Out of this entire thread, only one person has posted about Microsoft.  I'm not surprised, either. 

It isn't surprising, they have the smallest fan service of the 3.

--two, now.  Somebody voted M$ while I was writing the other post.


Yeah.  I guess not enough of us have grown up in a world where there's always been a Microsoft console.  It's no issue, though.  I didn't have an original Xbox and I'm surprised to have enjoyed the 360 as much as I did.  And in all honesty, I haven't even voted!  I guess I'll click "see results".

the other post i was looking for.

side note: you never did beat VC on PS3 did you?

As soon as I saw you post on my wall, I knew that question was coming!  After we routed that giant tank thingy, there was a skirmish in the city.  That army obliterated Squad 7.  I turned the PS3 off and never tried it again!  I was humiliated.  I guess if I kept my team together instead spreading them so thinly..........I was tempted to lie but something about your name written in all caps compells me to tell the truth!!

very funny. that was LOL crazy.

tell me wht chapter it is and i'll help cause theres 2 many big tank thingies on that game.

i'm still playing it again (5th time). i think im on chapter 11 or something.

Sony-Nintendo mostly, but I am going to eventually pick up microsoft's product when it is cheap. Funny because I seem to dislike the Nintendo and Sony fans on this site mostly, and seem to enjoy the 360 fans more. 

you don't like me? wht did i do? cries a river of tears in his sorrow.

It was the one that we stopped by setting off explosives and causing an avalanche to block its path.  It killed anybody in its path in one hit and there was a town surrounded by landmines.  That was the last battle we won.  Haven't played it since January.

Where the games are.

Otherwise: Nintendo & Sony.

come on CG. this is your most boring post ever and its sad cause its the only boring one i've seen and its in my thread that kinda hurts alittle.

where the games are really doesn't say much considering where the most games are could suck? all the games could suck which isn't the case for either console this gen and is very unlikely next gen.

so no careful planning from the inFamous CGIQ? once again borring post with no detail wasn't wht i was expecting from u.

I think the problem with MS is there's very little exclusive MS content now.   Halo has gotten long in the tooth.  Bioware has gone multi-platform.   Viva Pineta seems dead.     They closed studios, released Bungie.

What's left?  Fable, and Rare and Forza.   Hardly compelling reason to remain exclusively loyal.    At least not when compared to Sony and Nintendo's extensive 1st party offerings. 

Edit:  Put GT meant Forza.  And there's Gears but that's going to start to get stale as well.

MS needs some exciting new IPs if it's going to win over people next gen.   Or at least more of them.   We haven't even seen all of Nintendo's or Sony's come into play yet this gen.

as long as microsoft keeps gears exclusive , i love my fable , i do miss viva pinata , they own project gotham ip which i love the series , they own inifinte undiscovery , crackdown etc .... but as long as they get a few new ips that really all i care about , i love xbox live all my friends use live so why should i switch im fine  with microsoft they havent done anything wrong with me , other then not buying bioware or bizzare but eh  oh well ...
