Hardly. MGS4 won't single-handedly take down the 360.

And besides, the 360 has games of its own. Blue Dragon, Bioshock, Mass Effect, Halo 3,Command and Conquer 3, Two Worlds and Fable 2 just to name a few. It's not like the 360 has ZERO good games coming out.

which are all PC mutiplats... just to name a few :lol:

So what if they are PC multiplats? I can still play them on my 360 can't I? :|

I was never one for the whole PC is better than console arguement, because while the PC has benefits it still dosen't outweigh sitting on my comfy couch in front of a 60 inch tv, popping in a disc and just goofing around. Sometimes PC gaming asks me for too much.

Nice crystal ball.

Thread fails

wait but teh halo 3 thread delivered? MGS 4 > halo 3

aww what a cute little cow, weren't you aware DMC4 would never sell as many titles as Halo 3? Hell I doubt the entire DMC series could sell as many copies as Halo 3...it's too main stream, halo is the ipod of the gaming world. (wii too)

Well just look at the last generation. The XBOX was by far the superior console (power wise) but never stood a chance in the console war because of the huge headstart the PS2 got on it.

oh and DMC, GT5, GoW3, FF

sony will win the console wars like they have for the last 10 years

l1mIt
capcom, squeenix, and Konami (kojima) have no exclusive love for the ps3. capcom is bringing over re5 to 360...whats to stop a 360dmc? Squareenix is in business to sell games to the most people...how else wuld you explain DQIX being made on ds as a next true game?...they want to put the game into as many gamers' hands as possible!...and that would mean square will make games for the largest installed base of the consoles...the 360 MGS4 seems the same...except for MGS3, all ps2 metal gears were sent to the xbox, so..logic dicates that konami might send MGS4 to 360. however, i agree that gt5 and gow3 will sell systems

Metal Gear Solid is not a system-seller.

GTA, however, is. Care to remind us who else is getting in on that action?

ummm.... GoW3 isn't even announced, but if you want to play it that way then Sony will see a Game over when Halo 3, GeoW2, Mass Effect, and Blue Dragon are released.

Of course, both Microsoft and Sony will see game over when Super Mario Galaxy, Metroid Prime 3: Corruption, and Super Smash Bros. Brawl release.

So what your saying is I should wait 5 years and use the time to save up 250 bucks, then get a PS3...? Or what are you saying here, because compared to how much you spend on other things every month... 50 bucks a year is a freakin' steal...

But they aren't on PS3, are they?  Meaning my arguement is still valid.

but they are mutiplats arent they? id rather play them on PC than a console = xbox1.5 just lost a sale

We're discussing the 360 and the PS3, not the PC.

what? PC has no place in SW? :lol: its involved in everything

PCs have a place in SW, but not in a PS3 vs. 360 argument.

We're talking about 360 and PS3 exclusives.  The PC doesn't come into the eqeuation.  The games that are 360/PC aren't on the PS3, meaning that the 360 having those games is an advantage.  Trying to change the topic may work on others, but not me.

You won't play them on either as we both know, so no sale has been lost. Exactly when do you think Halo 3 is coming to the PC? At the end of the gen? That is not exactly a big blow to 360 sales, how many casuals debating which system to choose will say to themselves, "well I like Halo, and I see it here at Best Buy, but you know what? I'm going to buy a PS3 instead, and wait 3 years for Halo 3 to come out on my PC that isn't powerful enough to play it." Nevermind the fact that only people who hang out at sites like this even KNOW that it will hit the PC eventually.

So....... PS3 will have some good games... and that will cause Microsoft to go bankrupt and shut down...... I'm not one to be skeptical, but I'm pretty sure you Sir, are full of it.

I've explained this before. The reason Halo beats out DMC and MGS in terms of "system-sellers" is because of Halo's replayability. Not only can you play through the campaign together, but you can compete against one another online. Let me put it in perspective. The release of Gears finally put an end the Halo 2's reign over XBL. Imagine what Halo 3 will do... That, my friends, is a system seller... (How many of you are still playing DMC or MSG on a daily basis with countless others in a huge online community? ---perspective)

I agree... that's another reason why the 360 is a better value... because the excellent Live service greatly expands the lifespan of many of it's online titles. Long after people have beaten and traded in DMC and MGS4, people will be playing Halo 3 online till the break o' dawn.

value? xbox live costs an extra $250 over 5 years.

So?  XBL is well worth the price.  Think of it as paying for a game you'd play for an entire year.  Geez, no one had a problem with XBL until they found out the PS3 online was free, and it's not even as good as XBL.

Nevermind the fact that only people who hang out at sites like this even KNOW that it will hit the PC eventually.

Half the people here don't have PCs powerful enough to run games like that.  They just like to bash on the 360.

Hardly. MGS4 won't single-handedly take down the 360.

And besides, the 360 has games of its own. Blue Dragon, Bioshock, Mass Effect, Halo 3,Command and Conquer 3, Two Worlds and Fable 2 just to name a few. It's not like the 360 has ZERO good games coming out.

which are all PC mutiplats... just to name a few :lol:

Cows need to stop hiding behind the PC.

They're just jealous because they're not getting to play those games... And IF Halo 3 and Fable 2 go to the PC, it won't be for a long time...

I just think it's hilarious that this TC (a cow) created an x360 vs PS3 thread and then brought the PC into the debate. :lol: Cows need to stop hiding behind the PC and let the PS3 stand on its own.

Having played all the systems, I'd say that the PS3 and Wii have the most value. MS' 360 is too last gen and hollow in its gaming capabilities (no motion sensing??). Besides the problem with 360 is that they are TOO focused on online gaming and forgoing the biggest chunk which wants to have a great single-player adventure. This is why you'll see so many shooters continue on the 360, because FPS is a great thing for online gaming. As far as RPGs or anything else, it has been so mediocre, and unsatisfying, it's not appealing to many people. The point is... you can't just HAVE variety. You're going to need a hook, something to snag people in and keep coming. That's why there's so many sequels of Mario. If I were MS about 7 years ago, I would've invested in about 10 heavily funded franchises spanning new and old genres of gaming. Sony got it. Nintendo's had it for years. MS is going to need more than Halo to win anything. Especially if the overly-funded Killzone blows away any minds, that'll be a harsh blow. I think MS took it too technical and by the books. Without some real substance or philosophy behind these consoles, they are doomed to fail. What was Dreamcast, what did it want to do for gamers? You can't JUST make a system, you need something to snag them. You don't play by the rules, you break them and make new ones, or you are doomed to fail. And that's why I play my PS3 everyday, along with my Wii every other day. Both are great consoles. But paying for online after shoveling out $400, is not my style. I'd rather bite the bullet and pay up upfront for great entertainment, instead of having to buy a burger a McDonalds and run to the toilet 20 minutes later because that's how long 360 games last to me. Those are my thoughts.

Based on what info will the PS3 version be better? The fanboism is strong in this one.

I scratch my head when I see "xbox 1.5". What does that even mean? Maybe it's fanboy talk, and that's why it doesn't register. I don't speak "idiot".

Sorry Ps3 had its chance it can't compete The 360 line up for 07 is to good for those rehash games to do anything Nugtoka
lmao! There's a problem with your statement Fanboy. There are a lot of new franchises coming for the 360, but that's also a problem. You have no idea whether or not it's going to be as good as people say. Hype is a strong thing. With the so called "rehashes" you speak of, you know you're getting quality titles and PS3 will of course have it's share of new unproven franchises, but with Sony's track record, they will likely be good. Oh, one more thing. That is your opinion, so don't play it off like it's fact.

You may in fact do that (...naw, you won't) but that would be YOU, not the majority of people, and only after a looooong while, long after the system war has already been decided. This is irrelevant not because there won't be a time where can buy a PC version of Halo 3, but because it won't affect the system war which is, in case you forgot, WHAT THIS THREAD IS ABOUT!

Care to provide solid proof of this? The 360 version is getting exclusive downloadable content and both consoles have 512MB of memory--and the scene has to be in memory for it to be playable.

If fanboys could prove their claims then... then... oh hell can't complete that statement. The claims can't be proven BECAUSE it comes from a Fanboy.

How do you know?

Last time I checked the Xbox 360 version was getting exclusive downloadable content in the future.

Looks like you just pulled that out of your ass. :|

If fanboys could prove their claims then they're not fanboys. I believe that sums it up.
