Thought KZ2 was the 'Halo Killer'???
What a load of crap, when are game makers going to learn you can't have a top game on the PS3? You are just wasting your time, you have to do what Take 2, capcom, and square are doing and get these games on the 360, otherwise you are losing out on a huge opportunity. If KZ2 was on the 360 it would be selling at least twice as much than the sales on the PS3.

Thats because he doesnt play with his Wii enough. (hardy har har)

Developers are starting to figure out the CELL. Whether or not that translates into a boost for the system is yet to be seen however their is no denying the fact that the PS3 is getting quality exclusive titles. Killzone 2 couldnt be done on the 360 without some serious tweaking and God of War 3 is from what i'm hearing, shaping up to be something VERY special. Still...keep on hating "fanboys".

God of War 3 is going to be great, I will be first in line for that one, it has never been a console mover though. You could make the greatest game ever, which GOW3 could be, and it still won't be a weekly top seller if its exclusively on the ps3. GAME OVER SONY FANBOYS, GET OVER IT. There is always the PS4 ten years from now.
