[QUOTE="foxhound_fox"][QUOTE="qewrewq"]MGS4 isn't a great exclusive? come on now.qewrewq


Buying a $450 console for one game is not my idea of great value.

I didn't say MGS4 alone is worth buying a PS3 for, there are other games as well, and future exclusives. you said PS3 had no great exclusives and I proved you wrong, that's it.

you nor i currently play future games

prais them when you know they are good not when its just a imaginary purple blob with a name like de blob

[QUOTE="foxhound_fox"][QUOTE="qewrewq"]PS3 no, 360 no, even though the PS3 is kinda lacking right now, it gets all multiplatform/big games, the Wii's third party support on the other hand is terrible, there's no reason to buy a Wii over 360/PS3 if you're not interested in the first party titles, period.surrealnumber5


But the PS3 has no great exclusives and most of the multiplatforms are as equal as or better on the 360. Most of it's truly fantastic exclusives aren't coming until mid-2009.

MGS4 isn't a great exclusive? come on now.

i would say good just like nmh but thats my view diff strokes for diff folks

fact

3.a truth known by actual experience or observation; something known to be true

or an opinion what is a fact or truth to me may not be for you

Yeah, whether you like the game or not is just opinion, but MGS4 was a system seller as you can see in the latest NPD numbers, it's loved by many hardcore gamers and is getting great scores from almost all sites, these factors are what defines a great exclusive.

it bumped ps3 to 1.5 times what it was for one month and those were packed in

saying its a great system seller is just like saying wii sports is the one true, the alpha and the omega,GOD!

did you just read until " NPD numbers "??

also, it got the ps3 from 200k to 400k (i think, can't be bothered looking for the numbers), that's not bad at all, so it is a system seller.

ok, you're right, that's why I don't own a PS3 or a Wii...or a 360. maybe when the libraries are good enough and price goes down I'll buy a next-gen console, but as of now I'm pretty sure it won't be a Wii.

i though it was in the 300k if it were in the 200 yea that would be 2x but that also makes me sad for the ps3. with out sales how will it get to the greatness of ps2 games

if you owned an xbox and a gamecube, get a 360 and a wii.

if you're very concerned about the RROD, get the pc and a wii.

I am currently faced with the same dilemma

This is my own list of games which I'm interested in buying *though I won't have the money to do so, at least, not all of them*~

360: Mass Effect 1-2, Halo3, GoW1-2, Fable 2, Banjo Kazooie, Too Human, SE's future RPGs, Xbox Live > PS3's net layout. Netflix. Love the gamepad.

PS3: Little Big Planet, Uncharted, GT5, Wipeout HD, Fat Princess (PSN), Infamous, MGS4, Resistance 2, Ratchet & Clank, Naruto: Ultimate Ninja Storm, Motorstorm 2, Fracture, GoW3, PSN games > XBLA games. Sheer potential (the cell)? Hate the gamepad.

MultiP: Call of Duty 4, The Orange Box, Bioshock 1-2, GTA IV, Prince of Persia, Soul Cailber IV, Mirror's Edge, Fallout 3, Skate1-2, Resident Evil 5, Final Fantasy XIII, Afro Samurai, SF4, UT3, SF:TFU~


I know that no matter which console I choose to pick in the end, I won't get bored out of my mind like I currently am with the Wii. It seems like the PS3 has more exclusives I am interested in. It also does have more features out-of-the-box (BR, wifi, etc) and online is free. The 360 elite costs as much as the PS3, which is a blatant rip off imo, and HDs are ridiculously overpriced too (200$ for a 120gb HD? D:). But the online communities on the 360 are way larger and lively and that alone seems to offset pretty much everything else~ I don't even know what to do anymore lol.

Did I miss any games worth looking into? (don't mention Spore) or is there anything else that could help me make a decision?
