Holiday Gaming Guide: What to Buy for the Discriminating Gamer - PlayStation 3

From Blogcritics:

"The PlayStation 3 has struggled to gain a market foothold in its first year since launching worldwide last fall; price concerns, development delays and lost exclusives have plagued the electronics giant. This holiday season Sony is coming out swinging, with massive price cuts on their large 80GB model and a newly introduced $399 40GB model, they are ready to enter the ring again with a second wind. To further improve their chances, they are slated to launch a number of notable exclusives (Uncharted, Ratchet & Clank, Haze, Eye of Judgement) in the next month that are sure to attract a lot of new consumers to the PS3 this year. It is becoming a good time to be a PS3 owner and this holiday season a lot of gamers will be very happy."

Lame
JC, the original story had an equal expose of both consoles. your link and headline is only for ps3. Why? IS flamebait for fanboys. Lame.

Neurotoxin6024d ago

No life and no girlfriend..... But its ok because HE has three Ps3`s.

karlostomy6023d ago (Edited 6023d ago )

The original article was about both consoles. It was balanced and gave information for both. Yet the report on N4g HAD to take sides.
Why did you only quote the PS3 link, JC?

And what's more, the headline is just meant to annoy 360ers and is geekpr0n for PS3ers..

That's just getting a bit common here. Flamebait. Pathetic.
call that a story JC? I was expecting more from you.

jcgamer6023d ago (Edited 6023d ago )

you don't even know what you're talking about...this is part 2 of a most likely 3 part story...the 360 story, part 1, was already submitted to N4G...part 3 will probably be about the Wii...what makes this article flamebait? Because it is an objective, positive look at the PS3...and Neurotoxin better be referring to the picture cause he sure as hell ain't referring to me...I turn down more 'action' than most guys get...you act like I care if you are disappointed...I don't write the articles...

jcgamer6023d ago (Edited 6023d ago )

Because saying you expect more from me means that I post good articles, which I feel that I do...I actually wanted to submit both articles, but the 360 one was written earlier and already submitted...I try to remain as fair and objective as possible on N4G and I am doing the best I can...when Mass Effect starts having a wealth of articles next month I'll be back to being accused of being a 360 "fanboy"...too funny...

jcgamer6023d ago

I'm here because I love games and being a gamer...this article was about a wealth of good games that happen to be exclusive or nonexclusive to the PS3...that's how I see it...

karlostomy6023d ago (Edited 6023d ago )

For someone who doesn't care what i think you sure gave me a lot of replies. But hey i like that. Repartee! Yippee!

I noticed my 'ignore by' list has increased. lol funny what happens when i say what needs to be said. At least i don't sit on the fence and thereby accumulate bubbles. lol...

OK enough gibberish
JC. On the whole your posts and articles are excellent.

BUT the gist of MY comment was: why didnt you post the correct heading (See below) which would clearly indicate that your story is only part of a greater whole. As it was.... sorry, it just is another PS3 fan/flame headline.

Other articles have done this correctly already eg:
http://www.n4g.com/industry...
"top ten developers of all time - #6 Electronic arts"

Consider then, the flamebait version of the above headline
"Top developer of all time - Electronic arts"

and now consider yours:
"Holiday Gaming Guide: What to Buy for the Discriminating Gamer - PlayStation 3"

Perhaps your headline should have been:
"Holiday Gaming Guide: What to Buy for the Discriminating Gamer - Part 2/3: Playstation 3".

I hope you see the point i am making, JC.

jcgamer6023d ago

so disregard the rant N4G's...lol...just a misunderstanding...

Kuest6022d ago

Very well... As you wish, JC.

jackfatal6023d ago

people always use this example "which came first the chicken or the egg"??
isnt it obvious? the chicken makes eggs first but then the cycle continue!
its like saying who came first adam and even or their children!!
i think the egg and chicken example is a good question for children but not normal adult!!

ruibing6023d ago

Hard to argue that its right now the best time to buy one with all the best exclusives coming out and many more to follow early next year.

bluebrad19746023d ago

If a gamer wants the best games, they need a 360, not a ps3.

the worst6023d ago (Edited 6023d ago )

XBL = XBOXLAG
$50 YEAR WHAT A JOKE
GOT 2 SEND BACK
2 TIMES A YEAR 4 REPAIRS
OK OK YALL GOT HALO 2.5

SofaKingReetodded6023d ago

desperate much?? your 3FIXME had it's 15 minutes and now it's time for the King to take the spotlight.

KidMakeshift6023d ago

Uncharted and Haze are it's only exclusives this holiday season. White Knight Story is supposedly coming out in Japan in December.
Assassin's Creed, Call Of Duty 4, Guitar Hero, and Rock Band are on both the PS3 and 360.

I'm not bashing in anyway. I just wish they pushed Lair and Heavenly Sword to November/December to better sales and give the developers some extra time to fix the minor blimishes that plaque those games.

Next year could be huge if Final Fantasy 13 comes out. Grand Theft Auto 4 and Metal Gear Solid 4 are coming out in Spring, but could be pushed to fall.

If this is true, I hope it leads to Morrowind getting remade next.

-Foxtrot5d ago

I thought they’d go for Morrowind first to be honest but this is a welcoming surprise to tide us over before ES6

TheColbertinator5d ago

Well said. Exactly my thoughts too.

Tedakin5d ago

Unreal Engine isn't efficient for open world games, so I question the reliability of this story.

isarai5d ago

Yeah, 1st thing that came to my mind too, although i CAN see it being likely for ease if use, but it's not going to run very well if so

Tacoboto5d ago (Edited 5d ago )

I'd wonder if it would just be exploiting Unreal for graphics but the underlying engine/logic is still the original framework.

Like how we had the graphical remakes of Halo Anniversary, Tomb Raider I-III, and Demon's Souls.

Could also end up a disaster like the GTA Trilogy

mkis0075d ago

I have heard that too but even if it's modified isnt arkham knight UE?

Fragslayer4d ago

"remake will run both an Unreal Engine 5 project and the old Oblivion project. For instance, new graphics are rendered in the Unreal Engine 5 project, but most of the gameplay and physics are still done on the original Oblivion engine"

So with this logic it'll run just fine using UE5 tool sets on top of Gamebryo's engine or maybe even Creation Engine, who knows.

Hopefully modders can fix the aged combart in this game if this is true. Enemies leveling up with you broke and defeated the whole purpose of leveling up.

Fragslayer4d ago

Yeah it could use some tuning for sure hence the need for a Remake not a Remaster. I'm surprised it's even a conversation within them group which makes me skeptical it's Oblivion. I wouldn't say they shouldn't level up at all though maybe just a leave them a couple levels behind to appease the masses.

Why MW 2019 is still the best looking Call of Duty to date

MW 2019 is five years old at this point and on previous gen hardware, but it is still the best looking Call of Duty game to date.

MW was an excellent videogame. They messed up Spec Ops big time, but aside from this it was a huge step in the right direction initially. Most notably, at launch it seemed to come from a very cohesive creative vision that was felt across gameplay, to story to art style/visual direction. It was also very notably written by prominent ex-Naughty Dog guys that quit almost immediately before release.

That COMPLETELY dissolved through post-launch content and the full pivot to a "cross-mode" narrative that completely obliterated the cohesion in overall story direction. Warzone then "became" the new face of Call of Duty and the franchise completely removed itself from anything remotely creatively "good". It is a pure money machine, so I kinda get why they're doing it....but I personally completely lost interest.

I would love to see Infinity Ward move off CoD and get to make their own product with full control. They clearly have some massive talent in their ranks but it's perverted by Activision's corporate interests.

If they have Skyrim number one, list has lost all credibility.
