Sony had a pretty good year. They slowly gain sales and the have 3 great game out. MGS4,LBP, and R2.

But Mirosoft still put out more games this year that average 8.5 though they only have 3 AAAE to the lesser extent for this year, Gears 2 , Braid and Geometry wars 2.(Yes. I can us xbla games do to the fact that they're games)

This is also a sad point due to the 360 only being able to pulled through this year due to xbla. I mean they're selling Too Human that did not live up to it's hype that had several problems and only had 2 people online for $60 and then We get in the same month Castle Crasher for $10 that did everything right what Too Human was trying to do.

The point is that this year was an average year and it had many disappointment. Only, getting 2 good jrps out of the mess of jrpgs Microsoft put on their system. Socom having all of its online problem. Squire- Enix showing how behind in tech with Last remnant. Too human and Haze. This year had many ups and downs, I could go on. And I love Nintendo, but only SSBB for year and then Wii Music.....DON'T GET ME STARTED ON THE WII!!!!!:evil:

This year is a draw. For every step forward that ether the PS3 or the 360 made they were one step back.

I strongly disagree. PS3 took a huge step forward, the same can't be said for Microsoft.

I personally preferred 360 this year. I did most of my multiplat gaming on it, and on top of that all the exclusives I bought and played/playing. And unlike most, I'm a Too Human fan (shock, gasp!).

PS3 had a great Holiday with LBP and R2. I'm not an MGS fan, so MGS4 didn't do squat for me. And I only picked up a few multiplats for PS3. If you only have a PS3, then it was a stellar year.

I think that the reason they had so much room to maneuver this year was because they took many leaps backwards with the release of the PS3 as opposed to their previous version of the console. They had more room to recover so naturally if they games for both systems are equal this year they would take a bigger leap forward.

No sorry. Last years argument was the 360 won with 2 AAAE (rightly so). So it is logical that PS3 won with 1 AAAAE and 2 AAAE. nobody even considered the AAE games the PS3 gained last year.

:roll: Right, huge step forward with a great critically acclaimed game is hand that's not selling. Not anywhere close to the extent that they hope for. "LBP, the Ps3 System seller!"

It's been far from an average year if you ask me. It's been awesome for the PS3, pretty good for the 360 and we've had a lot of great multiplats.

We go by GS scores because if not then we'll never be able to determine a winner and we'll have a bunch of people like the TC claim all systems equal.

Okay? The PS3 didn't have a good year last year, came back, and had a great year this year. My point still stands, what are you trying to get at? You can twist my words, throw in whatever variables you want, PS3 had a great year. Remeber, we're in the next generation, obviously it's a lot different from last.

You're basing your whole argument on the sales of LBP?

Last year the ps3 had less AAE game than the 360. This year it did put out more. Also, though I love MGS,(MGS 3 is the best is the series) It's still a niche game. The over quality for both systems are equal. Last, it was unequal leaning to the 360. This year is a draw.

Someone can still have an opinion. One opinion doesn't void other opinions. Play the System Wars game all you want to, but individuals are still free to their thoughts and opinions. I think we can freely voice our thoughts as long as they're not against the ToS.

Ask you self this question. Does Microsoft care if the games go to pc? They are the ones putting it on pc. I don't understand this 360 vs pc argument. So what if it goes to pc. The question is if you can play it on pc or if you want to. Microsoft still get your money anyway.

So now it's PC + 360 vs PS3? That's some backwards logic you've got there.

And my point was that both consoels had a good year. Both are pretty much equal in terms of games. Gamerankings lists 6 AAA+ for both 360 and PS3 for 2008 and 35 AA games for PS3 and 40 AA games for 360 for 2008. All searches done with 10 or more votes. Both consoles had a great year and both deserve to get acknowledged for the great games they put out this year.

On a side note Wii has 3 AAA+ games and 17 AA games for 2008.

1. Ps2,PSP,Ps3 vs 360, Microsoft studio pc brand, and no thats not what I mean 2.Nice way to take my statement out of context

but really if you think about it sony had like 3 AAE last year

at least now they have 1 AAAAE and 2 AAAE .. but it's still 3 games

MS also had 3 games for the holidays.. but 2 of them could potentially go to pc

do these companies actually release games other than during the holiday season, and more than 3 retail games pls

What happen to this.voxware00

3.You have yet to answer the question. My point was the having 360 games on pc is not a plus or minus for Microsoft.

I find this very funny So your telling me that if the PS3 had zero AAAA and 1 AAA (which was a psn game like supper star dust 2 )

Exactly. If the PS3 had 3 AAAE PSN games in 2007 and Cows tried to pass them off as true games, the other 3 factions would be down on them like a ton of bricks.

An AAAE is an AAAE. xbla game can't suddenly not count just because. I'm not saying LBP or Braid is the better platform or equal.(Though Braid does have better platforming elements.)

That would not stop you from pushing it as it were. If Socom or Siren were AAAE we would here no end about it.

You know what I just noticed floppy if i click on the 360 tab, then reviews and put them in number order I don't see braid, Weird how an Indie game can compete when it's not even on the reviews page for 360

Exactly. If the PS3 had 3 AAAE PSN games in 2007 and Cows tried to pass them off as true games, the other 3 factions would be down on them like a ton of bricks.

TC, they don't count. Stop it.

That would not stop you from pushing it as it were. If Socom or Siren were AAAE we would here no end about it.

I personally preferred 360 this year.

You preffer the 360 any year :lol:

On topic: The PS3 had a great year, it had a better year then the 360 but it was a close race.

PS3's lookin' pretty good to me next year...;)

SOCOM and Siren make things confusing because they're also available at retail as well as the PSN Store. They're also more expensive and bigger than games like Braid and CC. So I'm not sure if they would count either.

I strongly disagree. PS3 took a huge step forward, the same can't be said for Microsoft.0bscurity

I agree that the PS3 took a huge step forward, but you can't judge how well MS did by using GS rankings. Sure, you can brag about GS scores in SW but in the real world GS scores do not determine how well a system is doing.

If I were a cow I would be worried about how the PS3s sales have stalled lately (especially when we are talking about Europe)...and I would be worried about the fact that PS3 game sales never impress.

This was not the year of the PS3. It was not the year of the 360 either, granted. The thing is, the 360 is not in last place, so this year did not need to be a resounding success for MS (and yet they release the new dashboard). Sony needed a miracle, and all it could do was to take one huge step forward (and we are still waiting for Home).

You know what I just noticed floppy if i click on the 360 tab, then reviews and put them in number order I don't see braid, Weird how an Indie game can compete when it's not even on the reviews page for 360

That is weird indeed, Animal-Mother. Perhaps the TC can explain it to us?

[QUOTE="micky4889"][QUOTE="dreman999"] The 360 has 3 AAAE.

Someone didn't read my post.;)

Gears2, Braid, and Geometry Wars 2. Game sale, game score average, and amount of exclusive come it to part with my conclution.

dreman999
So now were counting arcade games that are judged on a different scale ? you cant honestly believe that Resistance 2 = Geometry Wars 2 or LBP = braid LMAO

An AAAE is an AAAE. xbla game can't suddenly not count just because. I'm not saying LBP or Braid is the better platform or equal.(Though Braid does have better platforming elements.)

Also Floppy, I noticed last time I was game shopping that CC and Braid were not retail games. Aren't those usually are main focus of concern here, or do I need to go back to the testing lab for inconclusive results.

I played excellent games on both systems. So I win.

And if it was anybody's year, it was the Wii's year. It's still selling like crazy. Acting like it doesn't exist isn't going to make it go away.

[QUOTE="voxware00"]

but really if you think about it sony had like 3 AAE last year

at least now they have 1 AAAAE and 2 AAAE .. but it's still 3 games

MS also had 3 games for the holidays.. but 2 of them could potenitally go to pc

do these companies actually release games other than during the holiday season, and more than 3 retail games pls

dreman999

Ask you self this question. Does Microsoft care if the games go to pc? They are the ones putting it on pc. I don't understand this 360 vs pc argument. So what if it goes to pc. The question is if you can play it on pc or if you want to. Microsoft still get your money anyway.

try to damage control all you want but losing an exclusive to pc means 1 less reason to own a 360

this isn't about who gets my money(why play sales, this is about games), it's about who has the biggest incentive to own strictly that 1 console.. as a pc owner i would have few reasons to own a 360, and PCs DO count.. we're playing games on them, not sales numbers..i mean you're paying 10$ more for a game that gets outperformed by its cheaper pc counter part, and then paying to play that game online ON TOP of that.. what a joke

it IS a minus in the eyes of somebody who doesn't need to fork over extra money for an MS console when they can just play stuff like gears, mass effect, fable2 and gta4 on their pc with higher res.. makes consoles look like a joke (especially when it looks like the 360 only has 1 AAE retail game the whole year)

would you argue ff13 being ported to 360 is a minus for the ps3? I would, but it's not as big of a minus as if the game were no longer on ps3.. were there any ps3 or 360 games to do such a thing? i know the wii has

So fist a game can't be on-line exclusive. Then it must be under the review tab at all times? Just go to all xbox 360 games. Point is that their still can be used. Reread my TC.

That's what I always believed, or perhaps we're mistaken? Hmmm, back to the lab it is, old chum. http://img73.imageshack.us/img73/9793/kingwx5.gif

So your saying that floaty LBP has better platforming elements than Braid?
