ITS ALL OVER SDF. The Halo avatared lemming has spoken to the Killzone avatared masses, your PS3 is an expensive door stop.Thunderdrone

Iv seen both running and to me its not big enough for me to care.

The fact that they even *threaten* this is serious. It shows just how poor the PS3 is from the overall marketing mix (price, place, product, promotion). PS3 fanboys can harp on all they want about how good cell is or blue ray, etc, (a bit like Betmax > VHS video tape). The fact is the overall marketing mix for this product is terrible.

Things like *dev costs* matter....a LOT. So what if you can pump $50 mill at an exclusive game and make it look good? There's clearly no business model there. One reason PS1/2 were so popular was that third party devs could make decent games for *reasonable* investment. Now, clearly all these devs to fanboys are "Lazy"; the fact is PS3 fanboys need a business reality check, devs make games to make money; PS3 makes this more difficult than other consoles.

Also forget about PS4. Making a new console costs billions, Sony at this time is losing billions, and still can't even make a profit on PS3; it's a disaster from a business perspective. Meanwhile both MS and Nintendo have plenty more cash to throw at this gen (wait for wii price cut), **and** develop the next gen of consoles.

Wow kz2 better than modern warfare? Just wow. Now you know your a fanboy. 360-ps3-wii-pc

Actually no. He said IMO you know which means in my opinion. I think its better then cod too,but again thats my opinion

My opinion is that it's up to each person's personal opnion. Read my sig - then read the post.

What about the salmons?

Actually its best on teh Wii. Just saying

Ah well, no more GH or COD, it seems. Man, what a shame.:( JK, Rock Band is better than GH(even though sales don't agree, but most people do agree, and most people I know have Rock Band as opposed to Guitar Hero), and KZ2, imo, is better than COD. Does that mean no MW2 for PS3? Ah well, less competition for shooters on PS3.:DNYrockinlegend

Huh?

I don't understand.

Are you saying most people prefer Rockband over GH?

Or people you know prefer Rockband over GH..

I don't see why having less FPS on a console is beneficial.

OH NOES!!! THIS will be the death of Sony and the Playstation 3!!!!! Just like last year, and the year before that, and the year before that, and... owait. What's this? PS3 is still here? Weird.Airek49

from your article:

"MR : Personally, I want to show off our PS3 technology. We're one of the few developers who love the PS3 and have a great time with it. We have great technology for the PS3 and we want to show it off.

VG247: Isn't it the same for the 360?

MR: We're running the same game for both platforms but if we made a PS3-only game, for example, you could double the amount of objects on screen that you're seeing. The PlayStation 3 has seven processors and the 360 only has three, so seven versus three means you can do a lot more on the PS3. We're keeping the game the same over both platforms so we don't want to take out any features.

VG247: So is the game scaled down because of the limitations of the 360?

MR : For example, we've reserved one whole processor on the PS3 for Dolby Digital 5.1 sound whereas on the 360 you have part of one processor to do that. So we can have a lot better sound mixing and a lot more effects going on at the same time. That kinds of makes us do a little bit less in the game [360] but makes for better audio. If we're doing a PS3 only game however, we could be doing a lot more. We could be pushing a lot more on the screen."

The game being on 360 limited and toned down the Audio/Visuals/Effects.

Why is every one one pointing the finger to Activision the movie is a Sony Pictures movie, I'm sure Sony pressured Activision to hype the PS3 version. Sony hypes everthing and always falls flat on their face.

There is a 8 min forced install on the more expensive PS3 console and the gamecomes up short against the 360.

Activisions CEO has been acting like a real **** this past month with trying to sue for brutal legend, and now this...

[QUOTE="emorainbo"] No more guitar hero for you cows!! Hahahaha!

They want the PS3 to be below $200. That's insane.

[QUOTE="cainetao11"][QUOTE="Shafftehr"] Oye, I hope not... My sister and her kids love Guitar Hero, and they have a PS3 :( Would be a bad move for Activision, I believe. There are a lot of PS3 owners who buy - and would continue to buy - their games.

Omg that is pure Bull. :lol:

The fact is the PS3 is hard to develop for and the extra tiime cost Devs more money and plus the PS3 has a smaller user base, that plays more of role then blaming MS.

[QUOTE="Shafftehr"][QUOTE="cainetao11"]Evidently, not enough. That's one of the points of the threat. He also said it's expensive to develop games for. Return-Fire
