One argument was how bad 360's launch titles suck and how great PS3's will be. Well first I don't recall any company announcing they were launching their title with the system, probably because the system is just a theory for now. Secondly, the titles they listed really sound like a dream launch, stressing dream. MGS4, Warhawk, Gran Turismo, Tekken etc. I know it says potential, but the reason was specifically "Xbox 360 has no killer app". None of those titles will make launch, and maybe with the exception of Tekken, I don't see any of those titles being first year. All those developers take pride in their games. What your gonna get is one or two original titles, and then the developer who takes zero to no pride in making rehashes, EA, will toss in about 15 of their games. Thats the PS3 lineup. And just like the PS1 and PS2 lineup, it'll be garbage. Kameo, Condemned, Call of Duty 2, and PD0 are all almost high quality to high quality games. You go over to EB and look at all games scheduled to come out before Nov. , yea, that's a lot of good titles. So when PS3 does come out, you'll be hard-pressed.
And the reason I hate PS3 fanboys, just the stupid crap you hear about why it's better.
"It's more powerful" (true, but not to the extent of PS2/Xbox)
"It'll be cheaper"
"The games will be better"
That kind of stuff pisses me off.
Now if were talking after a year or two, well I don't have a crystal ball but then I'd be a fanboy if I said 360 would own. It probably will, but PS3, MGS4, you can only imagine another Twisted Metal game is coming, no doubt a slew of RPG's, it's tough to say but PS3 isn't gonna be #1 when it comes out, beyond that, things look a lot brighter.
