PS3, flawless victory............ maybe not flawless but close, in the end it had too many awesome memorable games

The early years of the PS3 were pretty bad, Sony did extremely well to turn it around "kinda" like what MS is doing now with the XB1

vishmarx3291d ago

xbox was king early on but the last 4 or so years ms completely dropped the ball and sony rekt them

- Most diverse game library
- Reliable hardware
- Free online
- PS Plus value
- Best multimedia device
- Best and cheapest blu-ray player (even today)
- Most sales even releasing one year later than the 360 and costing almost twice as much for a year, while being more expensive the whole time

I mean was there even a chance for the 360 winning last gen?

However, kudos to MS for grabbing all that market share from Playstation last gen even if Sony made a mess with the ps3's late, expensive and stale game-wise launch, inevitably 'opening the gates to the enemy'.

I will admit PS3 had a strong grip in 2013 with a lot great titles. Xbox 360 came back like a ferocious lion in 2014

Fable Anniversary
Halo Spartan Assault
Rekoil Liberator
Super Time Force
Titanfall
World of Tanks
Max and the Cursed Brotherhood
The Crew exclusive on Xbox 360 not PS3
Hands of Kul
Warface
Lococycle
Fantasia Music Evolved
Tropico 5
Forza Horizon

Where were the PS3 titles? To all fans please don't say 2014 doesn't count because it does.

2015

Screamride
Risk
Goat Simulator
Ori and the Blind Forest
TombRaider

MS continues to support Xbox 360 while Sony has given up on PS3.

Halo2ODST23291d ago

Wtf are you talking about, listing exclusives doesn't mean sh*t, spartan assault ? Seriously ... terrible halo game.

DarkOcelet3292d ago

The Last Of Us made an amazing farewell to the PS3. And made Naughty Dog level up from level 99.99 to level 100.

ND should make an RPG game.

JMaine5183292d ago

The Last of Us was the icing on the cake for me. Xbox 360 has some great games and unmatched multiplayer experiences but I'm a sucker for storyline and Naughty Dog delivered some of the best stories with the Uncharted series and The Last of Us.

Pacific Rim Pinball comes to Pinball FX

This could be fun as they make great tables. Go big or go extinct. Prime your senses for a neural handshake and step into the cockpit of a Jaeger. It is on you to cancel the apocalypse when Pacific Rim Pinball comes to Pinball FX on May 16.

Mugen Souls Retro Review – Sexy Demon Space Adventure

Gary Green said: We have a juxtaposition of 2D and 3D visuals, flashy turn-based combat, quirky anime characters with cheeky dialogue with plenty of partial nudity; Yes, this is a Compile Heart JRPG. Whilst the engine is borrowed from Hyperdimension Neptunia mk2, Mugen Souls is more of a Disgaea spin-off. It’s not a strategy RPG as such, it merely sits within Disgaea’s ever-expanding universe (Multiverse? Netherverse? Your guess is as good as mine). You won’t find cameos though, since Mugen Souls is a franchise which aims to stand on its own two feet.

Looking Back At 2008, An Unbelievably Incredible Year Of Video Game Releases

Huzaifa from eXputer: "2008 was home to the likes of Call of Duty: World at War, Dead Space, GTA 4, Far Cry 2, Left 4 Dead, and many other hits, which is outright remarkable."

ChasterMies22h ago

Some of these low paid video game “news” writers weren’t born before 2007.

just_looken17h ago

Here here

Those that were around before 2000's i am sure are like me that think we entered a world of non readers or those that follow without question.

I can not wait to see fallout 3 a goty game even though it was about water with non content until you add the dlc/updates then you got the performance/crashing

CrimsonWing691d 9h ago

I don’t think anything can compare to 2023

lucasnooker1d 9h ago

1998 - the best year in gaming! Metal gear solid, crash bandicoot 3, medievil, half life, ocarina of time, thief, tenchu, resident evil 2, Spyro, tomb raider 3, oddworld abes exodus, banjo kazooie.

It was a different breed of a gaming era. You’ll never understand what it was like back then. The aura of gaming, it was different!

KyRo1d 8h ago (Edited 1d 8h ago )

I second this. Gaming was a lot more varied and fun than it is today. I'm 35 so getting on compared to some here but I got to see all the changes from NES up to now but I've never felt so disappointed in any generation than I have this current gen. I was expecting more from this generation rather than prettier versions of games that came before it. Game mechanics have become so refined that alot of games feel the same and has done for a while now.

Maybe it's time to have a break for a while. I love gaming but I don't feel I get much fun in the traditional sense out of it anymore.

CrimsonWing691d 8h ago (Edited 1d 8h ago )

Metal Gear Solid, Resident Evil 2, Abe’s Exodus, and Ocarina of Time are the only things from that list that I liked.

Here’s the 2023 game releases that I personally liked… and big releases that I didn’t care for:

- Dead Space Remake
- Wo Long Dynatsy
- Resident Evil 4 Remake
- Diablo 4
- Fire Emblem Engage
- Hogwarts Legcay
- Street Fighter 6
- Hi-Fi Rush
- Like a Dragon: Ishin
- Octopath Traveler 2
- Final Fantasy Pixel Remasters
- Final Fanatsy XVI (actually ended up not liking this, but it was still a big deal release)
- Baldur’s Gate 3
- Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon
- Lies of P
- Mortal Kombat 1
- Marvel’s Spider-Man 2
- Starfield (Ended up hating this one, but big release)
- Super Mario Bros. Wonder
- Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom (I’m an old-school Zelda fan, but didn’t really enjoy this game)
- Alan Wake 2

I mean, honestly I’ve never seen a year of major IP releases like that, ever.

Profchaos1d 5h ago (Edited 1d 5h ago )

Isn't it just a generational thing realistically.

I've been gaming since way back and I some of my favourite games go as far back as the late 80s for me each generation has a year or two of game changing releases one after another before an inevitable dry spell.

I kind of agree gaming had a different feel games hit different because we didn't have the internet nothing got spoiled and you really had to put in the effort to beat a puzzle which could set entire groups of people looking for a solution. But most importantly games were experimental and not as cookie cutter as today even basics like controls were not universal today r2 is shoot l2 is ads garunteed you can't deviate from that in a shooter back then it could of been square, R1 or R1 and circle nothing was standard.

But as time moves on a new generation picks up their controller they are going to be interested in different things that PS1 demo disc with the t Rex blew our primitive 16 bit brains back on launch but to kids today it's laughable.
The new gen of kids coming into to hobby seem to value different things to us there seems to be a huge focus on online play, streamers, gaming personalities, and social experiences, convience of digital downloads. To me I value none of that but that's ok like my parents not liking the band's I would listen to its just the natural cycle.

Gameseeker_Frampt20h ago

Just about every year in the 7th generation was great and something we most likely won't experience again.

2009 for example had Assassin's Creed 2, Batman: Arkham Asylum, Dragon Age: Origins, Uncharted 2, Halo 3: ODST, Killzone 2, Borderlands, Bayonetta, and Demon's Souls to name a few.

just_looken17h ago

It still amazes me we got over 7 rockstar games ps2/ps3 but 3 for the ps3/ps4/ps5

Dragon age 1-3 and mass effect 1-3 in 7ish years what a generation.
