I write Aaron Greenbergs PRs, so Ill tell you what is coming.

Q: So what do you have to say about Sony's Playstation 3 online service hitting 10 million accounts, which equals that of Xbox Live, yet in a shorter amount of time.

Greenberg: Well, what we've found out about our Live to their Network, is that we give the consumers what they want. We give them movies in crystal clear HD, along with high resolution audio, with state-of-the art games, add-ons and trailers. Players also have the ability to access this content in-game and talk with each other no matter what game they are in. Something Sony has yet to do, yet they said they will. Where with Sony, they only have a few downloadable pieces of content in their "PSN Store" and limited online capablities. Oh yeah, and Sony charges $500 for a blu-ray player that you are forced to buy.

Q: Metal Gear Solid 4 had a terrific launch and is praised by many as being the best game this generation, the week it launched the PS3 sold nearly 3x as many consoles as the XBOX 360.

A: Metal Gear Solid 4 is a very interesting title. What consumers got more or less was a movie with a few interactions. Gears of War 2 will offer the consumer what they really want with graphics that will blow Metal Gear Solid 4 away. They can also play online via Xbox Live. The 360 has currently sold 5 million more consoles in America than the PS3.

Q: Many say the PS3 has a better software lineup than the Xbox 360 with titles such as Resistance 2, Killzone 2, LittleBigPlanet, Final Fantasy XIII, Gran Turismo 5, Motorstorm 2, InFamous and has also stolen one of the 360s best exclusives in Bioshock.

A: Well, they aren't the only ones stealing exclusives we are getting Unreal Tournament 3 in July and I am also pleased to announce that the formerly PS3 exclusive Haze will be coming to the Xbox 360 with exclusive content just for the Xbox 360. Along with that, the Xbox 360 has the best exclusives in Halo Wars, Gears of War 2, Alan Wake, and Banjo Kazooie.

Moms caming running in the room, when I fell off my chair laughing at this. Xbox 360 has the best exclusives in Halo Wars, Gears of War 2, Alan Wake, and Banjo Kazooie. THIS IS A JOKE RIGHT?

Better exclusives, REALLY? OK MGS4, SIREN, SOCOM CONFRONTATION, LITTLE BIG PLANET, MOTORSTORM PACIFIC RIFT, BIOSHOCK IS COMING TO PS3, RESISTANCE 2, TEKKEN 6, FINAL FANTASY 13, AFRIKA, thats just this year, he forgot his other big titles they are raving about, unfortunately xbox makes too many rpg's, and still haven't beaten Final Fantasy series, that I've played, they have Fable 2, and Too human coming. Also a good one besides Gears of War 2, is Splinter Cell Conviction, but with those also, can't even touch PS3 exclusives starting now and into the future, and 09 don't look good for xbox neither.

09 PS3 Zipper Socom, God Of War 3, Eyedentify, Killzone 2, GT5 Full Game, Infamous, Crysis is in the works by rumors, etc, nuff said and a few we don't know yet.

So what does xbox do, the same thing they did against ps2, take off running, trying to get another console out in 2010-2011. Heres the problem and excuses you will hear, five years is right for another console, that is true if everything was still standard definition. SO Um NO 5 years isn't right for HD console, their arent enough HDTV's in peoples houses yet, and many hold back buying a HD console, when they don't have a HD tv, reason why the wii is doing so good, some people feel with a 360 or PS3, a HD is required, which they should have by now. So why put out another HD console, HD hasnt taken off into enough peoples houses yet, your going to come out with another console so fast, this is hd world now, not standard tv, they should try to make better games instead of running and pumping out another console already(7-10 years can suit you until HD is fully into peoples houses). This will be their excuse, since they have to stay much further ahead of Sony to even have a chance, look PS3 hasn't even been out 2 years, and already beating them. But anyway if dude thinks he has better exclusives he's smoking crack, but then again, what is he suppose to say, he has to back his product, he's not going to say Sony has the better line-up.

Stating which system has better games is only an opinion, there’s no right or wrong answer to this one. Someone may like the Xbox 360 line up over the PS3, someone else will like the PS3 line up over Xbox 360, others will like some of the line up on both systems.

I also don’t really think the Wii is selling so well because it’s not HD. It’s still a hard to find item, so for some it’s a must have just because of that. Also the Wii was made for a casual gamer in mind so it suppose to appeal to more people. The downside is the Wii doesn’t have a lot of powerful software sells. Casual gamers are only going to buy 5 (if that) games through the life cycle of system. My friend only has 3 games for the Wii since he bought it. That was almost 2 years ago and one of the games came with it.

REALLY? He said Xbox 360 has the best exclusives in Halo Wars, Gears of War 2, Alan Wake, and Banjo Kazooie, he also was excited Haze wouldn't be an exclusive for Sony, big deal, Haze was never a big deal too many people, now Bioshock, game of the year was. So now Bioshock is coming to PS3, Ill take given Haze away for a better Bioshock anyday. So he lost right their.

He mentions Gears Of War 2, thats nice, but Resistance 2 hits around the same time, not to mention we will have Socom, so Socom and Resistance 2, verse Gears 2, thats another loss for him.

If he thinks Alan Wake and Banjo is powerful, I have a ton of 3rd parties I will be playing before I even think about touching them two, along with countless Sony exclusives.

Example 3rd parties Madden, Mercenaries 2, Brothers In Arms, Midnight Club, Force Unleashed, Pure, HAWX, End War, Farcry 2, Project Origin, Fallout 3, Aliens, Dead Space, Mirrors Edge, Tomb Radier Underworld, Wet, etc, like I said, his exclusives that he uses as bragging, is pathetic, as I won't even get a chance to play them since their is so many titles that will destroy ALan Wake and Banjo. If he knew anything he would have at least added Splinter Cell Conviction.

So you can assume that is an opinion, simple thing is, if games are better, their better, so better get more games out on Gears of Wars level, otherwise forget about it. Saying xbox had better games then ps2 is just stupid, vice versa when the 360 and ps3 is done putting out their exclusives and ptting out their next console, ps3 will have more sales, and better games, just like ps2 over xbox, back to the drawing board.

I really have no idea who you're talking about, but if he works for Xbox. Why are you upset? Of course he’s going to say the company he works for has the best exclusive, do you really think he would say anything else?

Also you stated your own opinion by saying you’ll play tons of 3rd party games before touching Alan Wake and Banjo. Doesn’t mean other won’t like them. Personally I’m with you, I rather play some other games than Alan Wake and Banjo.

I didn't say others won't like them, Im saying he has way bigger exclusives, he uses those 2 garbage games compared to way better things to put up against the ps3 exclusives. I'm not saying their not going to be ok games, but their are maybe a few that are going to jump out of their chairs cheering, hip hop hurray, I'm glad I got my 360 for Alan Wake and Banjo over ps3's exclusives, otherwise I would have been screwed and couldn't play. Heres a guy trying to steer people to a 360 over a Ps3 and uses that crap, I wonder how much he really knows his console. Nobody said I was uupset about, I was entertained on how stupid of a saleman he is using those 2 games, not to mention using Alan Wake which more then likely won't even make this year.

I would agree. The Wii has been a great seller simply because of its price point and increased interest due to lack of readily available consoles for sale. I've had my Nintendo Wii since launch day and the system only has 4 games for it versus the 15-18 games I have for the PS3. A lot of the oh-wow novelty factor that goes with the system, like my recently purchased Wii Fit, goes out the door within two weeks on average. With Nintendo pushing the majority of the big-name games that most casual gamers will identify with and the aforementioned price point, they've got the market over Sony and Microsoft at this point but at some point that tide could change with the non-Wii third party titles that will come out.
