David Jaffe, creator of big hitters such as Twisted Metal and God of War who's known as someone not shy of sharing his opinions, believes the Sony PlayStation 3 is capable of being the best system around. In a recent interview, he made it clear that even if the Nintendo Wii is cool and the Microsoft Xbox 360 earned his love, he still sees a bright future for the PS3.

After saying he hopes the PS2 remains strong, Jaffe noted that "we're just starting to see the idea that the PS3 is going to be capable of ultimately being the best system out there, in terms of delivering the best games and the best performance."

He cited Burnout Paradise as one of the games that should be played on Sony's console if players want it the way it's supposed to be played. Jaffe did stress out his love for the Xbox 360, but apparently, he's all for Burnout's performance on PS3.

"I love the fact that Blu-ray seems to be doing really well, and seems to be winning the format war," Jaffe added. "Of course I wish it was a little less costly, I wish it had a bigger market share, but I think all that is just to come."

Talking about the consoles' battle for dominance as a PS3 fan, he foresees Sony's system to soon take a lead over the Xbox 360 in terms of market share "when all the dust settles."

As for the Wii, Jaffe admitted that he likes the machine and Super Mario Galaxy is "pretty cool," but thinks Ratchet & Clank is the better platformer. The seasoned developer explained, "I didn't get the huge big deal over it; I thought it was a really good Mario game, but I wasn't like, 'Oh my God, it's Mario 64!'"
