    rofl.... C'mon, man, sales do not equal quality. Dont even get me started on that. And Square is only known for FFVII and beyond to folks who dont know any better. And anyone who actually knows any thing about basket ball knows Tim Duncan is one of the GOAT, if not the GOAT power forwards.

    But thats my whole arguement... we can debate if FFVI is better than VII all day... but if FFVI didnt come out for the SNES and came out for the PS1 with FFVII graphics then ? was would have played that first.

    and Duncan is the GOAT PF... but if he was with the Lakers he would be as popular as Kobe, Magic, Shaq, etc...

    only games Nintendo Markets are there own... if Final Fantasy would have stayed on Nintendo it would not have been as popular... thats why original multiplat games today is not as popular as Gears, Uncharted, or Halo... those games have identity and a good marketing team behind them...

    ^^Metal Gear equals shooting ? . Hood ? was playing that and Syphon Filter back in the day, when SF was actually good lol.

    That is true...lol

    Metal Gear is hide and seek with a story though... and the stereotype is that ? dont read or like to play anything that cant hold there attention.
    all the FF PS1 games were reading and MGS is basically a movie. MGS is more than just shooting its was strategy and Cameron was playing the ? out of that game...lol

    You know damn well Sony ain't blow up Madden or NBA 2K, foh lol. Dreamcast blew up NBA 2K/NFL 2K, and most sports games sell more (and run better) on 360, just like Madden/Live/2K on Xbox > PS2. Sony does have a great franchise in MLB with The Show, but it's MLB, so......

    Sports games don't define a console anyway since they come out every year on every platform.

    PS2 did blow up Madden... When the Dreamcast made the 2K series EA said that they were going to Sony... Sony blew them up and the rest is history
    and if you can remember back in the PS1 days Gameday 90's series was popular because Sony had there back... even though Madden was better
    Soon as Madden was exclusive to Sony for a year or so ? was like "? Gameday" madden blew up because of Sony and the PS2 being popular

    AYE that ? was the business on PSP as well they are talking about bringing it back i dont see why not because there aren't many true stealth games left! That new Ghost Recon looks sweet though! Metal Gear is true stealth but you can make it a shooter fest if you want too lol ? gets hella hard when you do!

    GTA3 was a major point in the PS2 vs XBOX war

    GTA3 and Halo came out within a month of each other and both were the deciding factor of their console

    i remember plenty of kids wanting to play the other game but couldnt because their parents werent about to buy another console

    i also remember xbox gamers rejoicing once VC and GTA3 came to XBOX

    this is what im saying... i was a real fanboy of the Playstation back then.. because it WAS the hood choice.. and unfourutnately PS3 is the hood choice too.. but i remember being hella mad when i heard the news that vice city AND grand theft auto 3 were going to xbox... and then i heard u could listen to your own music in-game too?! i was HOT!

    PS3 still outsold the 360 and PS4 is smashing the X1. What would GTA do again?
