when you could just get a ps3? Even if you hate the games it has (you must not be human) it still has been proven to be the best and one of the cheapest blu ray player available. Plus (imagining that you didn't get it for games) it can still b used to download and watch movies and shows, watch sites like hulu and youtube on your tv and you can store images, music, photos ect on it or steam them from your pc.

WHY WOULD ANYONE WHAT A STAND ALONE BLU RAY PLAYER

PrinceofSarcasm

why would anyone want a standard dvd player instead of ps2? it's because there are more movie watchers than gamers and they don't want a ps2.......2ndly, the price

[QUOTE="ejstrup"]I'm not surprised. Gears is a very popular franchiseNinja-Hippo

i mean its just a sequel to the first, since 2 days ago its been a 2 game franchise.

i mean hell diddnt MGS4 sell 1.5 mill the first day? and thats is a much larger franchise.

2.1 impressive

21 million 360s vs 18million PS3s that's why it sold slightly more than MGS4.

Eh? The 360 was at 20 million over a year ago. Are you saying it's old 1 million worldwide in all this time? I think it's more like 30 million about now.

don't listen to hitman, he thinks PDZ is A in gamerankings and RFOM 2 is AAA in gamerankings :)) i don't think he understands number system

9.5 > 9.0

Resistance is the text book deffintion of mediocre FPS. Halo series craps all over it.

yeah a lot of mediocre games get AAA over here :|

PDZ 70% at GR Resistance 2 90% you fail... PDZ is just one of many 360 overated games.

both PDZ and resistance 2 are both AA in gamerankings, you're an EPIC fail

when a customer walks into a electronic store, they don't buy a system based on gamespot reviews therefore you can't not make a fanboy statement like, "the best gaming lineups of this generations." only way it will come EVEN close to best lineup, you have to stand behind a PC :)

2nd. ps3 had so many config of ps3 in its first year hoping to sell systems which is a "holding on to its life support"

you are totally forgetting these FACTS

1. sony is still losing money on ps3

2. sony is in 13 billion dollars in debt

3. LBP was a huge sale flop in japan

4. xbox 360 >>>>>> ps3 when it comes to games AA and above (almost 2 to 1)

5. 360 outsold ps3 in japan for 2 months

6. 360 outsold ps3 in US for many months this year

7. not all games support trophies

8. ps3 had only flops esclusives after MGS4 was relesed to release of LBP

9. it's proven that more people buy games on 360 than ps3 (EA report , fallout, etc etc)

10. demon's soul and Quantum theory have no release date

11. "" PS3 has been having an amazing year 360 not so much" that statement is only true for a fanboy. Sales what matters to the companies

12. even with MGS4 out this year, ps3 managed to outsell xbox 360 by 200,000

When a customer goes into a store they see Xbox 360 and think RROD. Sony looses money on PS3: how does that effect it's awesome game lineup? Sony is 13 billion in debt: Microsoft is $40 billion in debt. Not many western games are big in Japan. Trying to claim ownage on AA games? :lol: PS3 overall has outsold the Xbox 360 in Japan 400k+ more units. PS3 overall is more then 1.5 million ahead of the Xbox for year. Trophies will be standard in all games starting next year. Xbox 360 has only had one AAAE this year. Some PS3 games sell better then the ones released on 360.(PES 2009) Demon's Soul and Quantom Theory are 2009 titles. My statement is this truth I just call it like I see. And your right sales are what matters to the companies and PS3 has been outselling 360 all year long and will continue to do so. Like I said before PS3 has sold more then 15 million more units of hardware this year then the Xbox 360.

please, get your facts straight, sony is worth $30 billion with 12 in debt, microsoft is worth 170+ billion with 2 billion in debt.

by your logic people don't enjoy games AA and lower? and the fact is, xbox 360 has 7 AAAE :) can't deny that.

1.5 million? give me proof :) pes 2008 for ps3 had lag problem and framerate problem, i should know.

15 million more unite this year? LOL talk about being a lost fanboy

[QUOTE="opex07"]

[QUOTE="aflakian"]GRAW wasn't exclusive.

According to GameSpot...
AAAE titles for X360 are:

Halo 3
Gears of War 2
Forza Motorsport 2
Perfect Dark Zero

That's four.aflakian

GRAW is exclusive please refer to the official AA and up rated thread, spreadsheet

same name, different game

graw pc = 1st person

graw 360 = 3rd person

@meronge, I think unfortunately you are a fanboy because none of those are FACTS.360 outsold PS3 for 1 month in Japan as well. Dide you see where the numbers are now? LOL@YOU!!SonyMarksman70

FACT it's 7 weeks 7weeks

7 weeks =/= month

[QUOTE="jakarai"][QUOTE="FirstDiscovery"][QUOTE="Chutebox"]

[QUOTE="FirstDiscovery"]360 has had a fantastic year, what you talking about:|FirstDiscovery

Not really. Unless I'm forgetting about some games, it's really only picked up at the end of the year.

Nope PS3 has been getting steady releases of amazing titles all year long.

and nothing between MGS to LBP

his logic is an epic failure

[QUOTE="opex07"]Is the thread title suppose to be saying that the 360 has only three AAAE's over its lifetime, because the 360 has 5 AAAE currently.SonyMarksman70

forza 2

halo 3

gears of war 2

Crazy how things hav changed in the past year. PS3 went from being the underdog to gaining all the momentum. Just last year you had tons of people saying how the PS3 is a failure, will this be Sony's last console, etc... Now the tables have turned and PS3 went from having no AAAE games to one of the best if not the best gaming lineups of this generation.

PS3 has been slowly gainging ground on the Xbox 360. First it was Blu Rays Victory. Then there was the highly acclaimed release of Metal Gear Solid 4 which was released in June which is on it's way to the 5 million mark. Then there came LittleBigPlanet and now here we are with Resistance 2. Sony gave us in game XMB, trophies and will soon launch Home next month. PS3 has continued to outsell the Xbox 360 on a monthly basis throughout this entire year. We got new game announcements in Demon's Soul and Quantum Theory.

PS3 has been having an amazing year 360 not so much. Microsoft had to announce not one but TWO price drops this year just to keep the 360 on life support. Microsoft Game Studios also Bungie and Bioware leaving their first and second party studios very thin. They have also announced they will also shut down Ensemble Studios next year. Sony continues to grow and exspand on the market. Now that the two are basically on the same playing field it seems people counted their chickens before they hatched. PS3 is the future.With GT 5, Heavy Rain, and God of War on the rise now is a great time to be a PS3 gamer. :D
