... with shio running in to remind everybody that PC >>>>> 360.

 

I will save him a post. The PC is better then any console on the market today. There :p

Too late, he already did his thing, albeit in subtler fashion than usual. Maybe next thread, but you'll have to get up pretty early to beat him to it.

what is the point of this thread?

 

I understand that from your point of view any thread that isn't spreading FUD or bashing everything 360 related lacks a point...

Anyways, I do still play Forza 2 these days - albeit I'm kind of stuck, the endurance races are way too long... someday I gotta finish those. That's all that's left, well that and the insane event with the unmodified 'old school Ferrari/Ford GT.

Squilliam, that list of great games is missing a whole bunch. There are so many.

 

(38 days till I get mine)

Too many games to list! Should I just copy n paste Metacritic?

Yeah!

 

 

I know what I'm getting, day one:

(I already had a 360 before so some obvious ones were already in my collection)

Braid

Geometry Wars 1 & 2

Bomberman Live

Soul Calibur 4

Lost Oddysey

Halo 3 (I'm not a Fan, but how can you own a 360 and not own the Flagship game)

Gears of War

 

Unless you are going to pay for Live, I would advise against it

I would not advise against it. Halo 1, 2 and 3 are my favourite singleplayer FPS games out there. The story is one of my favourite game stories of the last 10 - 15 years. Even the mighty Halflife is inferior for me. To much of other games had bits in to make the game longer(looking at you HL2) Halo3 was the pinnacle and best Halo. 2nd fave game ever.

360 gets a price cut that was mildly well advertised while ps3 bearly gets any 40GB shipments [the 399 one] leaving the consumers with a choice of a 500$ system or one for half the price. And you call the sales amazing?? MS isn't caring about profit from the 360.. they have made it quite clear so far that their real goal is to brutal beat down ps3's sales.

IMHO and probably the opinions of many others.. the PS3 has the edge in game line-up for from now until mid 09......

And do you really think the 360 will out sell the ps3 during the holidays???

 

MS's price point is what's causing the current 360 success.... that and ps3's lack of a 399 or lower console and....

Yes, yes, the Xbox 360 is awesome and there has never been a better time to own one, especially for RPG fans. Sales lately have also been very positive for the console, and it seems to have reversed its negative momentum for the time being, and regained a foothold as a competitor.

The sky is blue, grass green.

The game I'm most looking forward to personally, is Alan Wake.

The best game I've played lately is Braid.

The game that I want really bad that's close to release is Tales of Vesperia.

The best game the system will ever get is, I hope, Resident Evil 5.

I really couldn't ask for more enjoyment from a console. It's great like a DS, except it's got all the console strengths and games to go with it.

Since you asked: The reason people would bring up the PS3 in this topic? Overcompenstaion and/or inferiority complex. The PS3 is also great. So is the Wii for that matter. Don't bogart the limelite in an appreciation topic.

Have you seen RE5? It's living off RE4 hype but it really should be called RE 4.5.

me personally i prefer the ps3 line up and i think that anyone who buys the ps3 at the moment is a complete douche with the new improved sku coming out very soon.

the ps'3 sales are expected to fall before such a change takes place

Im Sorry that you're the fifth person to mention the PS3 in a thread that has nothing to do with the PS3. You should have been done with the thread before you posted.

 



Tease.
