Playfr3ak does it really matter if its on both consoles? I mean, by having such a grand game on one machine means ALOT of people miss out on this game, it doesnt hurt us gamers either way, as we will all get to experience it and enjoy it, i know for a fact when i first play GTA IV i wont be thinking "aww **** why couldnt this stay on PS3 only?" I'd be beating the hell out of pedestrians, running over people in cars and causing mischief..because that is what GTA is so good at WHoa i just exposed my dark side

RROD was a big issue Playfr3ak, i think it still is as well unless you get an elite 360. But yeah, there is that problem to consider, but if you want to play the games you want to play i suppose you have to take the risks. luckily mine hasnt died on me yet. If i had to choose one console to own it would be PS3 though, Tekken 6 FTW!!!! EDIT: Definitely man, im all for others opinions as well

PS 3 FTW !!! i agree gaming IS a risk in some way or the other especially when u fork out a fortune , buh u know wha ?? its worth it, gaming for me is not a kill the hour thing, its been my life and will stay as such, im not really a nerd lol, but gaming is just so fascinating, i wonder if they will ever run out of ideas tho

BTW why does elite 360 not get affected by RROD??

Not too sure why it doesnt to be honest man :s , i get sucked into gaming real badly, there could be one game i want to play, and if i need the console to play it i'll do all i can to buy it. Its like when 360 launched, i bought DOA4 straight away as i love the series, then when PS3 games started surfacing before launch, came along a trailer of Heavenly Sword, i bought a PS3 for that game alone pretty much and do not regret the decision as i play it to death I may be losing money, but to me, enjoyment is priceless and you only get one life Lol Longarms man, you want some of them

well i kinda agree here.

i mean, i owned a ps1... and ill admit i used pirated games, but when we get these certain exclusives like dmc, GTA and so on.. and then they just get ported to other consoles its just like whats the point..

like imagin if mgs4 and ff13 was ported as well.. i'd just sell the ps3 and never game again (which wouldn't be that bad, as gaming is a pretty bad addiction/life waster).

oh and people who say "gaming is your life" uh... you might wanna take a look at the word "life" and what it means before you give yourself away to games. remember we only live ONCE, in 50 years we'll never see anyone ever again. that doesn't scare anyone? it sure does scare me.

live a better life than a gaming life. keep gaming as a side hobby for the love of god..

Whats the point? Correct me if im wrong, but you would give up on gaming just because games that you can still play are going to another console? The point to these games going multiplatform is to make for bigger fanbases, meaning more people like you and me can get to experince this great game, i dont see what the big prob is, if it went exclusive from another console then fair enough but its not like its not on the PS3 at all, you can still play it.

Frig man if you're going to worry about that all your life then you might as well shoot yourself or something because the stress will probably kill you. You're right we do only get one life, why not enjoy it why we can, does it matter if people want to play games? Does it affect you personally what others do, im not trying to be harsh but everyone is entitled to live how they want to live and do what they want to do, why should they be questioned for that. EDIT Playfr3ak, lay by 360, you dont need it right now, but do grab those said PS3 exclusvies when you can.....my word they are good, uncharted is scary good.

@callan

no, i probably wouldn't, it wasn't meant to be taken too seriously.

i own a ps3, and i won't be buying an xbox 360 because the games don't interest me. assassin's creed is now on there, haze was going on there, MGS4 was rumoured to go on there.. DMC4 is now on there... ill admit i didn't do much research but i honestly thought these were just 100% exclusives. i'm not just saying it so xbox users can't enjoy it as well, but theres how we get more developers interested in us with all the sales we'd get.

if assassin's creed was exclusive (which it was) i reckon we'd see a pretty darn good amount of sales in the ps3 (haven't even played it, and although dissapointing to quite alot it still is an amazing game from the looks of it). and we could secure more exclusives so in the future we recieve more exclusives.

oh and callan5 i don't appreciate you saying i should probably shoot myself. all im saying is, gaming gets you no where, even it being enjoyable there are better things you can do with ur life. im a gamer telling other gamers this so it probably does sound retarded but im hoping to finish up soon with it all.

yeah i know what u mean, im not trying to be selfish and just say "oh but i dont want them to enjoy anything that they don't own".. what i mean is, we buy a console that has more games that interest us, right? well the ps3 stood out in the games i was interested in, and with alot of the games going multiplatform it kinda screws u over.

That is my philosophy in life Playfr3ak man, spend money why you have it, as we may be dead tomorrow and some random could be spending that $400 dollars i had in my bank on some attire I do see what you mean needps3, it did sort of **** me to begin with when DMC4 and Co when multiplatform, but the console sort of has replacements now in a way, HAZE is one and then there is of course, Heavy Rain, a game that i seriously believe will shift units by itself. MGS4 rumors are officially squashed now, FFXIII aint going nowhere, same applies with Tekken 6, Killzone 2, GT5, GOW3 and Little Big Planet *Is that the name of the game? Which more then compensate for those lossed exclusives considering AC didnt recieve great reviews. EDIT, needps3 i didnt actually mean for you to go and shoot yourself, i probably worded that wrong and it can get easily misintepreted, but if you worry about things that havent happened, you're sort of not enjoying life then because you're worrying about things that are probably 50 years away. Like you said, we only get one life, lets enjoy it, less stress. sorry you took it the wrong way, my apologies
