You know, one thing I'm happy about with PS3's exclusive fall/winter lineup...

[Steelmaker]

Is that there's a lot of balance in the line up. There's not a huge emphasis on one genre.

Uncharted: Drake's Fortune: An action, platform, puzzle type of game.

LAIR: An epic aerial and ground combat game atop a huge dragon.

Heavenly Sword: 3rd person, epic, story driven action game.

Haze: New IP first person shooter.

Ratchet and Clank: Action/Platforming.

Little Big Planet: Action/Platform/Puzzle/Creative game.

Echochrome: Puzzle.

Warhawk: Aerial and ground combat mmo game.

Folklore: An action/rpg game.

Unreal Tournament 3: first person shooter.

Gran Turismo Prologue: Racing Simulator

Wipeout HD Futuristic Hover Racing

To me, that is a very balanced, very solid lineup for the holidays! I would've liked to see a couple of RPG's and maybe a survival horror game. Otherwise I'd say there's something there for everyone!

yuup....I notice the 360 is shooter heavy with their lineup....

PS3 does have a strong balance of games...

[Maximus]

Supposedly Haze is changing from timed-exclusive to full exclusive pending sales of PS3s over Xmas.

As was the orginial Xbox which is why the Playstation was and still is the superior brand!

[u_nick]

reading up on Uncharted this morning, it's still easily my most anticipated game. I cant wait.

A bunch of other stuff in that list i'll be going for as well.

[darkpoet25]

I think the only game the 360 has going for it this Christmas is Halo 3. Other than that one game I have yet to see anything that compares to the PS3 line-up.

hey guys, don't forget about Home! http://www.vgchartz.com/forum/thread...96&start=0#end mass effect got a disappointing review too. oh no! i thought this game looked way overhyped and that there was no way in hell they could do 100s of planets with the graphics they kept showing off and claiming how great gameplay would be all in 7 GBs, Bioshock needed to put this on a blu-ray disc!!!! so if mass effect aint hot, its all in the hands of halo 3 as blue dragon and bioshock are already out.

The xbox will always be extremely shooter-heavy. Their top exlusives are all shooters. That being said, I can see the PS3 having a very strong shooter lineup to match.

I definitely see the playstation3 having a more balanced lineup. Ive pre-ordered Heavenly Sword and Warhawk, and ill definitely get Folklore and gran turismo too.

On my maybe list would be Lair and maybe little big planet.

Has anyone heard ANYTHING about FF13? I know its wishful thinking, but that would massively boost sales of the PS3.

Is the 360 even powerful enough to run a port of Haze without the game being severely hamstrung? And can it even fit onto a DVD-9?

[Shin-Ra]

The Eye of Judgment + PlayStation Eye camera + stand + mat
Hot Shots Golf 5
SingStar
SOCOM: Confrontation
Everyday Shooter
PixelJunk Racers
PixelJunk Towerdefense
PixelJunk Ecorhythm
LocoRoco Cocoreccho
Time Crisis 4

..Added to your list (I only picked out the seemingly better quality stuff you missed, there's plenty more exclusives)

12 original IP's
10 existing IP's

A good mix of new and old faces.

thats what im thinking too. ubisoft probably went to MS and said listen this is how the game is going to look on the ps3, this is how the game is going to look on the 360, what do you want to do? MS saw a huge difference and didn't want to be embarassed, so they said blame exclusivity on something else, like rising ps3 sales.

I don't think it is anything technical at fault with the X360. Just that they don't fancy competing with Halo 3.

The sales of Haze on the X360 won't be that great after Halo 3 is released, I think the sales of all games are going to go down once Halo 3 is out. Most people I know bought the X360 as a Halo machine, once it comes out, I think a lot of gamers are going to stop buying games and just play the shit out of Halo 3.

[u_nick]

oh yeah, a bunch of PSN titles I am looking forward too, especially the PixelJunk stuff * Everyday shooter

Only 360 exclusive I am looking forward to is the Naruto game. Naruto fans will buy it, but they arent exactly record selling games.

[Luis_A51]

Speaking of PSN games, the 2 im definitely going to buy are:

Street fighter 2 HD remix
Puzzle fighter 2 HD remix

both are 1080p, and both are fantastic games even without the new graphics

its not the specs of the machine, its dvd9. look at the 360 games they are either pretty, with short or bad gameplay or long/goodgameplay with bad graphics. halo 3 will be focusing a lot on online, which doesn't take up a whole lot of disc space, thatlly be its saving grace, but camapaign won't be hot. Trust me you will never see a game on the 360 unless its multiple discs that is long, drawn out, good gameplay, and pretty graphics (gt5, mgsiv, drakes fortune, etc.) it can't fit on the disc.

[Amon37]

Also I thought UT3 was a timed fall/winter exclusive.

[Shin-Ra]

The threads all about fall/winter exclusives.

[jorg]

i dident relize all these games are coming for ps3 this fall. makes me wanna buy 2 ps3s just to play them all lol but seriously only way it could be better is if mgs4 and ff13 were included

You really sound like someone that hasn't played the 360.

I've played a ton of games and for the most part they've all looked great. I also haven't really found any to be too short.

Why people need to trash talk the other console is beyond me - and if you are going to do it, at least do it with things that are accurate.

Oblivion, Gears of War, Rainbow Six Vegas, PGR3 and Crackdown are just some examples of some games that looked good and had plenty of game play.



I think the only titles in the PS3 lineup that interest me and are titles I will buy are Lair and Warhawk. Maybe GT - I did like the demo.
