If Sony gets Halo, Mario, and Gears, will they have a chance?

But seriously, what can Sony possibly do now to compare to Microsoft's insane 2008 lineup and online features? They are going to have to announce something crazy!!

I personally cant wait for their conference!

Yeah this is a big blow to Sony. I love my PS3 and it gets far more play than my Wii and 360, but only a major fanboy would deny that this is a bad turn of events for the PS3. Its not as big a deal as most make it out to be, but seriously there is nothing Sony could announce tommorow to top this. If they announced FFVII remake, Chrono Trigger remake and MGS5, but....lol.

Insane? The only surprise was FFXIII.

We knew about every other thing shown.

Insane?

No, it's surprising, but not Insane. Exaggeration FTL.

I don't think the 360's line-up is that amazing. The only games that I want to play are Gears and Fable. That is it. I am very satisfied with the line-up that the PS3 has.

You are announcing games that are already out. Haze, MGS4. Bioshock?? HAze was terrible. Bioshock has been out on the 360 for over a year. I feel bad even rubbing it in at thsi point. It's like kicking a dead squirrel.

You don't have to abandon your ps3..you still get to play ff13 at the end of the day. Can't you guys see that the 360 is also in a similar situation? All their big games go multiplatform to the pc..who would expect gears of wars to go pc? Halo going pc?

Well i dont know, i mean, i was going to buy a ps3 for FFXIII now i might not, now i might get a 360 (Im dead serious see my profile ps3 tag thingo which i have yet to update)
I think not havin FFXII is making sony's line up less appealing. I think in the end ill prob still get a ps3, RROD scares me, plus it had bluray

Only way for Sony to win this war is PRICE CUT and some killer EXCLUSIVE titles.

Otherwise people who dont own console will go for cheaper one (x360) and wii is not really threat to anyone right now

And Microsoft made some REALLY good moves which could lead them to win this gen war + BE PREPARED FOR NEXT (the one who wins more money this year will have MORE RESOURCES FOR NEXT so they will be on HORSE they can build bether console)

Look at Wii Nintendo didnt have lot money so they so they didnt go on pure POWER they went inovation, Sony had money from before (play station 2) and Microsoft well they have most money lol

you have to admit fanboy or not that Home sounds like the lamest thing ever. I hate to say it but Sony is really tanking this gen. It's an overpriced console that really has some really lame initiatives and has not lived up to the hype in any of them. I still think even MGS was overrated and that was the only game that delivered in some regards.. They had all this hype how motorstorm and warhawk were going to be these amazing games and they were very simplified and bland. Reality is setting in. The best thing the ps3 has going for it is mgsiv and multiplats and the multiplats are better on the 360.

Sony Rep: You may be wondering, how can we compete? Well, we feel it is time to unveil the Playstation 3's next big feature. You will be able to communicate with God! That's right, coming this fall you can use your PS3 to talk to God and ask him any question you want. How do we do it? It's the power of THE CELL! You will not find this feature on any other console!

Nintendo? well they had,but their previous system (game cube) didnt sell verry well so they didnt have much resources for this generation of consoles (at least not as much as Microsoft)

It is smart move by nintendo by steping aside,they dont lose much by makeing wii and they earn so so

No matter how gay the betrayal of squeenix was, im pretty sure they wouldve told sony about going multiplat, so i think sony got some gunz up their sleeves.

and besides, the microsoft conference was BORING, all i liked was the duffy concert, gears2 RE5 and fallout 3 demo. everything else sony announced is a ripoff.

how funny would it be if sony had no idea about the FF13 bombshell

no doubt they'll show some FF13, but they'll just be a bit of a laughing stock when they do because everyone will be thinking of yesterday's big announcement

they need to fall back to their first party. its that simple. no company can rely on 3rd parties on keeping a game exclusive and providing a reason to get a PS3...so it falls on the first party shoulders. a demo of team icos game would go a very long way.

It would be funny, but Sony owns a percentage of SE, so they had to have had a Heads up....the question is did SONY Care enough to counter, OR did they see Multiplat as not a big deal, since PS3 gamers are still able to play it?

That's true. Perception is reality to an extent, but does Sony realize this, so far it doesn't seem like they care...who knows. They either have an ace or they will lose face at this show.

On-Topic: As much as you want it, Sony is in trouble, and hoping for those are pretty sad really. But who knows, might happen, but I doubt it.

actually i heard sony was developing a full body suit like the one old snake wears, except it lets you manipulate game charactors every move. the reason most people havn't heard of it tho is because they have it under wraps until they figuer out the running into walls and shaken baby syndrom.

halo wars

gears of war2

nothing esle :D

Sony-tha-champ0

Yes... Nothing else like Fable 2, Banjo-Kazooie Nuts & Bolts, Saints Row 2, No? Only Halo Wars and Gears of War 2? Gee, I must be imagining things.

It is quite funny when a PS3 fanboy posts lists that include at least two PS3 games that flop and only bothers to post two 360 games... Which is quite funny seeing as E3 is in full swing, and that most people notice the News when they arrive at the main page, maybe you should check it out, burst your own bubble.
