Want a PS3 or Xbox 360, but Afraid of the Price? Don’t be!

DoylesTown: Many people would love to get into playing videogames, but the price keeps them at bay. And at first glance, it’s a valid assumption. To get started in the current Xbox 360/PS3 generation of gaming when it started would’ve cost a good $800

But when you break it all down and factor in time, if you can come up with that initial scratch, playing videogames is actually a very economical hobby when placed against other popular activities you may already partake in

I spend more money on pot then what i do gamin, and i game loads

And pot enhances the games.
Graphics look better, story is deeper and the music becomes three dimensional and seems to surround you like a blanket but still has the clarity to enable you to almost reach out and pluck individual chords from the air.

Or so a 'friend' told me.

Nothing like reinforcing societies impressions and beliefs about video gamers.

You should be able to get an eighth for less than a full-priced game, though. :D

Edit: was supposed to be a reply ^

It depends

If your going to by a mainly multiplats xbox normally has better or on par versions

If you like to talk to friends but dont want to play the same game as them and deem it an important feature xbox is the way to go

If you like bright colours happy avatars and options put in big squares put in big squares that the blind have no problem seeing xbox is the way to go

If you have soo much money you don't mind paying for your p2p conntection again yearly xbox is the way to go

If you like CoD DLC and cant wait for it xbox is the way to go

If you see the value in over pricing things that are miles cheaper else where xbox is the way to go

If you like shopping and not understanding how much you spent inreality guess what? yes xbox is the way to go

If you like to play casual games and core games with lag xbox is the way to go.

But if you want a built in bluray player a host of exlcusives and diverse genres a web browser a sims like online experience cheaper hardrives free online mulitmedia download capabilities from browser a gaming rental service which gives games avatars discounts etc ps3 is the way to go

Xbox is easily the cheapest option, you can pick up an 360 20gb pre-owned here in the UK for like £60-£70 quid these days. Even after you pay for the Live membership its still cheaper and theres a huge selection of games.

Oh i'm a PS3 owner by the way, but if its about cost and you want to play games then yeah, Xbox.

Games That Were Bad on Release, But Are Now Great

BLG writes, "Some of the most popular games have had a rough start, with some of them being downright unplayable.

Despite that, developers have managed to turn it around for them and make their game worth playing. Here are some games that had a rough start but were pretty great."

Good list..hoped to see Street Fighter 5 there..and it is.

Vits1h ago(Edited 1h ago)

Sea of Thieves... I'm not disagreeing that the game has improved in terms of content. But I feel that the most significant change between now and its release is actually the public perception. Nowadays, most people are aware that the game is a multiplayer PvP-focused experience first and foremost, and not "Black Flag made by Rare". Consequently, people dismissing the whole experience because the single-player aspect is lacking or the story is plain are much less common.

They consider FO 76 & ME Andromeda to be great now 🤭

They aren't going to give more. We are talking about a company that has rereleased an 13 year old game at least 5 times.

Doesn't seem to be that bad of a month. Got a bit of something for everyone.

Please do not support braid anniversary edition. Don't support Phil phish, he's a very despicable person, a a cry baby.

One example

https://youtu.be/yKUGwlFJAH...

Tacoboto1d 19h ago

Wrong developer. Phil Phish was the developer behind Fez.

Jonathan Blow was behind Braid. If you're gonna cancel culture, don't take down the wrong indie...

CrimsonWing691d 10h ago

Man, I don’t know why, but it also irks me when people try to tell others what to do. Fez was an awesome game, I couldn’t care less if the dev was a douche.

This is just extra cringe since the person actually doesn’t know what they’re talking about 🤦‍♂️

remixx1161d 2h ago

Welcome to the internet crimson

shinoff218320h ago(Edited 20h ago)

I wasn't cancel culturing shit. Phil phish is a complete douche. Did you bother to watch the video? Probably not.

I was wrong but call me cancel culture is just plain dumb also

Also crimson.

As you I'm human and we make mistakes. That was a mistake I mixed the games up. Shit happens. So go cringe yourself

Honest mistake, if you can watch that video and support the guy. Then I guess your in the same camp

Tacoboto18h ago

You were wrong and that's that. Don't be so angry.

And yeah, that is a case example of cancel culture. It was a dozen years ago, he's apologized since, had Japanese developers rationalize with his remark, barely has done anything in the industry since Fez, and yet here you are, not even remembering the one game he made...
