Man fukk trash ass sony. I had a PS, PS1, PS2, and I bought the PS3 thinking it'd be the shyt but literally an hour after I left game stop I was ready to return it. Ended up selling it and taking a Lauce.

It's been Xbox ever since. If xbox makes a Zone Of Enders reboot or something similar I can die a happy nerd

You fukking fakkit 'gamers'. You care way too much about hardware than quality games. Who cares if that shyt has 80000 cores when the games are nothing but rushed sequels, sub-par PC ports, and shytty, unoriginal games.

I fukking wish the Japanese would come back like 2Pac and take the crown. Western developers are so unimaginative and boring. fukk Assassin's Creed 16, fukk Mass Effect, fukk Call of Duty, fukk Halo, fukk Madden, and fukk anyone who plays those shyts.

You fukking posers piss me the fukk off.
:umad:

Couldn't disagree with this more. Microsoft has been alienating developers since Kinect. I expect that to change with the launch of 720 to some extent but then it would go back to the way it is now. I think they don't care all that much about exclusives and it shows. Even the XBLA exclusives are mostly timed exclusives. Fez, Trials Evo and Mark of the Ninja have already been ported or announced for PC. That really only leaves Dust and Spelunky from 2012.

I'm not making this up, this is what the reporters at websites are saying, Microsoft opened up their wallets again. Timed Exclusives are the new exclusives and it's been shown that those factor in a lot.

That's Courtdog levels of stupidity right now. That doesn't even make sense. Of course it will play PS3 games, it'll have a bluray drive. :what: Don't start trollin the thread with nonsense fam.

As good as MS is with their marketing, the main games promoted were Gears and Halo....2 games..Gonna have to up the ante this time. Promoting multiplat games is :ehh:

They'll win North America again, but the rest of the world will remain Sony.

Why am I dealing with people with head in the sand? :why: The Cell processor is not going to be in the PS4. Sony is using an AMD graphics card in the PS4, they used an Nvidia one in the PS3. That is the rumor as to why Gaikai was purchased by Sony because hardware wise, the PS4 can't do it, they will stream PS3, if it is possible. PS4 isn't playing PS3 games, don't believe me, search the internet. :mj:

3 stacks of Coli Cash if the PS4 don't play PS3 games. That would be moronic if they did that. I planned on doing what I did last gen when I traded in my ps2 for credit towards my ps3. I'll trade one of my ps3s in for PS4 credit.

And this is why MS exclusives as they stand can't even be mentioned in the same breath as the Sony stable. "Timed exclusives are the new exclusives" isn't a false statement but it perfectly captures micrososfts attitude towards exclusives. They feel they don't need a stable of games that will be exclusive to their system for any longer than a year. And when it's that vs the output of sony's internal studios, I'll pick the latter every time. Thankfully that's not the only factor in gaming and I'm sure reasons other than exclusives to want a 720.

I think he hit the nail on the head with the BC issue. Going away from cell CPU will make it almost impossible to allow ps3 bc. Expect a lot more "remakes" instead

:whoa:

I own the Killzone trilogy and two of the resistance games.
Halo easily trumps them and it didn't go through a massive identity change between sequels like these series did.

And I also own the Uncharted Trilogy and the Gears Of War trilogy.
Two very different but similar titles that can (and should be...) mentioned in the same breath as each other.

The ps3 is great but to act like there aren't third party titles or exclusives to the other platforms that aren't just as great is to potentially ignore fantastic experiences.

and @ghaleon :pacspit: for coming at Mass Effect.

The PS3 has Cell (IBM) as a CPU, the RSX (Nvidia) as a GPU. PS4 has an AMD CPU and GPU.

Xbox 360 has Xenon (IBM) as a CPU, the Xenos (AMD) as a GPU, Next Xbox has AMD CPU and GPU.

PS3 games will try to be streamed or they will come like these PS2 games or remasters. You expect to be able to put in your Last of Us Bluray and play it on the PS4. :childplease: Not going to happen. Architecture is way too different to pull off. Cell technology is far different than the PC tech that Sony is going to use for the PS4. This has nothing to do with courtdog, just follow what has come out about the consoles. They aren't going to put PS3 hardware inside of the console like they did with the launch version of the PS3 and PS2 hardware. That's why I bought my OG PS3 on launch date.

Halo is still good even now. And Gears is pretty good too. And of course Forza. Aaaannd that's about it. Gears and Uncharted both feel like they need a break. The difference is Sony directly and indirectly allow their studios to take that break. So naughty dog is working on last of us, insomniac is working on sly instead of infamous, mM is working on tearaway, they opened a new studio that made PSABR. Meanwhile at microsoft, they probably drove the main creator of fable away, they lost bungie and Epic lost CliffyB. You can't convince me those are all coincidences. Sony provides a developer ecosystem and MS just throws money at stuff.

if they can fully utilize those specs, then sure, go cop it, but you know how it is.

I think we seen the best. there's no way you can get better graphics.

PS3 also had more japanese games. PS3 is a more international system then trashbox.
