It wouldn't be accurate to say that the sky is falling for Microsoft's one and only gaming console, the 360, but it may be time to look at what the company is doing right... and where it's going wrong. The Sony PlayStation 3 is beginning to chip away at the 360's lead in both software and hardware sales in the US, and that system only seems to be picking up steam. In contrast, the 360 doesn't seem to have much real momentum these days.
While it's hard to find ways for Microsoft to get its mojo back, we can easily identify a few problem areas that are becoming clear as the 360 ages. These are the weaknesses in Microsoft's strategy that have to be addressed before the system can hope to get its groove back. Let's take a look.
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.
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.
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."
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.
the 360 is experiencing the BTK murder
they posted really blatant anti-ps3 articles for them to make this article is really telling.
aside from that thier second most used article is flamebait articles to garner hits just dont give them the hits.
This article is biased and has no credible facts. The PS3 is slowly dying away because nobody wants an overpriced bluray player that maybe can play some bad games at 2 fps. Bluray is a dead format anyways. I walked into my local Best Buy and saw shelves full of HD DVD and Bluray was having a clearence sale. HAHA, so much for it winning the format war.
The 360 is the best selling console (and the best console) and will continue to grow its lead while the PS3 falls. I think we will see more and more devs abandon the PS3 because they realize how much it holds them back. And more and more consumers will realize how useless the PS3 is and buy the 360.
this article speaks the truth about the games for each platfrom -
"Microsoft has spent so much time trying to match Sony's past glory in terms of game selection that it finds itself somewhat at a loss now that Sony has managed to keep some games as exclusives, at the same time it's developing all news ones"
& Live isnt all that it's cracked out to be - "Yes, Xbox Live is better. But how much better? There are large numbers of gamers out there who simply will not pay money for online play and are more than happy with Sony's offerings. So what if you can't send a voice message across games? Sony's newly-launched in-game XMB adds a ton of functionality, and the Trophies it brings seem to be gaining popularity"
It will groove with a nice litte price drop...and of course..gears...fable 2....halo wars....it will happen...but ps3 is getting the edge on blu-ray and also LBP and resistance 2...
I would take Fable 2 over any game coming out..or tie it with the new Star wars...im going to be so EVIL in both games...MUHAHHAHA MUAHAHHA
