Re: Far Cry 2 maybe November ??

* Les Steel:

You'll need to clarify what you mean by Nintendo games. Do you mean Nintendo games in general or the games made and published by Nintendo. There's a big difference, as I never saw a game made by Xbox 360.

Right, but there are games made by Microsoft ("Microsoft" and "Ninteno" -> manufacturers, "XBox 360" -> console system) ;-)

You realise there is more to games than "shiny"? Your entire reply appears to be that of a mid teenager impressed by shiny graphics, even if you may be older, as insinuated by your reply elsewhere about the c64. Real gamers play games that are fun to them, regardless of peer pressure against so called dumbed down kids stuff, something our past resident troll pc lamer couldn't get her head round.

Right. I also don't care about latest gfx as these games usually are a disappointment in terms of gameplay or length, at least to me.

Right now the best selection of games is for the Xbox 360.
So if you're not going to play on Xbox 360 because of some
stupid hatred towards them, you'll be missing out on a lot of
really sophisticated, deep games that have a lot of great content.

Which games would they be? I am honestly interested as I'm buying a PS3 in the near future as the 360 games so far have left me cold, as well as the fact its a blu-ray player and media extender.

I bought my PS3 mainly for that - media extender and BD player (playing videos streamed from a Windows Home Server), and less for gaming. Until now I only bought two games ("Resistance: Fall of Men" and "The Darkness"), all other games I played were rented. Resistance is an average shooter like the CoD series but if you get a PS3 I really can recommend "The Darkness".
