A PS3 Without Any Games

It's not. It's a completely valid point between PS3 and Xbox360.
PS3's best games are all cross-platform, all of which are better on Xbox360 (bar DiRT, but that sucks). The PS3 has one good exclusive game in Uncharted.

Saying PC and PS3 is completely null and void as the Xbox360 holds its own with Mass Effect, PGR3, PGR4, Kameo, Dead Rising, Burnout Revenge, Guitar Hero 2, Hitman:Blood Money, Dead or Alive 4, Viva Pinata, Saints Row, Forza Motorsport 2.

None of which I believe are on the PC or PS3 and all of which are very good games. Those are just off the top of my head.
The PS3 has... Uncharted.

That's why it's okay to say it about the PS3, not the Xbox360. It's an argument that keeps coming up, continues to be flawed and wreaks of desperation to defend the PS3 at any length.

On top of that the PC has recieved games such as Lost Planet, Test Drive Unlimited and Gears of War later than the Xbox360.

Not only that, but the PC has never been a competitor for consoles as they are different, always have been, never have they been compared for exclusives (even in the past when games have appeared on the PC that were on console and still called 'exclusive') but suddenly with the Xbox360 it's okay to class it as a competitor.
The industry don't even class the PC as a console competitor, nor even do these forums by keeping the sections seperately, but again, it backs up the extremely flawed argument.

That's why I expect better from you. You're normally a very good and fair poster, but you're lowering yourself by using that 'argument'. Sorry.

I know what your saying and using that 'argument' is not like me, it just annoys me when people say the PS3 has no games. There is a very nice selection now, even if you have a 360, you can't get games like R&C, Uncharted, Heavenly Sword, Resistance, Tekken, Warhawk, Gran Turismo 5p, Motorstorm, Unreal Tournament 3 (yet) on the 360, so saying it has no games is stupidity.

For every DoA there is a Tekken, for every PGR/Forza there is a GT, for every Mass Effect there is a Final Fantasy, its what franchises you enjoy, I know what I enjoy and thats why I sold my 360 and went the PS3 route.

I will say one thing though, I was more bored waiting for games to come out on my launch 360 than I have been on my PS3 (Though playing some old PS2 games has helped wonders there) thats just me though, everyone is different, and everyone is entitled to an opinion, and mine is that the PS3 is a fine console, with a fine selection of games, there is a lot of PS3 hate on these forums, and I dont see why. I am currently in a position where I have way TOO many games to get through and I can't see that changing anytime soon.
 
Nokkon, There are a lot more good games on the PS3 than uncharted. You just don't like the other ones

You seem to see yourself and your opinion as the standard for which other people need to attain to :p

I didn't say there were no games, I just said those available are pretty average and not at a level I would dub good enough. Unreal Tournament is obviously a AAA game, but it's not out here yet and R&C didn't do it for me though I'll go back and give it another go.

False.

Stop trotting out garbage.

It has 3 shoddy conversions of already average games, The orange box, skate and the darkness.

Boo hoo.

I'm not sure UT3 is AAA yet, Its damn good, but I haven't invested enough time into it yet to say for sure. The vehicle controls suck I know that much :p

Actually, it's not garbage. Go read some websites. As for those 3 being average games... the vast majority will disagree with you there.
Boo Hoo. Child.
 
theres RFOM and Motorstorm, Ninja Gaiden, heavenly Sword, Warhawk. All games that are good games.

Yes not all of those are AAA, although I would say Warhawk is. But that's just my opinion there.

RFOM, Since playing GOW quite a bit, does pale in comparison. BUT it's still a good game, which is an exclusive.

Ratchet and Clank I love to pieces!

Games are never going to be clean and cut awesome or terrible, You are always going to have people who love them and hate them. Which is why saying only 1 game is good on a console is fine, Aslong as you remember theres a good chance you're in the minority in thinking so.

After all that, I must say, Old PS3 ports suck. I've always thought so. But the exclusives available on the console, Are getting a good reception.

Apart from Lair.....:o :D

I love motorstorm, nothing comes close to it on the 360 for the style that motorstorm represents on the PS3

Nothing comes close and it's a good game. Nothing better than good though. I spent most of yesterday playing it again and it's very repetative and not varied enough.
Definitely a good laugh but I find Burnout much more amusing and edge of your seat.

I'm hoping for a lot more from Motorstorm 2 though.

It's their console and are ultimately responsible for the quality of games (or lack of) that are released on it.

No they are not, if a developer doesn't want to make a game for PS3 then that isn't for sony to tell them they must. Developers, unless owned by Sony, or contracted to Microsoft for example, can do what they please. Sony have no say in the matter.

What does that even mean? :) 'Style that Motorstorm represents on the PS3'?? Is that another way of saying great graphics, lacking game play?

No it's saying that no 360 game has buggies, trucks, bikes, quads and rally cars all competing against each other, in mud, sand and gravel, all at the same time. It is unique in its on right and unique to PS3, although it's a little shallow it does give you something you don't get on 360.
 
Aye they are, it's a good game all round, not great but atleast different from anything else, which was the point of McManicMan I belive.

Sony aren't innocent in it, Sony are known for not being software experts, all 3 consoles have been hard to code for and the PS3 being the hardest of all with the new architecture. Developers will learn it though because they have to.
