i think its mostly bad marketing coupled with the fact that japan doesn't see that the 360 is different than the original xbox, hopefully over time with Lost Odyssey, Cry on, Infinite undiscovery, and Magna Carta 2 they will see 360 is a nice choice.

anyway, the 360 is doing better than the original xbox since no original xbox game that i know of has sold 200,000 copies in japan(i am talking about blue dragon).

Please don't tell me you're actually interested in Viva Pinata: Party Animals and Scene It. Please don't tell me that's the case.

If I'm not going to act like Lair and Heavenly Sword are going to be GotY genre breakthroughs, please don't act like trash such as Scene it and VP: PA (not dev'd by Rare BTW) are going to make it anywhere. And the IGN Blue Dragon review just about killed the game for me, even if Sakaguchi does have some magic left. LO has a chance to be extremely good, and the guy still comes from an excellent pedigree.

Naruto....okay, put it this way: if it was on PS3, I would ignore it, I wouldn't care how good it was. Stick to the shooters, dude, they're mostly good on the Xbox 360.

ummm... no i think viva pinata and scene are going to suck just like i think singstar is going to suck on the ps3 when its released doesnt matter it shows variety.

BTW you dint mention world in conflict, eternal sonata, PGR4, Ace combat six,and mass effect? thats at least5-6 games that you think are pretty good which is more than enough to say the 360 has something for everyone. I was trying to kill the perception that 360 only has shooters if that list isnt good enough for you than nothing is good enough for you.

I mean i am not saying you have to like every game but i am sure anyone who isn't a shooter fan can find at least 2-4 games that are interesting. For me i want all four rpgs(mass effect, blue dragon, eternal sonata, and lost odyssey) and ace combat six thats more than enough for my non-shooter side.

[QUOTE="therealmcc0y"]idc PS3 owns 08 so w/e, and its not like im not gonna have no gamesto play 4 me PS3 this year, i'll be buying Warhawk, Haze, COD4, BiA: HH, and maybe unchartedgoodlay

I love how people say SONY OWNZ 08, just because of metal gear and FF. Time travel is fun isn't it?

does no one else remember how cows said last year they owned 07 with MGS4? kinda funny how that turned out, dint learn their lesson.

Lair? Warhawk? Heavenly Sword? the PS3 price drop?

Even I started to believe a little bit of the hype, but as it turns out, the PS3 still cant even pass the 360 in monthly NA sales (which doesnt bode well when considering Halo 3 is coming out in Sept, and the the 360 is getting a price drop of its own) but worst of all, PS3's exclusives are flopping left right and center. What's more, the Wii is absolutley freakin crushing everything in sight.

The 360 and the Wii are getting big games this Christmas that are gauranteed to deliver huge sales (Halo 3, Bioshock, Mass Effect, Galaxy, Brawl, MP3) and big scores. I don't think it's wise to put the same faith in Sony's offerings at this point.

Just like Sony though.... overhyping and under-delivering....

as usual.

Call me strange, but those games you mentioned didn't excite me in the slightest. Maybe because I dont like shooters much and I lost faith in Ninkiddy back in the N64 disaster. Sorry Fanboyee!

mass effect

ace combat six

naruto rise of a ninja
