Holla all.
My view on all this is... Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
well i have a 360 at the moment and will be getting PS3 for Christmas. The reason, There are a lot of exclusive games i want on PS3 for a start like Uncharted, Resistance, moterstorm, warhawk, Little Big Planet, MGS4, Final Fantasy XII, Haze(ITS NOT GENERIC! You have necter! + if any FPS is generic its WW2 shooters, and *Gasp* Halo!BUT Just because a game is generic doesn't make it crap!) They are the main PS3 games i am looking forward to at the moment.

As for multiplatform games i will get the version off the game on the best platform. UNLESS it requires a lot of proccessing power than i will get on PS3 (like Oblivion) to avoid crashing in a tense moment. I am dissapointed with the removal of BC but people who get a PS3 will proberbly have a PS2 which they should keep. There are many games on my 360 that i am Looking Sooooooooooo forward to like mass effect, Fable 2, etc.

I also Realy looking forward to Blu ray which i support over HD DVD due to greater studio support. I do not care who wins as long as all systems stay on the market so i can reap the benifits of all 3 console( my sis owns a wii)If any 1 of these consoles failed it would have a massive impact on the gaming industry as a whole. Now then i am extreemly dissapointed with the people who blog on this site, peole who claim othrs dont use facts however they neither use facts like gareth! you are an extreemly imature person. You use lies to get your point across like saying resistance got pants revies all other. http://www.metacritic.com/games/platforms/ps3/resistancefallofman?q=resistance Wow 67 revs and a average score of 86. That doesant sound crap. Or heavanly sword http://www.metacritic.com/games/platforms/ps3/heavenlysword 79=Genraly favarable revies.
Gareth is probably one of the biggest fanboys on the web in my opinion. Imfact that is the reason i joined joystiq. To counter Gareth.

Good Day Chaps

Not at all, he puts some people in their place(when needed)even though he may come off as a jerk. He also has fact to prove what hes discussing also... whats so sad about that? Because its not in your favor of the system/company hes and many other people are talking about?

Because he's an ass? He just comes off as your typical 12 year old e-badass. Needlessly flaming people doesn't help make your point, it only makes you look like a child.

Then feel sad for me too becuase I'm also a fan of Gareth. At least he uses his brains, presents actual facts, and uses satire (something most of you will never understand) to get his point across. Doesn't mean I have to agree with everything he says. It just makes me a fan becuase he does his homework most of the time on these things.

As for myself...there's a reason I want a Wii (owns a X360) now and a PS3 is maybe a year or two: I need more than 3 great games of my interest to convince me to pick up the system.

- No GT5 ain't gonna do it...sim racing games aren't my thing. Give me RC Pro Am (Rare bring this back!) or Mario Kart anyday.

- Heavenly sword has been getting no love from the game media so far. And uh...is it me, or doesn't it sound like god of war with an excuse to have a hot female as the lead character?

- MGS 4 doesn't interest me becuase I never was interested in Metal Gear period.

- Warhawk...ok game. Played it the other day.

- Little Big World. The jury is still out on this one.

- Everything else....well, that's what my X360 (and soon wii) is for. To not only play these same games, but to enjoy some of them at 60 frames per second. Sad how the PS3 is suppose to be more powerful and can't do that.

- Bluray. Don't care, and nether do I care for HD-DVD. That's why Microsoft gives us an OPTION, not a nesesscity(spelling?) to watch high def movies. Regular DVD is fine just the way it is. My TV displays a great clear picture. It may not be HD, but it's a sweet big TV to display some sharp pictures on.

So I wish you all and the media would get off the high def DVD bandwagon. I believe it's still too early to adopt to that point.

If sony stop bringing out so many SKUs, forcing bluray down our throats, and getting tons of great PS3-only titles, make our PS1 and 2 collection mean anything by having BC in all SKUs, their system will actually mean something. Oh and a lower price would help too.

Gareth is totally powning the Sony fanboyz all by his lonesome. Why? Everyone reading the Sony fanclub's posts realize they sound like idiots and Gareth is backing up statements!

Funny, your avatar would suggest you are an Xbox fan, but by your own admission you are a Sony fan. How odd.

Heh, thanks for the support. Although I only take the time to post when people of considerable stupidity piss me off enough to give me the incentive to do so, it is nice to see that there are people out there that can see past the slurs and appreciate that there is actually some truth in what I'm saying. =)

Sony did a good job with the PSone and PS2 (with the marketing anyway, though again their consoles under-delivered technically), but really have messed up big-time with this PS3. Their arrogance, determination to ignore what their fans want and complete lack of common sense are really going to be their undoing. Kaz Hirai's job is now all about damage limitation - I think it's already too late for a comeback - and making sure that these mistakes all serve as lessons for PS4.

Oh yeah we are kicking those helpless Iraqis asses oh boy!! Woo hooo AMERICA FUCK YEAH...get a clue. We are leaving that county a bigger mess then it was before Bush illegally invaded. Whose ass are we kicking again and why?
Are you fucking retarded? You think attacking Iran is a good idea? Do you know anything about that country besides the drivel and propaganda our country throws out there? Do you know the Iranian people? Do you even know your own history? The U.S. govt installed the ayatollah of Iran I believe in the 70's, fuck it this is pointless. Go back to getting drunk and blowing shit up. Watch out though...those Blackwater assholes won't be around there much longer so you may have to rely on the rest of our stretched thin troops for support.

Erm, he was being satirical.

Seriously, Joystiq needs to employ some kind of /satire tag or something as many of its readers are unfortunately unable to make this distinction by themselves. Fuck knows what these people are taught in schools, though I feel that how to get dressed in the mornings without accidentally setting themselves on fire is a likely candidate.

Are you sure you're in the right thread? This is joystiq.com, moveon.org is that other website where the communists hang out.

Actually that was a response to jonny. I suppose I should have specified. Oh and I don't particularly care for moveon...they are a decent organization but they are unfocused.

You know, there is a line where satire can become just plain insulting. Gareth's posts, while funny for half a page, have hit that point. Lose your pissy pants and come back when you can make a point without saying "but it only has two games".

And just for some flamebait, the 360 also has only TWO games, Halo 3 and Bioshock.

Because as we all know you can't count multiplatform games for either system.

Also, the Wii has only two games, Zelda and Super Smash Bros.

See, anyone can do that Gareth. And I can even give names to the games, how about your 2 for PS3? My PS3 two are: MGS4 and FFXIII.
