way to ignore what he's saying, PC alone is a better option and xbox is in no way the best of both worlds, oc for only a few hundred dollars is way better but as always quality = more expensive. pc + ps3 is a great extra for those games consoles exclusive.

With a $200 360 you can play most of the best PC games and best PS3 games. The 360 is the best standalone system by far, taking into account price and game library.

Most of the best PC games? Like what :| inb4TheWitcher2

Witcher 2, Left 4 Dead series, metro 2033 etc.

They are some of the best that's for sure. If there was anything better to play on PC I would play them on my perfectly capable PC.

It was a great console until halo 3 and cod4 died after that it just got worse and worse. If you like the term hardcore that is fine but to me that word is a joke.

[QUOTE="PurpleMan5000"][QUOTE="whiskeystrike"]

its a fact there are more professional opinions out there that agree with his than yours

therefore 360 is factually better.

whiskeystrike

That's flawed logic.

Yap

For the sake of arguining though (and SW in general) the general critic opinion holds a lot more weight than some randomers opinion.

You can rate the PS3 library higher which is fair enough but the critics disagree. The same critics who agreed the PS2 had the best library now say the 360 does. It was accepted back then, its no different now. Not everyone has to agree, but thats just the way it is.

Yeah but the 360 has been a better console this gen. It even destroyed the PS3 last year. More years of goodness from the 360 = better console.

Maybe next gen cow.

Journeys GOTY last year made up for PS3's lack of exclsives and Gears already flopped this year, sorry. :lol: That was the only exclusive earmarked for the 360 and Ni no Kuni and GOW:A outscored it (Beyond 2 Souls and TLOU aren't even released yet lol). :cool: Lems living in a constant state of denial. #Jumpout

LOLOLOLOL No, a 2 hour PSN game does not make up for all the flops. 360 won last year, deal with it.

The PS3 wins this year hands down.

I don't actually care about either I just find the arguments amusing. Only reason the PS3 hasn't been sold off like the 360 is for some Japanese support and to transfer stuff from my PS3 to my Vita.

If it's accepted by this forum that metacritic and whatever else is "ownage" here then yeah whatever. TC has harped on about reality and well in reality the system wars arguments don't matter.

-Most high rated game library (fact)

-More hardware and software sales  than the PS3 (fact)

-Better multiplat games (fact)

-Most  amount of downloadable content including games, movies, music and TV (fact)

- Most online features (fact)

-Most  comfortable controller (popular  opinion)

-Faster  download speeds and no mandatory installs(fact)

I'm  not sure how any true gamer can overlook these facts. Most Sony fans will say that none of this matters, it's all about exclusives. However if you look at the exclusive games on both platforms over 90 on Metacriric, they have the exact same amount. When you factor in 360/PC games the PS3 doesn't get the 360 comes out on top with more high rated games.

Sony fans can hate the 360 all you want but the 360 is technically a superior console based on facts. 

 

Miketheman83

Well it was for me, hands down. Opinion will vary especially on a site full of foreign kiddies. The PS3 will eventually past the XBox 360 in units sold. Software sales may never happen however. Everything is pretty much spot on though.

[QUOTE="Miketheman83"] Well in the case of people saying PS3 + PC is better than the 360 they are using one $300 system and one $700 system to demean a $200 system. Give me a break. For $200 you can have the best of both worlds.

Miketheman83

way to ignore what he's saying, PC alone is a better option and xbox is in no way the best of both worlds, oc for only a few hundred dollars is way better but as always quality = more expensive. pc + ps3 is a great extra for those games consoles exclusive.

With a $200 360 you can play most of the best PC games and best PS3 games. The 360 is the best standalone system by far, taking into account price and game library.

wrong, PC IS. When someone ask which is the best car you don't answer a crap one because its cheaper.

Better graphics doesn't make it a better standalone system. If it did more than 100 people would play PC games. A couple hundred more dollars for barely noticeable better graphics and I would miss out on all the great console games? No thanks.

If the graphics increase is only barely noticeable to you then i think the money would be better spent on eye surgery anyway. There's many more great PC exclusives.

Then make a cheaper budget gaming PC then, that's the idea of PC gaming, there's a tier for every price point. If you can't find a price that gives a worthy graphical increase compared to price then you aren't looking hard enough.

Price isn't the only reason I'm not a PC gamer. The disadvantages outweigh the advantages.

wrong, PC IS. When someone ask which is the best car you don't answer a crap one because its cheaper.

Better graphics doesn't make it a better standalone system. If it did more than 100 people would play PC games. A couple hundred more dollars for barely noticeable better graphics and I would miss out on all the great console games? No thanks.

I take it as instead of going for a suburu wrx sti you would go for a ford fiesta. And many prefer to have a luxury devices as for 100 people playing pc there are currently 4.5 million users online on steam. here take a look http://store.steampowered.com/

also why do you think pc gamers only have a pc, unlike you many have all platorms

[QUOTE="Miketheman83"][QUOTE="hoosier7"][QUOTE="Miketheman83"] It's noticeable...not $500 noticeable.

Then make a cheaper budget gaming PC then, that's the idea of PC gaming, there's a tier for every price point. If you can't find a price that gives a worthy graphical increase compared to price then you aren't looking hard enough.

Price isn't the only reason I'm not a PC gamer. The disadvantages outweigh the advantages.

For you maybe but the post we're talking about is what is the best standalone system. Objectively it's PC and i'm not even a big PC gamer.

It was definately the most expensive one for me... mainly due to its shoddy hardware and online fees. 2012 was when I woke up and realized it wasn't worth it and just didn't get it fixed after the 8th one died. (Been a owner since Nov 2005)

But no, 2008 was the last great year for the 360, then MS just decided they didn't care about good exlusive rpgs anymore.

Which disadvantages exactly?

I could name of quite a few -Games- Console games seem to have higher budgets and bigger dev teams. Just more interesting games in general. -Technical issues-Three out of ten games will always have some sort of technical issues on the PC. Granted they are easy to figure out, but it's a headache none the less. -Screen size- I'd rather play on my 55" flat screen than my 20" monitor - Price- I can't justify spending a ridiculous amount of money for the barely significant enhancements - Controller- I prefer using a controller to game. K/b and mouse is old school. I don't like it.

You had eight xboxs die on you? Lol why do I find that hard to believe.

Believe it

1. Launch 2005 console Died in a week

Sent in for repair

2. Got it back, lasted till 2007 and then red ringed again

3. Purchased the Elite, lasted 3.5 years then red ringed

4 and 5. Purchased a Slim had audio dropping over HDMI, exchanged in store for new one

Lasted 2.5 years and the HDMI went out completely

6 and 7. Bought a new Slim Arcade, died after 5 days of use, exchanged at Best Buy

8. Worked for 3 months and died, had it exchanged through geeksquad

seriously, I have had the worst luck with the Crapbox 360. And don't start trying to say I must have not taken care of it, it sits on an open glass shelf next to my TV and if I move it into another room it goes in the TV stands doorless cabinet thats atlest 2 feet wide, 2.5 feet deep and 2 feet wide, it's a nice square.

Meanwhile, I have had 2 PS3's (the original launch model died of YLOD within the first week, sony exchanged with a brand new one) Technically 3 because I purchased the Slim and moved my 60gb one upstairs so I had a blu ray player too and it had the benefit of playing some games while in bed. And one Wii.

To also add, I have had 1 DS, 1 DS lite, 1 3DS, 1 XL, 1 PSP 1000, 1 PSP 2000, 1 PS Vita so far too. Only reason for getting newer ones was to upgrade to better hardware, none of them ever died, ever had scratches. 

When all my other systems have had such low failure rates and the 360 was really high, I blame MS for it's CRAPPY hardware. I just stopped playing games with my friends on 360, told them they can play with me on PC or PS3 and I'm not dumping more money on MS.
