Sony's 1-2 punch! Possibly 1-2-3 Punch!!

So do you guys think that with the possitve release of warhawk, and with Killzone 2's likely succes, this will become sony's 1-2 punch, to counter M$'s Halo and GeOW twosome.But if we add the heavily underated RfoM, sony could have3 great game franchises to look forward to everytime a sequal is released.

no it is not a one-two punch at all Warhawk is only multiplayer and wasnt an anticipated title.coolguy681

Yeah but the sequal might have a single player storyline.Sure it wasnt anticipated, but now I'm reallyanticipating the sequal!

Not really considering microsoft has halo3,gears of war,bioshock,mass effect,forza 2.

And really i doubt warhawk will match up against halo 3 in terms of commerical and critical success. and rfom was not underrated it got goodscores imo gs score was spot on i loved the single player but really it doesnt compare with bioshock or gears of war.

Idont think any of the games are going to do damage tomicrosoft, 360 has some great titles now.

I think title's like killzone 2,mgs4,heavenly sword,gt5 and uncharted will do great things for ps3, people will finally realsie ps3 has great games and sony can start competeing against 360.

I love my ps3 i love my 360 but i dont think the games coming this year can counter 360's games, but i dont think 360's 08 games can compete with ps3's 08 games so far of what weve seen.

Im thinking 08 will be the yearwhen sony start gaining some ground but i also think 360 will keep moving along nicely and wont be affected by the rise of quality games on ps3, those games will only affect ps3.

I own both systems, and enjoy both. That being said, I am actually interested in more PS3 than X360 exclusives through the end of this year. Mutliplats, I'll just get on whichever version gets the best score. Then when you factor in the strength of 2008 for Sony, and the PS3 future looks great!wenzke

Took the word out of my mouth. Only getting-got Halo 3 and Bioshock for my 360. But my PS3 libaray wil be huge this holiday.

Well this topic kinda belongs in system wars, but as for punches, the xbox has lots of punches in bioshock, gears of war, mass effect, halo 3 (all shooters....). The PS3 has no must-have games till 08 with the release of MGS4, GT5, Killzone 2, FF XIII, etc. This holiday season will see a bigger boost in xbox sales than PS3 sales, sadly.osirisomeomi

no must have games?!?! warhawk, heavenly sword, lair, folklore, and thats not even into 08, when we have MGS4, littlebigplanet, GT5, killzone2, etc, etc. then we have the Agency and Free Realms, which are looking to be free downloads with microtransactions.

in comparison, the 360 has what? bioshock and halo3 coming out this year, both of which are or will be available for the pc. whoop de doo. and lastly mass effect. another fps. yahoo.

if i took the same game formula and repackaged it with different textures, i would have 95% of all 360 games on the market.

no it is not a one-two punch at all Warhawk is only multiplayer and wasnt an anticipated title.coolguy681

A Nd before any fanboys jump on my ass yes i know some of those arent AAA and some others are multiplat, but notice i said SOLID not AMAZING. Though for most ps3 owners i do think about half of those will be considered amazing.

Bioshock just kicked the crap out of the PS3. And I'm not a troll, I own a PS3 as well. I'm just saying that at the moment nothing on the PS3 compares to it.NavigatorsGhost

I still think bioshock is overrated.. and I'm not being a fanboy.

To everyone who think Bioshock is a good title; it isnt. It's an average FPS with slightly fancy graphics.

Killzone 2 now........

Mass Effect is not a first person shooter, it's an RPG and it's not even in frist person it's in third person.

"if i took the same game formula and repackaged it with different textures, i would have 95% of all 360 games on the market."

If thats so true then the same can be said for ps3 game's, why can't people just admitt 360 has some great games infact amazing game's.

Even if i only owned one console i'd still give credit to the other if it deserved it, and 360 deserves credit for the games it has.

Ive posted allot of positive comments about ps3, ive posted allot of negative comments about ps3 and also 360.

I give credit where credit is due but im not going to blindly not notice the negative things, i think if allot more people where honest on the forums we would have much better discussions.

The fact that you're comparing warhawk to GeOW or Halo 3 is laughable.

Why do you think bioshock is over-rated? an explanation would go along way to me believing your not being a fangirl.

But really i dont know how anybody can say bioshock is over-rated it's probably one of the best reviewed game's ever, it got like 10+ 10 ratings and its lowest score was a 9.0.

I can understand somebody not liking bioshock because they dont like fps games but still anybody can see its an amazing game, just like im not a jrpg fan but i know the final fantasy games are great games.

Really shows how much you know.

Im busy playing bioshock im around 10 hours in and it's easily one of the best fps games ive ever played and all the internet gaming sitesagree with me, but i suppose your word is worth more than all the ten's it got.

Bioshock is far from average, it has amazing graphics some of the best next gen graphics to date.

I shouldnt really get involed in this rubbish but for some reason i keep doing it and then along comes the tos, but i feel amazing games should be defended against un-informed fangirlism.

uhm because it got all those highscores... thats basically what makes it overrated.. as in I think people over rated the game.. as in people scored the game too high.

I played the game I think its a great game .. I would buy the game when I get the 360 but Its not 9.8 worhy or 9.6 worthy but then I had the same thing with geow.. I just think hardly any game is worht more than a 9.5 it means its almost perfect.. And hardly any games are almost perfect.

By the end of the year, Sony will have more than a handful of punches. PS3's lineup at the end of year one will far surpass the 360's at the end of year one.bunchofpixels

Yeah. Everybody is forgetting about Fracture and Haze. Those 2 are going to be very big games for the PS3 and good competitors against Bioshock and Gears of War.Nerkle01

BTW... both of them are coming to 360 too!

And, in this year the PS3 don't have any games that can beat Bioshock, GeoW, Halo 3(don't like it, but still is a system seller) and Mass effect, but in the year to come it'll have MGS3, FFXIII and, I believe, a new God of war... Thats are A+ games.

Yeah I agree gamespots score was correct.. thas why I stated those 9.6 scores and I think even a 9.8 as the over rated scores

Even though Sony dosent have any thing to beat all the FPSs that the 360 has we PS3 owners still have VARIETY. Like we had with the PS2, we never had one game that everyone just had to get cause there were other games comming out that week that interested us. For ex only 40% of PS2 owners bought GTA Vice city while nearly 70% of Xbox owners bought Halo 2. THe THing is that Xbox evan this holiday season with Bioshock and Hola and MAss Effect they still cant deleivere on variety. RC,HS,Warhwak,UT3,Haze,Drakes all are big tittles for the PS3 and dont fit under the same genre.

I think sony has a great line-up at the end of this year.

Warhawk has from what I have heard gained alot of support and alot of the people sitting on the fence waiting for a great game to be released are no longer sitting on the fence and are going to buy one.

UT3 will really help with the halo thing. And like I said before alot of people have been waiting for Ps3 games to pick up and now they are.

I think the release of Home will help too.........

08 looks great for the PS3....

They just need a good advertising campain now!!!!!!!

Warhawk's popularity is due to the lack of games for the PS3. There is simply no alternative, same thing happened when rainbow 6 came out. A bunch of people bought it anticipating the next good online multiplayer shooter for the PS3. And the game flat out sucks. Warhawk is a lot better though, its definitely not crap like Vegas. But a lot of its popularity is because a lot of players have left Resistance. Resistance is close to dead now. It would still be alive and going strong if IG didn't completely screw the game over with their garbage updates. The veteran players are all gone, its nothing but noobs now.

Home is going to be nothing more than a bunch of gamers sitting in a lobby somewhere complaining to each other how there are no games to play on the PS3.

We don't have anything to play but we can decorate our virtual apartment. You want a new couch? 5 dolla.

The PS3 is still in desperate need of games.

No way Warhawk and Killzone 2combined sell as many copies as either Halo 3 or Gears. Well, that may be too bold. Killzone 2 may sell well. I don't think it will sell as well as either 360 game.
