Nintendo lead from the front 1:19pm on 16 Jul 2008 "Despite the hyperbole, there is not a single game, in my opinion, on the PS3 that truly looks like it surpasses the technical limitations of the Xbox 360"

while i agree to an extent i think Killzone 2 should be the title to show what the PS3 can do. MGS4 would not be the same title on the 360 in my opinion, i think its technically brilliant and makes use of blu rays capacity to the full. Even games like Uncharted (released in the PS3s first year) showed immediate results that were on par with 360 games 2-3 years into the 360s lifecycle.

Regarding Nintendo i cant honestly say i like one of their products. Watching their E3 presentation was laughable! With a lot of these motion elements the novelty wears off, sometimes you just want to sit down and play a high quality game with a great story and characters and great graphics.

Microsoft stole a lot of elements already in the marketplace , something they have done with their operating systems also. They take ideas from others and pass them on as their own. Aside from Gears of War 2 and the announcement of FF13, what else is there to shout about in gaming terms?

I thought this years E3 was disappointing , i think we should just let Apple make a games console and how them how its done.
E3 gets set for gaming 9:12pm on 14 Jul 2008 Hi Darren

what do you make of the shock announcement that Final Fantasy 13, a long held Sony exclusive, has now gone multi platform and will release the same time as the PS3.

Devastating blow for PS3 fans as it seems Sony find it impossible to hold onto valuable assets like Grand Theft Auto and Final Fantasy.

Personally i think its a huge blow to the PS brand and a great achievement for Microsoft who seem to be able to deliver the goods to their customers. Although a lot of their E3 presentation was robbed (avatars, singstar like "Lips" and a buzz style trivia game and also an Eye Toy style game) from the PS3 and the Wii.

Sad day for PS3 owners who are bound to be livid at Sonys inability to deliver. I know personally a lot of FF fans bought a PS3 knowing that FF13 was a solid exclusive, they are now facing the prospect of their game on a console a few hundred pounds cheaper.

Tomorrow is make or break for Sonys financial outlook for 2008. There just HAS to be big announcement BIG news or im afraid its looking bleak for the PS3.
