Just to add to that I spent half an hour chatting to a mate while I played Quake 4 this evening and another hour chatting to another friend while just playing Ninety Nine Nights.  This is one of the things I love about the 360, the way I can chat to all my friends from back home while playing.


Where are the PS3 Reviews?

[QUOTE=The Video Game Critic]From what I can tell, Resistance is the best game for it, but I haven't heard squat about any other games.[/QUOTE]

Really? Because I've heard that most everything but Resistance fits into one of these categories:

 

1. A multiplatform release that's exactly the same on PS3 as on 360 (Madden 07, Call of Duty 3, Marvel: Ultimate Alliance).

 

2. A multiplatform release that's better on 360 in every possible way (Tony Hawk Project 8).

 

3. A first party game that's poorly done and does very little to show off what the system can do (Genji: Days of the Blade, Untold Legends: Dark Kingdom).

 

or 4. A complete piece of garbage (Gundam: Crossfire).

 

The only games I've heard that were good at or around launch are Ridge Racer 7 and Fight Night Round 3.  But let's be honest about Fight Night; that first person perspective isn't going to be enough to make you pay $60 for mostly the same game you already have on 360, is it?

 

I played NBA 07 and thought it was pretty fun, but the best game on the system is also the one that isn't even out yet; Motorstorm. The demo of the game showed off the PS3's power better than anything at launch.
