I have nothing against the 360, but I am getting frustrated with sony for not making some exclusive deals with some jrpg-developers(a hot topic, I know) or at least get in on the action(multiplat). I bought the ps3 for their previous history, basically their jrpgs, mgs and Team Ico but now I don't know, they seem to be losing their identity.

Blommen

Agreed. At least these games are still coming to PS3 though.

[QUOTE="Shinobishyguy"]the 360 is essentially the ps2 of this gen.Zoso-8

That's definately going out on a limb.

Not really, both had horrible hardware, great game catalogues, and both were milk machines (tons of expensive extras), the only difference is in sales.

Exactly, the 360 will never even come close to the PS2 in terms of sales.

I too wish to congratulate MS for their recent expansion in bring more jrpgs to the 360. It's really made me take notice of the console. While calling 360 "the shooter console" may not have been 100% fair, there was enough validity in the comment that it turned me away from it (not being a fan of the genre). But all that's in the past, because I friggin need Tales of Vesperia.

The only credit I give to Microsoft and the 360 is to acknowledge Microsoft's ability to bribe developers. The only reason the company wasn't broken up in 2000 after the anti-trust judgement was because the company was pardoned by George Bush.AmyMizuno

Like Sony bribed Rockstar for the GTA timed exclusivity deals last generation?

Let me guess, Rockstar just gave that to them out of the goodness of their own hearts? :lol:

Excuse me, Sony earns the respect and admiration of third party publishers and developers, that's why they receive the best exclusive games. Microsoft is ruining not only the JRPG sub-genre by attracting them to the Xbox 360, but they're also destroying console gaming as a whole. It's a sad sad era to be a gamer.

Also, yes third parties do it out of friendship to Sony as a whole. They owe their existence to the Playstation platform, without them most of these companies supporting the Xbox 360 would have died a long time ago.

Sony is holy and righteous.

Sony's CEO kisses 10 babies a day to make sure they grow up and live full lives.

Sony's COO cries when a game doesn't score AAA. Literal tears. Because he cares about gamers so much.

Sony's CFO spends his nights gaming. Why? So that he can be #1 in Warhawk. Because he loves gaming so much.

Sony's executive team understand that without their contributions, the world would die in a fiery nuclear holocaust. So they fight on.

For you.

For me.

Shiva... I just don't know where to begin..

Business isn't about being friends, the "friends" in business revolve around the kind that speaks "what's in it for me?" not the "Oh because we are so good as friends, here take this!"

Sorry... but learn something about business before you speak.

MS isn't ruining anything, they are playing the game with money, the thing that makes the world goes around. If you disagree then frankly... you take it too seriously I think. What is MS really ruining? They just are trying to do their best to get titles for their system for people who play games... that is all.

Its okay Amy. I mean you act as if Microsoft is performing monopolistic tactics in gaming like Nintendo did with the NES. Companies have always been competing for exclusives since the begining of gaming. I mean people like systems with the most games. So why is it a problem to secure games for your platform while making it so the opposition doesn't gain them.

Hell you think that Sony has never given money to developers for exclusive games? Look at Lair. Sony Published Factor 5's game. Hell remember Street Fighter 2 for the SNES?

Hell you realize that Sony owns 18.6% stake in Square right?

This is getting annoying Amy. I feel as if you don't like Microsoft and 360 just because they aren't JPN :|

Oh and I thought 360 was a shooter console. That's what you said right? Well here's what I have to say to that.

Why have I not seen this sooner? How could I have miseed what was right before my eyes all this time? How could I have stood so long in darkness, waiting for Sony to show me the light?

I will repent my evil ways! I will damn Microsoft to the farthest regions of hell and I will cast my Xbox consoles and all Microsoft products into the firey depths along with them...

I have been enlightened good sir, and I have but you and Amy Mizuno to thank for it...

How the hell is a game bad because it's on a console. Last I checked 360 has the better multiplat games most of the time so it's not like the 360 has some aura of suck around it.

BTW, like the only developers who were "Saved" by Sony were Insomniac and Naughty Dog. Bungie and Bioware got into the whole console thing because of the Xbox and the 360 is helping out Mistwalker, so yeah.

Exclusives are great for me. They tend to be the games that push the systems further, and are often great experiences.

Ruined gaming for you? You said you have an Xbox 360 what the hell are you...never mind I don't want to know.

I think what he meant to say was "i spent a lot of money on a PS3 and can't get any of those yummy exclusives for the 360, that i really wanna play but i bought thw rong console, so i'm mad. humph."

To those thinking I'm being sarcastic in any way, shape or form I promise you that I'm being totally serious, this is all serious business to me. Any company that seeks third party exclusives deserves to lose, and lose hard. Also shame on these third party publishers giving special treatment to platforms, especially the Xbox 360. How am I supposed to play a Japanese game on an American console, better yet, why would I want to?

First of all, the controller isn't built for either a turn-based or action oriented RPG, it's only good for shooters of the generic persuasion. Second, Japanese software and American hardware don't mix, it's just too odd and after all these years all real RPG fans have become attached to the superior mix of Japanese hardware & Japanese software. Even if the software isn't there yet, just the idea of it being there is satisfying.

Think about it, a Japanese game on an American console? Just thinking about it sends a shiver down my spine, truely this is heresy and the beginning of the end of the game industry.

To those thinking I'm being sarcastic in any way, shape or form I promise you that I'm being totally serious, this is all serious business to me. Any company that seeks third party exclusives deserves to lose, and lose hard. Also shame on these third party publishers giving special treatment to platforms, especially the Xbox 360. How am I supposed to play a Japanese game on an American console, better yet, why would I want to?

First of all, the controller isn't built for either a turn-based or action oriented RPG, it's only good for shooters of the generic persuasion. Second, Japanese software and American hardware don't mix, it's just too odd and after all these years all real RPG fans have become attached to the superior mix of Japanese hardware & Japanese software. Even if the software isn't there yet, just the idea of it being there is satisfying.

Think about it, a Japanese game on an American console? Just thinking about it sends a shiver down my spine, truely this is heresy and the beginning of the end of the game industry.

I agree, i would rather get a tattoo of a goat snorting cocaince off a baby's wiener then support MS.

Down with terrorism, down with MS, down with 360!!!

Japanese games have been on American consoles for some time, and while were at it... the Japanese consoles have had plenty of American support for a long time too... :| You just take this too seriously and seriously have some issues I think. What is wrong here? Nothing. This is just business and how it works...

The way you act about it, I mean... seriously how is this hurting you? Other than some ridiculous fanboyish ways... that just make no sense...

Im not sure about all the Japanese game + hardware bit, but the 3rd party exclusive comment is dead on. 3rd party studios are loyal to the paycheck. They will develop on whatever platform will pay them. For instance, Star Ocean will very likely appear on the PS3 since it has a large playstation following. They know they will make money on it, so it makes sense for them to do it. Im not sure about a lot of these others, and frankly dont care. Final Fantasy is a lock for PS3, and other than Star Ocean, I see no other JRPG that can compete.

This thought just occured to me while reading this thread, and in the wake of SO4's exclusivity and the other jrpg announcements. In all honesty, does Japan even get a claim on these styles of RPG's anymore? Anyone got some sales numbers comparing US and EU rpg sales to Japan?

As sick as it makes me feel to admit it, maybe these devs are starting to realize that the Wii ain't a fad. The Japanese just don't care anymore (save for Monster Hunter and DQ), and they're no longer where the majority of rpg sales go (assuming what I think to be true.) The genie's out of the bottle, its moved on to greener pastures, and the bottle doesn't want it back anyways. God, todays news has bummed me out :(

It's no wonder I thought your post was a joke because your followup has to be the most ridiculous bunch of xenophobic garbage I've seen in quite a long time.

Sony has been seeking third party exclusives since it entered the business, and quite frankly, they wouldn't be alive in this business without them. The fact of the matter is, every hardware maker in the industry actively seeks them out. Without them, our consoles would be nigh indistinguishable. Without the third party exclusive muscle in the form of Gran Turismo, Final Fantasy, Tekken, GTA, and many more I don't feel like listing, Sony would've died out faster than you can say Dreamcast. Third party exclusives are what drive the industry.

To reinforce this point. Name to me the most popular PS3 games hitting the console in the near future. Oh wait, you don't have to, because I'll do it for you. Metal Gear Solid 4, Metal Gear Solid 4, and...oh yeah, Metal Gear Solid 4. Konami and Kojima Productions are third party developers are they not? A bit further down the line we have Final Fantasy XIII, Versus XIII, White Knight Story and Little Big Planet. All big name, far hyped third party exclusives. Don't come to me and say developers haven't been giving special treatment to Sony for years now since you'd be speaking lies of the highest order.

Superior combination of Japanese Hardware and software. Please. I guess Western developers should just publish all their games on the Xbox 360 then, since it's an american console. Well, I guess that means no Killzone 2, Resistance 2, and Grand Theft Auto 5, Bioshock for you! What a pity.

Real RPG fans, right. If the gamer you describe isthe definition of a "Real RPG fan" then I want no part of it. I'll continue to support the japanese development community in their efforts and continue to laugh at all these hardcore Otaku types who can't stand to see their Japanese games be "defiled" by being developed on an American console. Heh. Cry me a river. :wink:

Sony does not seek exclusives, exclusives seek Sony.
