That due to the "recent turn of events", coupled w/ the release of LBP, the momentum of the 2008 year is with Sony. And yes, I am well aware that the year is not over. Feel free to discuss what MS and Nintendo can do to derail said momentum and damage control is most certainly encouraged!bez2083
The hype for lbp has already taken this year, its not really a big deal both systems have good games coming out the 360 just waiting for the end of the year for good game release's while the ps3 has released a few threw out the year
2 games makes your year? I'd rather play NG2, Fable 2, Too Human, Braid, Geo Wars2, Castle Crashers, Banjo and Gears than mgs4 or lbp. hopesfall2own
Well, that's you. but you can't deny that at the moment Sony is FINALLY starting to turn the corner.

Or you could start to question gamespot's reviewers, both LBP and the recent one have been basic copy/paste jobs from ign while shaving points.[QUOTE="bez2083"][QUOTE="hopesfall2own"]2 games makes your year?

But at the end of the day, if you planned on buying it, you will enjoy it. But in SW terms, scoreboard for the cows.

If you're going by the review scores (and admittedly, I don't) then yes. Still, I think these next few months will be good all around.

exclusives yes.The PS3 did very well in 2008. in the beginning, it went from being the laughing stock of the video game community, to getting some major killer apps (MGS4, Gran Turismo Prologue, etc.), a ton of games, winning the Blu-Ray vs HD-DVD war, outselling the 360 (yes, worldwide, PS3 did outsell the 360 from January 1 to the present), get major PSN updates to make the online experience just like XBL (in game XMB, more buddy list support, trophies for games, etc.), and the year isn't even over. Little Big Planet, Resistance 2, MotorStorm 2, and a flood of multiplats have yet to come out, and HOME is coming out in November, which will make the PSN online experience even more satisfying than XBL (did I mention it's FREE). And there is plenty of momentum to not only win the holidays, but to be carried over into 2009, especially w/ Killzone coming out in February. I think the PS3 did a superb job in 2008.

hopesfall2own
Disgaea 3 has been keeping me occupied for a while now and I believe it scored somewhere in the upper 7 range here at GS, which is pretty solid. There's also Valkyria Chronicles and Resistance which are both shaping up to be very good games. And since you have some downloadable games in your list, there have been some very worthwhile ones on PS3 this year.

Ok ok , Im sorry but Geo wars, braid, castle crashers arn't real games they are things to pass the time such as Pixel junk monster, and all those other arcade/PSN download games Don't try to count them since most people don't download them no matter how good they are
Banjo isn't out yet, and frankly it doesn't look to great, Too human is out and is a horrible game, Gears nga and fable are solid tho I wouldn't pay for NG2 since its like the first one but worst....
Tho I wouldn't pay for Motostorm,and valkyria chronicles and while Knight aren't out so I can't really judge since they have no games to base them off of.
This list is also based off games what the masses plan to buy
But ps3 already has LBP, MGS4, Resistance, socom
360 gears 2, Fable 2

I don't like ps3 fanboys either, 8.5 is a very good score for the game and far worth buying, I know Im picking it up tonight at midnight

Man, I can list some "lower level" PS3 games this year as well. Those MGS4 and LBP are the AAAAE and AAAE's of the year so far, that's it.
Face it, the only way 360 competes this year GAMEWISE would be if gears gets a 10 :P

Whats funnier is you thinking 2 games makes a year.

Or should i also list PSN games? Then i could add GT5 Prologue, R&C Quest for Booty, Eden, Monsters, etc? Also, i'd like to insist, most of the games you listed are flops: NG2, Fable 2, Too Human and Braid, all flops. There's no twisting this my friend. I listed more games, and games with better scores (that's counting MGS4 and LBP).

Yeah, don't get me wrong, I thought it would be 360's first AAAE this year...I love how you call it flopable 2. In a earlier post i saw you defending the PS3 saying it has more than just 2 big games. LMAO now your calling a 8.5 a flop. Alright well i don't know the exact numbers but i think the PS3 has 1 AAAA movie and 1 AAA game. The 360 has 7 or so AAA games.
Anyways i'll be enjoying The Last Remenant, Left 4 Dead, Gears 2, and Banjo Kazooie, well i guess you'll be having fun watching your movie and making levels. and almost forgot to mention Fable 2.

7 exclusive AAAs? would you care to list them?
Also, you got a nice list up there. I just wonder if it really is better than PS3's White Knight Chronicles, Valkyria Chronicles, Resistance 2, MotorStorm Pacific Rift, etc...
i think ps3 owners are going to only have bragging rights on this forum but in reality 360 owners will be enjoying fable 2, gears 2, l4d etc
i still dont think the ps3 has redeemed itself. 2 good exclusives is something the 360 delivered 2 years ago

Besides you're just skewing my actual post for pleasure( or w/e it is) Anyways nice try but you ignore truth.

true. the PS2 also had a horrible launch, but one year later there were lots of solid new IPs, just like the PS3 with so many great new IPs. Then the sequels to the great well-known series comes 2 years after the console's release.
Fixed. And Halo 3 and Forza 2 were both released just 1 year ago.i think ps3 FANBOYS are going to only have bragging rights on this forum but in reality 360 owners will be enjoying fable 2, gears 2, l4d etc

I agree to an extent. The people that owned one at launch should be pissed that they had to wait this long for quality games. But as of this moment, 10/20/2008 @ 11:47 PM the rest of PS3's 2008 is looking better than the rest of XB360's 2008.

If Motorstorm: Pacific Rift, SOCOM: Confrontation, and Resistance 2 all get AA, then maybe you can say it's Sony's year... Maybe... Actually, no... You can't... Nintendo would still be winning.

yep this i can agree with. score wise on gamespot the ps3 is winning this year. unless r2 flops and gears 2, banjo and l4d all get AAA then i will have to say the ps3 won 08 even though i don't like any of those games.
