The ps3 is overhyped around here

Sony consoles are always overhyped, something which I learned a loooooong time ago. Sure 360 and Wii aren't that great, but ps3 doesn't have anything radically superior over them either.

[QUOTE="ermacness"]

this thread is full of lols!!!!!!!!

To everyone who says that sony going blu-ray was a bad idea, fail to realize these 2 major things:

1. Blu-ray was actually losing to HD-DVD up until the ps3 came out. After the ps3 came out, HD-DVD sales got trampled by blu-ray sales almost every month, even when Transformers came out exclusively to HD-DVD, it still got outsold by blu-ray sales. So in essence, the ps3 having a blu-ray player in it helped the sony format from seeing another pitiful death like Betamax, UMD, and mimi cd's.

2 I can pull up plenty of dev stating that sony did the right thing by incorporating the blu-ray format this gen. In fact, many dev praised the 360 for being so powerful and easy to develope on, but also bashed m$ for keeping the dvd-9 format this gen. Sony went the right direction with the blu-ray format, they just executed the idea very poorly.

Killzone 2 required blu ray for the space. MGS4 needed it. FF13 is going to need it. You realize that KZ2 and MGS4 are both AAA titles.

Also the sucess of the wii is because it started cheap and became popular through publicity.

Games these days are getting bigger and bigger. Rage, Id Software's game, requires a ton of space (sorry i dont know source, but i heard that it might require more disks for 360, I HEARD).

Yet it was G4's game of the show and along with Mass Effect 2, were E3's top 2 games. Based on nothing more but beta's & video gameplays/trailers.

Uncharted 2 is not out yet fail.

Only to you :roll:

im going to have to disagree....i think xbox 360, the games, and xbox live is overhyped

That's actually a pretty good analogy. It's last in sales, the graphics are good, but not the greatest, and it has the smallest game lineup with the fewest good titles...-GeordiLaForge-

^^^ Meet the next Obamian :roll:

Everything gets overhyped but yeah I do notice everything about the PS3 get overhyped the most, maybe because there's just more PS3 fanboys here in System Wars? It was fun at first but I think this place would be more fun if it was more even.

Ok then

At least Halo 3 was one of the best selling games of all time.

I also find hard to beilive that you don't care that sony is loseing 40$ on every ps3

http://www.joystiq.com/2009/05/15/report-sony-losing-about-40-on-each-ps3/

The ps3 also have a weaker gpu that the 360also less ram to work with.

You mean Uncharted 2 might actually have more then 6 hours of gameplay? It's amazing that it takes the devs more then 1 try to make a game playable...

AlphaGamer469

Uncharted was a mess and major waste. Smattering on a cheesey multiplayer element just makes it twice the joke of the 1st one...

Your credibility = out the window.

Looks like someone hasn't bothered to read the thread

AlphaGamer469

Did you read the rest of my post? It's motsly in response to the thread starter's post.

It is System Wars. 360 fanboys are trying to rally and bring the PS3's popularitydown in these forums.

Newsflash Jr, there is nothing to rally from. The PS3 is losing ground and all you cows have is a bunch of review scores and overhype to cling to...

LOL!

Calling me Junior? I'm probably older than you bud.

Just checking back on threads I was reading this morning. No other reason.

I completely agree. I feel like some people are just trying too hard to convince people to get a PS3 and some of those games like Uncharted 2. I don't know what it is. Insecurity? The first uncharted wasn't that great. Seems mediocre. There is no it game for PS3 except MGS 4 and that game is old news. I'm not gonna get a PS3 for just one game that I already beat at a friend's house.

I agree that the PS3 is overhyped, but that doesn't stop it from having good games to talk about.

BioShockOwnz

Agreed. There are very good games. But it is way overhyped.

If PS3 is overhyped around here than I seriously don't know what 360 would be.

360 hasn't had a game worth playing since Gears of War 2, which is a game you all thought would be saving grace in 2008. What are you guys looking forward to this year? Forza 3? Yeah, because every xbox fan likes racing games, right :|

Sony's recent respect should be well-earned... I mean considering they're the ones pumping out the most quality games these days.

Sure is butthurt lemmings in here.

STRETCH-E

LOL wow ur still talking about haze and lair, do you even remember when those games were released? Look at the last few exclusives that were released on the ps3: Infamous, killzone 2, resistance 2, mgs4, lbp.

[QUOTE="___gamemaster__"]

[QUOTE="siLVURcross"]I could say the same about the 360. What's so great about 360 exclusives?BioShockOwnz

maybe ninja blade and ochinbara whatever? :lol: seriously yeah maybe it gotten too overhype but can we blame them? PS3 is on a roll since MGS4.

Poking fun at an A game? Hmm, same score as R&C: ToD. So how are Haze and Lair? I can use 2 examples, too. And neither is an A game.

Oh my poor lemmings ............

Since 2006 you guys kept bashing PS3 for having no games, no exclusive and blablabla .........

Now PS3 have very good exclusive games and very interesting future games you guys bashing PS3 again for being overrated, not worth playing and other blablabla ..............

ARE YOU GUYS GET BUTTHURT or something ?

[QUOTE="STRETCH-E"]

Sure is butthurt lemmings in here.

clone01

Well actually dude all the games u bashed WILL be system sellers .

If u ask me dude 360 isnt a true next gen system i mean when it came out at the time yea it did look next gen but last year when i got mi 360 it was not what i though it was i mean how the hell can u call a next gen system next gen when its system has batteries Frickin aa batteries for its controller do know how much people spent on batteries for the controllersthats last gen then it runs on a format that will limit its game very badly was the years role by !!?! then there nothing new about it only thing i found good about it was o better graphics.......yea...thats all and ive plated halo 3 and ive killzone......killzone by far outclasses halo looks feels rushed dude killzone 2 is feels new and so much more fun . i belive that 360 was rushed and cheaply made and dude ...most of 360 games are third party game which ps3 has and as well as nintendo wii last time i check ps3 has way more exclusive then 360 that are quality games if u would just take ur head out ur butt and go try one out at gamestop ull c other sides b4 u place judgement on something see what the other side is about then compare then u get ur result in which system is better........but ps3 is rlly overhyped now not gonna lie lmfao:lol:

I could say the same about the 360. What's so great about 360 exclusives?siLVURcross

Overhyped doesn't mean they're not good, and compared to 360 there's much more quality titles.

If anything 360 is hyped more even though the majority of it is PC/360.

Yeah I agree. PS3 way overhyped and overpriced. Not worth it for just one good game ....MGS 4. I'll stick with Xbox 360.
