Gamervision: Top Ten Reasons to Own an Xbox 360

GV reports:

''I'm sick and tired of people complaining about the "Console Wars." Sure, it was good and fun when I was seven, but hearing people write off the Wii as a "child's toy" or say that there isn't anything worth buying on the PlayStation 3 is annoying and I am sick of the ignorance. So I have taken it upon myself to go through all of the current generation (consoles and handhelds) and give the ten best reasons each one is worth owning.

The list isn't in any real order, more of a "loose order," so before you're at my throat about something being number two when it should really be number three realize that these aren't in any real order, just sort of ascending in importance. Oh, and before any idiots call me a fanboy for this, here is the Top Ten Reasons to Own a PS3 and the Top Ten Reasons to Own a Wii.''

[Silogon]

I always love when a site calls its readers idiots for not agreeing with their opinions and list.

"xbox 360 has the best games of any next gen system and trying to argue this fact makes you look like an idiot"

So, I guess our opinions don't count anymore. This site just got put on my never go there list.

-xbox doubles as a great space heater for college dorm room and or small apartments

-there are some useful spare parts inside the xbox 360 when it breaks down

-it can thaw out a good size steak in about 15 min if left on for more than an hour

-it's home to bought, exclusive, downloadable content. This shows Mmicrosoft is working for the gamer!

-It alows you into sneak peak full game betas before the real game comes out on PC with better graphics, content and gameplay.

-Home to an actual arcade in your living room; circa 1983 since they don't have any good arcade games past this year.

-Cheap, easy to work on hardware ensures you're already getting the max potential out of the system so they can drop a new system into your lap any day now. This is the kind of dedication gamers love to spend their money on cause they don't feel cheated out of not seeing the full potential of the system realised. "cough" ps3 "cough"

Those are the 7 they forgot to add.

I laughed so hard I think that I poo'd a little...Bubbles for you sir!

[GiantEnemyCrab]

Don't you have some baby to punch or puppy to kick Siligon? LOL

[KBDuB]

It's not an opinion that the 360 has the best games. It's fact. And, hint I said, the best gameS(that's plural). The PS3 has probably the best game in MGS4. But, as a whole, the 360 has the better games.

[littletad]

First of all, this is a blog. This isn't news. If I wanted to see someone's love for a system expressed through rhetoric I'd see a Breakfast comment or head over to Gamefaqs.

[InMyOpinion]

Or you could just check out one of Hiphopgamers posts.

[Rock Bottom]

I want it for Too Human.

[Rocky87]

1. Gears of War
2. Gears of War
3. Gears of War
4. Gears of War
5. Gears of War
6. Gears of War
7. Gears of War
8. Gears of War
9. Gears of War
10. Gears of War

[TheColbertinator]

I prefer Gears for the Mac and PC.Better resolution and keyboard and mouse make the game much more smooth than the 360 version.

In my opinion of course

[TheColbertinator]

If your gonna buy a 360,buy it for Xbox Live,Mass Effect,and Ninja Gaiden 2.Other than that,get a PC for Gears

[Jellzy]

You think?! I agree with you that Gears is alot better on the PC due to higher resolutions and better controls in the mouse and keyboard, but also think Mass Effect on the PC is better for similiar reasons, plus the improved UI.

[TheColbertinator]

Okay...Wait...Is that it?

Mass Effect was the only reason I bought 360 and if its on PC...I may have just wasted my money

Thanks for putting me down man.

[juuken]

Ninja Gaiden 2, and a few rpg's. Other than that, nothing else interests me.

[TheColbertinator]

RPG department has Eternal Sonata,Lost Odyssey,Star Ocean 4,Infinite Undiscovery,Fable 2 and the best game on 360,Mass Effect.

[littletad]

Your comment sounds devilishly close to 360 supporting. Shocking...

[juuken]

Your comment sounds devilishly close to jumping the gun. In case you haven't seen my comments lately, I still support the PS3 and Sony.

EDIT: Assuming that I didn't hit the disagree button?

[littletad]

Had nothing to do with you. So I'm not jumping the gun or criticizing your own. And I know very well you support the ps3. I assume you hit disagree over that, so who was really jumping the gun?

[LossTheEarthbreaker]

Ninja Gaiden 2 is a huge disappointment. And buggy. I haven't been able to bring myself to continue playing it.

Crackdown,
Dead Rising,
Forza 2,
Dead or Alive 4,
Halo 3,
Tales of Vesperia,
Blue Dragon,
Infinite Undiscovery (should be great, but we'll see),
Mass Effect (if you don't have a pretty high-end PC),
Lost Odyssey,
Star Ocean 4,
Banjo-Kazooie,
Viva Piñata,
Gears of War 2 (inevitably a better version heading to PC, but whatever),
Project Gotham Racing 3 and 4 (haven't played 4 because I don't see much difference from 3 and I'm not too hardcore a racing fan),
Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved 2 (amazing sequel),
Braid (very unique and refreshing XBLA game),
Ikaruga and Rez HD and Soul Calibur and Symphony of the Night (if you haven't played them on other systems, I know SotN is on PSN, too),
Saints Row (was even better before GTAIV came out),
Kameo (some people liked this game a lot),
Beautiful Katamari (if you aren't burnt out on Katamari from PS2),
Halo Wars,
and Castle Crashers (multiplayer from the guys who did Alien Hominid, should be good).

I'm not saying you'd like all of those, but there's a ton of great games right there that mostly can't be found on other systems.

[TheColbertinator]

@LossTheEarthbreaker

Thats a good list but I really prefer most shooters to be on PC.Trust me,Gears 1 on PC with an Nvidia 8800 is amazing.The only games I care about on that list you had was Forza 2 and PGR4.Along with Mass Effect.

I'm not really an XBLA kind of person cause I prefer full 15-40 hour games.Sorry.

@LittleTad

I have both PS3 and 360 so I can't decide between both.Its pretty hard.

[Dmitry Orlov]

You forgot the upcomin' Fable 2 ^_^

[disrupt3r]

What genius thought it was a good idea to put the words 'micro' and 'soft' together to make a business name :/

sounds pretty manly. lol

[ThatCanadianGuy]

That's bill gates for ya ;)

[Zeevious]

Actually I heard it was his wife . . . On their honeymoon.

She said she wanted Hardware.

Bill said he just had software.

She said: "Yes . . . and I can see it's microsoft."

That's when I invested in microsoft stock & started:

[Rocky87]

I prefer controlling Marcus with my xbox pad ...

[LeonSKennedy4Life]

On the 360 version or PC? It works with both...

PC version is much better though...especially because Epic knows how to do online for the PC.

[Stickguy259]

It costs a lot more to buy a PC that can run Gears of War and Mass Effect than it does to just buy the Xbox 360.

But if you already have a powerful enough PC, be my guest.

[LightningPS3]

still has the best current library of games this gen.

[Shane Kim]

No it doesn't. Bioshock is coming to PS3, Mass Effect could be good if you could actually play it. Gears and Halo 3 are the only AAA titles. After 3 years.

[GiantEnemyCrab]

Best games, best online service, best media connectivity, best marketplace. It's the reason why I own one.

[LonewolfXIII]

Best Games (what few there are)
Best Online (yes because we all like to be called gay 50k times in a halo match)
Best Media Connectivity(PS3 has the same connectivity only its free AND we have bluray)
Best Marketplace( Ill give you Geometry wars but if you try to tell me Uno online is worth $8 then your kidding yourself)

Sorry I couldnt help myself

[KBDuB]

Nope. 360 still has the best games library. I play Mass Effect all the time, it's great. =) And, there is more great games on the 360 than just Gears and Halo. There is plenty more.

I mean, you do know that, too. They are doing something right, to catch your attention with pretty much erything that they do. And, the games are good or you wouldn't be in every 360 article, eh?

[iheartdestr0y]

I love seeing people flip out when something doesn't agree with em.

[Cajun Chicken]

http://www.gamervision.com/...

PS3's version contains a lot more logic.

[LeonSKennedy4Life]

Personally, I'll stick with the PSN. It's growing much faster, the features are being added rapidly, and many games have virtually no LAG.

[kingme71]

As much as there is a fanboy/console war going on daily, there is just as big a contingency that complains about the fanboy/console war on a daily basis.

It's like in high school, the non conforming kids wind up conforming to the non conformists if that makes any sense.

[MetalProxy]

If I sold my 360 (again) that list wouldnt make my buy it again. besides Too Human flop'd, like a whale droped from the sky.

[divideby0]

this dude is a total and complete nit wit.
he says he hates the console wars, but yet read the title of the article....
if he hates the console wars..why dont he just drink a cup of sthu and enjoy playing games

[SixZeroFour]

did you go to the link that cajun posted @7

he does a list for ps3 too

[MvmntInGrn]

That was a dumb article meant to do nothing but feed the insecure 360 owners ego.

What did they think this would make someone buy a 360?

ALSO this IS NOT NEWS, ITS OPINION!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Its N4G (News for Gamers) not OC4G (Opinionated Crap for Gamers)

[ActionBastard]

There are PS3 counters(and Wii as well)to each one of the points made. I wouldn't really call them reasons for owning, but rather, benefits from owning. For example...

10. Trophy support
9. GT5
8. The PS Store and Video Store- Fat Princess, The Last Guy, PJ Eden
7. Killzone 2
6. Bioshock, R2 and if EA has anything to do say about it, Mass Effect
5. Skipped just like the original "story"
4.PSN
3. Sony
2. Games
1. The Future

See how easy that was. Now let's start posting real NEWS and not the same old ramblings of fanatics. None of it matters. Buy what you like. And stop trying to justify it.

[MvmntInGrn]

Agreed.

[Perjoss]

I'd keep quiet about trophies if i were you, how many games support them now? 6, 7? they are quite laughable, if they were gonna rip off the idea at least do it properly.

[MvmntInGrn]

I didn't know there was an achievement defense force...

[juuken]

Achievement Defense Force activate!

Future games will support trophies Perjoss so your comment is quite laughable to begin with.

Lol, and Perjoss, I will be owning all three soon from now so uh...yeah? Instead of trying to spell doom and gloom for the trophy system, why don't you enjoy all three consoles as you stated?

[Perjoss]

heh, I'm not a defense force, I was just pointing out a fact, I feel sorry for you sony fanboys, you guys keep on fighting the fight, I will just keep on enjoying all 3 of my 'current gen' consoles, fanboys make me laugh, I guess some people just love to argue.

But I will say 1 more thing about Achievements, its one good thing that MS have pulled off this gen, and it cant be denied seeing as how some of the biggest names in gaming have copied them (Valve, Sony and Blizzard).

[GiantEnemyCrab]

You know they did a version for the PS3 as well.. So take the used car salesmen pitch to that article.

No sale.

[ActionBastard]

"None of it matters. Buy what you like. And stop trying to justify it."

Reading is FUNdemental.

[slyrunner]

Xbox does have good games, but not every game is good> i mean, look at the ps2, its library is vast, yet there's only about 267 something games out of the millions they have.ps3 has fewer games then ms, yet they have really good games throughout there library. and Nintendo on the other hand has a crap load of games (not more then xbox) yet they r mostly kiddie and crappy(except for 1st party games, they r amazing)i dont think people should look at the biggest library of games a console has, but yet,look at the library of games that satisfy your taste. thats what i think

[Cajun Chicken]

Simply for me, if Earth Defence Force 2017, Crackdown, Halo series, Dead Rising, Rez HD and Geometry Wars were on the PS3, I wouldn't need my 360.
Those are the WORST selling points on a article/blog/post I have ever seen.

[360rxorz]

Hahahah the only console to own is the 360.

[Chubear]

... actually.. no, no it won't.

[AIi_The_Brit]

or if your not poor

all 3

like me

[sak500]

jeezus another article about 360 plagued by sony trolls. DOnt you guys have any other work to do? what about your future proof console? Go play it.

[juuken]

And 360 fans don't do the same?
Don't be hypocritical.

[karlostomy]

Once again I agree.

It's sad that n4g has gone to the Sony trolls like there's no tomorrow.

I was kind of hoping that after MGS4 they would all shut up, but it's getting worse than ever.

Just witness Juuken's desperation... 4 negative comments and counting! deary me.....

[littletad]

Hard to make that argument when your clearly a Sony fan on a 360 news piece.

It amazes me someone can own all systems, proclaim neutrality one day, and boast Sony while flaming on 360 supporters the rest. If that's not trolling and flip flopping, I don't know what is.

And yes juuken, this comment was meant for you :)

[LossTheEarthbreaker]

Juuken, the same guy would've said the same thing probably in a PS3 article where fanboys like you come in and flame it to hell in "support" of 360.

Also, why do you assume we're being hypocritical? What if we really aren't the 360 fanboys you assume everyone here is and aren't trolling and flaming PS3 articles?

Maybe the original poster was simply complaining about something that is an obvious problem and not scheming to do the same thing in a PS3 article. You don't have to bite his head off for a truthful observation, nor get defensive when he expresses dislike for sony trolls.

[juuken]

Okay...seeing that 360 owners are ganging up on me at the moment, let me tell you a little story about my stand in the console war.

1. Back in 2007, I recently purchased a 60gb PS3 with backward capabilities. I held on to the promises Sony made for the system and believed that the PS3 would pull through. But I was in fact very disappointed in the fact that Sony had failed on those promises and justifying a PS3 was very hard during that time. I only had one game for the console and was seconds away from selling it and risking to get a 360 because of the usual comments.

'The PS3 has no games!'
'The PS3 is only a bluray player!'
'You wasted $800.00 bucks for that garbage? The 360 has all the games!'
'The 360 has the best online service in history!'

I felt that Sony had let me down as a consumer and they touted this stuff as the second coming. I have stated many times that I was quite upset with Sony's arrogance back in 2007.

2. As the year 2008 approached, and I saw that the PS3 was starting to gain momentum, pushing 1st party games, and pushing ahead with their firmwar updates, my opinions began to change. I started to realize that I didn't waste that money for a bluray player; that the PS3 was a gaming console and I should treat it as such.

I started buying more games for it, and started playing on it more often because back in 2007, I barely touched my PS3. I hated the old interface and I hated the fact things were happening slowly.

I'm glad that I didn't sell my PS3 because it would have been the worst mistake in my entire life.

3. I enjoyed Ninja Gaiden Sigma on the PS3, and when I heard NG2 was only on the 360, it annoyed me. But I wanted to play this game, so I decided to ask my uncle for an XBox 360 as a graduation gift. Plus, I heard some good things about Lost Oddssey so I wanted to try that as well.

4. I have stated on numerous occasions that I do not completely hate the 360. The 360 does have a good online service and some great games, but the RROD stopped me from buying that first. If it was a more reliable console, I would have bought that first because I like trying new things. The RROD issue was so rampant in 2007 that it scared the crap out of me. I did not want a console that was going to break in my house within a month or a year and then I would have to go through the headache of replacing it. That's why I held off until I was sure the issues were slowly being resolved.

I criticize Microsoft because they need to get their acts together. We all saw what arrogance did to Sony in 2007 and the same thing will happen with Microsoft if they keep acting that way. While I don't like Microsoft's practices when it comes to business, I think them being in the console war does, in a way pushes Sony to be much stronger.

5. The reason why I say things about 360 owners is because of the fact that they make the 360 sound like a perfect console, that it can never go wrong. Heaven forbid someone says something about it, the person is attacked and torn to shreds. I can admit the PS3 has it's faults. Firmware update 2.4 should have came with the PS3 when it first launched, Sony shouldn't have paraded with Home when it wasn't ready, and they shouldn't have sprouted that bullsh*t about 4D graphics. If I can admit all of that, then how is it that 360 owners such as karl. PoG, and others can't admit that their console is not *perfect*? It's a good system without the RROD issues, or the scratched disks issues but it has it's faults.

6. Perhaps if you people would stop judging me and at least get to know my side of this console war, you would see that I am not pulling bullsh*t from my ass. I meant every word of it and I have no reason to lie or hide my feelings about it. The PS3 is my preference and it will always be my preference because it has some really good games.

Your preference is the 360, and mine is the PS3. But don't expect me to sit back and not present an argument for the PS3.

That's all I have to say about that, and I am done with this article.

Goodday gentlemen.

[Stickguy259]

In an article for Xbox 360 players? Perhaps if you weren't the one starting the arguments people would be more willing to listen to you, but as of now, you're starting the arguments.

I will say, N4G is definetly full of fanboys from both Xbox and Sony, but he Sony ones are much more prevelant from what I've seen. To be fair, I've only been at this site for about a two and a half weeks, but as of right now, Sony ones are much more outspoken.

[juuken]

What exactly did I start?

I only said I was getting a 360 for just a few rpg's and Ninja Gaiden 2 and I received ten disagrees for that. What, because I'm not into Gears of War? Because I'm not fond of Halo?

I was being honest when I said nothing else interested me and ten people ganged up on me with disagrees.

I didn't start a fight with anyone when I said that, now did I?

That's why you see that comment there.

Maybe you need to read first before you assume I was starting a fight.

360 fans ought to stop being hypocritical. They claim PS3 fans come here on their articles when most of them do the same thing. That's one of the few things I said.

[karlostomy]

I can't believe I actually read that wall of text of yours.

But surprisingly you acknowledge some points I never thought you would!
What did it take to make you talk so sensibly?
Was it 10 360 fans ganging up on you? Tsk tsk.

Anyway, just for the record, I have acknowldged many times that the 360 is NOT perfect. And I acknowledge that the ps3 is NOT a complete dog!

-In numerous prior posts i have lamented the 360 RROD problem
-In numerous prior posts I have congratulated Sony on MGS4
-In numerous prior posts I have acknowledged the increased ps3 sales this year

But, at the end of the day, the 360 is the underdog and has delivered MORE than what MS promised, in terms of games.

Contrast this to the ps3, which promised the earth, was touted as the second coming of christ, yet is struggling to match the 360 in most areas except bluray capacity!

The 360 is FAR from perfect, but SONY was just ARROGANT before during and after the release of the ps3!

[juuken]

"I can't believe I actually read that wall of text of yours."

Because it was the truth. Good that you read it because it was very detailed and just destroyed every piece of your argument.

"But surprisingly you acknowledge some points I never thought you would!"

I'm glad I surprised you because unlike you, I can put up a good argument.

"What did it take to make you talk so sensibly?"

My brain. I didn't get a college degree for the sake of a degree. My brain got me there. Unlike you, I can think for myself. Unlike you, I don't need people to defend me because I can defend myself.

"Was it 10 360 fans ganging up on you? Tsk tsk."

No, it was my ability to defend myself when people bully others just because the person doesn't agree with them.

"Anyway, just for the record, I have acknowldged many times that the 360 is NOT perfect. And I acknowledge that the ps3 is NOT a complete dog!"

And yet, you have flamed/attacked the PS3 on numerous occasions, citing VG Chartz as gospel when you know damn well the PS3 is catching up to the 360 in terms of sales. Do you think I'm stupid karl? You are one of those many people who made the 360 sound like it was the most perfect console ever made. You have excused the RROD issues, saying that you never had it, as if the problem never existed. Just because you never had it, doesn't mean that others didn't go through it.

"-In numerous prior posts i have lamented the 360 RROD problem
-In numerous prior posts I have congratulated Sony on MGS4
-In numerous prior posts I have acknowledged the increased ps3 sales this year"

And in numerous other posts, you have touted the 360 as a perfect console.

"But, at the end of the day, the 360 is the underdog and has delivered MORE than what MS promised, in terms of games."

Yes, while achieving the RROD, disk scratching, and not delivering on first party games. 1st party games sell consoles, not 3rd party. MGS4 was the exception because Sony bundled the game as well as Konami.

While the 360 does have more games, a lot of them are really, reallly, REALLY bad in terms of scores. But of course, the PS3 had some bad games as well but they were nowhere as bad as the 360.

http://www.metacritic.com/g...

"Contrast this to the ps3, which promised the earth, was touted as the second coming of christ, yet is struggling to match the 360 in most areas except bluray capacity!"

And yes it was. I acknowledged that in my *wall of text*. The PS3 is not *struggling* as you so put it. It reached those numbers a LOT faster than the 360. What do you think will happen when Socom, God of War III, Little Big Planet, Killzone 2, and Resistance 2 hits? Those games will boost PS3 sales because most people who still own PS2's were waiting for games like God of War III and Socom. And on top of that, Sony has secret games to announce?

Why can't you, for once in your life acknowledge that the PS3 has come a long way since 2007? Mistakes were made in 2007 but I think Sony has done a great job addressing those mistakes and learning from them.

"The 360 is FAR from perfect, but SONY was just ARROGANT before during and after the release of the ps3!"

I can show you many articles in which Microsoft was very arrogant towards Sony. I find it hypocritical that they would attack Sony for Home when their IPTV isn't out yet and they're still looking for a provider. I find it particularly annoying to see how they're depending so much on Sony's 3rd party games to satisfy 360 owners when they should be pushing for 1st party games and...I don't know...INNOVATION?!

Neither system is perfect, but you can see which company is really trying their hardest to deliver on their promises. As Hirai has stated many times in his interviews, Sony has a lot of work to do on the PS3.

And it's just beginning.

Give it up karl, because I believe this conversation has run it's course. Believe what you want to believe and I will believe what I want to believe.

The PS3 is making a huge comeback and that's something to applaud.

[karlostomy]

with your wall of text.

Yeh, Juuken I also have a university education.
Makes me wonder though why your lecturers didn't instruct you in making short concise statements, instead of writing 2000 word essays of linguistic fluff.

Anyway, Juuken, it seems despite the fact I made acknowledgements of my own, you just ignored them and went on another angry rant.

But what else is new on planet 'Juuken'

[juuken]

"There you go again
with your wall of text."

And yet, as a college graduate, you could not come up with a rebuttal of your own. For someone with a college degree, you sure don't know how to spell certain words correctly. I found a couple of words you should have reviewed before you posted your comment.

"Yeh, Juuken I also have a university education."

Good for you.

"Makes me wonder though why your lecturers didn't instruct you in making short concise statements, instead of writing 2000 word essays of linguistic fluff."

It makes me wonder why you could not argue against my 2000 word essay. It shows a lot about who you are karl.

"Anyway, Juuken, it seems despite the fact I made acknowledgements of my own, you just ignored them and went on another angry rant."

I didn't go into another angry rant. I argued against your short *concise* reply with facts. It amazes me how you weren't able to prove me wrong.

"But what else is new on planet 'Juuken'"

What else is new in the delusional world of karl? I see that you still have Hitler as your avatar. Did you not know that he was a mass murderer who killed millions of Jews? Did you not know that he had loads of potential to be a decent citizen but instead he sought power for his own personal glory?

One has to shake their head karl.

And we're both out a bubbles. A pity really.

MY FAVORITE GENRE. JRPG.

Blue Dragon
Lost Odyssey
Tales of Vesparia
Infinite Undiscovery
The Last Remnant
Star Ocean 4

Hey look! I'm already at 6! I guess for RPG in general calling Fable 2 another reason to town the console would be appropriate. Sony needs to get it together when it comes to RPGs. I know this is supposed to be the year of the PS3 and I'll be picking up LBP and Motorstorm, but the PS2 OWNED 2006 with an all-out RPG line-up. The 360 seems to be following the trend, we'll see what happens.

P.S. Next year, Sony seems to be back on track with White Knight, FFvsXIII and I'll be getting the PS3 version of FFXIII. But I'm really tired of waiting.

[ThatCanadianGuy]

And yet with all those RPG's 360 still got outsold most of last year,and damn near all of this year.I guess JRPGS/RPGS arent so hot anymore.

[LossTheEarthbreaker]

Who f'ing cares which system sells more other than the companies selling them? You guy should probably shift your focus to games instead of your precious console that you're desperate to find justification of your purchase for.

That's still only 2.5 RPG's on the PS3. I'm hoping more come out, too, like Dragon Quest, but I'm not missing anything because I have a PC and all three consoles.

I'm looking forward to FFVSXIII and White Knight Story, too. And I think the Last Remnant will be on PS3, also.

MS seems to have done a good job of getting those titles onto the system.

[jerethdagryphon]

opinionated waste of time i CAN DO ONE FOR PS3 Bubt i have better things to do

[Pain]

But I dont need any reason to have bought 'my worth every pennies CND $$ 650 dollar PS3.'

And I didnt need any for the PS2 and i paid 600 at launch for it and I Worked that pig for every penny till FFXI killed it. (Ran off HDD & Dust killed it)

As long as it 'USED" its worth the pennies who cares. but reason to own things ? No.

these Reasons to own crap articles are getting lame.

[Horny]

I got a 360 for Halo Multiplayer and games like Gears and Mass Effect.
I gotta say Achievements are addicting. They make you want to complete the single player and get everything out of the game and not just hop on multiplayer. X Box Live is more User friendly than PSN as well. MS did everything right besides hardware and aquire more studios.

But...
I still have more games on PS3 and I think Sony has a better variety of games and better exclusives.

[TheColbertinator]

Good post.I got all 3 consoles along with a Mac and a PC.So I agree with you on a good comment.

Bubble+

[SixZeroFour]

yea, i like playing fps on the 360 controller...even over the keyboard and mouse, even tho its way better

ps3's got some awesome looking games coming out, but that controller just doesnt feel right

i signed up for a small EA NHL 08 tourney the the AMPED YOUR GAME NATIONAL GAMING TOUR thinking it was going to be on the 360 (signup sheet asked for gamertag) but ended up playing on the ps3 cause of lack of consoles...anyways, while i was playing, i usually ended up playing at the palm under my thumb when skating up and the trigger felt so weird

anyways, im going off topic, i like xbox's controller button placement which is why im gunna stick with it...bought my 360 at what i think was the peak of the RROD carnage...lmao 2006

Reason 3 is the main reason why I will NEVER get a 360. I love JRPGs but I won't buy a 360 for them. I would rather not play them.

I know that makes me sound like a fanboy but a principles a principle.

those reasons are why i got an xbox 360. oh and exclusives like dead rising etc...

first of all this isnt an article about the ps3 sales or applauding them. second of all quit attacking a user on a xbox article when you are a sony fanboy girl whatever you are. and for the love of god quit your use of the word hypocritical- you a sony fanperson in a 360 article right now flamin it. oh and for the record-95% of your posts are in 360 articles have a nice day. doesnt seem so college educated to me.......
