Console Supremacy?

Nov 20, 2008 22:50

On Friday, I sold my Xbox 360, the one with the 20 GB hard drive, and a ton of games.  Dude I sold it to got a pretty good deal!  On Monday, I bought a PS3.  Let's discuss in +/- form.

+ The PS3 is SO PRETTY.  Glossy white!  
- It's not the 80 GB model, it's 40
+ Free online play!*
- I got a Sixaxis controller, which is light and puny and not as ( Read more... )

I'm jealous of people who are able to play Little Big Planet, but it just seems like there are too many games on 360 (especially XBLA games) to go to the PS3 just for that and whatever the guy who made Shadow of the Colossus does next. Metal Gear is a series I'm interested in but would prefer to watch someone else play and Final Fantasy is no longer exclusive! Are there any other specific games you're looking forward to specifically?

Also, do you/will you have an HDTV? Blu-Ray is also a big +!

Blu-Ray kind of means nothing to me right now because of the lack of HDTV and I really don't understand it. I don't rent movies here in Korea or anything, so the BR capabilities will go unused for a while ( ... )

I just bought the $5 Song Summoner for my ipod and it is BREAKING MY BRAIN.

Also, I remember when my roomie got Final Fantasy X-2 and i told him it seemingly "put the fantasy in Final Fantasy." Scantily clad ladies changing outfits for superpowers. Weird.

BUT SERIOUSLY METAL GEAR TWO IS PROBABLY MY FAVORITE GAME EVER.

And I was primarily a sports gamer, so that's saying a lot.

I don't play games online and I haven't really seen any games I want yet for the PS3. If I had a nice TV, I'd probably pick one up (both for blu-ray and its superior visuals) but there aren't any interesting games for it like there are for 360 (Dead Rising, Crackdown, Dead or Alive Xtreme 2) - I can see it being the weapon of choice for someone who plays a lot of multiplayer though.

Friggin' Xbox Live is such a jerk move.

My theory is, I've already played all the must-play (for me) games for the 360.. .which is to say, Dead Rising and...well, just that one. I think that most developers aren't going to go console exclusive in the future, so saying I have Console A and not Console B is going to be relatively moot. Obviously 1st party titles will be exclusive, but I don't see a real advantage to either company in that regard.
