Multiplayer games exclusive to ps3

All of sony's biggest multiplayer franchises have now been released on ps3 and none have become what sony hoped. Here's a list: Resistance, Killzone, MAG, Socom, Haze, even Uncharted couldn't stand against microsoft's best multiplayer games. Killzone, Sony's biggest ace in the hole has kicked the bucket with only 250 players on at one time.

after all these games have released, what else is there for sony? will they still release bucket loads of shooters in the hope that one of them will become a successful franchise or will they finally accept that their studios are better suited for single player games. unfortunately for them, single player games don't cut it anymore which is evident in their sales. Anything on sony's console is only worth a rent.

If I'm able to get on playstation network and find a match for a game within a reasonable amount of time, I don't care.

[QUOTE="civic_misfit"][QUOTE="kentaro22"]final fantasy 13FIipMode

they tryed their best with MAG

it almost screamed "BUY ME"

- generic FPS that everyone seems to like these days

- LOTS of people shooting eachother

- exclusive

if that dosent help then i dont know what will

Your last sentence is a huge generalization.

I can see where you are coming at, but IMO Modnation Racers has a shot at it, LBP did a number as well.

A online game doesn't need WoW or Halo numbers to be succesfull. Sony didn't release any real "system seller" i.e. Sonic for Sega or Halo for MS yet, but it already has a solid library (IMO). GT5 and GOW3 will change that.

I think an important reason also is that MS tries to get as much Gold members as possible, therefore they wanted a strong multiplayer focus in games right from the start. PSN doesn't not have a profit incentive. Sony doesn't aim for the most people online, but simply the most game sales.

$ony need to buy Halo ,they need good MP games, i almost feel bad for them :(devilsoultaker2

100% agreed tc. single player only games suck

Umm, I don't know where you are getting you info from, but Resistance 2 online did very well for a few months, Killzone 2's also did well, and MAG started out strong and is still going strongULTIMATEZWARRIO

What are you smoking, 250 players only?!?!?

Do you even own a PS3? Have you even played Killzone or any of the game you mentioned.

Resistance wasn't even about the online.

Killzone is stil living it up.

MAG is doing alot better then every one thinks it is.

Can you really have a say in any of this?

It has not evolved much since 1996 or so. The graphics are better and they added online. That's about it.

I'm with you Parasomniac.

I think thanks to MP developers have gotten lazy on the single players.

[QUOTE="FIipMode"][QUOTE="devilsoultaker2"] you think they have good MP games? Lol.devilsoultaker2

Are you a MW 2 player? cause that game takes no skill. All about connection.

And Halo? ha, first one to the rockets wins :)

I'd like you to play Killzone and say that again

[QUOTE="devilsoultaker2"][QUOTE="Parasomniac"] even the worst multiplayer games "did well for a few months" so that's not really impressive and mag won't last till the end of the month. even some ps3 fanboys will admit that they were disappointed with resistance 2 and killzone 2 doesn't even have enough people playing it to fill 1 game of MAG lol.civic_misfit

Lol this guy says 250 people on killzone 2.

I was on Socom before my ps3 died. Their lobbies contain 256 people for each gaming lobby. On a thursday night 20 of those rooms were filled up. Socom does

have a big fanbase.

No, i doubt any EXCLUSIVE fps will sell more than halo this year.halo attracts all 360 players. 10 players off of my ps3 list bought uncharted 2.3 of them borrowed it. Yeah and i have close to 100 friends..

Or conversely one could use the argument that the single player campaigns are so short and boring in those games that people are forced to play online to get any form of real entertainment. It's easy to have better and dynamic AI when it's player controlled instead of being a bot.

I mean the TC said himself, "The Sony studios are best at single player games." Using deductive reasoning I can infer that the only reason to buy 360 games is to continually play the multiplayer and nothing else.

MP is fun, but it's not the only thing.

3 of them borrowed it. Yeah and i have close to 100 friends..

I'm with you Parasomniac.

This is what I'm saying. If you're happy with mostly MP, good for you. That's less the work the devs have to do programming AI. Just make controls and several maps and send people off to be trigger happy.

I hate people that buy a game and go straight to the multiplayer without touching the SP. I was playing on Uncharted 2 with a guy that was a Level 50 about 2 weeks after the game came out. I just ask, "Dude, did you even PLAY the through the single player story?" He just goes, "No. I actually played the demo and bought it for the MP." That's just sad to me. A great MP should be a welcome addition to a single player campaign without making it an afterthought.

I still haven't played BC2 online (aside from the beta and demo) since I was playing through the campaign. I told my former roommate that it was really good and he should try it. An hour or two later I get the message "Campaign is boring."

I just hope people like this aren't responsible for the amount of effort put into games in the future.

Wow, GameSpot must not have been paying attention then. Apparently they gave Best Multiplayer Game and Best Shooter to a game nobody plays! :shock:

Rather than debate the importance of single player and multiplayer, I would rather have the option to play both. On 360, you can play some of the best multiplayer games of the generation like Halo 3 and excellent single player games like Alan Wake and Splinter Cell. PS3 offers excellent single player games but it's most touted fps has 0 players online. maybe fanboys should go play killzone instead of comparing it to every 360 exclusive.civic_misfit

didnt cows claim MAG was going to be the Halo-killer...? lol..!

Rofl, so the site is telling me not 1 person is playing killzone2. ROFL

2. Haze isn't a Sony Franchise, it was a miserbable peice o shyt

3. Modern Warfare 2 is the best multiplayer game on 360 and PS3 so there is no point in saying otherwise.

3. Modern Warfare 2 is the best multiplayer game on 360 and PS3 so there is no point in saying otherwise.

1. yes it does say 1222 logged in players but it also says 0 total players and 0 active games.

2. Haze is a ps3 exclusive that was hyped by cows.

3. modern warfare 2 might be the best multiplayer game on ps3 but not 360.
