[QUOTE="mstc_Q"][QUOTE="treelog82"]

Having better communication features doesnt make an online service more "hardcore" :lol:

I know this is SW, but in the real world people are vegin out on PSN just as they are on LIVE. Paying for LIVE does not make a gamer more hardcore and its not as if PSN users arent getting a quality gameplay experience as well. If the money spent on LIVE guaranteed dedicated servers for every game then things would be different, but as things are now, the quality of online play is on even ground.

As for the argument of libraries, once again, even ground. The ratio of harcore games to casual are roughly the same on each. They are like sister consoles and each one edges out the other in different respects, but at the end of the day its about even.

That said, I would look at like this in terms of most hardcore.

PC>>>360=PS3>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Wii

Speaking of Appeal, a free online service is better for a casual core than a paid online service.

There it went.......right over his head. Anyways dude, Im sorry, but when people go to purchase a 360 I doubt theyre actually saying "damn man I gotta get this 360 cause LIVE costs 50 bucks a year and that makes me hardcore!" I know that wasnt my train of thought at least. I wanted it for the games and Im sure others would agree. Both systems aim for the same market so Im really not sure why you even made such a pointless thread. If Sony decides to make PSN $100 a year does that make PSN players twice as hardcore. This thread is silly as is your reasoning.

Another comparrison with no superwhite, or RGB full enabled on the PS3. I wonder if this is GS staff trying to be fanboys, or if they are just ignorant to the settings on the PS3.

Regardless of that, most of those games do indeed look better on the 360, but not to the extremes that these comparisons show.

its really a tie for me.. you got asscreed, theres a reason i just wrote *** and on the right side you got the game that was hyped like hell, GTA4iamshivy
Ass Creed would have been my pick as well, but Im pretty sure it was an 07 game. I could be wrong though.

MGS4s story.

[spoilers]As a long time fan of the series I was very disapointed. Between the retconning of both plot points and character backgrounds, the way they tried explaining everything with nanomachines (even though they didnt explain in any depth the questions hardcore fans actually had), the needless death of characters along with the needless resurection of others, the way they Ruined Raiden and put a damper on Solid Snake as a character, needless interconnections like Madnar, Dr. Clarke = Para Medic, Sigint = Darpa Chief, Zero fighting for years to achieve The Bosses will even though he didnt actually give a damn about her, giving Johny more than a comical role, the wedding, the whole melodramadic emo feel of the game, the over cheesy moments even by MGS standards, and then the huge plot hole that basically made the entire game pointless...god I could really go on forever.[/spoilers]

I waited years for a finale just to get pimp slapped by Kojima. So yeah this is my disapointment of 08. Still my personal GOTY, but disapointing none the less.

And contrary to popular belief on these message boards, no, MGS4 was not a game for the fans. It was the exact opposite. If I didnt have knowledge of the previous stories MGS4 would have been much, much better to me. Thats why all the newcomers love MGS4 and claim it to be the best game of all time along with all the guys who played the other titles casualy. As for the hardcore fans that know the story inside out and have played each title over and over again, we got left out in the cold on this one.

trust me, jaffe really....realy really... REALLY doesnt care about your opinion, or any of ours for that matter haha

And I dont care about his opinions either. As long as he keeps making decent games thats all I care about. Other than that hes just an over opinionated, loud mouth, overgrown child. Thats cool with me though. Having a childish mindset is probably a good quality to have when designing new ideas for games.

Oh you care. You know you do :lol:

You're so right...the truth hurts!:cry:

Nah hes just a game designer. His opinion carries no more weight to me than any other gamer. Just like Itagaki. Imo he crafted the ultimate action game of all time NGB. Doesnt mean he isnt a douche bag self centered fanboy. Same goes for Cliffy B.

Stomps N64 down the ground. Its not even a contest if you're a: JRPG, Fighters or Action Fan.

Toshinden and Saga Frontier were trash. Some of the other games on that list where just meh. I hold both systems in the same regard.....maybe with the PS1 edging out the N64 for me simply because I love the old Jrpgs and Im an MGS fanatic. But in reality PS1 doesnt stomp N64 down to the ground. Both of them had roughly the same amount of absolutley amazing titles. If anything the N64 did more to push 3d gaming forward than the PS1 did.



Toshinden was great at its time. It was one of the first 3-D fighters in PS (1995). The sequels were bad though and the series was quickly overshadowed by other 3-D fighters. Saga frontier was a love it/hate it game so i can't blame you if you hate it. And you're right. N64 pushed more for consoles (analog and 3-D platformers) but games-wise PS trumped it.

Yeah I just wasnt down with Toshinden. I remember playing on Kiosks at KB toys back before I got a PS1 and then I got it as christmas present later on. I really didnt like it at all. I guess calling Saga Frontier trash might be overdoing it, but with all the great Jrpgs during the SNES and PS1 eras I just couldnt get into it. I guess the PS had the 64 beat in the amount of good games, but when it comes down to the console defining titles they each have pure gold.
