Cows, are you happy with Sony's exclusive lineup this year?

[QUOTE="FlamesOfGrey"]

[QUOTE="waltefmoney"]

Well I guess that depends on your definition of decent.

As an example 2 90+ games on Metacritic and one 80+ is what I would consider decent.

3 games at around 70 however isn't.

GreySeal9

Considering that I don't put any stock in review scores since they don't affect my enjoyment or opinions on games, that doesn't mean anything to me.

I'm sure Sony like any company would like their games all to be 90+ Metacritic games. I however, don't work for them.

Since you're going on scores 70 means a "good game" to alot of reviewers. For a decent year yes, 3 games at the level is fine. If you're talking about a great or amazing year then multiple games scoring 80-90+ is necessary.

Could've fooled me with this all this damage control.

So, you judge a systems year on the opinions of others then? I mean if I enjoyed playing Twisted Metal,Starhawk, and Little Big Planet Karting for example, Sony had a decent year to me. This year is looking decent not looking anything more then that which is fine. Metacritic really has nothing to do with it unless I wasn't going to play the games myself and was an outsider looking in.FlamesOfGrey

I do.

If Halo 4 gets a 72 at Metacritic, Forza Horizon gets a 74, I would say that this is a bad year for 360.

[QUOTE="GreySeal9"]

lol. That's pretty fvcking serious. Good thing you can't OD on seriousness. Or maybe you can... :shock:

freedomfreak

lol

Subrosian was a pretentious dick tho, so I'm not going to pour out any liquor for him.

[QUOTE="darkspineslayer"][QUOTE="GreySeal9"]Yes, it is.

It would have a higher score if sites like GetPaidSpot hadn't marked it down for being a downloadable game.

GreySeal9

Wow. You just destroyed your credibility with that comment. Actually, I'd go as far as to say I don't believe you've actually played Pushmo.

[QUOTE="darkspineslayer"] I've got something better than scores...having actually played the game. I didn't say it wasn't a good puzzle game, it's just nothing special.darkspineslayer

I have to give you props. You got to your friends house and borrowed his 3DS pretty quickly. Does he live next to you?

I just made a serious sandwich with ham, crisps and peppers.

I didn't say you did fool me. I said you could've. There's a difference.

waltefmoney

Peppers are not a serious fruit and ham is nota serious meat. Why do you think they call the act of acting flamboyant on stage, "hamming it up"?

The crisps are legit tho.

Seriously, whatever you do don't but pickled onion flavoried crisps.

Mario Kart 7 is a shameless rehash and trying to give it a numbered title after all these years of not doing that is total failure.

Also, the only reason I don't have any friends is because other people aren't on my level. Other people exist only as pawns for me to achieve my goals. Once they've served their purpose, I discard them.

Who cares? The PS3 will be closing this gen with new Triple A IPs while the Xbox is just more of the same! And more than Triple A games Beyond and LAU are games trying to revolutionize console gaming as we know it and pushing the PS3 to higher limits just before this gen ends. And not to mention GOW-Ascension or the games from Sucker Punch, Guerrilla Games, Team Ico and FFsv from Square-Enix. While the XBox is just more Halo, Forza, Gears and Kinect. Don't you guys get tired of playing the same games every year?

Lemmings may have won this year's little skirmish but Cows already won this war and we are gonna enjoy it until the very end. :cool:

From all the exclusives we know about for the PS3, I don't think I'll be getting another for the rest of the PS3's life time. It will be multiplats from now on

More evidence that cows have low standards. I can almost guarantee you that Gue1 thought Lair was all that and a bag of chips.

The only two ps3 titles that are even remotely interesting to me are both psn titles: Journey and Dust 514.

Lbpk and battle Royale don't interest me in the slightest. The other retail exclusives flopped in scores and sales.

You forgot Wonderbook, that is the game of games

It's a little weak, first time really since 08. Even then, 3 new IPs in one year is nice. We haven't seen a TM game in 10 years and though LBPK is jumping on another IP, it is still different at its core. Better than playing the same three exclusive every two years. I'll just hide behind multiplats and arcade games until next year. *shrug*senses_fail_06

The 3 new IP's argument doesn't really fly if they're flopping left and right. Especially with something like Sorcery.

loosingENDS

You aren't suspended!

Finally some good news.

loosingENDS

To be fair, while Wonderbook is pretty lame, it's still better than Fable.

No. 2012 is a bad year for gaming in general IMO, not just for PS3. It kinda reminds me of PS3's first year zzzz. It's cool though the past years have been awesome and next year PS3 will end with great games! Last of Us, Last Guardian, GOW acension.... and maybe something else... Guerrilla games new IP? Killzone 4? We will see.

Its not its best year, but then again, every Sony hater on the boards is here to try and make them look worse :lol:

I guess one year that isn't great in a long time is like a party for you guys?

meh, they dont have anything that interests me this year. my ps3 isnt even hooked up to my tv anymore cause i needed the hdmi cable for something else lol the only game im really looking forward to from sony is last of usmems_1224

To be fair, I don't really blame you. The PS3 was really only meant to be a back-up BluRay player that plays some games on the side. It's not really a serious system for serious gamers.

An A is an A. It is your fault you used metacritic for this thread. Even still, Starhawk, Dust and S.A.S. are all new IPs. senses_fail_06

An A is an A when it's Kinect too, though that won't prevent the bovine from letting it rip.

[QUOTE="Stevo_the_gamer"]What about PSN?waltefmoney

Well this is about retail titles really, as is stated in the OP.

It's entirely possible to be happy with PSN's offerings this year though.

It's just that over the years in SW cows have been the faction that placed the biggest importance on retail exclusives from the three companies so I wanted to hear their opinion on this year's lineup.

Lem used to love bragging about retail exclusives, until they fell behind. Now it seems they'd prefer to pretend they never cared.:shock:

on topic: pretty bleh looking list. I haven't bought any, and Twisted Metal is the only one I'd consider.

I couldn't imagine it being hell for anyone. Especially someone like me who plays on PC, PS3, and Wii. Then again, if you think its been hell for cows this year, you;re basically admitting that almost this entire gen was hell for you lems. Duh... Duh... DUHHHH... lollx_theo

This is how desperate to win something cows actually are.

This entire gen has been hell for you, being reduced to only one single argument all these years - the first party.

And when you don't have that, you simply go insane. Your mind can't comprehend having nothing to left, so it must protect itself somehow.

Yeah PS3's offerings this year are pathetic.

Starhawk looks okay but not really missing out on anything by not getting it.

Not interested in a game from a dead/boring genre like TM

Lol sorcery.

And while I love LBP I'm not interested in Modnationracers 2.0

Then again, this whole year is pathetic for retaill all around. Only retail games I'm interested in are Halo 4 and maybe Hitman Absolution.

All the good games that i hoped were coming this year (Tomb Raider, South Park the Stick of Truth, MGR:R, GTAV, The Last of Us) are now 2013 games.

But Journey was great.

Im VERY happy about this years line up. got to play an amazing online game like Starhawk,Journey, Malicious, Tales of Graces F then soon there is Sly4, Ratchet and Clank, counter strike, etc

the better question is are Lems happy with Ms this line up this year? :o

Not a Cow, but the last time I really played my PS3 was when Uncharted 3 came out last year. I've messed with it here and there, but nothing good has come out this year as far as I'm concerned. So basically Sony's exclusive lineup sucks this year, although Cows will try and deny it.

It's not just Sony though. MS and Nintendo haven't done much this year either. 2012 the year of the multi-platform game. I think all 3 manufactures have already given up on this generation and are ready to move on. Now if they would just do it, and stop screwing around.

[QUOTE="darkspineslayer"] it's a good argument. Microsoft has never had a great 1st party lineup. They've always relied on 2nd party exclusives and third party multiplats.lx_theo

To be fair, I was totally with you until you mentioned PS3. PS3 is pretty much 360 for weaboos.
