Playstation 3. It seems to be improving its library of games. The XBOX 360 won't have many good games in the future.

Except Fable II.

And Fallout 3.
Oh, and Fracture...
... As well as these minor(!) game titles:
Gears of War 2;
Banjo Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts;
Mirror's Edge;
Too Human;
and umm... I think that's it for 2008 alone.

EDIT: Oh yeah, Halo Wars.

So... What's the PS3's 'real games to look forward to' line-up?
MGS4 and LBP? Laff.

Resistance 2, Wipeout HD, Resident Evil 5, The Agency, Final Fantasy 13, MotorStorm: Pacific Rift, Killzone 2, and Bioshock.

The new Banjo doesn't look great. Banjo on the N64 was much better.

Anyways, I wouldn't recommend getting any of those systems. The Wii is where the fun is at.

The 360 already has Bioshock dude.

FF13 is perhaps something worth it. But from that list, it's all I would buy.

Edit: At the other sources quip, buy yourself a 16gb flash drive. The 360 will play most AVI formats.

Tales of Vesperia, Star Ocean 4 (Square-Enix), Last Remnant, Infinite Undiscovery (Square-Enix) announced for the 360.

I have to agree, the new versions look like a racing game. What is Microsoft doing to poor old Rare!

So, how's MGS4? Today's the big day isn't it?

I think Rare's games are more suited to a younger genre and that did well on Nintendo's system because of that. They don't really fit into the Xbox or PlayStation audience. Don't get me wrong it will sell, just not as well.

I don't think that's the problem, Rare's games have really had a drastic change. As a 10 year old I remember playing Golden Eye, Banjo Kazooie, Diddy Kong Racing, Perfect Dark etc. on the N64 and I know for a fact that even as an adult I would have enjoyed the games.
Unfortunately now most of the games are going too much into the children end of the audience spectrum (such as Viva Pinata, don't get me wrong it's a good game, just a bit too childish) and I think that is the problem, they're simply not capitalising on the young adult audience any more and ironically those are the ones which grew up with and want to (or would be willing to) play Rare's games.
