yes people that think banjo kazooie is one of the big exclusives for ps3 know so much ;)

As opposed to someone who lists Halo as one of the worst games of all time, doesn't understand NPD data, and recommends games with sex and self mutilation to 14 year olds?

Was it not an exclusive?

Am I incorrect in some way?

haha i think halo is the most overrated game ever, not the worst i was just stirring the pot a bit  ;)

i'm willing to bet there are more 14 year olds that play mature games than those that aren't allowed

what 14 year old doesn't watch r rated movies?

what are the great games today that don't have excessive violence?

Oh wait... you're right... I went back and read the thread... Apparently the subtlety of my point was lost on you in that thread.

My point was that I didn't know what the exclusives are on the PS3 genius... because their exclusives were unknown basically.

God... I wasn't serious about that... Hell, I was just pulling a game out of a hat at the time.


Talking exclusivity is pointless... no one makes better exclusive games than Nintendo.

On the Xbox you get Halo.

On the PS3 you get Metal Gear Solid? (Is that even an exclusive?) Banjoo Kazooie? I dunno what's exclusive on the PS3 honestly.

Let's be clear though, none of them will compare to whatever Mario, Zelda, Donkey Kong, Super Smash Brothers type of shit on the Nintendo machine.

for a guy that claims to be involved in the industry, you should be well aware of the awesome ps3 exclusives

but hey keep playing mario and donkey kong, 1996 never ends in your house ;D

I play the games that are worth playing on ALL of the systems... You are kind of a clown by being a fanboy you know.

Lots of great games come out and I like to play them.


I'm more than involved...

As a matter of fact, I have more than a little proof.

This is from the Medal of Honor credits... If you wanna smell what I'm cookin'... look about 1/3 down and take a big whif.

Mirrors edge was better for me on the PS3.
Uncharted
Metal Gear Solid 4

Now that I'm much further into the game my final verdict is 7/10. I dont think much more will change in the game to change my mind unless the ending totally blows. The actions get a bit boring/repetitive. The side games are lame. Some of them feel totally  pointless and nothing but empty filler.  The story is alright, the cool facial stuff becomes less important  after awhile of playing and the whole point of it eventually gets kinda lost when you're busy having to read the subtitles to understand everything thats being said, instead of watching for facial expressions. Some puzzles suck as well, especially when the game actually figures them out for you.

I had a lot more fun playing GTA4.

Just as a note, since it's the LA Noire thread...

1.6 Million copies sold in North America (in the first 5 days) and the UK (only 2 days).

Comparatively, Red Dead Redemption did 1.9 Million in that span.

I am quite sure we'll see a sequel with these numbers.

Yeah, sometimes I find that these games have volume issues, or some of the dialog overlaps, sometimes the charecters don't even speak while their lips move, certain bugs like that and I don't want to miss anything. I think the manual even recommends it.

Some. Yes. But I find other things new and refreshing.

Like how you search and find clues. The vibrating controversy when you get close. Moving the stick to focus in on a clue.

All very cool ways to not ruin the immersiveness. I did that.

Every time I watch someone talk. I'm still blown away. The peoples faces are identical to their real life counterparts.

Did you notice how many actors were in this thing?

No worries Earl.  I agree to a point about the R rated games, but the content in Heavy Rain I think would be a bit much, over their head, and possibly boring to them.

Just finished. Decent enough ending... I was satisfied.

I definitely expect a sequel.
