Maguire claims competitors are waning, best is to come from PS3

blah blah blah … usual PR stuff .

2012 will be the year of the PlayStation.

I’m with the Wolf.

Sony… Thank goodness the PS3 devs still seem decent, I haven’t heard anything like this from Insomniac or Media molecule yet. So the PS3 still has some amount of pride that it doesn’t entertain the kind of wanton whoring that CliffyB tends to propogate.

Pro-tip, Sony: You still have pride, keep what you can.

2008 has been the year of the PS3.

Certainly in a redemption sense anyway. Some amazing titles this year.

This year has been the year, becuase it’s had a very VERY good lineup, and I am no longer looking forward to titles as much, becuase I have others in my hands.

“I could argue that some other competing formats are on their way down right now”

If down is up and up is down, yes he is right.

If fallacy is your middle name you’re right.

i think the wii is on its way down, purely because the world is running out of people to buy one, but xbox and ps3 are both on the up.

I hope HD is on the up, but judging by the PS2, the Wii hasn’t even hit half way mark.

The world is really not running out of people to buy the Wii… we haven’t even seen what it can do with full supply in the US yet.

Think about that. The Wii has been in shortage for 2 years in the US.

LIke I said….

PS2 and Wii will onyl differ a bit.

But ultimately once the Wii gets games that work on it, it will surpass the 130,000,000 mark.

I think PS2 was an almalgamation of casual and Hardcore, and I don’t know if Wii has that allure really.

Exactly which of the “competing formats” are “on the way down”? Because as far as I can see… neither of them are. Unless he’s talking about the PS2.

I like Esha’s completely unprovoked side-swipe at Cliff B.

I wonder if he works for Sony.

I’m thinking of glass houses. I’m thinking of stones. I’m thinking of hypocrisy. I’m thinking of morriss.

Anyway, if you want to have a go at Esha you have to get past me first.

spacegiraffe should be #1 !!!! Spacegiraffe for the win !

Now there’s a thought…. Have we ever seen Shatner and Esha in a room together?

lol

It’s his sock, it has to be. There can’t actually be two people like that on the internet at the same time. It’s unpossible.

Hey conspiracy theorists!

Did you notice how the letters “E” “S” “H” and “A” are all in the word “Shatner”?

Also, MesserWolf’s post above is nearly perfect. If he’d capitalised the first instance of Space Giraffe he’d have nailed it.

Bah, if you were really a Space Giraffe fan you’d be talking about the soon to be released PC version.

I do think the best is to come from the PS3, but are the competitors waning? I’m not so sure. Wait, give me an original exclusive on the 360, quickly!

Psycho, you clearly hadn’t seen my VG247 board post about that very topic.

..or you were being sarcastic.

What do you mean by an ‘original exclusive’, Gamoc?

Banjo Kazooie obviously.

There may have been a touch of sarcasm involved Shatner. I think you could do slightly more to big the game up though! Get to it.

Viva Pinata.

On the other subject… have you people never seen this method of arguing before?

He’ll say there are none, you’ll list a bunch and then he’ll say they don’t count because he thought they sucked, or they didn’t sell well, or they got a couple of bad reviews, or the graphics were bad, or they didn’t innovate in a particular genre, or they were like another game made 10 years before, or they didn’t include multiplayer, or they came out last year, or they kicked his puppy when he was a child… etc

Space Giraffe

That doesn’t count because it suc…

/thinks better of it

- Braid
- Rez HD
- Ninja Gaiden 2
- Gears of War
- Halo Wars
- Castle Crashers

To name just a few.

Rez HD?

Yes. Rez is an original exclusive 360 game!

EDIT: oh, it’s HD – that makes all the difference!

My questioning was directed at Michael rather than to Gamoc – a bit like Shatner’s response but less dripping with sarcasm .

Sarcastic?

Moi?

Never!

Well, it is exclusive to 360, right?

Considering the age of the original, I think it’s a valid one to put on the list. Feel free to disagree though.

Oh, and Fable 2.

Not sure how I forgot that one.

Well why don’t we just put Sonic the Hedgehog in there too then?

You leave Sonic the Hedgehog out of this you brute!

Because it’s not on any of the other current generation consoles.

Anyway, it’s just one game on the list. Ignore it as part of the list if its that big of a deal. =/

Heh. Games that appear on other machines AND the 360? Let’s just pretend that they’re exclusive to the 360!

How cute.

“Because it’s not on any of the other current generation consoles.”

Neither is Halo Wars yet.

And Gears of War exists on platforms other than the 360.

Some people seem to have a very flexible definition of ‘exclusive’ (let alone ‘original’) when it suits them.

Game isn’t out yet? Oh, it’s exclusive to 360!
Game already out on another machine from another generation? Oh, it’s exclusive to 360!

Now, there’s a good number of 360 original exclusives, but some of those quoted do not fall into such a definition unless you’re deliberately adding ‘technicalities’ to help with your list making.

Carry on though. I’m sure nobody’s noticed

Is Sonic on any of the others? Maybe Wii I supose. Besides I can play Rez on my PS3

You can’t play Space Giraffe on your PS3 (good job Super Stardust HD is around to make up that deficit though!). Fortunately, the 360′s BEST GAME is also coming to PC very soon so when that green light turns red you can still enjoy your class-A digital narcotics. THANKS JEFF!

Oh, and EVERY game has existed on PC (they all get developed on PCs irrespective of their final release platform) even though, like Halo Wars, it may not have reached the public in that (or any) form yet.

So, if we’re going to include unreleased games in our “exists on a platform” definition then no consoles have any exclusive titles at all.

Woo! Logic!!

“Neither is Halo Wars yet.”

Latest NewsFlash: Halo Wars, coming to a PS3 near you soon!

As I said… “Ignore it as part of the list if its that big of a deal. =/ “. The list is still fairly extensive.

Oh god… you’ve set Shatner off now. lol

Oh dear. Looks like Michael’s not a fan of logic when it doesn’t suit his conclusions!

Still, please continue to misconstrue what others say. It makes you look big and clever!

PS3 has the magnificent Valkyria Chronicles, it has no need to attach a franchise to such a quality title. Not that I’d say no to a God of War SRPG.

CONSOLE WARZ: Believe.

Cliffy B is a cock.

Hahaha LOL ;_; Rez hahah
