Shouldn't this be renamed to "Which is the best console to be in 2nd place" After they are getting their butts kicked by a little white box


What the hell does that have to do with anything?

Well what the hell does the title mean? Lead platform at what?



"...the best way to prepare [to be a programmer] is to write programs, and to study great programs that other people have written. In my case, I went to the garbage cans at the Computer Science Center and fished out listings of their operating system." - Bill Gates (Microsoft Corporation)

Bill Gates had Mac prototypes to work from, and he was known to be obsessed with trying to make Windows as good as SAND (Steve's Amazing New Device), as a Microsoft exec named it. It was the Mac that Microsoft took for its blueprint on how to make a GUI.

When a game is multi-plat game is made (Like how Res Evil 5 is available for all consoles) one platform is the one they focus on and then they port it to the other.  If they make the game for the 360 first, sometimes the PS3 gets the worse version.  If they focus on the PS3 first, the 360 seems to be capable of keeping up more often.

If they make it for the Wii first.....well, nobody's that crazy!

You have been on here for LONGGGG enough to know what the title means

And looking at your post history your first post in this thread was definitely an intentional jab.



All hail the KING, Andrespetmonkey

It definitely should be the lead platform. The 360 is a universal machine and can take code from anything, if you don't start on the unnecessarily difficult to program for PS3, then all the multiplats end up looking like shit. You can't port to the PS3 without rewriting the game, so it only makes sense to develop there first.



I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
I don't need your console war.

NO NO, NO NO NO.
