Forums - Microsoft Discussion - Year of the Xbox 360

shio -> "G. I can also pirate PC games and I don't waste a cent, since we're not caring about supporting developers. I atleast buy them cheap new copies: $5 for Bioshock, $5 for all 3 Penumbra games, $5 World of Goo, $7.50 both Max Payne games, $1 Half-Life, etc..."

I know you,shio...I really do...the Pc pirates are protecting the Pc because it`s the only source of game piracy. Without it,they will have to buy the games and support the developers or worse...rent the console games day 1...It clearly means they can`t afford it,that they are poor,that they pay for a game instead of downloading it and saying they gor it off Steam.

I left Pc gaming because I was tired of upgrading my Pc,framerade dips,errors and a small screen. Even if i rent some console games,i do it day 1 so the developers get something,because the renting stores have to buy them and then rent them,so trust me,renting day 1 is a good thing.

Why is there no renting market for Pc? renting games? because of torrent sites and piracy that will never go away,it will only get worse.

I was tired to be treated as a thief and wanted a different experience,so I bought a cheap 360. I played Mass Effect and Assassins Creed again on the 360 and what a difference. You should try it and not consider the console player as a "dirty and peasant".

If we are inferior to Pc,then how come you don`t play Gears 2,Fable 2,Ninja Gaiden 1 and 2,Lost Oddysey,Condemned 2,God of War,Uncharted,Killzone,Final Fantasy 13,Dante`s Inferno,Castlevania 2009,Bayonetta,Forza 3,Halo 3 and who knows how many more games in the console`s life span.

You can keep WoW,Diablo and Starcraft as exclusive Pc games,because Crysis,Half Life and many more got 360/ps3 ports because they sell.

And no,I can`t say you are a thief,but how much do you think developers get from a 5$ Bioshock? 1$ Half Life? Nothing,beleave me...only increased numbers of Pc game sales to a market that will be in a coma in a few years.

Or do you think that in this crysis when people have less money and Pc piracy is very easy...they will not download a game? Don`t hold your breath.

@Aldro  L4D is a new franchise regardless when you gotten your Xbox 360,So is Uncharted.

Yeah but lets say I have L4D on my PC.

I get the X360 months later, and L4D 2 is announced.

OH Sorry I mean a new IP not a new franchise XD.(Thats a diffrence right?).

 

Like Infamous, LBP, L4D (When first released), Uncharted(When first released and not Uncharted 2).

I want a game that is like completely new you know? Something that I can jump into without it beeing any previous games. It can have a sequel/prequel in the future atleast ive played the first game when it just came out. And since I do have L4D on PC it would only make sence for me to get L4D 2 on PC aswell as I tried the demo on the X360 and I sucked on aiming XD.

Looked at sig... ooook? Seriously man if you that ashamed to be an Xbox 360 owner give it to somebody who isn't a fanboy. A true gamer will not be ashamed of having a X360 even if it is not there preferred system just because it means simply more games they can play. You seem to frawn upon the idea of having one at all. As for brand new ip titles their will be plenty. This just isn't a big year for new ip titles on any system. Wait till next year for some big ones. Judging by your avatar you like shooters and there are plenty of them to choose from on X360 along with alot of nice action titles and so on. Sorry to see you UNFORTUNATELY do not enjoy a sytem with one of the best library of games in recent years.

Ill die before getting anymore shooters. CoD 4, KZ2, Hell even MGO, Warhawk (I count that), Gears 2 , Halo 3, Haze(Yeah XD).

THE ONLY shooter I will get this generation left will maybe be M.A.G if it turns out to big due to the 256 idea. Im just sold on it. I wont even be getting CoD 2 even though I have epic love for the first game. I simply dont want to use guns shooting people anymore, I don't...

Only game im still playing that is a shooter is KZ2. Hence my avatar.

''more games they CAN play''

Ofcourse CAN play, but what about WANT to play? I dont want to play anything on it not even Gears 2 or Halo 3. I just don't see why I should keep it unless there came a new IP which I would get an interest too. I hoped for E3 to make that happen but it didnt.

Theres just two reason atm that im gonna keep it

1) My idiotic friends who are taking them ages to get a PS3 XD.

2) Splintercell looked pretty neat im gonna keep an eye on that one aswell.

 

Best library of games is a taste matter. Since PS3 was my launch console I actually disagree 100%. In my opinion that has the best library as I choose quality over quantity (Thats my opinion, While you probably do the opposite).

For any system not a big year for new IPs?

Did we just miss Infamous or something? Heavy Rain(Even though I got no check on that game). Hell even M.A.G :/. Theres probably a few for X360 too but nothing that im hearing of as much as these three were discussed. Couldnt they announce something new on E3 instead of a sequel/prequel/something we already expected? And dont u dare give me Natal as I will PC game once every console gets its motion sensor and use it as often as the Wii does. Im just happy PS3s dildo controller wasnt talked more then 5 minutes while Natal was discussed for about a half an hour which felt like an hour to me.

Im just a fanboy who worships the PS3 and wished for a new IP on the X360. But no worries ill just wait and play my PS3 + some games Im not fond of with my friends on the X360 until that happends. Hopefully Splintercell will be as sweet as the video we saw on E3.

1.) Sounds to me like you are just way to picky. The X360 has plenty of games that aren't shooters that you could enjoy. Not everything is Gears or Halo you know.

 

2.) There are plenty of people that really don't care for a PS3. I only play exclusives on it myself and thats my reason for wanting it but not everyone desires the exclusives enough over a competitors. Perhaps X360 games appeal to them more but it does not make them idiots.

 

3.) Actually mines better than that. I prefer both quality and quantity that's why my primary system is the X360. It is also why I am a multi-console owner as well. To me X360 has the best quantity of games and the best quality of games. I'm talking best racing, best fighting, best rpg, action/adventure etc.

 

BTW Heavy Rain is not coming in 2009! Oh and MAG is a been there done that thing. Their already is a game like that on PC playing with a large number of players in the hundreds. It really is nothing to crow about. No I didn't forget about inFamous but inFamous is not coming out this Fall/Holiday timeframe. PS3 Exclusive titles during this time are R & C: A Crack in Time, Uncharted 2, Demons Soul, MAG ok so I count 4 here. X360 has Splinter Cell:Conviction, Halo 3:ODST, Left 4 Dead 2, Magna Carta 2, Forza Motorsport 3 so I count 5 here. Both have a fair amount of exclusives this Fall/Holiday timeframe. In general this year is filled with exclusives you honestly shouldn't have been expecting many considering what year this generation is now in. Both have great exclusives, Great sequeks and multiplatform titles so I say it again this Fall/Holiday they are pretty even. They were/are in the Spring/Summer as well.

 

 



 How our favorite systems are just like humans and sometimes have issues finding their special someone...

Xbox 360 wants to KinectPS3 wants to Move!  Why are both systems having such relationship problems?  The reason is they both become so infactuated with desire while watching the Wii as it waggles on by. They simply want what they can't have.

1+3) Picky? Well I have been on webhallen.se checking out the games on the X360 and nothing appeals to me. I hate RPGS, I hate racers(Im shocked that I like GT5) Well if you dont count motorstorm I do like that but I hate pure for example), Hate fighters (aside from fight night games and wrestling which I rather get on my PS3 since most are there), Action/adventure = Recommend me one and ill check it out!(Please not too much killing though and rather a exclusive becuase most multiplats will be on the PS3).

 

2) My mates do care for the PS3 and are saving up to it, They are just above 1500KR, and will sell their X360 pro according to them by September(Or atleast the 3 friends that was my reason for the X360). But yeah I understand that there are people that wont care for the PS3 nor 360. Although this isnt the case at the moment.



All nah i hate halo, dislike forza but i did like the look of splinter Cell... but its not the year of the 360 and i hate GTA4...



I owned a 360 for 7 months and i realised there is no point will all the PS3 games coming out this year Uncharted 3 <3

Reading of these threads is always fun. Anytime someone mentions something good about a console it turns into Jurassic Park in here, and the raptors from the opposite side attack.
