Only 2 of those games are worth mentioning. Resistance is a solid fps, does nothing new, while Heavenly Sword is a good game but not even close to what God of War did for the PS2. Those other games you mentioned are lackluster.

PS3 just sucks all around. Bad games, frame rate issues and there are rumors that it's a lot more difficult to program for than the xbox.

I bought an xbox 360 last month and couldnt be happier.

Soon it will have a whole slew of awesome games, both exclusive and non, coming out in the next six months.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Playstation_3_games

All that + 60 gigs of space + backwards compatability + best BluRay (dominant media format) + awesome online = X-Box is craptastic.

I can see buying a Wii as it is an entirely different style of gaming, but anyone who knows anything about games knows that Playstation is where its at.

Unless you have to have your Halo.

The idea that the Playstation 3 = sucks comes only from people who didn't realize that no games for ANY system were coming out quick at all.
360 has many games coming...NG2, DMC4, GTA4, Mass effect, assassin's creed, too human, alan wake, UT3, GeOW2, COD4, Halo wars, Lost oddysey, do I need to go on. Playstation's 2008 looks great, but the fact remains 360 and the wii are destroying it in sales and I don't think Killzone, MGS, LBP, GT4, and FFXIII will move 6 million units. 360's lead will grow more till sony's heavy hitters start coming. Bluray dominate format, in what? potential, sales, or future? Anyone who knows games knows 360 has games right now, PS3 will someday. Oh did I mention 360 also just got a price cut...sony better start moving or the GBA will out sell it

by 2008 ps3 price will be even more affordable than now.

ps3 also got a price cut this week in USA and Europe. amazon's this week sales for PS3 has gone up by 908%, that is huge.

world wide sales ps3 will come out on top but in USA it will take some time for SOny to catch up to the 360.

FFXIII alone will move at least close to a million units of PS3 in Japan. thats not even counting MGS.

Obviously people would buy X-Box for it.

Not really that big of a deal. Playstation 3 will bounce back. It is the superior system and the superior brand.
PS3 has never once out sold Xbox 360.

3 exclusives?

http://www.gamingtarget.com/article.php?artid=7064

Xbox 360 has 90 exclusives released and unrealsed. PS3 only has 44



Xbox 360 has as many exclusives out right now, as sony will by the end of 2009. That list is also as of MAY. Since then Xbox 360 has added 5 more exclusives, and Sony has added 0.

Sony continues to sell no hardware. They continue to have no games. There online continues to be a fucking joke. All of there games are getting delayed. The PS3 is a gigantic fucking disgrace.

Xbox 360 is better then the PS3 in every single category of gaming. Period. The PS3 is a good machine, but has nothing but a handful of titles even worth picking up. Hell in the last 3 months Xbox 360 has had 4 games that have gotten 10's and 9's. PS3 has had ONE game in it's entire existence with those scores.

This isn't about being a FANBOY. It's about being realistic. You simply are not. Anyone who can sit there and say PS3 is better then Xbox 360 right now, needs to take the fat dick out of there ass.

Also, don't use the excuse "well Xbox 360 at this time had no good games". Well maybe not. However thats why they released the console early. It's called a business strategy. Stop living in the past. Take a look at the present. PS3 is being dominated. Period.

I love my PSP but Sony fucked up PS3 worse then any human on this planet could have imagined.

I am also not even going to bother arguing. Numbers speak for themselves. Review scores speak for themselves. I always end up in pointless arguments on here with Sony fanboys. You guys can say what you want. However until you prove anything, or the numbers change, you are wrong based on FACTS, not an opinion.

I can't wait for fable 2, UFC's game and TNA Impact to come out for the 360, then I will most definitely have to pick one up.

Once GTA IV comes out, the PS3 sales will jump significantly. Too bad for them that is has taken so long. They are getting their asses kicked.

GTA IV is now scheduled for the first quarter of '08.

http://n4g.com/gaming/News-75734.aspx

also PS3 in Europe it outsells the 360 and the Wii. PS3 is doing fine. their only problem is in USA but their price drops and games coming up will help it a lot.
The jump is due to the price drop, it will not last.

PS3 is not doing fine.

-Sony is losing money on every console sold
-games are being delayed
-MS is now focusing on paying for exclusives, rather than buying up developers....so the "exclusive" PS3 games left are now in their crosshairs.
-multi-platform games are being developed for X360 and the inferior version is ported to the PS3
-some games are being cancelled
-Wii and X360 are on fire and their installed user bases are getting further and further away for the PS3s.......the developers of MGS and FF are watching closely.

Month are month they are at the bottom of this gens console race.

How is it doing fine?
