@Jeff

Well said my friend. I wrote this article a long time ago (2007). And yes, I totally agree that 360 is aimed at 21 something college students while the PS3 user base is more evenly spread out.

But, I commented on another site: I think exclusives are what defines a console for what it is. Words about Sony bring images of God of War, MGS and UC to mind while 360 is all bout Gears of War, Halo,etc. etc. Your article is interesting in that it points out that without the games, the hardware is nothing. Now that I come to think of it, I wouldn’t have bought the 360/PS3 (I have bought) if it wasn’t for their particular games. But what IF one console had all the games? That in my opinion would spell disaster for the games industry, since there would be no competition. And as we all know, competition breeds innovation which translates into new game IPs.

I’d have to agree and dis-agree.
Exclusives are what makes the industry strive. It seems far-fetched, but it’s essentially the same as movie studios. If one studio had the ability to make anything we’d have no Bourne vs. Bond, Star Trek vs. Star Wars or even Pixar vs. Dreamworks. Everyone wants the cash flow and will push to be better than the next guy (of course, this leans more toward first/second party exclusives rather than 3rd party fare).
Yes, it would be nice for more cross platform games but, honestly, when did we ever have an even ground EVER. Even SNES/Genesis had differences is gameplay (Aladin).
Also, XBOX 360 is for hardcore shooters, sports and racing. This is why it’s #1 among the college group (that’s what they want). Wii is social and family oriented (party games, kids games, fitness games). PS3 is the most even ground IMO. I for one like that it’s not flooded with the same thing 40x over. I find it more…general in terms of taste IMO.
And for the record, I own PS3 and Wii. Most of my friends have 360’s

I’m not talking about the PS3, PS2, 360, Wii or any console in general. I’m talking about the overall brand perception. Nintendo has always been kid centric, PlayStation has been family centric while Xbox caters to college kids spewing F-bombs and fragging.

family centric? how? its got just as many hardcore games.. the only family centric console this gen is wii. its for kids and girls and old folks.. dont bash on the ps3 coz it simply ” does everything” like play bluray movies .. has the option to browse net.. bla bla bla.. that makes it more than just a game console.. but it is still at core a hardcore gaming console.. the exclusives are proof of that. resistance fall of man and resistance 2 arent really family games..

The 360 has always catered to a more mature hardcore shooter audience. The PS3 is family centric, at least IMO it is.

Hm. I think i like the exclusive stuff where each console where it is because honestly halo just dont fit the ps3 brand. neither does gears of war. but metal gears solid 4 does. and i dont think it fits the 360. Sorta like the PS is the home of jrpgs. or should be. For some reason.. ( its prlly because thruout ps 1 and ps 2 this was mostly the case ) that rings rite. And 360 is the home of all shooters.. hence gears of war and halo. Ofcourse each have their own attempt to change the image of their console.. like 360’s Lost Odyssey and PS’s KZ brand. So console owners are really getting all the genres theyd like to taste on their individual console. Besides exclusive rivalry is good for the gaming industry. otherwise we wouldnt see halo reach trying to 1 up KZ 2 which stands as the best looking console shooter to date.. hell plays the same too. .. IMO i like it how it is.

@ kaspario

Well that’s what blogs are for, isn’t it? Different perspectives and views are what make the blogging world so exciting.

Sony just dropped their price. And that’s why the PS3 outsold the 360 for the first time. Just like I said to Young Capwn, there should be exclusives, since it’s essential for the survival of a console. But wouldn’t it be great if you could play Gran Turismo on the 360? I mean that not all games should be console exclusives.

@ Young Capwn

FYI, Wii is the winning console. What I tried to say is that there should be exclusives, since it’s essential for the survival of a console. But wouldn’t it be great if you could play Gran Turismo on the 360?

Another “gamer” having his views on how to do business. First, you lose all credibility when you say that Sony should again drop price. I mean, you sound like you’re gonna be satisfied only when they start giving the console away… Maybe it’s time you stop repeating the same line that has been said since november ‘06 about ps3 price…

And then, as a consumer, it’s not always a good thing to take your desires for realities… Like Capwn said, what would be the point of owning a console or another is every game what available for each console? Fanboysim would be even worse over the net if every console had the same games. Those kids are already arguing about petty stuff, they’d have even pettier stuff to argue about (like frame rate, graphical effects and the like instead of things like “Halo owns Killzone, noob!”) if they could all play the same games on different machines…

And since it seems to make so much sense on the business standpoint, why not ask everyone to feed on corn or potatoes since it’ll make so much sense on a business point: less resources spend growing other stuff, a solution that would, without a doubt, be more economically efficient?

I want to FU*KING KILL YOU

are you insane? what would be the point of buying diffrent consoles if all the same games where on them all? If ALL exclusives where on ALL consoles WII would be the winning console.

You are a tard, forreal go kill yourself.
