lol thanks for clearing that up, LaughingMan. I'm a bit 'ignant of the PS3 exclusives because of the past ridiculous expense of the system before the price was dropped, so I've had a bit of a bias against it :P. That's what I get for not doing my research!

And I'm pretty defensive for the PS3 at times.

I wasn't trying to prove anyone wrong or anything, and definitely not saying that the Xbox sucks, but the perception that the PS3 is a P.O.S. has to be left back with 2006-07. Yeah, I've been skeptical in the past, and pissed too. I bought the uber-expensive $600 model and the first round of games really didn't impress me much (except Resistance and Ninja Gaiden Sigma :D). Sony has had its head up its own ass for a while that they were cocky and arrogant, but after the backlash they've become a lot more appreciative and humble (in my opinion, based on the 08-09 E3's with Jack Trenton).

Price was always a valid issue, online gaming can have been brought up and I would have tipped my hat in defeat, but exclusive games not existing on the PS3 is a massive (but strangely popular) misconception that I wanted to clear up.

The PS3 really does have an impressive library. A lot of the games that sold the Xbox have now been ported, the major games are on both systems, and many developers are showing the PS3 love with really, REALLY great games.

If anybody has any doubts about the PS3, here's the challenge: Rent a PS3 (I think blockbuster rents them??) and also rent any of the following games:

- Uncharted 2 (Action/adventure) <-- ESSENTIAL!!
- Killzone 2 (FPS)
- LittleBigPlanet (Family-fun/platforming)
- Valkyria Chronicles (RPG/Strategy/Anime)
- Metal Gear Solid 4 (Action/Stealth).
- Motorstorm (off-road racing)
- Ratchet and Clank (family/action)

You'll see the PS3 in a new light, promise ;)

But I really blame the media more than anybody else for the misconceptions. Zimes mentioned 'bought reviews' and these are really easy to pick out.

Prime example: PENNY ARCADE (no, i'm not linking to them out of my meager fanboy protest)

In a recent bloggy update they do with their comments, they had a list of games coming out on all the consoles. God of War 3 was on the list, and he added the quip: "Finally, a reason to buy a PS3."

Funny how that works, because they said the exact same thing in the past regarding: Uncharted, Valkyria Chronicles, and Killzone 2. They even praised the online PS3 games 'super stardust hd' and 'flOw', but now it's back to "no reason to buy a PS3"?

An innocent slip, or bias? Your call.

I think CAD-online is more biased than anything against the PS3. I remember one comic where he was going to make a ps3 robot but decided that he didnt want a gay robot.

I think this guy constantly bashes the PS consoles.

And yes, the PS3 has some real exclusive STINKERS too.

- Haze (HALO killer? Cold day in Hell)
- Lair (Might as well steer the dragons with the controller lodged in your asshole)
- Genji: Days of the Blade (GIANT ENEMY CRAB!! HIT HIS WEAKPOINT FOR MAXIMUM DAMAGE!!)
- SOCOM: US Navy Seals Confrontation (bad online, i think, never played it)
- Untold Legends: Dark Kingdom (a next-gen version of Gauntlet (old school arcade))

Probably a lot more, but I think those are the most notoriously bad exclusive PS3 games...

Yeah, unless it's something he can bash, he never speaks at all about the PS3 it seems. He did mention that he liked Uncharted: Drake's Fortune, though.

I remember the comic where he was locked inside the game store and he made a blanket out of PS3 launch titles because they weren't good for anything else. That actually made me chuckle. Then I remembered that I bought the launch console... :(

Buying a system is basically like enlisting
