Title: I am declaring a winner in the real next gen war
Post by: Human Snorenado on July 11, 2007, 06:37:00 AM: Xbox 360, ladies.

I mean, look at this list of quality software that will be available/already out by the end of this year:

-Gears of War
-Viva Pinata and the new one
-Halo 3
-Call of Duty 4
-LOST M'FING ODYSSEY
-MASS FUCKING EFFECT

Srsly, guys. I think that they did the right thing in launching first. Also, please no mentions of the inferior wii in here. We're talking REAL next gen systems only, dudes.

Title: Re: I am declaring a winner in the real next gen war
Post by: Ichirou on July 11, 2007, 08:13:31 AM: I agree with Triumph, it's pretty clear that 360 has won this gen. Just waiting for them to do some kind of fix on the design to lower the failure rate, and I'm picking one up.

Post by: brawndolicious on July 11, 2007, 08:19:16 AM: I didn't notice the "real" at first, I agree, only thing I might want on PS3 is the exclusive MGS trailer to laugh at the dialogue and you can download that with firefox.

They have that new chipset. I'm hoping that in the next couple of months the old ones will be phased out and I can get one with the new chipset. Also, that they'll be cheaper.

Chromehounds is missing from your list.

Is that a good game? I rented it from Gamefly, had it in the envelope for like two months, finally popped it in the 360 and the fucking thing wouldn't read the disc! I took that as a sign.

360 is the new Dreamcast. It's going to be eclipsed by the PS3 within a few years, and will then be a shadow of its former self. Enjoy these days.

The Wii? Pffffffffft. It's the N64 and Game Cube all over again.

GTA's humor is ohhhh so clever... I mean come on, an Internet cafe named "Tw@"... the absolute pinnacle of satire and humor. :P I would take "I NEED SCISSORS! 83!" over GTA any day of the week, and both MGS1 and 3 had decent storylines (it's just 2 that got real absurd with the story and the abundance of cutscenes, which I think is where many complaints about the series stem from, MGS3 is actually pretty heavy on gameplay and light on story, but it has that annoying recovery system, which keeps it from being my favorite. MGS1 is the best.)

What's even funnier is that Kojima himself didn't even write MGS2. In a fit of hubris, he decided to see if anyone was actually paying attention and outsourced the script writing duties.

Here I have an exclusive photograph of the actual author hard at work. Be prepared, though... this is shocking.

I blame those strategy RPGs and the fact that he got just a bit too deep with them in the 32-bit era. It was his gateway to homojapuality!
That, and cut rate Japanese RPG houses love to make games where there aren't more than just loot and levels, which Drinky simply can't resist.

this is how it's going to be: gta:vc>gtaiv>gta3>gta:sa

GTAIV > GTAIII > GTAVC > GTASA > GTA2 > GTAVCS > GTALCS > GTA1 > GTA London >>>> GTA Advance

WTF ARE YOU INSANE

I also like GTA3 more than VC.

BTW, who the fuck would disagree with Triumph's declaration at this point?

The SDF, of course. But no one takes them seriously anyhow.

Post by: Smooth Groove on July 11, 2007, 02:08:31 PM: I love MGS but the story in every game is ridiculously bad. Still, I find the MGS stories to be enjoyable because they're so far fetched yet Kojima's trying so hard to be serious with the political and historical topics. For the people that say that MGS1 has a good story, seriously who the fuck will try to have heart to heart talks with enemies in the midst of battle? Snake's intimate conversations with the bosses alone make the whole story foolish. Also, Kojima should just stop with the US guilt trip bullshit and just recognize that Japan deserved to get its ass bombed.

With that said, I still think that MGS offers a better combination of visuals, sound and action. MGS is the main reason why I don't think that the PS3 is a completely unnecessary console.

Post by: Rman on July 11, 2007, 02:36:31 PM: I still think it's too early to declare a winner between X360 and PS3. Like most I believe that the current generation begun too early. I mean look at GOW2, RE4 and some of Team Ninja's final offerings on the original Xbox. And as thus the adoption rate for both X360 and PS3 has not been so spectacular mainly due to price. Hopefully these two learn that in the next console cycle hardware should be less than $400. But it would be foolish to count Sony out right now. The system has not even been out for a year. It has promising exclusives, MGS4, FFXIII, GT5, Haze, Killzone 2, Little Big Planet, Home, White Knight Story, and also a cachet of brand loyalty especially in PAL regions.

But I do agree that Microsoft has a great chance of beating the PS3 in North America. Also whether you're fan of a platform or a fan of gaming you should embrace the healthy competition. I sure as hell doubt that Sony's online initiative, though lacking some features of Xbox Live, would be as fleshed out as it is today without the competition.
