couple week? not so much of a big deal. PS3 is harder to code we all know that. PS3 is still in it's first year it takes time for devs to get it right.

This is ultimately Sony's fault IMO.

I don't think their devs kits are "user-friendly" enough.

I mean Stranglehold, AoD, AND the Orange Box? WTH man?

Team Fortress 2 should be a hit on XBL. Unless Halo 3 just monopolizes it all.

Doubtful. I don't think the majority (read: most, i.e. casuals) would have the patience to appreciate the complexity of TF2. It will require team work, thinking and strategizing. Not exactly what a lot of casuals want in a shooter.

It mostly seems to be EA and Ubi lagging product for the PS3. Stranglehold was delayed until the same date for PC also.

ginglejangle

Same here. I just want it for the PS3, as it is my preferred console. And also because I am going to buy all multiplats on my PS3. That way, if my 360 decides to lemon out on me again, I will have all of my favorite multiplats to play on my PS3. I just had to have a 360 for it's killer exclusives which I could not bear to pass up.

i) They're already used to it, besides, a few weeks is much better than half a year (RB6, GRAW2)

ii) Plenty of games coming out this fall will soften the blow

iii)This will soon be a thing of the past. More and more games are being released at the same time as their 360 counterpart

The ps3 controller is horrible at fps, triggers are awkward, the controller is not meant for fps.

But to each is own.

Let's see DIRT is from CODEMASTERS and STRANGLEHOLD is from MIDWAY and STUNTMAN is from THQ. Nope...not just EA and Ubisoft. But...uhh...nice try.

Exactly, to each his own. While I do agree that the 360 controller is alot better for shooters, I just have my reasons for buying multiplats on PS3, which I already listed.

What game hasn't been delayed for PS3? If a PS3 game isn't delayed at least once its probably rushed.

Wow, you named only 3 games, and each one is by a different company! You sure are impressive. Make sure to note where I said mostly.

In the end, there aren't many that have been delayed. Most (make sure to notice where I said most, this time, since you completely looked it over before) of the worthwhile multi-plats, this holiday, have simultaneous releases. i.e.: Call of Duty 4, Rock Band, Assassin's Creed, Mercenaries 2, Guitar Hero III.

EA are doing the PS3 port. Valve are doing the 360 port. And Half Life is a great game, why not let more people experience it? im glad, because even though ive beat it on PC years ago, ill enjoy it alot more on my 360.

tiger woods and it was better on ps3.

lol, another half-assed EA game. Tiger Woods was never broken and yet every year they try and "fix" it. All anybody wants is more courses, more items, more courses, and slightly better graphics. Why do they keep trying to make putting even easier? Lets simplify the draw and fade so those shots are even easier as well. And the biggest problem of all, why do they keep removing courses? Year after year, lets take some out and put some new ones in. Its a damn blu-ray disc, you've got plenty of room, how about leaving the damn courses alone and just adding new ones? This game should have 30-40 courses by now.

teamwork addon - $8.99 (comes with quick commands like - OK, Everyone. Protect Me.)
thinking addon - $8.99 (comes with quick commands like - OK, Everyone. Give me the kills. )
strategizing addon - $8.99 ( comes with quick commands like - OK, You take them from the front.)

I hear ya, if thats the case cows, then PS3 doesn't need Haze or UT3 you can just wait and play it on your PC's.
