pretty good list. honestly I wouldn't be able to rank those games since they all look equally amazing to me. not to mention uncharted 2 and white knight chronicles isn't listed

NewNameNow5363d ago

I agree Uncharted 2 should have been listed but I really wanted to put the others up as I personally never played the first. Although if I had to replace one it would be Ratchet Future with Uncharted since it does look really good.

Madusha5363d ago

Uncharted 2 and God of War 3 is going to be absolutely mind blowing :D

Venomish5363d ago

Modnation Racers a honorable mention in ps3 top 5 exclusives
too much of a joke

Game13a13y5363d ago

take out Modnation Racers then your list is good to go. come on, lets not forget the Agent, the secret exclusive from R*

BattleAxe5363d ago

Exclusives I'm getting day one:

- Uncharted 2
- MAG
- God of War 3
- Quantum Theory

Multi-platform games I'm getting day one:

- Operation Flashpoint 2
- Modern Warfare 2
- BattleField: Bad Company 2
- Call of Duty Classic

SnuggleBandit5363d ago

This just shows how many people don't know about uncharted 2...the mainstream folks have no idea. Never heard of it.

WildArmed5363d ago

I agree for the most part.
But i wouldnt rank heavy rain up there.. since imo, its a less established franchise. (first of its kind!). i'd move up the list n put Uncharted 2 instead. n heavy rain as honorable mention

mastiffchild5363d ago

Being a BIG fan of Shenmue and Farenheit/IP I HAVE to disagree. The fact Sony have allowed so much of a free reign to QD with HY is part of why I value haiving them as part of the gaming scene. No other console maker would push such a(currently) niche title like they have and it's the duty of gamers, like us, in the know to trumpet games which might point the way to successful genres of the future like this.

It's a sumptuous looking game with a different emphasis to pretty much anythuing else releasing in the near future-it's brave, different and thought provoking and those are attrinutes more games should have in this gay and age of constantly recycled sequels and tired yearly releasing franchises. When was the last time such an oblique ganme got this kind of support? Probably Shenmue-and because word never got round despite most people who tried it loving it-it nearly killed Sega off single handed. That's why we owe it to ourselves to push this esp if we want more brave, refreshing games to follow it.

End of support broadcast for under appreciated developers.

Sarcasm5363d ago

Man, Kratos does look insane from that picture. One dude nobody should mess with.

Tachyon_Nova5363d ago (Edited 5363d ago )

If it was up to me, I'd have to do a top 12 list.
1: Gran Turismo 5
2: Agent - Not much is known, but seeing who its being made by...
3: Ratchet and Clank: ACiT
4: Uncharted 2
5: Final Fantasy XIII Versus
6: Massive Action Game - if they can keep lag out of the game
7: Quantum or Quantum Theory (Have they settled on a name yet? Last I heard they had gone back to Quantum Theory.
8: Heavy Rain
9: God of War III (Probably should be higher, but I've only ever played the original so I haven't kept up with the series.
10: The Last Guardian
11: The Agency
12: Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2

These aren't in a definite order, its way to hard to order that list of games in terms of greatness. Its gonna be happy hunting for my PS3 over the next 12 months, thats for sure. :)

foxtheory5363d ago

My PS3 will certainly be happy in the next year, even though it already is!

N4GAddict5362d ago

The Last Guardian should be #1 imo.

TheReaper425362d ago

my top 5 would be

1 - FFvXIII
2 - GT5
3 - GOW3
4 - UC2
5 - Heavy Rain.

I bought the PS1 for Final Fantasy 7
I bought the PS2 for GT and the next Final Fantasy
Bought the PS3 waiting for FFvXIII.

Nice list. Needs more Last Guardian though.

- Ghost of Sparta -5363d ago (Edited 5363d ago )

Exactly. I would have replaced Versus with The Last Guardian and where the f*ck is Uncharted 2? List fails.

10. Demon's Souls
9. Starhawk
8. Ratchet & Clank: A Crack in Time
7. MAG
6. Heavy Rain
5. Gran Turismo 5
4. Agent
3. Uncharted 2
2. God of War 3
1. The Last Guardian

NewNameNow5363d ago

@ Ghost of Sparta

Uncharted 2 deserves the number 0 spot it seems.

patterson5363d ago (Edited 5363d ago )

1) The Last Guardian
2) Uncharted 2
3) Gran Turismo 5
4) Final Fantasy Versus XIII
5) Yakuza 3 (I know they said it's not coming but I don't believe them! :P)
6) Heavy Rain
7) MLB 09 The Show
8) Atelier Rorona: Alchemist of Arland
9) Trinity Universe
10) Last Rebellion
11) Ratchet and Clank Future: A Crack in Time

Hey what can I say, I like rpgs >_>

NewNameNow5363d ago

@Patterson

Great list, and I haven't played too many good RPG's lately. I'll check those out.

jBat175362d ago (Edited 5362d ago )

1. Demon's Soul
2. Uncharted 2
3. GT5
4. R&C: ACIT
5. Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2

i already pre-ordered all except GT5, which will certainly be pre-ordered when available.

xbots would probably cry if they knew we will also be getting GOW 1 and 2 re-make, PJ: Shooter and Eyepet this year. (i forgot AFRIKA, a niche title but would be a must-buy for me if you can export pictures to harddrive)

Games to be released EARLY next year (confirmed with a "release month")
1. WKC
2. GOW3
3. Heavy Rain
4. MAG
5. The Show 10 (best rated sports series)

Christopher_Walken5363d ago

Too many awesome exclusives to even come close to being able to fit all the greatness into a top 5 list.

NewNameNow5363d ago

Definitely agree with you but I tried!

zenosaga045363d ago (Edited 5363d ago )

good list I also think that Uncharted 2 and The Last Guardian will be amazing titles.

I think it's too hard to just pick 5 exclusives, because Demon's Souls, Modnation Racers, and White Knight Chronicles look spectacular as well. Maybe next time there should be a top 10 upcoming exclusives list lol

JL5363d ago

Eh the list is pretty good. I'm sure all will be enjoyable games to those that they appeal to. However, my list probably wouldn't look like that at all. Definitely would've taken Ratchet off for Uncharted 2. I'm glad you mention ModNation as well. Cause that game looks awesome to me and I'd probably rate it much higher than it seems the game gets credit for. Even ModNation I'd personally put above Ratchet. But you're right, Top 10 would be much better. For me though Uncharted 2 has to sit at #1. GT5 gets 2. Heavy Rain 3. GOWIII at 4. And might quite possibly have to put ModNation at 5. Either that or MAG. Then flesh the top 10 out with Versus, TLG, WKC, and Ratchet.

Sh*t, forgot about Demon's Souls even after you mentioned it. That would probably have to fight for that #5 spot for me alongside ModNation and MAG. Then the other two get 6 and 7. While Versus, TLG and WKC fight for the bottom three spots (have to bump Ratchet--just not that into it).

SixTwoTwo5363d ago (Edited 5363d ago )

There are a lot of PS3 exclusives coming out over the next 12 months. I'm sure everyone will have a different top 5. For me its U2, GoW3, Agent, FFXIV, and TLG.

Microsoft once tried to nab LittleBigPlanet from Sony after a few drinks

It turns out that many moons ago, Microsoft once had its eye on the Sony published LittleBigPlanet series.

Microsoft had a good idea but fumbled it again.

Cacabunga2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

Project Spark idea was decent but they quickly gave up ..
LBP was wonderful

ApocalypseShadow3d ago

Microsoft in a nutshell. Always tried to poach Sony employees, games, 3rd party games and devices like the depth camera that was turned into Kinect but was running on PS2 before Xbox 360. Wouldn't be surprised they wanted LBP. Just like they worked behind the scenes pushing the MLB to bring Sony's baseball game to Xbox instead of making their own.
https://www.playstationlife...

They didn't spend years trying to develop their own baseball game. They wanted Sony's game.

They're scum.

Zachmo1822d ago

Microsoft didn't force MLB on Xbox. MLB gave Sony 2 options either go multiplat or risk losing the license.

Rynxie2d ago

And why do you think MLB said that? I believe Ms approached MLB.

ApocalypseShadow2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

Totally ridiculous comment.

The only exclusivity Sony had was to their own creation of The Show. Microsoft could have paid the MLB for the license just like Sony did and made their own baseball game.

Microsoft instead, groomed MLB for years in trying to poach Sony's game and bring it to Xbox. They're worth 3 TRILLION dollars. You think that's not enough money to make their own baseball game? Don't be delusional.

Microsoft spun it like they always do and told the media that they had to trust Sony with their hardware. After they put Sony in that position of not having a choice. Either go multiplatform or stop making one of their successful games. That's a no win scenario.

And what did Microsoft do? They didn't try to sell the game to the Xbox community. They put it on game pass to hurt Sony. Pushing the idea of why buy games that are $70 when you can play them in their cheap service for $10. It was a dirty tactic.

You fell for the Kool aid drink Microsoft served you instead of spitting it out. Hope it tasted good because you were fooled by Phil and the gang.

Xbox executive Sara Bond has told Axios that Microsoft spent a number of years trying to get MLB The Show onto Xbox consoles. And when it finally succeeded in breaking off PlayStation’s long-held exclusivity, the company had to “trust” Sony with pre-release Xbox Series X/S consoles.

Bond revealed that MLB The Show “always came up” in conversations between Microsoft and the Major League Baseball organization. “We always said, ‘We love this game. It would be a huge opportunity to bring it to Xbox.'” she recalled. However, when Microsoft’s efforts materialized, it put the company in an awkward situation where it had to send in pre-release consoles to a rival company.

Lying to yourself is unbecoming.

Article link tells you all you need to know in Sarah Bond's own words.

Hereandthere1d 18h ago

They were too cheap/inept/lazy to develop their own mlb game, so they port begged for years and bribed the mlb to make the show multiplatform. Like i said many times, xbox brought nothing to the table their 24 years, ZERO.

ApocalypseShadow1d 4h ago

At least you and others get it. Note drank the Kool aid and asked for seconds thinking it was refreshing.

Most don't even know how it all played out but it's there in black and white for all to see. Microsoft brought it up for years until the MLB forced Sony's hand. It was a win win for Microsoft. Kill one reason to buy a PlayStation or kill the game by dropping it in a cheap service to kill Sony's sales numbers on PlayStation.

OtterX2d ago

"However, Healey said Media Molecule wouldn't have felt right doing that, adding it would have been "morally corrupt"."

Major kudos to Media Molecule for being an upright studio with principles.

Cockney23h ago

They chose well, Sony gave them the backing to pursue their dreams with no restrictions even tho their games especially dreams have very niche appeal. Media molecule and Sony deserve respect for this in an age of risk averse publishing.

RNTody2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

Great, more stories like this please. Show the last of the zombies holding the line what we've been saying for years: Microsoft is anti competition, anti industry and has no interest in making games at all.

But hey, at least there's an Xbox Games Showcase to look forward to, right?

Inverno2d ago

Well considering SONY just killed the series, LBP would've been dead by now either way. Though MM probably wouldn't exist by now either, so I'm glad they stayed with SONY, hopefully they don't get shut down any time soon or ever honestly.

Inverno2d ago

They shut down the servers, that's millions of user created levels gone. That and dead are pretty much the same, it's also been years since 3 and they cancelled HUB soooo.

1d 22h ago
fsfsxii1d 23h ago

They shutdown the servers because no one was playing, no one in the community cared about the user created levels so why keep them up? Wtf you guys would never succeed in running a business.

Inverno1d 22h ago

Yea dood no one was playing so they shut off the servers. Cause people with enough common sense can't just Google why they were actually shut of, right?
