The PS3 suffers from too many interactive movie games

First MGS4 hit the scene with it's 30 hour cut scenes , then Heavy Rain, and now God Of War 3 will be released. I wish Sony would get the idea out of their head that people like watching games more than playing them.

True but those are excellent games.

3 games from their entire catalog? wheres KZ2, LBP, infamous band uncharted 2?

The 360 suffers from having clones of clones as their big titles.

At least the PS3 offers something newer.

Nothing wrong with that as long as the gameplay is there.

Ah, the awesome "generalization" argument. All of those games are some of the best this gen, so yeah, nice try.

MGS4 has 9 hours of movie and 10 hours of gameplay. 9 + 10 = 19

Halo3 has 3 hours of gameplay + movie. 3 + 0 = 3

.the end.

(just kidding, they're both great) ;)

:lol:

Thanks, I haven't laughed much today.

MGS4 isn't an interactive movie, it's a game with really long cutscenes. The cutscenes aren't interactive and the gameplay is completely separate. Heavy Rain ya it is, but what's wrong with it being different from everything else, there are no other true interactive movies. AND WHAT? GOD OF WAR III AN INTERACTIVE MOVIE?!?!?! BAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! That's the stupidest thing I've heard all day, it's 90% fighting, 9% puzzles, and maybe 1% cutscenes.

So you named 3 games out of an entire catalog? Too many? No. Only one is really. So make it 1 out of hundreds of games.

GoW3 is an interactive movie?

I heard that GOW3 is more gameplay than movie. In fact, I think that I have read that it won't have any movie at all. Of course, I may be wrong and if I am then I'm sorry. Miroku32

The only game you listed that could be construed as an interactive movie is Heavy Rain. The other games have pretty standard gameplay concepts. MGS4 has a ton of options, but they're all carried out in the same manner as any other game.

Cutscenes are normal for games, they progress the story. You don't have to sit through them in MGS4, I haven't since beating it the first time.

I never understood this. If you can control your character, it's a game. Why is this so hard to understand? :|

How is God Of War an "interctive movie." Heavy Rain is the only good example you listed. MGS4 was an action game with Really Long cutscenes. If you're arguing that the PS3 has too many games with Holywood movie level presentation, well, how is that a bad thing?

Too bad those games are good

There's only one interactive movie game, that is Heavy Rain and it bears that label proudly. :)

I'd say the PS3 is flourishing with too many INCREDIBLE games.

The Xbox 360 suffers from too many shooter clones.

Wow first time say a GOW game has long cutscenes, even calling it an interactive movie. There is a first for everything i guess.

I could of swore MGS had about 8-10 hours of gameplay. Also God of War 3 is an Action title. As for Heavy Rain I really doubt you actually played the game TC.

Really, really sad. Just because there are no explosions in a game does not mean it is not good.

God of War III is an interactive movie. Wow. NAPK1NS

The only game that could be considered an interactive movie is Heavy Rain, and I found it fantastic. MGS4 is also a fantastic game that garnered a perfect score here and God of War III looks godly.

If that's suffering then call me a masochist, because I want more.

Nice try but I think you could do better next time. Practice makes perfect

TC needs to...

Anyways, another thread where TC makes an absurd claim and then never even bothers showing back up to defend his claim. How original. :roll:

I thought this was a joke topic, who doesn't love to play interactive movie games?

MGSIV's long cutscenes means it's an interactive movie? I'm not going to even bother with God of War 3, because if it's an interactive movie, every single Action Adventure game is as well.

Look, I hate to sound like a fanboy but the 360 AAAE library is entirely shooters and racers. PS3 has Action adventures, sports, rpgs, sandbox, stealth, shooters.

QTE games belong on the PC and not the console

The 360 has better stealth with Splinter Cell, It has sandbox with GTA 4 , Saints Row and Crackdown. It has the best RPG Mass Effect 2. So you couldn't be more wrong than you are right now.

You suffer from fanboyism. This might be the saddest topic i've seen in a really long time.GiantMuffin
