Unlike the Wii and the Xbox 360, the Playstation 3 is poised to grow at a rapid rate and finally become a major player in this generation

-Renegade

Its not as if the Wii can grow any further its already selling at max capacity.

2008 is the year of the PS3 eh?

  • Was January the month of the PS3?
  • Was February the month of the PS3?
  • Was March the month of the PS3?

What month in 2008 does this PS3 dominance start in?

Well, I didn't buy my PS3 for it's ability to play movies but I do agree there's more incentive to pick hardware that has more bang for your buck.

You mentioned PS3's line up of games this year and yet, you only mentioned MGS4. As an owner of both the 360 and PS3, I'll honestly admit I actually have a few more exclusives to look forward to on my 360. (ie: Fable 2, Bioshock 2, Mass Effect 2, Gears of War 2)

I think 2009 will be Sony's year to shine but I think 2008 will be the year to get the ball rolling.

what with 1 good game that IS going to be delayied for 2009? The next big title for the 360 is NG and i can bet you that MGS4 will overshadow it. With MGS4 bundled with PS3's .... it will sell like crazy.Not to mention the DS3.

check out the sales of previous MGS series and compare that to the userbase at the time

now, check the userbase of the ps3, now add about 1 million to that. how many copies do you think it will sell?

now, try to remember if there was ever ANY console that was sold at $499 that "sold like crazy"

Then, to be honest, no PS2 game ever sold well if you think about it that way. Highest selling was 15 million.. :| 120 Million Userbase?

the userbase at the time.

most games sell the most that they will sell in the first few months. so looking at the current userbase doesnt really make sense. you have to look at the userbase at the time

MGS4 is the most anticipated PS3 game there is. Even if your not a MGS fan, you will probably still buy it. Rumble is back, which many ppl wanted. You now get a game in the 80GB Bundle that has AAA all over it.

The Wii is in a league of its own. The battle is 360 vs PS3.

sorry, but no $499 console bundle is gonna sell like crazy. it will bump up the sales, but its not gonna put the ps3 on top

regarding bolded statement: i dont know about that one. FF is pretty up there

PS3 is still lacking in jrpgs. FFXIII and White Knight dont even have confirmed release dates. And the action/rpg FF Versus XIII is an even longer ways off from release. Im thinking devs are waiting for FFXIII to finally be released and the hype to die down before they announce their own jrpg titles. Perhaps they dont want to compete with FF in sales around the same time period.

I do not see anything MILES close to upcoming PS3 games, VAST, next gen lit, and uber detailed free roaming worlds, sorry, 360 will need decades to reach what PS3 game will look like in 2008, so no, 2008 is not 360 year, it is PS3 year

for everyone saying " didn't they say this last year" think about . all of the games got pushed back into 08, there were little games to play and it had a a high price. and it still outsold the 360.

now onto the topic, your blind if you think this won't be the ps3 year. more games are out sales are up and sony proved that blu-ray was worth taking the risk. all they need is another price drop and they got this year in the bag.

MS has some tricks up their sleeves, guaranteed.

Sony may beat them in sales(by very little) but it will be close, and i tink the games will be better for the 360.

by tricks i hope you mean that ms will finallly fix the rrod.

yeah thats because it was going to be a good year since we THOUGHT gta4, mgs4, killzone2 were coming out..

I pity the fools who thought that MGS4 and Killzone 2 were coming out in 2007, seriously, thinking that was madness.

Madness?! THIS IS SPARTA!!!!!!!! *sorry it slipped* BTW a cross between Mr. T and King Leonidas would be the the ultimate console "NUFF said"

Fable 2 will be a better game to have in 2008, than ANY PS3 game by miles, it is a vast world to explore, not some gimmick stealth and shooter or racer titles

Same goes for Too Human, Ninja Gaiden 2, Alan Wake etc to a lesser extend

Let me know when those games actually have a release date. Wasn't Too Human suppose to come out this Spring? :?

No exagerating or overhyping there.lol.Ps3 fanboys are dying for a great game and it comes across big time the post you see in system wars,Its sad really,they put so much hope into games that are half a year+ away even sequals to games that have flopped like resistance and killzone.I think the ps3 fanboys are in for another disappointing year.They just have to WAIT AND SEE when it happens.

Too Human is Q2, more specifically May 3 or 4th.

Back to the topic, I actually think it's the year of the PC, but everyone is entitled to an opinion.

The only two good things the PS3 has going for it in 2008 is: The only console able to play Blu-Ray movies. (Microsoft can't compete on the same scale with digital distribution. ) And Metal Gear IV. But even that may be not enough for the PS3 come the 2008 holidays since Gears of War 2 will be out in November.

IMO Sony has to stop this policy of not buying or bribing for exclusives, like Microsoft. Sony says they earn exclusives but it's not working for them this generation. I think Sony should take a good long look at what it's Rivals are doing right and implement those ideas in to it's strategy.

And this people is why cows shouldn't complain about people claiming their system has no games. Because they say it themselves how the PS3 is outselling the PS3 without games imagine what will happen when it has games.

The whole "Just Wait" and "PS3 has no games" go hand in hand and were both created by cows. Now when other people use them there is crying foul.

You can't complain about something that you yourself created.

What do you mean just wait? We are already beginning to see sonys slow rise above the 360, in terms of sales atleast as of now. The waiting is over.

Why do people just bring up MGS4 as the only heavy hitter that PS3 has in 08??? People forget about the series that has sold 14 million units since it debuted. And it will ONLY be on PS3

mostly the accentuate the blu-ray because it something there system has that the others dont. this is actually unrelated to how much of a benefit it is because clearly the ammount that it cost PS3 in terms of exclusivity loss, price, diverted resources leaving hardware bottleneck( 256 mb video card) outweighs any benefit.

Funny PS3 guys are recently saying that Blu-Ray is going to save PS3 and that's lame to me because I think Blu Ray cost them the lead in the first place.

We are almost done with 2008's 3rd month and the best release for the PS3 is an annual baseball game :|

Umm by having more content and thats it the graphics arent boosted and the game dosent run any faster.

MGS4 dosent even look better then COd4 or bioshock and those are multiplat.

Cow's have been tricked by thinking blu-ray means better games when it actually means longer dev time and maybe more content.

We haven't seen the final version of MGS4, so the graphics are unknown at this point. Blu-ray gives developers a lot more space for development. A huge plus for the PS3.

[QUOTE="-Renegade"]

[QUOTE="club-sandwich"]Agreed, just like 2007. :DBlackbond

It's a shame 360 got beat by a system with "no games." :D

And this people is why cows shouldn't complain about people claiming their system has no games. Because they say it themselves how the PS3 is outselling the PS3 without games imagine what will happen when it has games.

The whole "Just Wait" and "PS3 has no games" go hand in hand and were both created by cows. Now when other people use them there is crying foul.

You can't complain about something that you yourself created.

LOL Fix that please.

Again cow's thinking blu-ray will save the ps3 :roll:

Not one game on it exclusive or multiplat has benefited from it so why do you guys keep hyping it ?

dream431ca

MGS4 and GT5 prologue have benefited from Blu-ray.



GT5: P needs over 5Gb's of installing. Yep really benefitted. Too bad the 20 and 40Gb owners are getting screwed because of it.

GT5 will probably need bloody 10Gb's!

Umm by having more content and thats it the graphics arent boosted and the game dosent run any faster.

MGS4 dosent even look better then COd4 or bioshock and those are multiplat.

Cow's have been tricked by thinking blu-ray means better games when it actually means longer dev time and maybe more content.

We haven't seen the final version of MGS4, so the graphics are unknown at this point. Blu-ray gives developers a lot more space for development. A huge plus for the PS3.

I higly doubt the final version of MGS4 is going to set a new bar for console graphics when it's released. And if blu-ray gives dev's alot more space then why are multiplats like oblivion and Burnout virtually the same on both consoles ? Shouldnt the ps3 version have more content because its disk is larger :?

um it will be both nintendos and sonys year ,,

we know nintendo has its tricks

we know sony will have mgs 4 its safe to say wii will remain top until console has ended,, nintendo still has hitters coming aside from whats out

mariokart wii a few months a way

nintendo has announced a suprise game to be unvield at e3 so that may play a key part in my theory

sony was able to stay for 2 whole gens

i think its nintendos time lets be honest now, since n64 nintendo was not so good at getting technology needed for 3rd party to be satisfied but gc even though sold less then n64 improved 3rd party support wii is gonna take that into a whole new level ,,

its not to be compared to ps3 or 360 its been said time and time again so dont compare wii to ps3,, its line up is always gonna be supierer to the other 2 because nintendos strong success games ,,, even marioparty sells out well well enough that the 7th game in the series had a box or case that said best selling game at launch ,,

so ya even though gc sold not as good as ps2 its first party software always sold,, no matter what ,, same goes for wii

im no stranger to good games , ive played many to know that graphics never made a game this is one of the reasons ps1 and ps2 were successful it has a killer line up that did good,, even that doesnt compare to nintendos lineup

nintendo played sonys cards this generation by not going to far in graphics instead it offers games ,, games that none other can offer, silly but true,,

microsoft made its first mistake when they rushed 360 out the door,,

that is gonna put sony in position to at least get good spot 2nd is a good spot for a company like nintendo or sony but microsoft whos never been on top or doesnt have a side handheld like nintendo or sony to help out that spot wont help microsoft ,, and thats a fact,

Shouldnt the ps3 version have more content because its disk is larger :?

ya and tell me this why does a past generation or 2 past gens games have more features then one on a bigger disk or storage medium,,

examples

perfect dark format cartridge

perfect dark zero -360 dvd disc

ya tell me whats so specal about blu-ray that wont be the reason for ps3 even passing the 360 i agree it will pass the 360 but what i dont agree is the disc format being the factor of it,,

n64 carts snes carts and nes carts are smaller even ps1 discs are smaller theres no denying fact in that but that doesnt mean a game like pd 64 had less then one on todays platforms,

goldeneye alone would prove that a n64 cart can hold enough levels and stuff ,, and it did, in fact theres only a few to actually have equal or more then it , and i wont give n64 examples as these are on cartridge as well

im gonna give examples of games that have gotten or has the same or more stuff in numbers

timesplittters series of games-ps2 xbox gamecube im talking fps games not other games racing games have always had alot to do in them ts is well known for being the first console fps to include a map maker something greatly appreaciated as if you got a lot of memory cards or an xbox ,, youll never have an excuse for not playing it make your own levels etc,

so im gonna ask why haven we seen an fps that has these key features

at least 20 big levels missions or what ever you like to call em

add to that 23 cheats to unlock pd and ts are known follow ups

loads of guns and characters

4 player splitscreen and some ai to boot

and exceptionally good graphics ,, i mean reasonablly good graphics

on a blu ray disc or 360 dvd or wii disc ,,, but weve seen em on n64 carts and gc /xbox ps2 dvds discs ,,

so saying blu-ray would be needed for this type of expeirence is already proved to be a lie so why use it as a factor in a console wars ,,

its not that big of a deal whether it used dvds or optical disc or compact disc as long as the game is fun i dont care and nor should you , what developer is gonna use blu-ray to its extent ,, i dont see one unless the games exclusive to ps3 thats a different story but a multiplatform game which alot of them are aint gonna be different because of a blu-ray disc

Yes, this will be the year of the PS3. The victory of blu-ray, more exclusive games and the launch of Home will make it the best console of 2008.

360 covers all genres, like JRPG's(Lost Odyssey,Cry On, Infinite Undiscovery,Tales of Vesperia), action(NG2), platformers(Banjo3), strategy(Halo Wars), stealth (Splinter Cell 5), survival(Left4Dead, Dead Island), WRPG (Fable 2, Mass Effect 2, Precursors, Elveon, Too Human, Sacred 2), adventures (Alan Wake, Theseis), shooters (Gears 2, Project Offset, Warhound, Bioshock 2)

PS3 covers few genres, so it is not PS3 year
