The bc works flawlessly on my tv no jaggies Ive tested mgs3 and unjammer lammy both looked as I rememberd them. I was relieved to find out my tv supports 720p even though its 1080i native. Just wanted to give everyone an unbiased opion from a hardcore gamer.
Also I traded in my ps2 and my games I didnt keep like guitar hero and the system only came to 330 wich is a great price for a blue ray player I just wish they would put some sweet horror movies out now like hellraiser.


Amen brother.
I am very impressed with my ps3 too.
Its afine machine.
