Uhh, what? IGN is not biased against the PS3. Historically, IGN is a pro Sony website.
The only reason people are trying to say IGN is anti-PS3 is because games that are out on both the 360 and PS3 so far are better for 360, and get reviewed as such. Other than that, IGN is still neutral/slightly Sony biased.

you don't know what you are talking about. Just yesterday in their review for Assassins Creed PS3, they took away points because they said it had less FPS then the xbox version and the picture wasn't as good. However, the picture and FPS is better on the PS3.

And your proof for this is?
...?
Developers said from the outset that the 360 version would be better. Why would you be surprised when it came true? And it was freaking .2 points. Huge Bias.

I just got Assassin's Creed. I haven't played it yet, but I'm going to start it up in a few minutes.

Yeah they said on IGN its great for the first few horus but then gets tiresome as the gameplay wont differ much from start to finish, although i can understand that freedom to do what you want, when you want thing. I'm pretty sure i could have played all the GTA's for a lot of hours without ever actually completeling a mission

Besides that temporary dip in frame rate (it's gone already)...this game is incredibally smooth. Playing on the 360 mind you...I'm sure it isn't much different on the PS3. Everything is responsive and all the motions are fluid. When you get the controls down...free running to escape is loads of fun. I really do believe I could do it all day...haha. Stringing move after move together...it just looks amazing.

I like the game so far. Haven't played a ton of it, but it's pretty cool. It looks amazing. The controls take maybe 3-5 minutes to get used to, but after that they're pretty effortless.

Good deal, PL found the original thread. That other one should be locked.

ok, I was writing this in the other thread before it got deleted and I don't wanna get this thread in trouble but...

Someone asked about what they should buy, and I said, "It's about the games, and here is my advice based on games."
Some people then complained about that, and I explained myself. In fact, I've helped out with people's questions about Drake's Fortune and whatnot.

dude, no one is doubting what you say...it's the fact that you come to the thread to tell everyone how much better 360 is...yes, some people ask what they should get, 360 or PS3, in which case, you are justified in what you say...but to come in and just ramble on about how 360 is so much better than PS3 is just unneeded and unwanted, everyone in here is either a PS3 owner or considering getting one, so we obviously like the PS3...there is no need for you to come in and run of facts about how FPS is better or how games are ported to the PS3, we already know that and understand...just go to the 360 thread and jerk off to 360 and leave everyone here alone

And when are these games supposed to be released? It's not a pretty damn good list if this is it for the next two to three years.
Oh, and you forgot Final Fantasy Versus XIII.

And, once again, until the question was asked, I didn't really say anything.
All of the things I have said in either thread has been in response to something. I'm not just coming in "PS3 SUXORZ!" Just when someone says something, I reply.
The FPS comment was a REPLY to someone saying how it was better on PS3 even though that wasn't true.
You can like the PS3. There's lots to like. Just when someone bullshits about something I call them on it. I do the same about the 360. If you have a problem with people calling you on BS, don't lie.

Those are 2008 titles... I didn't forget it I just haven't heard much about Versus 13 to be honest.

Do you like RPG's?
THEN GO PLAY A VIDEO GAME WITH FINAL FANTASY IN THE TITLE. (other than eleven, that was just a crappy MMO).

I mean, I understand that the series has credibility, but I meant do I have to have played the whole series or can I just jump in now...and like what makes Final Fantasy so different/better than other games? I do like RPGs, which is why I'm considering FF, but if I have to understand previous games then I'm not going to jump in now...

Each FF is completely unrelated to each other and each has its own world/storyline (except for FF X and X-2).

And they're all amazing (except for X-2)...
Honestly 2 of my top 10 favorite games are Final Fantasy 7 and Final Fantasy 10 and I would consider putting Final Fantasy 9 in there... They're quality games with a good story and alot of fun to play.
