Why do you say that? Is it becuase you feel 360 has bad games, or possibly becuase you view RRoD as crippling? Both are ok with me; 3 year warranty is enough, new Xbox will be out after that, and there are many games I want for 360. I can see why you would find WoW a waste, but if I play 3 or more hours a day WoW is quite fun, and several of my friends play WoW on the same server as my Druid. |
I say this because (and remember this is my opinion and a lot of people will disagree):
The Xbox 360 is pretty expensive and on top of that you'll be paying $50 per year to play online with your friends. So if your planning on playing your system online for the next 5 years add $250 to the 360s price tag. Some people say that live is so much better then PSN that it's wort the extra $50 per year. I disagree but then again that's opinion. Remember if anyone says you have to pay for quality think RROD.
PS3 has a built in Bluray player and uses Bluray as it's standard format. Now the bluray player is only significant really if you have an HDTV. If you don't have an HDTV and don't plan on getting one for the next 10 years then no you shouldn't care.
People say that 360 has a better games lineup then PS3. But that argument was much more valid last year. The quality games lineup gap is closing. Actually IMO it's gone.
On to WoW.
WoW is a grindfest. So expect to pump close to 1500+ hours on WoW before you reach max Lvl (70). You can't expect to have much fun doing PVP on Wow untill you reach that level. Some people say they don't care about PVP. I ask the question: are you really going to burn that much time building a character up and not try and compete against other gamers? Wow has made a new Arena though where you can make a character at max lvl (a la guild, wars a better subscription free mmo imo). Finally gaming done in excess can be a vice. Having a game that you have to play either because of its extremely addictive nature or the fact that you are wasting money every day you don't play may or may not be a good thing depending on how you view it.
So thats why I feel the way I do about the 360 and WoW, and that's why a lot of people on this site hate on me.
