X-Play G-Phoria 08: Favorite System

Adam Sessler presents the award for G-Phoria's Favorite System

[Arsenic13]

Uh oh...

[MikeD159]

G4 is taking sides!!!

[SolidSnake93]

They've never done that before have they?

[Overr8ed]

not surprised. they dont talk about system Failures. And GTA shouldnt be best Action, MGS4 is there. And HAlo is Game of the Year in 07, 08 is all MGS4

[La Chance]

go 360 go !

On a more serious note , well it is more popular than the PS3 in the USA.You dont have to be bribed by MSFT or a fanboy to admit that.

Europeens should take example on the american when it comes to gaming :)

edit : oh ! dont jump on me fellow europeens , were one big family....right ? lol

edit 2 : *looks at the disagrees* oh well , looks like were not one big family :( .Never liked you guys anyway.

[yesah]

guys there was like a internet poll, its not g4 deciung

[shazam]

is filled with xbox fans so im not suprized at all about any of the awards.

[JasonPC360PS3Wii]

G4 isn't taking sides, the PS3 just got owned... thats all.

[JWork0825]

That voting percentage for the 360 looks a lot like the failure rate.

[SaiyanFury]

X-Play has a demonstrated dislike of anything Japanese. This is evidenced by almost any JRPG. They liked Dragon Quest VIII, but anything else they seem to dislike unless it bears a resemblance to an American RPG. I've been watching X-Play for a long time and I closely watch their reviews of Japanese games on multiple platforms. They regularly give Japanese games a 3/5 and no higher. Because Japanese games aren't always the most inventive games, they score them with a rating that is "ho-hum". They score JRPGs with lots of text and no spoken dialogue with a relatively low score simply because they don't have the attention span to read text. I started playing most JRPGs on the original PS where RPGs didn't have much spoken dialogue yet may fantastic games appeared. Similar games are on PS2 and will undoubtedly appear on PS3.

Now they generally ignore the PS3 version of games and talk about the 360 versions only. Just a personal observation, but X-Play has an obvious dislike of things Japanese and seem ready to embrace things US-based over Japanese-based.

This is an opinion, but it seems to be consistent. I like spoken dialogue as well, but scoring a game low because reading is required is a cheap shot.

[kingfury]

Fvck Adam Sessler and fvuck G4 for puttin this bullshiet on N4G. I swear if I was on G4 i would raid that bietch for lying ps3 is the best and yall know it

if YALL DISAGREE W/ ME I SWEART IM WHOOPIN YALL ASS

[Arsenic13]

Jesus christ. Why didn't u vote for PS3 then? Dude, go outside. It was voted by users not G4. Blame the amount of 360 Gamers compared to PS3 gamers.

[zapass]

f@ck these rotten xcoxuckas
gaming medias suck the m$ fat c@ck just like foxnews suck the BUSH fat c@ck. they've been selling the POS360 just like the war in irak:

LIES, FAIR AND BALANCED CORRUPTION, GROUP C@CKSUCKING, SELF CONGRATULATING CIRCLE JERK-OFF

2008 belongs to the PS3: period
suck my D!CK sessler and go cash your check you POS 'gaming journalist'

[Shadow Man]

LMAO!! @ kingfury I can't believe you took this so seriously ur so PHOCKING STUPID! Who cares what they think is best is just their opinion IDIOT! Go play ur PS3 BAKA!

[ukilnme]

@ kingfury

I disagreed. LMAO. Good luck trying to kick my a$$ over the internet. It's just sad that you are so butt hurt over this. Must not be a true gamer.

@ dumbass, oops i mean zapass

You are absolutely pathetic. Blind loyalty to a company that does not give a $hit about you.

[morganfell]

He didn't vote for the PS3 because he was gaming it rather than waiting for it to come back from repairs.

[La Chance]

MGS4 and Uncharted came ou last year.
So what game was is playing ???

edit : oh! my bad ! Bet he must be chasing that Nectar in Haze.You go boy !

[morganfell]

? MGS4 came out this year dunce. And Uncharted is worth playing that much. You wouldn't know. Don't talk crap about any 360 title because I probably already own it unless it's some sissy Japanese game where 14 year old androgynous looking boys save the universe. Be warned that the last person that thought I didn't have a 360 and a Wii walked away looking like an ass.

Maybe you are used to game that are good for only one play through because DVD9 doesn't have enough space for anything else.

[zapass]

almost, that's you i don't give a rats ass about
keep sucking, you're doing a heck of a job

[Sonics020]

Well it was voted on by the viewers not them and it only had 33 percent of the vote. Sessler also said that the ps3 was the most powerful console out there.

[toughNAME]

Best Games = Best Console

Is anyone surprised by this?

[STARS]

Your opinion =/= fact.

[La Chance]

33% of the vote...that reminds me something.

lol , how ironic.Must be a magic number for the 360...

[Tarasque]

Only 33%, maybe you need math lessons. 33% out 6 devices is alot. So that means 67% was split between 5 other devices. Nice try though maybe next time.

[La Chance]

euh..nothing.
wrong reply

[Bangadoshish]

Probably polled Xbox.com

[ukilnme]

Are your feelings hurt?

[v1c1ous]

not at all...

[Arsenic13]

No it wont. Hold me V1c1ous! Im scared of the fanboys!

[jack who]

hates owned

[ZombieNinjaPanda]

I've stockpiled em ;)

So I guess the 360 was voted as favorite console? It is the most owned for having a headstart.

[v1c1ous]

:D

[ZombieNinjaPanda]

Okay v1c1ous You got me there buddy. :)

How can I rephrase my sentence? Most owned hardcore system..?

[GameOn]

They said pc is the most owned.

[Fowack]

LOLz and bubbles for you

[deno]

flame suit forget that. I need a flame-thrower!!!!!!!! fight fire with fire!!!!

[rhood022]

Wow, who'd have thought that the 360 would win best system on a fans-choice awards show airing in a country where the 360 has over 11 million owners?

I am totally shocked by this completely irrelevant revelation.

[ZombieNinjaPanda]

^^^

Nice use of Sarcasm =P

[INehalemEXI]

Indeed.

[cmrbe]

its like Japan Voting that the PS3 the better console compare to the x360.

[Tarasque]

Dont riddle your thoughts the ps3 is flunking in japan also. It wouldnt be much more ahead.

[juuken]

Clever. :3
Wow, and look at that hatred Tarasque has for the PS3. I'm sorry dude but the Wii is killing both systems so stop acting as if the 360 is actually ahead or something.

[TheColbertinator]

What about the Wii?Hahahahaha just jokin'

[dkgshiz]

They really do. They didn't like Sony's presentation this E3, they thought the 360 had the best presentation. Its really sad. I bet the bots are going to be on here just bragging it up in about 4 min.

[Arsenic13]

It was voted by USERS, not G4. Its common sense that this is not G4s doing. Open your eyes already, and stop letting fanboyism blind you.

Disagreeing a fact just proves ur an idiot.

[La Chance]

lol , anyone who doesnt agree that the PS3 is the best bla bla bla , power of the cell bla bla bla is wrong ? Geez...

strange world...

[Apotheosis]

G4 has obviously been paid off by Microsoft.

Adam Sessler was obviously given a boat and a new home in Malibu as well as a spaceship so he can travel to Microsoft's secret space station on the dark side of the moon where they have meetings with everyone else they've bought out.

That's it people, there is no way in hell that it could possibly be because the 360 is actually the preferred console by gamers.

Nope, not a chance.

[toughNAME]

I like you Apotheosis

[Arsenic13]

I like how u got a disagree. F**king fanboys.

[Apotheosis]

The fanboys don't.

[cmrbe]

perhaps should get a room :).

[socomnick]

Can I join Im good at rimjobs :)

[poindat]

Not saying one console is better than the other or anything, but this whole G-Phoria thing is flawed.

First, why the f*ck would you do this in August. Most specifically for this award and GOTY. How do you give out GOTY in August? And the voting on the favorite system may have been closer/different if this was done in December of January.

Second, don't let the fans vote. It never works. Halo 3 won GOTY? Really? Because of fanboys. And of course the 360 is going to win favorite system when there are 5 million more 360 owners than PS3 owners and the show is based in the region where the 360 has the biggest lead.

Okay, now I sound like a Sony fanboy, sorry. Both consoles (and all the games) are great, but this awards show is flawed.

[juuken]

Exactly.

[MikeGdaGod]

couldn't say it better myself

[socomnick]

You act as if all those xbox 360 owners do not own ps3s. The reality is that a large number of them do own both consoles because for the most part Xbox 360 owners are true gamers. They own both consoles and know which console is better the xbox 360.

[MikeGdaGod]

you're partly right

i own both systems, but i prefer the ps3. because it has MORE of the games i like. period

[Atomic]

they like defective , old tech hardware?

[La Chance]

they hate watching blu ray movies all the time.
You see I can do it too.

[Arsenic13]

Apparently. Says something magical don't it?

[silverchode]

hate is someones opinion, now defective hardware is a fact.

[Resistance2]

Halo 3 game of the year wat MGS4 is the game of forever. Old x play is better new one svcks

[La Chance]

Halo 3 must surely be more popular than MGS4.

[felidae]

who cares about this sh1t?

i have fun with my ps3.

[v1c1ous]

.

[cmrbe]

everyone has fun with their wii.

[i rule]

i disagreed.............. BRING IT LITTLE MAN

[La Chance]

yeah , that was so ridiculuos lool , I almost laughed out loud when I saw that.
I mean , whats he gonna do ? Gonna come to my house and hit me on the head with a PS3 ? lol.

Very funny, threats on the internet ?! loooool.

[ukilnme]

@ La Chance

He won't hit you over the head with it. He's too busy praying to it and asking that it brings death and destruction to G4. I do believe the PS3 is a great system but this level of fanboyism is just f'ing ridiculous.

[Arsenic13]

Hes gonna...gonna...Type angrily in caps at you.

[IzKyD1331]

Most of the voters are 360 owners anyway, if you own a 360, are you gonna vote for the Wii? no, you vote for which ever system you own

[ukilnme]

Exactly. Why can't those idiot PS3 fanboys figure it out?

[RAM MAGNUMS]

why would they pick 1 right now? The company told you to namecall because you
dont know the power of the ps3. Company knows it can't stop the future.
this is year 2. Year 2. The company needs to sell. G4 always say they dont
take bribes... That are small.
g4 is weird.
Xbox360 feels like 10 years old against a fresh, brand new PS3.
the company has exausted resources. Now nobody watches g4 anymore
thanks to qore. I dont even check g4 for developer interviews.
Thanks to ps3 whenever we see a poonshot or the money shot on porn,
we all say KOJIMA!

G4
out of touch
with reality.

Whats the reason for choosing professionally now?
I remember year 2 for xbox360, GRAW.
that's it.
everbody was waiting for halo3. Rainbow6.
That's it.
in all 3 years of xbox360, I only have 1 question?

How many gigs do you have on your hardrive?

Xbox360 doesn't upgrade. It just stops.
R R O D

[mboojigga]

It was voted by your peers dumb a**. Even with everything you said it still was the best system by the peoples(your peers) votes.

[dro]

this will not go down well! when he talked about the 360 "he said a large libary" which means large libary of games.the truth is the ps3 dose not have as much games the 360 has even tho the ps3 is the most powerful console..obviously the people that voted were putting games into account and that is what console is all about,yh some games might be crap but it still has a bigger libary of games to choose from than the ps3..u can find more rpg's,shooters,adventure games on the 360 than the ps3.don't get me wrong i still prefer the ps3 more than the 360 because i prefer quality consoles that have all the latest technology such as blue ray and what the cell produces,but u just have to admit the 360 has more games than the ps3 for now,but ps3 games have better graphics..e.g uncharted,mgs4.gt5p,killzone2. ..

[ukilnme]

My favorite system is the PSWii60. I wonder how many disagrees I will get this time.

[juuken]

That's cool because it's your preference.
People just want you to pick a side...? o.o

[ukilnme]

I can't pick a side as far as the consoles go. I appreciate them all for what they have to offer.

[Fowack]

I gave you bubbles and agrees to make up for what those evil fanboys took from you!

[ukilnme]

@ SIX-0-3

Who are you calling a caveman? Oh wait...

[PS3rd the Turd]

: )

[SonySoldierEternaL]

8============================= D

see if it fits

[juuken]

...Can we all say biased?

[juuken]

Stupid, flawed, and biased.

Edit: Maybe you don't speak for them. But don't you think this video is a little biased? Yes, and of course it keeps N4G spinning. Lolz, and the 360 fanatics slamming disagrees.

[ukilnme]

What?

Edit:

LOL, come on juuken. I can't hear you in a post. Seriuously though I don't speak for the 360 fanatics because I'm not one of them. I will admit though that I tend to bag on the PS3 fanatics more than 360 fanatics.

Edit 2:

@ La Chance

I think she is very secure with her gaming choices. The PS3 is a fine system.

@ juuken

You know flamebait is what keeps N4G going.

Edit 3:

I don't think it is biased at all. I don't know who they received votes from though. Maybe they asked 100 Xbox 360 owners and 33 of them voted for it and the others voted for the other systems. We may never know.

[La Chance]

shes a bit paranoid.

[REDZEV]

Monopoly,Incomplete console, Incomplete Hidef format and promises,promises,promises that have become lies or big let downs!!!!

Sony has let all gamers down this generation the only ones that stand behind the POS3 and Sony are the dilusional fanboys who cling onto their childhood memorys of such great PS titles such as FFVII, MGS SERIES and Gran turismo. So all of you fanatical sony fanboys do your self a favor and ask santa clause this christmas for a 360 or a wii or hell maybe both systems for that matter because I really feel sorry for you guys that your not getting a true gaming expierence. Sonys a complete failure this generation. live with it. deal with it. and then move on and then game on.

[ukilnme]

@ REDZEV

Just leave please.

[Irishrocket69]

@ REDZEV,
I think so to, people would rather sink with the ship than admit that their ship is sinking.

@ ukilme,
Your avatar is appropriate, SONY is going the same way as the caveman.

@ Junky,
Did you get a 360 yet? If so lets get to gaming! Stop eating the cookies!

[N4M3L355]

really?

[GiantEnemyCrab]

How interesting because it is my favorite too!

Xbox 360 rocks!

EDIT: Oh good to see Halo still kicking ass as well!

[PoorDroids]

The part where he said PS3 was the most powerful system made me chuckle. Then why did it lose? LOL. Funny how people always try and make the underdog look better! :) We know, PS3 sucks. Don't sugar-coat it!

[GiantEnemyCrab]

Xbox was more powerful than the PS2 but it didn't mean squat. Games and lots of them are where it's at and the 360 has it.

LOL@The year of the PS3.

[PoorDroids]

Very true. PS2 had SH1T hardware, but it sold a hell of a lot more, and had more games (same with PS1 vs N64, and we all know N64 was better and had better games, but it sold less). Hardware seems to be the LAST key to success. Heck, just look at the Pii.

But, although I did enjoy PS2 quite a bit, I did like my Xbox games a whole hell of a lot more.

Sony won because of name recognition. And now that Sony's name is worthless to all gamers, they are having a much harder time this gen.

Arrogance FTL.

[enjoi187]

BOOOMMMMSSSHHHHAACCKKKLLAAAKKK AAAA

[silverchode]

majority wins, quit saying g4 is biased you stupid fanboys.

[bsquwhere]

They had the old X-Play where they reviewed MGS 3, they spent the whole episode making fun of the series. They may have gave it a 4 out of 5. But come on, this went beyond their usual antics. I have alot of respect for Adam. Morgan comes off as a pain in the @$$.

[thehitman]

Doesnt matter about the results just pay attention to comments. The votes are biased. As long as they acknowledged that the ps3 is the most advanced/strongest system out there that all that matters.

[wicked]

You have been eating too much of that Sony pie. All 3 system have their strengths & weaknesses.

[Dacapn]

I just realized they're going by user votes for all these "insert word" of the year awards, which means deranged fanboys finally get a voice lol. I'll just wait till IGN or Gamespot does a professional one. Until then, I suppose people will flame for the next 24 hours haha.

[robotnik]

there are many kids with xbox these days.

[dragonhart1]

umm idk how 360 won...well i know more people have them (including me) but more people are staring to mve to the ps3 and leave the 360(including me). i also dont get how halo 3 won goty. i had halo 3 and got really bored with it and traded it in...for mgs4 which im still playing now, in my opion ps3 and msgs4 shouldve won. then again it is an opion.

[davidazzle]

Does anyone else play games just for fun? I don't really care what console wins in any competition I just love playing games. If theres a good game that is exclusive to one console I'll just buy the console to play the game. Done deal. Stay in school. :D

-David

[turdhaggis]

errr not quite...
PC is rather quite ahead with that one..!
