Lair? Warhawk? Heavenly Sword? the PS3 price drop?

Even I started to believe a little bit of the hype, but as it turns out, the PS3 still cant even pass the 360 in monthly NA sales (which doesnt bode well when considering Halo 3 is coming out in Sept, and the the 360 is getting a price drop of its own) but worst of all, PS3's exclusives are flopping left right and center. What's more, the Wii is absolutley freakin crushing everything in sight.

The 360 and the Wii are getting big games this Christmas that are gauranteed to deliver huge sales (Halo 3, Bioshock, Mass Effect, Galaxy, Brawl, MP3) and big scores. I don't think it's wise to put the same faith in Sony's offerings at this point.

Just like Sony though.... overhyping and under-delivering....

as usual.

Call me strange, but those games you mentioned didn't excite me in the slightest. Maybe because I dont like shooters much and I lost faith in Ninkiddy back in the N64 disaster. Sorry Fanboyee!

Honestly, I'm incredibly disappointed. Phil Harrison failed me in a big way. The first party titles were supposed to rush in and saturate the market in gaming goodness. That's literally Phil Harrison's obligation. He screwed up with Motorstorm, Genji, Warhawk, and Heavenly Sword.

Although Lair isn't under his jurisdiction, it's failure is well noted by people skeptical of the Playstation 3. Literally, Phil Harrison's failure notes a seriously marked drop in interest in the Playstation 3.

In reality, I'm expecting the only decent first party titles coming out of Sony studios to be from the top tier, such as Corey Barlog, Insomniac, Sucker Punch, Media Molecule, and Naughty Dog. Guerilla is a possibility, but it's primarily based on how much they've changed.

I'm extremely upset to learn how short all of these games are and how light they are on gameplay, regardless of their absolutely movie-busting production values. Heavenly Sword's got it in spades, but what the hell, where did the gameplay go? I'm just mind-numbingly irritated right now.

Then again, if Warhawk scores 8.5 or above, I'll restore some semblance of faith in these folks. Echochrome looks fantastic but it's not what people are looking for on PS3 (superb downloadable titles are a plus, and even bad ones aren't a minus...but little spruced up PC casual games with high particle counts and enhanced physics don't sell consoles).

The only game that I can say I have an extreme amount of faith in, knowing the developers and having played Resistance: Fall of Man, is Ratchet and Clank Future: ToD.

We'll see how it goes, but TC speaks the truth. Far too much floppage, far too much insanity as far as region-locked price drops.

Please don't tell me you're actually interested in Viva Pinata: Party Animals and Scene It. Please don't tell me that's the case.

If I'm not going to act like Lair and Heavenly Sword are going to be GotY genre breakthroughs, please don't act like trash such as Scene it and VP: PA (not dev'd by Rare BTW) are going to make it anywhere. And the IGN Blue Dragon review just about killed the game for me, even if Sakaguchi does have some magic left. LO has a chance to be extremely good, and the guy still comes from an excellent pedigree.

Naruto....okay, put it this way: if it was on PS3, I would ignore it, I wouldn't care how good it was. Stick to the shooters, dude, they're mostly good on the Xbox 360.

Potentially, Ratchet and Uncharted are two extremely heavy hitters. I put them above any game coming out this year, besides perhaps Crysis and Mass Effect.

ummm... no i think viva pinata and scene are going to suck just like i think singstar is going to suck on the ps3 when its released doesnt matter it shows variety.

BTW you dint mention world in conflict, eternal sonata, PGR4, Ace combat six,and mass effect? thats at least5-6 games that you think are pretty good which is more than enough to say the 360 has something for everyone. I was trying to kill the perception that 360 only has shooters if that list isnt good enough for you than nothing is good enough for you.

I mean i am not saying you have to like every game but i am sure anyone who isn't a shooter fan can find at least 2-4 games that are interesting. For me i want all four rpgs(mass effect, blue dragon, eternal sonata, and lost odyssey) and ace combat six thats more than enough for my non-shooter side.

I often come across as a full fledged Lemming. And even though i have an X360 (i also have a PS2), i'm very level headed and a lil too mature to get caught up in the whole System Wars mindset.

Now that i've given a disclaimer...

I'm very surprised in the early reviews of the games coming out for the games that were poised to give the PS3 a holiday boost. There is obviously something going on. There is no way that this many developers are "not talented enough" to develop for the PS3. I'm a developer by profession, and anyone who is not intelligent enough will get weeded out of this industry pretty quickly.

this fact causes me draw my attention to Sony. It sounds like Sony needs to take a good hard look at their development tools and API.

That being said, I think UT3 is going to keep the PS3 afloat this winter. Epic knows how to make great games. Rachet will also be an interesting game, i think. And when is SOCOM going to be released. That game will attract a TON of gamers (if they werent turned off by SOCOM3).

You make me laugh. Warhawk has gotten good reviews so far. PSM is **** because every other review has given it an 8 or above. AA so far. Lair sucks because people don't like the controls because they don't have an open mind. Kotaku played the demo (check Kotaku.com, it's at first page right now) and they loved Lair and said it's a buy. Heavenly Sword has everything great, but the length of the game. The combat system is great if you ask me. It's addicting. PS3 price drop rose the sales 63%. What I don't like is a fanboy with no facts.

ratchet & clank is the ps3's biggest killer app for the holiday season

which means that sales-wise, the ps3 is in DEEP trouble......because its going against two of the biggest killer app franchises in the video game market - halo and super smash bros....against those two, ratchet and clank doesn't stand a chance

UTIII (don't say PC because not all PCs are gaming rigs), HAZE, Warhawk, Heavenly Sword, Stranglehold Collector's Edition, Hot Shots Golf 5, Folklore, Ratchet and Clank, Singstar, Uncharted. Is that enough for a few months until 2008?

it was apparent to anyone and everyone that these titles were horrible, it is understandable that Cows would hype these titles given the sparsity of the first year PS3 lineup but everyone has been pointing out that these games look mediocre since day one

Wait a bit, save some money and buy a PS3 next year. You'll have more than enough to keep you busy. don't rush into into like you see mindless fanboys do.

I agree, but i think it was a short term sales surge. This months sales will probably go back down.

The system sellers come out early 2008. That's not far away, and if you look at my list above, there are tons of games that can hold a person until then. MGS4, and Killzone 2 are going to be the top system sellers.

[QUOTE="Seckzy_Gamer"]Xbox 360 has some good system sellers this year and the ps3 dontAlbanian_Killa

so R&C isnt a system seller?

Exactly. No one bothers to look at the lineup, they just flame every game. Whatever makes them feel better I guess :lol:

its really not

less than 3% of PS2 owner own the ratched & clank

face the facts: althought the ratchet & clank franchise is quality, itsNOT a system selling franchise

The system sellers come out early 2008. That's not far away, and if you look at my list above, there are tons of games that can hold a person until then. MGS4, and Killzone 2 are going to be the top system sellers.

Killzone 1 sold less than 500k world wide. So how is KZ2 a system seller

ratchet & clank is the ps3's biggest killer app for the holiday season

whichmeans that sales-wise, the ps3 is in DEEP trouble......becasue its going against two of the biggest killer app franchisesin the video game market - halo and super smash bros....against those two, ratchet and clank doesn't stand a chance

UTIII (don't say PC because not all PCs are gaming rigs), HAZE, Warhawk, Heavenly Sword, Stranglehold Collector's Edition, Hot Shots Golf 5, Folklore, Ratchet and Clank, Singstar, Uncharted. Is that enough for a few months until 2008?

If you are hyping Hot Shots Golf and Singstar, you just need to stop..

Just like Guitar Hero, these are system sellers to casuals. Hot Shots Golf is a system seller in Japan for some people. I'm just stating potential good games, not games I hype.

Well the ps3 still sells more than 360 for the time being.

Plus PS2 has a massive install base so im sure alot of people are going for ps3 when they are done with their ps2's. My self included.

Yellow_Rose

The PS3 still sells more more than 360 where?

I think he's referring to the fact that the PS3 outsold the 360 worldwide in July.

Well I can play that game too, and just list all of the Wii and 360 games that I think may be good.

yes, i will say PC forUTIII....because UT III is also available on the PC and will sell more copies on the PC....meaning that it won't be a PS3 killer app

the rest don't stand a chance when pitted against SSB and halo

Lair? Warhawk? Heavenly Sword? the PS3 price drop?

Even I started to believe a little bit of the hype, but as it turns out, the PS3 still cant even pass the 360 in monthly NA sales (which doesnt bode well when considering Halo 3 is coming out in Sept, and the the 360 is getting a price drop of its own) but worst of all, PS3's exclusives are flopping left right and center. What's more, the Wii is absolutley freakin crushing everything in sight.

The 360 and the Wii are getting big games this Christmas that are gauranteed to deliver huge sales (Halo 3, Bioshock, Mass Effect, Galaxy, Brawl, MP3) and big scores. I don't think it's wise to put the same faith in Sony's offerings at this point.

Just like Sony though.... overhyping and under-delivering....

as usual.

jedigemini

You win the price for fanboy#1 at GS. Trying to take a jab against Sony as soon as he gets the chance. PS3 sold better than 360 worldwide. Warhawk has so far gotten AA wich it was hyped and Lair and HS might not have been AAA but they're still looking very promising. If I were you I would worry more about outdated hardware,controlls that are fad and weak third-party.

Ratchet& Clank looks pretty darn good to me. Uncharted looks Ok, but it doesn't really wow me. It's hardly in big trouble while people are still buying it.

I didn't buy Killzone 1 and am getting Killzone 2. There are millions of people like me, and I know tons of people who are dieing to play the game and some don't own PS3s.

Albanian_Killa

That doesn't make sense. How can there be "millions" of people like you if (again) Killzone 1 sold less than 500k world wide.

Please don't tell me you're actually interested in Viva Pinata: Party Animals and Scene It. Please don't tell me that's the case.

If I'm not going to act like Lair and Heavenly Sword are going to be GotY genre breakthroughs, please don't act like trash such as Scene it and VP: PA (not dev'd by Rare BTW) are going to make it anywhere. And the IGN Blue Dragon review just about killed the game for me, even if Sakaguchi does have some magic left. LO has a chance to be extremely good, and the guy still comes from an excellent pedigree.

Naruto....okay, put it this way: if it was on PS3, I would ignore it, I wouldn't care how good it was. Stick to the shooters, dude, they're mostly good on the Xbox 360.

Tactis

ummm... no i think viva pinata and scene are going to suck just like i think singstar is going to suck on the ps3 when its released doesnt matter it shows variety.

BTW you dint mention world in conflict, eternal sonata, PGR4, Ace combat six,and mass effect? thats at least5-6 games that you think are pretty good which is more than enough to say the 360 has something for everyone. I was trying to kill the perception that 360 only has shooters if that list isnt good enough for you than nothing is good enough for you.

I mean i am not saying you have to like every game but i am sure anyone who isn't a shooter fan can find at least 2-4 games that are interesting. For me i want all four rpgs(mass effect, blue dragon, eternal sonata, and lost odyssey) and ace combat six thats more than enough for my non-shooter side.

BUT THE PS 3 DOESN'T HAVE GAMES FOR EVERY ONE. WE HAVE 11 EXCLUSIVES COMING OUT IN 2007. THAT IS RIGHT 11. THAT IS DEFENTLY ANUFF FOR ANY GAMER.
