Just to be clear, L.A. Noire is not the official exclusive Rockstar Project that was announced a while back.

Well, duh. Activision is a publisher interested in milking a franchise's teet until it falls to the ground, weary red with black mush. The decision to farm out Call of Duty to an inferior developer makes sense in the dollars perspective. Unfortunately, this is a big loss for the gamers.

LA Noire started off as a Sony only project but then morphed into a multiplatform title. The reason why there is confusion over the exclusivity is because of the uneven development the game has had. It was built for the PS3 and PS3 exclusive until Rockstar took over. Then Rockstar started the multiplatform development and there was an uneven degree in which the game was made. This is most likely why the game was delayed, to accomondate the 360 and PC version of the game for a simultaneous release opposed to a ps3 exclusive late Q3 08 release and subsequent Q1 09 releases. I'm also guessing the same is true for Haze, even though most Sony fanboys will debate that.

Is there serial content as good as what is found in HL2? Have you seen most console games and their expansions? It's not pretty, and overly costly.

The graphics were actually pretty good, not comparable to higher end Xbox games, but good nonetheless. If there is one thing to complain about, complain about the control/camera issues, which were legion.

PC only wins on Gamespot. If you go by gamerankings it only has 1 AAAE. Xbox 360 is the real gaming platform of the year.007_jamesbond

Interested in my own research, I checked the top exclusive (or, as most of them, timed exclusive) rankings from gamerankings and MC.

360:

Mass Effect: 91.2

Halo 3: 93

Forza Motorsport 2: 90

Crackdown: 83

PC:

Crysis: 91

Supreme Commander: 86

The Witcher: 81

World in Conflict: 89

Out of the Park Baseball 2007: 97

Peggle: 86

World of Warcraft: Burning Crusade: 91

Galactive Civilizations 2: 91

Company of Heroes: opposing fronts: 86

Civilization 4: Beyond the Sword: 86

Football Manager 08: 86

Lord of the Rings Online: 86

Medieval 2: Total War Kingdoms: 85

Enemy Territory: Quake Wars: 84

Europa Universalis 3: 83

Stalker: 82

Thusly, the PC has by far a wider range of exclusive titles accompanying a higher overall score. The real gaming platform of the year is without debate the PC. Consider your ignorance corrected.

My guess is that it will be the PS3, but it will only slightly be outsold by the 360 this year.

It's amazing that the level of artistic accomplishment in SOTC far outweighs the work done by those such as Miyamoto or Bioware in their entire careers. Art is expression, and SOTC, with gameplay flaws, achieves art. Most games don't.

It's not hard to understand that fees for Xbox Live and fees for MMORPGS cannot be covered in the same payment. False hope brought upon by ignorance. Don't make that mistake again.

Anyway, the guaranteedNA exclusive list for PS3 08is as follows:

Metal Gear Solid 4

Hot Shots Golf 5

Killzone 2

Gran Turismo 5: Prologue

Haze

MLB 09

NBA 09

LittleBigPlanet

Games in Japan that may or may not make it over in 2008:

Yakuza 3

White Knight Story

Tekken 6

Other possible games:

Resistance 2 (Insomniac said a Resistance game every 2 years)

Warhawk Expansion

God of War 3, Socom 4, Eight Days, Eyedentify, L.A. Noire, Jak, Motorstorm 2, Both FFXIIIs, Quantic Dream project, Twisted Metal, Heavenly Sword 2, Warhawk 2, Team Ico's next project, WarDevil, and Rockstar's exclusive PS3 project are not going to come out in 2008 anywhere, go ahead and bet the family.
