Microsoft

Microsoft isn't afraid to play dirty in the console wars, such as being willing to spend millions of dollars for exclusive games or downloadable content. Sure, it might hurt the company's image, but damned if it doesn't benefit gamers. Games like Grand Theft Auto IVandFallout 3 can look forward to exclusive content thanks to daddy's wallet, and Final Fantasy XIII is coming out on the system because of a check Microsoft wrote to Square. moan, do whatever you want, but their actions are of huge benefit to the casual and hardcore alike.

Games

The Xbox 360 has the best video games of any next-generation console. It's true, and trying to argue against it makes you sound like an idiot. The sheer number of games is astounding, and even if a game isn't an exclusive, the 360 version is usually superior to its competition. Developers know how to develop for the console, and most create their games for it before porting it over to the PS3, and until developers begin spending more time on this process, the other versions always suffer from it.

These are just two of the reasons more after the jump

Those third party games are coming/available on the ps3 as well...and who really cares about "exclusive" DLC when the game(s) aren't relavent...you're really going to buy the DLC for GTA4? No...the reasons to own a 360:

1.) Gears 2

2.) Fable 2

3.) Bootleg knockoff Miis (joking)

4.) Too Human (ha ha)

5.) Poor Manufacturability (RRoD)

The 360's failure rate is far greater than that of the PS3. This is a well known fact. Stop avoiding reality.

I'm not avoiding reality. I have no way of knowing for certain that your PS3 died. You could be making it up to support your biased perspective. The 360's design/manufacturing problems, however, are well documented. That's reality.

Try to pay attention to the language we've all agreed upon.

You've essentially proven my point for me. Thank you.

You request that I use facts in my argument, but yet you want me to name PS3 exclusives that scored better on a site that merely organizes the opinions of others. Do you see the irony?

Here's my argument: I prefer the PS3 exclusive games to those that are exclusive to the 360. Just like the author of that article, I could say the PS3 has better games and that arguing against such a statement would make you look like an idiot, and it would be just as valid, which isn't really valid at all because, also like the author of the article, it would only be an opinion.

Some of the people here are pretty dense. I suppose that's why I find this forum so amusing.

so you prefer your exclusives to be 6-8 hours long with little or no replay value... i'm looking at you ratchet, uncharted, heavenly sword, lair, folklore, and pretty much every game but mgs4 and warhawk..

they're fun games, well most of them, but idk to each their own i guess.

No it really wouldn't make your argument valid if you said the ps3 has better games, it has a few games that i wish were on the 360 but its pretty common knowledge that the 360's library is far superior to the ps3's. You seem pretty dense though so I dont expect you to understand that, I find you to be pretty amusing

Read my post again and you'll see that, ultimately, I conceded the fact that such an argument for the PS3 would not be valid, just as it's not valid for the 360 given that personal preference is the key variable in this debate.

Reading comprehension is important, mmkay?

Developers know how to develop for the console, and most create their games for it before porting it over to the PS3, and until developers begin spending more time on this process, the other versions always suffer from it.

These are just two of the reasons more after the jump

The "Games" argument is just absurd.

why because its true and you can't argue against it?

No, because it's not true and I can argue against it.

lol...

argue against it, with supporting facts. name 5 ps3 exclusives that got an 80 percent or higher on metacritic.

You've essentially proven my point for me. Thank you.

You request that I use facts in my argument, but yet you want me to name PS3 exclusives that scored better on a site that merely organizes the opinions of others. Do you see the irony?

Here's my argument: I prefer the PS3 exclusive games to those that are exclusive to the 360. Just like the author of that article, I could say the PS3 has better games and that arguing against such a statement would make you look like an idiot, and it would be just as valid, which isn't really valid at all because, also like the author of the article, it would only be an opinion.

Some of the people here are pretty dense. I suppose that's why I find this forum so amusing.

No it really wouldn't make your argument valid if you said the ps3 has better games, it has a few games that i wish were on the 360 but its pretty common knowledge that the 360's library is far superior to the ps3's. You seem pretty dense though so I dont expect you to understand that, I find you to be pretty amusing

Read my post again and you'll see that, ultimately, I conceded the fact that such an argument for the PS3 would not be valid, just as it's not valid for the 360 given that personal preference is the key variable in this debate.

Reading comprehension is important, mmkay?

No matter what you say, the fact still is that the 360 has the better library of games.

Look at metacritic again and then talk to me about reding comprehension, mmkay buddy?

I hate it when cows say this. Especially anymore. I have four other friends who have 360's, and out of the five of us only me and another friends have had problems. They were both launch consoles too. Use another bash already cows please!! Stop trying to make yoursleves feel better about waiting.

What so superior on the 360 Gears? I'm playing it right now and it just makes me laugh. Started Halo3 today and so far as linear at Gears if not more so, so far atleast its Haze like when talking about linear. Go through this path to get to the next battle area then go through this path in the woods to get to the next battle area. I just go the 360 what 4 days ago and its going back come friday after finishing up gears.

Pretty good gameplay in gears, but glitches galore, from enemies landing on my buddies head and just dancing there with him walking around with it on his head lol. To the floors colapsing in that one area and my buddy was just floating with no walkway under him anymore. To the car you have to push not wanting to push forward lol. And the ramp walkways that I couldn't even walk off the edge to get some ammo that was below lol. I had to walk back down to get it even though it was right off the edge. You know invisible walls all over the place in gears.

Graphic wise I want even begin to start. Some places look great but then some places its like wtf happen here. Now after hearing so much about that game and to have actually played it I can now just tone lemmings out sorta about this game. Yall find some of the craziest things to nit pick on when in reality yall are praising one of the most non polished games I've ever had the oppurtunity to play.

Well I can rest easy now knowing I'm not missing nothing at all come friday when I take it back. I'm ready for the Socom beta, Resistance 2 beta, Motorstorm 2, LBP. Heck I learned I have no time for the 360. And yall can keep the rpg's aswell as far as I'm concerned lol. So without those I'm missing a total of 1 game by the end of the year and that would be gears2 if I was going to keep it. Yall have a good day :)

[QUOTE="NSR34GTR"]Microsoft

Microsoft isn't afraid to play dirty in the console wars, such as being willing to spend millions of dollars for exclusive games or downloadable content. Sure, it might hurt the company's image, but damned if it doesn't benefit gamers. Games like Grand Theft Auto IVandFallout 3 can look forward to exclusive content thanks to daddy's wallet, and Final Fantasy XIII is coming out on the system because of a check Microsoft wrote to Square. moan, do whatever you want, but their actions are of huge benefit to the casual and hardcore alike.

why because its true and you can't argue against it?

A games website that is to be taken seriously can't spit out such a stupid statement "The Xbox 360 has the best video games of any next-generation console. It's true, and trying to argue against it makes you sound like an idiot." How about this then, "I've played the so called 'amazing' games for the 360, I found Gears to be a fun experience but not in the long run, Halo 3 is only fun in the offline multiplayer modes and Forza isn't my cup of tea, the only game I would truely want on the 360 is Dead Rising. There are more games on the PS3 and Wii which interest me and are in the genres which I enjoy" I guess that must've just sounded like complete idiocy mustn't it. What is truth is that you cannot say such absurd things, what someone views as enjoyable is down to their own opinion and tastes, not some numbers on a games website which is clearly where gaymer vision got their opinions.

He was talking about reliability. What part of that did you miss? The PS3 has a 2% defect rate. Your system breaking changes nothing. You simply fell within that unlucky 2%. Your system breaking doesn't change the fact that the PS3 is a reliable system.

I am a PC gamer, so I pretty much can't stand MS. So your first point is a negative one for me. I am a PC gamer, so your second point also holds no ground with me. I have a PC and PS3. So there is next to no reason for me to get a 360.

Ok after reading the link.

10. Achievements=worthless to me (same as trophies)

9. Not a big racing fan

8. I don't buy off PSN, what would make you think Live would be any different.

7. I am a PC gamer, nuff said.

6. Own Bioshock for PC, had no interest in Gears, and will get Mass Effect for PC in the near future.

5. :lol: What a joke. Rare.....Who cares? I don't.

4. PSN (not mentioning PC online which destroys anything consoles have to offer)

3. As a PC gamer, I can't stand MS

2. Not when you have a PC. The PS3 looks better game wise (as well as hardware).

1. The future of the PS3 looks a hell of a lot brighter to me than the 360's.

so you prefer your exclusives to be 6-8 hours long with little or no replay value... i'm looking at you ratchet, uncharted, heavenly sword, lair, folklore, and pretty much every game but mgs4 and warhawk..

they're fun games, well most of them, but idk to each their own i guess.

exactly

beside mgs4 the ps3 lineup is pretty shallow compared to the 360

The 360's failure rate is far greater than that of the PS3. This is a well known fact. Stop avoiding reality.

Doesn't change the fact that my PS3 died. Stop avoiding reality.

Bad luck you had man, but the reality is that for around 100 xbox 360 that died, just 1 or 2 ps3 die

You do know the same guy did one for the Wii and PS3 too right? Fail if you were trying to push the 360.
