Last-Gen Console Discussions (PS3, Xbox 360, Wii)

Started by AstroFan507 pages

Im excited about Home, and when ever Metal Gear and Killzone finally make it out, ill play them. For now though, its all about my movies. 😛

MGS4, now that will be the best exclusive they have, I won't be surprised if XBOX gets it later, as for Killzone a blatant yet not as good ripoff of Halo, invisible walls, pathetic A.I not even using the real engine or game play at firs showing, poor Sony, very poor.

I never played the first Killzone, but ill check this one out, the setting looks very cool. I prefer the dirty grimy setting to Halo's super clean future.

Sony caused the PS3 downfall, that and the PS3 is bad, I never said it was bad at movies, but If I want to watch beautiful movies I will buy a HDTV and DVD player, oh already have, I want a games console that plays games.
Umm....it does play games. ermm

anata wa wakarimasu ka.....

But the games seem almost an afterthought.

Seriously, I had Game Design class yesterday and someone brought in his PS3 to show Ninja Gaiden Sigma and Eye of Judgment. But he spent more time showing off all the multimedia stuff the glorified grill could do than both games combined, and Ninja Gaiden included the entire final chapter.

Killzone 1 sucked and Killzone PSP sucked...so following the pattern I would say that they better make Killzone 2 good because Sony has been trying to hype up that game for two years now.

I say the hype stopped when they actually showed footage.

Nothing special in my opinion and definitely not up to the standards of the supposed "actual game footage"....aka...."game trailer."

Game Trailer: Nice and shiny.

Actual Game Footage: Dark and Grungy.

Blue Dragon seemed to do a pretty good job in Japan so throw in Final Fantasy (which is like the biggest game series in Japan) and the 360 would get a huge boost in sales over there.

It's amazing that not too long ago Sony was top dog with the PS and PS2 dominating the console wars and getting all the best games out there while Microsoft and Nintendo struggled to even match half of Sony's sales (in terms of the console market). Then Sony stated they were going to take Nintendo out of the handheld market with the release of the PSP and now two years (or so) later the DS has become the fastest selling handheld system while the PSP can't seem to get any great games.

So it seemed that with the PSP losing to the DS Sony seemed to put all their effort into the PS3. Microsoft was worried (you can tell considering they rushed the 360 just to get it out Christmas of 06 with some many faults in the system) and Nintendo was checking out how the DS was going (if the DS failed Nintendo stated they would have changed the Wii completely).

Suddenly the PS3 came out and it is losing all its exclusive games left and right to Microsoft while all the third-party developers are now making exclusive games for the Wii. Sony is now at the bottom of the ladder with the next-gen consoles while Nintendo is now on top with the Wii. [b]I hope you die Sony! Serves you right for killing the Dreamcast!!!! 😠 [/B]

For awhile, I was avid Nintendo and PC fanboy but I realized that its good to have many consoles.

holy crap!!
just saw a vid on youtube...the vid isnt important, but the way the person filmed it was awesome!
he somehow connected his wii to his laptop and used a capture program (possibly fraps) to film it..
imagine it..
a SSBB machinima 😂

Killzone is a bad game.

U.S. sales of video game hardware and software jumped 73 percent in October, with Nintendo Co Ltd's (7974.OS) Wii console regaining its spot as the top-selling console, industry data showed on Thursday.

Total sales were $1.1 billion, compared with $643 million a year earlier...

Nintendo sold 519,000 Wiis while Microsoft Corp (MSFT.O) sold 366,000 Xbox 360 consoles and Sony Corp (6758.T) sold 121,000 of its PlayStation 3 machines.

Nintendo still remains top...kinda weird since gamecube flopped
But I guess Nintendo learned their lesson

Kind of ironic, don't ya think, the Nintendo was doing very bad, and the Playstation was on top, well now the tables have turned.

I wouldn't call it ironic...I would call it justice.

xbox 360 is also doing well too
With all the upcoming games it has, I am sure Xbox 360 will out sell playstation 3 into the new year

That to.

That's not saying much. Sony needs to get some games out that will make people want to buy the PS3.

I think the XBOX is a better console, nobody wants to buy a PS3 now, it may be too late, Either way I am sticking with my Box and Wii.

I think it would be appropriate to mention now that my 360 should be here tomorrow.

Does that mean I've become a Wii60 supporter? 😛

Well I like both Nintendo and Microsoft too and I hate Sony (they destroyed the Dreamcast!).

Yes, what XBOX version good sir, Core, Premium or Elite?
