Forums - Microsoft - Post something actually positive about the 360 thread

I wish I had a 360 to play Fable II. I've only played the first one and it was amazing.



Around the Network

Not more "leave Xbox alone!!!!" persecution complex blabber, how overdone. Alright, positive things- Mass Effect, Splinter Cell, Alan Wake, Crackdown, Halo & Fable 3 in this year alone to add to the already superb library, comfortable controller, achievements, a vast array of content on XBL, a great online service, etc.



  

Halo paved the way for dozens of crappy console shooters that effectively killed the FPS genre quality wise. And with the new focus on generic halo or COD clones, a large number of genres have collapsed entirely. (Horror, platform, RPG etc.

It overcrowded the marketplace, ensuring that by sheer value of being different the wii would win the console race and usher in a new era of "innovative" and terrible motion controls

Its given us a generation of gamers who think that playing regnerating health easy mode 6 hour fps makes them hardcore despite having no knowledge of games as a whole

It brought paid online and a focus on releasing incomplete games then charging for missing parts via DLC, it made this the norm ensuring that companies could gouge people as much as they wanted and at worst no one would complain, though most of the time new paid content would be praised as the Dev continuing to support the game.

It quickly jumped on the motion control bandwagon with Kinect as soon as they saw how much money nintendo was making, and their fans who once derided nintendo for abandoing the core and making shovelware games now praise MS for making some of the most piss poor looking games in recent years.

Xbox is the worst thing to happen to the game industry, ecspecially if you've gamed on PC or remember how good things used to be, there is nothing positvie to say about it -even the color scheme blows.

Ask me about being an elitist jerk

Time for hype

Kinect will be the evolution of my dearest DDR. Can't wait for Konami's final version of Dance Masters.

All gaming systems, consoles/PC, have thier perks... why fight over preferences? I like Coke and you like Pepsi, that's it, let's not fight over which toy we like best cause that's what they are. Is someone's preference in a toy important or is the relationship between you and your neighbor more important? Answer is obvious, but THE most important thing is your relationship with God almighty. God Bless you in Jesus's name.

I can communicate without talking... I can send a loved one money without actually sending money... and I can commit theft without the product disappearing, the point of theft is the point of theft not one of it's possible symptoms which is the product dissappearing. The thief wants to gain something without paying for it, that's the point of theft, the thief doesn't have to care or anybody else has to care if the product dissappears. The product dissappearing is just a possible symptom of theft. Gifts are sacrfices, in order to give a gift, it has to be a genuine sacrfice/gift, meaning a copy of the game isn't still in your PC. Piracy is theft and/or being a culprit of theft.

Whoever told you that was the right thing to do, was wrong.

 

@piggychan

What game is that?

 

OT:

360 has Gears of War, one of the best splitscreen experiences ever!

Oh, and 360 with Kinect might pave the way for Japanese hentai games in the west!
