Default THIS is whats wrong with the local gaming scene

everyone thinks a ps3 is better than a 360 which is currently in terms of sales and games totally wrong ! The graphics aren't much diff frm a 360 and the psps ! i have both a psp and a ds i prefer my ds why can't people see how awesome a ds is ? it's not for kids like most people think ! And the ds also owns the psp in sales EVERYWHERE except i think sg. I mean when i walked into sim lim the other day only ps3 on display not a single 360 in sight or a ds wth ? i love playstation as much as any other fellow i have all of sony's consoles since ps 1 and getting a ps3 when MGS 4 comes out but i think this country is totally oblivious abt the gaming world. I mean why are you still playing counter strike ?! thats like so old school upgrade man ! turn your lan shop into something respectable instead of games created 8 friggin years ago ! play something else and advance in the gaming world ! Also has anyone playing maple thinking it's the best game ever or for that matter a good game EVER played a good game before ? it's tons of grinding and super mario 2d jumping (done badly) plus pressing ctrl. Get a real game maple is down right low i fell asleep playing the beta i did ! it's an insult to all the games in the world ! Good suppourt for the ds though ! but much more can be done. I may seemm alittle harsh but it's the reality i just want to raise awareness of the situation. sorry if you got angry ! :p

to those who need help here's some of what you SHOULD be playing now

pc
world in conflict ( surprise ! warcraft isn't the only rts game)

call of duty 4 ( you still shoot people only with better graphics and the ability to choose weapons to suit your playstyle and evolve those aspects ! )

bioshock ( doom3 is so 5000 years ago)

the witcher ( hey ! an rpg thats NOT final fantasy ! )

quake wars enemy territory ( online multiplayer shooting !)

xbox 360
bioshock ( it's incredible fun and deep storyline is fantastic MUST GET ! )

the orange box ( 5 games in a box ! good ones too !)

assasin's creed (ok to me but might work for you)

halo3 ( if you're into it personally halo was not really fun)

call of duty 4 ( game of the year ! nuff said)

ps3 (suggested i haven't played some but they seem nice)
warhawk ( flying around shooting ard !)

heavenly sword ( a shameless god of war rip off but still pretty cool)

call of duty 4 (DUH)

ninja gaiden black ( VERY hard but cool !)

ratchet and clank ( NO just because it's a cartoon charachter dosen't mean it's for kids)

uncharted drake's fortune ( tomb raider the guy version)

psp
mgs portable ops plus ( MGS online ! thats sweet enough !)

logan's shadow (a decent fps for the psp)

killzone liberation( really fun and challenging !)

crisis core( it's an ff game DUH)

silent hill origins (scary ! if you didn't play the original silent hill yet )

ds
awesome suppourt for this system so far but still some non awareness of how sick this thing is.

Elite Beat Agents / the jap version i can't spell it lol (FRIGGIN AWESOME it should be against the law to have a ds and not own this game BUY IT !)

zelda (it's a zelda game ! it's cute creative and fun !)

phoenix wright trails and tribulations ( not for everyone but those who like murder mysteries and court room drama should go for it or even if you like anime !)

cooking mama 2 cooking with friends ( pretty cool if you like this stuff)

animal crossing ( plant trees ! fish ! and catch bugs ! according to season ! invite friend sto your town ! girls will love this)

FEEL FREE TO ADD TO THE LIST ! i don't own a wii but feel free to add i want one though lol

i agree i'll get ps for MGS4 but you should check out little big planet as well i saw it at song gallery looks cool ! 360 has those two rpsgs i told you abt as exclusive and cross platform game wise 360 is cheaper and has more active online action oh and bioshock is only for 360 and pc lots of pc games hav 360 ports nowadays

Haha... i agree from what you said... most of the games on ps3... can be play on xbox 360 too...

PS3 hardware may be better... but the games are not yet up to that level or grahpic... which makes ps3 pretty similar as xbox 360.

Well don't think he is trying to decide or define what people should play or what... but pointing out the goods/bads about both console... and why you should pick that over the other.

You are just a 360 fanboy. ADMIT it. Who says PS3 does not have JRPGs? This year the only JRPGs for the 360 is.....Lost Odyssey(exclusive) and LR(PS3 has it too). PS3 has FFXIII(exclusive,not confirmed this year), FFVersusXIII(exclusive,next year), White Knight Story(exclusive, this year), LR(this year), Eternal Sonata is also coming to the PS3 this year, and many more. For FPS this year, the PS3 has Killzone 2(BIGGEST GAME OF THE YEAR with awesome graphics and all) and Resistance 2(another big game), all exclusive. MGS4 is huge mind you, and don't underestimate the fanbase of Playstation.

But it's a fact that Singaporeans love Sony products than MS and Nintendo Products. And it's a fact that this year the PS3 is gonna pwn the 360 big time. That will make you eat back your words. Don't bitch around that you should get a 360 in better terms of gaming. And almost all games that is multiplatform? Why don't you get a PC and see how many 360 games appear on the PC. PS3 exclusive games NEVER appear on the PC and the 360 FYI. Look at Gears, exclusive to the 360? 1 year later, came to the PC, and i'm playing it on the PC too. And I'm gonna predict that Halo 3 is gonna come to the PC this year. Wanna bet? With FREE online gaming on the PC, rather need to pay on the 360.

And Narutard, you are saying he's pointing out the goods/bads about both console? He's saying all the negative things about the PS3 and good things about the 360, pointing out good/bads? LOL
