Playstation 3 Demographic More Diverse Than Xbox 360 Demographic?

On this website, I'm usually alone for PS3 comments. I just view the PS3 differently from everyone here, and generally less favorably.

Not sure if I'm the odd one though, go to the best video game system elimination thread, and PS3 is looking at securing #1, while 360 placed 18/40, behind every single Sony, and Nintendo system (except Virtual Boy). Makes no sense singe more then 90% of the games are MP.

Still everybody, great debate. You may not be able to change my opinion, but I respect yours, and it's rare to get a good debate going on this website that doesn't lead into some crazy PS3 fan insulting me (had 5 nuts banned so far, :-O!). I appreciate it, and again, respect your opinions.

Just so you know, IGN labels Uncharted as a third-person action adventure, VGC simply labels it as Action (which makes sense since it plays like a movie), while gametrailers classify it as Action/Adventure, Shooter. To be honest, VGC's classification makes the most sense since it's mainly the movie feel that makes Uncharted what it is.

While I don't agree with you trying to bring the PS3 down to an equal level or below Xbox 360 on every possible occasion, the PS3 being voted as the best console ever is just wrong, it should barely be in the top 5, let alone number 1.

Anyway, probably 80% of games released these days have some sort of shooting mechanics in them. For a game to be classified as a shooter in mine and many other people's views, shooting has to be very dominant, think along the lines of Gears of War. I think "Action / Adventure, Shooter" would be the most accurate description, if I could choose only ONE of those categories to place Uncharted in though I wouldn't hesitate to put it into Action / Adventure.

I can see why me bringing the PS3 and 360 down to equal levels would annoy you, but it just baffles me that people here think PS3 is far supperior to 360. I'm just tired of people calling me ignorant because I can view this rationally

Also if I went around saying 360 is better (which it is IMO), people tend to flip out on me. Bringing them down to equal level brings me less hate, and just makes defending some games I like (like Halo, Gears, Forza, or Lost Odyssey) significantly easier.

I'll try to limit myself.

I agree with you about your comment on Shooters, I just feel Shooting is the dominant game mechanic in Uncharted. Uncharted is a linear game, which you spend the majority of time shooting people, so how could I not?

However I did say I would settle with Shooter/AA Hybrid, which you seem to agree with.
