Really? I have Star Ocean:Till the end of time and it wasnt that great of a game... I'm just waiting patiently for the final fantasies and kingdom hearts to come out. At the moment I'm playing the last remnant and probably after I finish, I'll get a copy of Valkyria Chronicles and my R4 card so I can play the ace attorney games.

Free Radical has closed: the founder is reopening a new studio thought, from what I understand.

As for the ps3 exclusive developers the guy named:
Sucker punch: who only really develop the Sly games, which are kids' platformers. And have no entries on the ps3.
Naughty dog: again, platformers. The crash franchise sucks these days. Uncharted on the other hand is excellent.
Insomniac: what a surprise: kids platformers. Spyro sucks now and is out on 360 too. R&C is excellent. Resistance is their only non-platformer game and even that isn't great. Best to stick to third party developers
for FPS.
PS3center.net - Story: Update on Free Radical's Situation

Still tentative, but reports are suggesting they'll keep the name get a new backer

MGS4 made me buy a PS3 without any questions asked. Didn't even consider a 360.
lol
i have yet to play an mgs game, apparantly they're really good. I played mgs2 once, or some mgs game, on ps2, at a dentist place. My sister was getting stuff done to her braces, and i was playing, i had no idea where to go or what to do, so i didnt like it, lol.

You don't play an MGS game, you load the game and push buttons to move from one FMV to the next

Just a bullshit rumour that was going around when it came out. But ironically, you'll be watching to somewhere around 90 mins of FMV's anyway if you ever decide to play it.

MGS2 is the worst of them, anyway.

Nah, I strongly suggest looking into MGS3 on the PS2 though... one my favourite games ever made and easily my favourite on the PS2.

Best deal at the moment is to buy a 360 for a third of the price

Yeah the longest cut scenes were generally about 40 mins off the top of my head. MGS4 is the first game in a long time that has made me feel so involved, there are only two other games that have given me that sort of experience and they are Final Fantasy VII and Baldur's Gate 2: Shadows of Amn.
