Forums - Gaming - UK Gurdian Reckons 360 Is The Best Console.

Couldnt resist this one as the Guardian is one of the most respected newspapers in the UK.

It is basically saying that the PS3 is for die hard Sony fans only and the 360 is the best gaming console out there.

Heres the story here.

 

 

Which games console is right for you?

Should you go for an Xbox, Nintendo or PlayStation 3 – or play on your computer?

Microsoft's Xbox 360

Nintendo Wii

With its TV remote-style controller that can be wielded like a bat, sword or even a gun, the Wii offers a perfect introduction to videogames. But the graphics aren't as pretty as its two more technologically advanced rivals, and really ground-breaking Wii games come along very infrequently.

 

Microsoft Xbox 360 (pictured)

If you fancy something more heavyweight with the best games portfolio and aren't scared of using a "joypad" to control the action (primarily with your thumbs), the Xbox has the edge over Sony's PS3. But the £150 Arcade version is all but useless without a hard disk – go for the £200 Elite model.

 

Sony PlayStation 3

Whereas the PlayStation 2 once dominated its rivals, the PS3 is a disappointment for gamers. Former PlayStation exclusives such as Tomb Raider and Grand Theft Auto are now available for rival consoles from the day of release and, at £250, PS3 is still too pricey. An attractive purchase only for those with an obsession with the PlayStation brand.

So basicly... Because of the price?

If they say so...



                            

Wait, Tomb Raider and GTA were Sony exclusive franchises? That's news to me.

I don't care how respected they are, there analysis is simply shitty.



 

 

Also, GTA was never Sony exclusive.

(not 100% sure about TR)



                            

I like how they only need two sentences per console. Nice and deep.

They were originally.
It also says games library is better.

Really? When were they exclusive franchises? Certainly not before this generation.

And they're a newspaper, they probably couldn't tell good videogames from their own ass.



 

 

360 games library was better but now it isn't the case anymore. And PS3 is also the best value for money...

it pains me to consider these guys pro-journalists

How can Tomb raider and GTA were exclusives?





funny thing is to some people RE4 was PS2 exclusive, now don't make me laugh the PS2 version was crap and was a cheapassed port of the gamecube one.



I live for the burn...and the sting of pleasure...
I live for the sword, the steel, and the gun...
