The Next Great Video Game War
We're flush with excitement over the New Xbox Experience, with all its Avatars and Netflix streaming. So excited, in fact, that many of us seem to have temporarily forgotten that there's another community-based service with avatars (currently in beta) is looking to top the NXE -- PlayStation Home. Just as a reminder, here's a taste of what Home can still hold over the 360's new look.

I'm a beer-drinking, collared shirt wearing FRAT douche so I own a 360 and support it on an utterly biased scale. Me like every other simple American takes in news best through pretty colors so. http://penny-arcade.com/comic/2008/12/12/

Upcoming PS3 exclusives: Uncharted 2, Killzone 2, The Agency, God of War III, DC Universe Online, White K***ht Story, M.A.G., Final Fantasy Versus XIII, Twisted Metal (next), Rockstar PS3 Exclusive Project, Square-Enix MMO Project...... Now go sit in a corner with your big DUNCE hat, little boy, since you obviously do know $#!+...
"umm Mass Effect, ninja gaiden 2, fable 2, crackdown etc..please you guys lost every exclusive title down the board from gta to final fantasy, and metal gear hyped been died out, that rachet & clank **** sucks, motorstorm? who cares, god of war? 3 is gonna suck and GOW = gears now, your lucky to have even gotten saints row and GAME OF THE YEAR "BIOSHOCK" which leads me to my next question...when was the last time you guys had an exclusive that won Game of the year? its funny that the best you guys have this year is little big planet..are you kidding me? our multiplatform titles are always better than your e.i. Rock band 2: notice every commercial has a 360 logo at the end..you guys got worked so bad..idiots" Lmfao. Are you serious? First of all, Gta and Final Fantasy are 3rd party. They arent owned by Sony and they can get bought. And they did, by greedy little Microsoft. Meteal gear hype died? ****, your gears of war hype is dead to. Same with Halo 3. So... What are you talking about? Obviously, you've never played God of War. So dont tell me that its worse then Gears of war 2. Which its not. LittlebigPlanet is nominated for game of the year. "Our Multiplatform titles are always better then your" Yeah. Because most companies are so lazy to switch to ps3. You're right. "Noticed how ever commercial has a 360 logo at the end" Becuase those commercials are made my microsoft retard. Resistance kicks gears of wars right in the ass. Btw, hows those square blood pixels doing for ya?
Bigtthepimp: MGS4, Gran Turismo, Resistance 2, Littlebigplanet, and Killzone 2.
Ya I had a 360 once just for halo and that was the only reason why, but after i played halo 3 for like a week and found out how ****ing *** it was compared to halo 2 i decided to try out the ps3 cuz ive always been a playstation and ps2 fan and all i can say is that ive never been happier, I mean when it comes down to it, it's all about personal taste but the ps3 exclusives such as mentioned below, i have played them all, were far greater then any game i have played so im going to stick with the ps3, especially since i have to play final fantasy xiii sure the 360 gets the first part of the 3 but thats it which is pretty ***, so im happy that i can play 2 of the 3 cuz the 3rd will be for psp.
oh, I forgot to mention Folklore. Amazing game.
Most 360 "exclusives" end up on the PC anyway. And my PC is better than a 360, so I'll play them on that. 5+ good PS3 exclusives: Metal Gear Solid 4, LittleBigPlanet, Heavenly Sword, Uncharted, Motorstorm, Resistance 2, not including all the great playstation network games.. So far the only 360 game I've wanted to play is Fable 2, and maybe Gears of War, but i hear its overrated. I played halo 3 once and never touched it again, its such a generic FPS, I don't know why people like it so much. Both of my roommates have 360s, as soon as they got a PS3 they almost never use the 360 anymore(except for Fable 2). All the multi-platform games they get are for the PS3.
well while i am a Looong time xbox fan i do think that "game space" thing is pretty cool. though i still find my 360 more fun with games that i enjoy, and i never play any of the NXE avatar games or spaces or w/e so it really doesnt matter to me.
Dont you guys get that xbox games and mircosoft pc's have to play blu-ray. Even the new 360 has blu-ray. Who owns the rights to it. That right, Sony. Sony makes money no matter if its their game or Mircosofts. So the arguments are pointless. Let find a way to take out Sega 2.0, Opps, I mean the Wii.
@ krazymadk5472 Thats funny. Massive? Name two other exclusives that are fun besides Gears of war and Halo. Oh yeah.. That's right... So go away? umm Mass Effect, ninja gaiden 2, fable 2, crackdown etc..please you guys lost every exclusive title down the board from gta to final fantasy, and metal gear hyped been died out, that rachet & clank **** sucks, motorstorm? who cares, god of war? 3 is gonna suck and GOW = gears now, your lucky to have even gotten saints row and GAME OF THE YEAR "BIOSHOCK" which leads me to my next question...when was the last time you guys had an exclusive that won Game of the year? its funny that the best you guys have this year is little big planet..are you kidding me? our multiplatform titles are always better than your e.i.
