YAWN! Assumption is the mother of all... Anyway I play games which have great replayability. You don't get that from Sony. How many shooters has Sony bought out with decent local play? 0. With a console which defines itself as the central media centre for the main TV in the house why would I want to keep anything which cannot be played more than one person at once? My PC is a personal item and theres no expectation for local play which makes single player only games OK. My console is attached to a TV in a room which sees a lot of use. How can I even play a single player console game again if they are so lame as to be ultra violent, single player, no pick up and play? Sure you can argue that Sony has some coop games but when Nintendo Wii is on that same TV why bother with Mod Nation when I can have Mario Kart, why bother with LBP when I have NSMB Wii? Why bother with God of War when I have Super Smash Bros Brawl? What else is left? Graphics? My HTPC crushes the PS3 in outright performance. My gaming PC is night and day vs my HTPC. Gameplay? I have a huge selection of games I already own on my PC which are outright as good as if not better than everything Sony has ever released this generation.
i get plenty of replay value out of my exclusives i buy on ps3, but i can't say the same about my 360. oh and multiplayer isn't my whole gaming life as i love single player more, but the few multiplayers i do like i'd rather play with my friends on psn for free. also like i said i love variety in my games and the ps3 gives me that; all the 360 gives me is shooter after shooter after shooter. thank god for Alan Wake but unfortunately it looks like 360 gamers didnt want it because it wasn't a shooter. Theres more to gaming beyond the Xbox 360 and PS3. I suggest you explore the alternatives or you'll be forever saddled with low expectations if you define your experiences by what Sony offers you. |
i dont like mario kart or brawl, i do like NMBW wii but i haven't even finished it yet. you seem to be a pc elitist to me so the only game(s) your probably playing are MW2, BFBC2 as you say you dont like single player. to me that seems limited. there are just time where i don't want to play with other people and a great single player experience is more rewarding them so regular old multiplayer.
actually what makes this so called pc gaming better than console gaming? all 3rd party games are multiplatform and they play the exact same way across all platforms. to me unique gaming experience are more important than just multiplayer and single player games bring that to the table for me.
oh and please enlightment to more gaming beyond ps3 and 360. also please tell me what your playing that gives you such a great experience on PC or 360.
