I was very satisfied with Sony's showing.
What the hell?
This list definitely God of War® III, Heavy Rain®, MAG & Uncharted 2.
do you imagine it's like if star wars episode four was out before the episode one ... heu wait...
At the risk of sounding like a fanboy, that eclipses the xbox and nintendo line up, yes some games are coming out next year, but there is a lot of games this year.
It's such a bizarre situation we have where so many people consider cross-platform games as de facto 360 exclusives.
totally good point
when SNES came out it was the same story! People said Genesis was better because SNES had no games.But, there was no blogosphere back then to talk about it on.
but now, I'm extremely happy to be in the Sony camp, my PS3 and PSP are going to get some love this year.
This was so full of WIN!
