When it first launched, the game library was weak - just like any other platform. It takes time for consoles to pick up notable titles; this applies for any system. It's been less then a year since it first came out, and the library is just exploding with games - and not just crappy movie games or multipatform games either.

Just recently Warhawk and Lair came out, unexpectedly enough. Soon enough Heavenly Sword, Stranglehold, Uncharted: Drake's Fortune and Dark Sector, Grand Theft Auto4, Devil May Cry 4, Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, Resident Evil 5, Silent Hill 5, Ratchet and Clank Future: Tools of Destruction will come out in the near future. I've never seen so much exclusive first party titles for any of Sony's platforms come out all so soon, not that all of the above titles are but mostly.

It really makes me proud to be a owner of a true next-gen system. I'm not being a one-sided fanboy, but honestly the Microsoft's lack of support for their growing numbers of failing 360's isn't helping their reputation. All the 360 had on the PS3 was a better library and better online, which seems to be changing all too soon if you ask me - with the upcoming titles and Home, what will the 360 have on the PS3?

Also, the Wii is a good console, but there hasn't been a descent title since launch, and only a few titles in the future seem promising. I'm a fan of Nintendo, but they have to do better than build on their old franchises and really move on from simualted sports games.

What are your thoughts?

This should be in System Wars, but I agree with you completely. I'm happy to finally see somebody who isn't biased towards a system.

I wanted the opinions of PS3 owners, cause I'm sure that that forum is filled with Wii360 fanboys that don't care enough to do a little bit of research before throwing words out of their mouths.

Amen to that. Were also getting Haze and UT3 which are both timed exclusives (Haze might be 100% exclusive, not sure). UT3 with extra free maps and mods will be amazing. Honestly UT3>Halo 3 since UT will have so much replayability, better graphics, etc. I hope Halo gets a 8.5-9.0 just to bring the lemmings back to reality.

Unreal Tournament has always been better than Halo. It's just that the lems never tried it and they think that "Halo iZ teh best!!!!!!!1".

Indeed, Haze will be yet another exclusive title as well. UT3 will utilize the Unreal Engine 3, also used in Gears of WAr, so I'm stoked on that. All of this is slowly reminding me of how the PS2 dominated the console market when it was in its prime, which was a good 5 to 6 years.

Pathetic attempt at defending the PS3. Because the majority of the games you listed "will come out in the near future". And half of those will come out next year.

So no, the library is not exploding with games. It's still seriously lacking. The system still doesn't have any notable titles. Well, except for it's only two good exclusives. Warhawk and Resistance.

The system needs more now. Not a year from now.

There will be more exclusives to the PS3 than multiplatform games actually, there's too many to list. Some I've already addressed in my opening post.

Seriously lacking? So what other concolse had a better library in less than a year's time?

Certainly not the Wii or 360. Everyone played the Legend of Zelda: TP and Wii Sports until they passed out, and as for the 360 - Everyone just played Halo 2 until GoW came out.

Remove Lair from the list and you'll be fine. I'm so disappointed in that game so I'm being harsh today.

Wrong and wrong.

Wii hasn't been out for a year, but already has several near triple AAA games. Such as Wario Ware Smooth Moves, Metroid Prime 3, Twilight Princess, and Super Paper Mario.

First year, Xbox360 had Call of Duty 2, Project Gotham Racing 3, Perfect Dark Zero, Burnout Revenge, Oblivion, and Ghost Recon.

PS3 has had a poor year so far, hopefully the next month will clear that up with some upcoming games like Half Life 2 Orange Box, Unreal Tournament 3, and Rachet and Clank.

Nearly every console has had a better library in less then a year's time, then the Ps3. Except for the original Xbox. I'm not saying the Ps3 is a bad system, just saying it's had a bad start.

Say what you will, but things are certainly picking up and the future seems ever so brighter with each day.

Trust me, I really thought about what console to purchase and the choice was all too simple for me in the end.

Maybe if the 360 was a bit more durable, I'd have considered getting one. My brother just got his 5th 360 yesterday, and it never seizes to amaze me how money hungry Microsoft is. They don't even give you a new one, but "fix" your current one. Everytimt they did this, it never worked out and he has to wait 2 weeks for a system that had a good chance of failing again.

Im in partial agreement with Ultra-Alue....

There were only 4 games in your original list that are set to release this year.

Stranglehold, GTA, Devil May Cry, probably RE5 are multiplats so you can get them on either console (I dont count the Wii as a console). These games will all be released eventually but only Stranglehold will release before the PS3 is a year old.

The console as a decent library of games currently. But in all reality your talking about the future because the majority of the games listed are not going to be available anytime soon.

Currently the PS3 has Motorstorm, RFOM, Warhawk and....? I mean when its all said and done its a good start but not a great one and its getting pretty close to a year so your getting a little ahead of yourself by saying the consoles lineup is great in less than a years time. The year is up in October as the console was released in November.

Silly post. Microsoft is money hungry... Sony and Nintendo are not out to make money, oh no they are not. They just want to make people smile, after they spend 600 dollars on their console. And Nintendo has you pay too much money for recycled technology. Don't bring in that money hungry excuse. It's pathetic.

And I doubt your brother just got his 5th 360. I guess you haven't heard of that new warranty Microsoft did that put them back, I forget how much money, to replace any 360 that was sold in the last two years if it was faulty. "Everytime they did this it never worked" don't make me laugh.

The future is getting darker for Sony. They continue to lose more and more money on the Ps3. They are never making a profit because people never buy that many games for the system. If Sony can get their head out of their ass and make the Ps3 not so damn expensive, then maybe they'd get more people to buy it. And once the Ps3 has a larger consumer base, then more developers will make games for the Ps3. Instead of running for the Wii and 360.

Warhawk is the first great exclusive game on the PS3 in my opinion. Most of the games you listed like RE5, Dark Sector, DMC4, etc... are coming to the 360 also. There are some good games coming, but most of them will be on 360 too.

I don't understand your comment on MS's lack of support for failing 360s. They admitted a problem and extended its warranty to 3 years. My 360 died twice and both times I got it repaied in about 10 days. A lack of support would be them not doing anything.

Lastly, why does every thread in the PS3 forum turn in a 360 bashfest? I see very little of the opposite in the 360 forum. You need to quit trying to justify your purchase and just play games. Just get a PS3 and 360 and life will be good.

i'm skeptical about your little rant here if you mentioned that wii hadn't had a decent game since launch (and half of the games that you mentioned for the ps3 are also from old franchises). and plus, the 360 has a couple of good games in it's belt. and a couple more comming in. as far as i'm concerned, ps3 is struggling, however, that means they also have the most potential to be great. now it's a stunning blow that lair flopped, according to ign, it's sad that ps3 is not getting to many breaks. they're a big company and they'll be fine. they have a couple of good titles coming, but i can't say that it would make them significantly better than the other systems.

the 360 is a jokedarbyshireandy

I will give you the cold hard facts right now.

360 has better games then the Ps3.

360 has better online then the Ps3.

360 has better looking games then the Ps3. (surprisingly)

As of right now, the Xbox 360 is completely superior to the Ps3. So what does that make the Ps3 if the 360 is a joke? Oh god it can't be good.

It doesn't even cost the consumer anything to get their 360 repaired, the system itself costs less but offers so much more. If it wasn't for the red rings of death, which Microsoft will fix freely, then the 360 would have no crippling flaws.

First off microsoft has shown their support for 360 owners with extended every consoles manufacturers warranty to 3 yrs. This goes for brand new and old ones that people have now. Secondly what about the here and now for the ps3. Where are the games? Some of those you listed are multiplat. Is that gonna warrant a purchase from someone that could get them on a cheaper console. You guys keep looking at the future which doesn't look bad at all but trying to defend the ps3 for games coming out in the future doesn't help your cause. If you look at the here and now the lack of games on the ps3 isn't helping it at all. The 360 has games coming out in the future as well. So your argument is flawed.

If they actually cared for their customers, maybe they'd do a better job "repairing" the systems? Believe in what you will, but my brother did in fact get his 5th, by trading in his problematic 360 instead od sending it in. Why you ask?

That's because he only got his 360 back a few weeks ago, and it's already tripping on him. I don't even think they actually test their systems upon fixing them. They are money hungry. If the system is screwed, they wouldn't send them back to you if they weren't but instead send you a brand new one to make up for their fault. I have heard of their warranty, too bad it doesn't cover over-heating and disc errors, nope, cause that's what you'd want for your 360.

It's so obvious your a fanboy, so stop bashing Sony already. It costs that much because of the hardware in the system, it takes money to make something and in this case plenty for this powerful system.

Say what you will, but things are certainly picking up and the future seems ever so brighter with each day.

Trust me, I really thought about what console to purchase and the choice was all too simple for me in the end.

Maybe if the 360 was a bit more durable, I'd have considered getting one. My brother just got his 5th 360 yesterday, and it never seizes to amaze me how money hungry Microsoft is. They don't even give you a new one, but "fix" your current one. Everytimt they did this, it never worked out and he has to wait 2 weeks for a system that had a good chance of failing again.

Money hungry? You are very misinformed my friend. Microsoft fixes all consoles for free now and they even pay for shipping. You pay nothing to get it fixed.

I wanted the opinions of PS3 owners, cause I'm sure that that forum is filled with Wii360 fanboys that don't care enough to do a little bit of research before throwing words out of their mouths.jts31689

Sorry :s as an owner of all 3 i just want to stick up for MS when you said they aint doing much about the faulty Xboxs. However they have set aside 100s of millions of £s to sort the problem out.

I agree though when people say there are no games for the PS3 are crazy, there are so many amazing games coming out :D cant wait.

I don't even think they actually test their systems upon fixing them. They are money hungry. If the system is screwed, they wouldn't send them back to you if they weren't but instead send you a brand new one to make up for their fault. I have heard of their warranty, too bad it doesn't cover over-heating and disc errors, nope, cause that's what you'd want for your 360.jts31689

Haha, oh god this is hilarious. Once again you have absolutely no idea what you are talking about.

They do repair the consoles, it's actually a fault with the glue. They use this one type of special glue that holds several parts together, but when it's around too much heat for too long it loses it's strength and the parts become loose. The warranty covers over-heating and disc errors too.

What? Is English your first language? And honestly you dont want to have something fixed because it "will' break again? The roof analogy is pretty bad as well. A house is not a $350 device. Its a house. Come on seriously do you even have a son let alone have a broken 360?

Why do topics like these turn ugly all the time?

I just wanted to point out good things on the PS3, and comes the biased fanboys from the depths of System Wars.

Whatever the case may be, the 360 has way too many problems. Maybe if they thought over their plans, instead of releasing it a whole year earlier than the PS3 and Wii, things could have been different.

Then why does the Ps3 have so many problems? Like for instance, no one buying it.

That's why the topic turned ugly. Comparing it to the other consoles.

[QUOTE="Ultra-Alue"][QUOTE="jts31689"]

When it first launched, the game library was weak - just like any other platform. It takes time for consoles to pick up notable titles; this applies for any system. It's been less then a year since it first came out, and the library is just exploding with games - and not just crappy movie games or multipatform games either.

Just recently Warhawk and Lair came out, unexpectedly enough. Soon enough Heavenly Sword, Stranglehold, Uncharted: Drake's Fortune and Dark Sector, Grand Theft Auto4, Devil May Cry 4, Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, Resident Evil 5, Silent Hill 5, Ratchet and Clank Future: Tools of Destruction will come out in the near future. I've never seen so much exclusive first party titles for any of Sony's platforms come out all so soon, not that all of the above titles are but mostly.

jts31689

Pathetic attempt at defending the PS3. Because the majority of the games you listed "will come out in the near future". And half of those will come out next year.

So no, the library is not exploding with games. It's still seriously lacking. The system still doesn't have any notable titles. Well, except for it's only two good exclusives. Warhawk and Resistance.

The system needs more now. Not a year from now.

Seriously lacking? So what other concolse had a better library in less than a year's time?

Certainly not the Wii or 360. Everyone played the Legend of Zelda: TP and Wii Sports until they passed out, and as for the 360 - Everyone just played Halo 2 until GoW came out.

Well, about this u are wrong. I´ll stay away from personal opinion, the 360 launch got 4 exclusives rated higher than PS3`s highest rated game, and the number has just increased since then.

As a former PS1 and PS2 owner i am really dissapointed by Sony´s poor performance when it comes to games and i´m not sure Sony understand the importance of online, Home is a gimmick and doesn`t do anything for how the games will play, i don`t buy it. I mean, releasing a next gen console without a mic?

The hardware is brilliant, but without games it means nothing.

If I didn't compare, I'd be being ignorant and biased. Ofcourse you compare two of the same items. Like bands or cities, comparing is just as natural as breathing.

When you buy a console, you compare it to competition as well to see what's out there. I'm not loaded enough to just get whatever I see without comparing.

That Ultra-Aluekid talks a lot of trash, and i bet he doesn't even own a ps3. Seriously kid i've seen your posts and all they seem to be are bashings, bashings,andbashings. In fact why do you even bother just go to the 360 thread and blog about how ps3 games blow, because i don't wanna hear your crap.

I can't speak for other countries but here in the United States, many media sources do not give the PS3 fair coverage. I watch G4 on my Comcast Cable for game news and they are very biased. When a new game comes out which is avaialble on both the 360 and the PS3 they will often mention only the 360. My wife asks me why I watch it when I get so upset after some effeminate little twit stands there and says something like the Wii is much better than anything Sony has to offer.

If I could afford it I would own of everything but since I can own only one plus a couple of PC's I'll take the PS3. Ive been watching the new and future game releases and I think in the long run the PS3 has a bright future.

Yeah, that's hilarious.......Seriously, stop trying to justify the money you spent on future releases you haven't even played yet. I doubt you did any objective comparisons between the two systems when the 360 obviously has more to offer RIGHT NOW. The PS3 does appear to have a bright future but until they have those game released I see no reason anyone needs to buy one. Get the 360 now, wait for Sony to earn your money when said games are actually released.

sirk1264

um......yes. they do

Prove it

Can't prove it yet since no consoles broke down yet or at least not enough to find out what Sony is doing for warranty. All I have heard was some people's system was acting up (not broke down) and Sony replaced it IMMEDIATELY. Sounds pretty good to me.
