Default Re: Pick the \"next gen\" console I should purchase

You know you can buy outside of the established franchises once in a while. I think most people don't realize that everyone who made Final Fantasy good are off at another company now. I mean brands have a powerful effect on all of us, but just saying "I'm gonna ignore Mass Effect and Lost Odyssey because I've never heard those names before, I'm waitin' for my Final Fantasy" is a little sheepish.

And um, all three Metal Gears went to the Gamecube last cycle. Did I miss a press release where someone said MGS4 is an exclusive forever? I'd put the likelyhood of a 360 release at 1000 percent, even if it takes a couple months.

i love how 360 owners downplay the next 12 months in which the ps3 is gunna come out with numerous must have games by saying " dont worry guys, we'll get all those games eventually "

the truth is the 360 is dying already in pretty much every country except the US.... give these next-gen consoles 2 years and well see the same trends we saw with the original x-box vs ps2 "battle"

Seriously? You are going to recommend a game system to someone on the basis of "the ps3 is gunna[sic] come out with numerous must have games"? Fact is there is very little in the PS3 game lineup worth having. And before you accuse me of being an Xbox fanboy, please understand I am a gaming fanboy. I've owned various iterations of the Nintendo console, PS1, Dreamcast, both Xboxes and have been gaming on PCs since the King's Quest days. There is no way in hell I'd tell anyone they should pick a PS3 over an XBox right now. I imagine eventually I will pick up a PS3. Once those "must have" games are released and I figure out whether they are worth a [censored].
