[QUOTE="xxThyLordxx"][QUOTE="Binski"]After seeing that list I really give up trying to convincing people not purchase a PS3 this year. That list speaks for itself, Maybe 2008 purchase but not worth it this year.iwo4life



Xbox 360 is worth it? what game makes Xbox 360 a worthy purchase. nothing, just gears of war.

Over half of the games on that list are going to be on the 360. A large portion of them out sooner, and some of those already well played.

I'm being completely honest saying that I thought someone posted a list of 360 games as a trick at first.

Oh and since you asked, games that make a 360 worth it, off the top of my head: (I'm only listing games currently out.)

Gears

Viva Pinata

Graw

CoD2

Cod3*

Dead Rising

Lost Planet

RSV

Crackdown

Oblivion

Fight Night*

Prey

Saints Row

LOTR: Battle for Middle Earth

Splinter Cell DA

Marvel Ultimate Alliance*

Dead or Alive

F.E.A.R.

Chromehounds

Burnout Revenge

PD0

Kameo

What makes that list so much better than the PS3 list other than Gears. Half of those games are also on PS3 or are over hyped flops. Give me a break.

I put * next to the games you can play on your PS3 right now.  Since we're on gamespot, I'll let you call the games flops, although the majority are not, they're still good games.

NPD numbers are out tomorrow.  How many more units does PS3 have to sell than 360 for ownage in your opinion?

1 more?

10,000 more?

100,000 more?

It's the fact of if the PS3 does outself the 360 in any way, that is concidered ownage. At least that's what people are saying.

Let's say the PS3 sells 10,000 more than the 360.  If that continued to be the case, the PS3 wouldn't catch up with the 360 install base until well after next generation.

We all know that won't happy any time soon. But it's the fact that fanboys or Lemmings alike claim that with the price tag that the PS3 has, it wouldn't stand a chance of outselling the 360. If this does happen....well you get the idea...

The thing is, and this is coming from someone who's a huge 360 supporter, I suspect that the PS3 will sell as well as the 360, maybe around 50,00 more or less for a while until either platform has a huge stand out title.

Can't cry ownage for at least another year. We need to see how the next gen consoles fair after a year of them all launching.Ibacai

I think this is the most logical assuming there isn't a huge gap, 200,000 plus units or so.

do sales matter that much?xxThyLordxx

Sales end up translating towards everything in the end.  PS2 was hard to program for and weakest graphically last generation.  It still ended up the winner because a higher install base brought more games.

Here are the leaked Figures

431,550 - Wii
389,901 - Nintendo DS
288,636 - PlayStation 3
253,456 - PlayStation 2
217,670 - Xbox 360
164,342 - PlayStation Portable
146,667 - Game Boy Advance
28,954 - GameCube
1,099 - Xbox

MasterChumly

Those are not the real numbers they confirmed to be fake.

They were not confirmed fake at all even though they could be.  They came from a guy who has posted information in the past like this.  So they COULD be possible true/close.  They were leaked pre numbers but NPD had to finalize the numbers thats why it got delayed. 

If those are accurate numbers, I don't see the PS3 catching up to the 360 anytime soon.

Well, SSBM is an early GC game, i'm sure the GC could pull out something very close to SSBB.

p3anut


and thats the way you are suppose to compare it. 1st gen games to 1st gen games, what do you think the wii games are going to look at the end of it's lifetime? im sure it will be better than RE4 and xbox games.

The problem is, people are saying the Wii is a gamecube in a different shell.  If that were true, Wii's 1st gen would actually be equal to later gen gamecube games.

(PS: Clearly the Wii isn't exactly a GC, but the Wii was left in the dust graphically by the other systems.)
