PS3 vs 360 in exclusives

Re: PS3 vs 360 in exclusives

Sheesh, I guess no one even read this post.

Why? It's the best baseball game on the market by far. It would be like if Madden was a PS3 or a 360 exclusive, it would sell systems on it's own.

Sorry but it wouldn't be nothing like Madden being exclusive. Not even close IMO. Is it the best baseball game? Yes. However since when did quality matter when talking about best seller games. Madden comes to mind.

Yeah me either. Heck when I was saying 05 version was a very good game no one paid any attention and all I heard was "that series sucks".
Now 2 years later it will sell a 600.00 system? Don't think so. IF there was some other games I really wanted to play (The Show I really want to play) I would be more inclined to get a PS3. So hopefully whenever I get a PS3 there will still be some leagues going here.

I guess you should take into account the entry cost, candy. A $120 PS2 plus $40 MLB game vs. at least a $500 PS3 and a $60 game!

Yowza!

All I know is... I'm doing like the 360 motto and "jump-in!"

Not only on OS, but there are many other forums that people bought a PS2 just to play MLB'06.

You guys do make a point about a $500-$600 machine won't go as fast as a $120 system would for 1 game.

Exactly about the price point. I admit I did buy a PS2 just for The Show. and at the time the PS2 was around 129.00 and I picked up a couple other games also that I had wanted to play.
No way I do that with a 5 or 600.00 system.

Re: PS3 vs 360 in exclusives

The masses that Sony is depending on don't know the difference between MLB 06, and MLB 2k6....especially with the large amount of goodwill the 2k brand built up in the 2k vs. Live massacre. I expect The Show to be great on PS3, but if 2k is decent, and the Show is still available on PSP, I'm good for 07 baseball.

On a coincidental note, the PS3 is selling below cost on E-Bay now, and I took it back to the store for a refund today. You should have seen their faces. My wife said we could keep it if i really wanted it as a X-mas/B-day gift, and I was reeeeeeeeal close to taking her up on it...I really like the PSP interactivity, and I'd love to be able to d/l some old PSX favs on my handheld, but I think I'll wait til more stuff is out for it sometime in 08.

I'm prolly gonna be sorry when Lair drops because that looks nasty.

Don't hate on the BK games. The Bumper car hockey game on XBOX Live is fun as hell. Pocket racer is fun too especially racing 5 of your friends online. They happend to be only $3.99 too. Show me a game that is cheap and that is fun.

The BK sneak game, I haven't touched. Kinda too weird for me, but I'll give it a try when I geta round it.

Re: PS3 vs 360 in exclusives

Now you're being ridiculous.... you're comparing a sub-par first party game to what some argue is the best baseball available.

I just don't think The Show is among the MGS, Halo, Madden etc.

Hmm considering Madden and The Show represent different sports its hard to make a comparison. But if your judging each on graphics, gameplay, animation, sound(play by play) on current gen, I would say The Show wins in each category and if its 06 the show vs Madden07 on 360 then The Show wins all except graphics (because of the jaggies) in my opinion

Re: PS3 vs 360 in exclusives

IMO any game can be considered a system seller. Granted there are certain types of games that move more systems at one time. I consider Ridge Racer 7 a system seller because i'm a huge fan of the series and I bought a PS3 to play that game. Someone else may have bought Resistance because they wanted to play that game.

MLB 07 is a system seller because a) it has built a track record of being one of the best baseball games made in recent years. b) it has a loyal Sony fan base that has purchased the game in the past on the PS2 and now the PSP. Since the Sony MLB series gets released yearly it will probably sell a lot more systems than people give it credit for.

This is one game i'm definitely buying this Spring.

N/p agreeing with ya there... but it can still move systems...

It amazes me as to how blind people are that a single game can move systems no matter what the price of the system is.

True, especially if you consider that The Show will likely be released for PS2 (if they want to sell games).
