For Those Who Haven't, It's Time To "Jump In." *56k, no way*

Ok BioShock here's a question for you, What can i guy like me, a guy who loves action adventure games with a lot of puzzles (Zelda, Metroid, God of War) get with the 360?SuperMario_46

[QUOTE="TekkenMaster606"]

Build me a PC for around $550 INCLUDING MONITOR and a copy of WINDOWS that will run ALL PC GAMES on the market. Because an Xbox 360 high definition setup requires Xbox 360 - $350, VGA cable - $40, and I left about $150 for a monitor, give or take a few dollars. So let's see it hermits.

I don't want none of that 'But it does more **** We're talking about playing the games on Xbox 360 that are 'also on the PC'.

you can run modern games with an x1600. it all depends on the settings.

Add 200 more dollars than a console, can it?

I don't want low settings I want a true next gen experience. Can a PC offer that to me at the price of a console?

II-FBIsniper-II

that depends what you mean by next-gen. PCs have been doing Hi def, for example, since the mid 90s...

another great thread made by you Bio :D good job ;) :D btw I already jumped in 8)club-sandwich

Thanks, clubby!:D

Dammit, your username always makes me hungry, grrr!

Anyways, continue enjoying the best console ever! :)

But... what if we have a PC that can play all the worthwhile 360 games that will be ported?

I mean, several of those titles are either multi-platform or will be ported to PC. The only worthwhile game that I wouldn't be able to get my hands on is Mass Effect. But, were that to come to PC, what reason would someone like me to get a 360?

Gladly, this is just a thread to celebrate the Xbox 360 as a whole. Yes, you could play some on PC and PS3, but looking at the latest NPD's, people are playing on Xbox 360, my friend. :D

But why are sales important to me, the consumer?

So games are built from the ground up for PC and optimized well, instead of crappy cash-ins. If the consoles continue to do better than the developers won't do as good of a job on PC.

But one would only need to look at games like Counter-Strike, Quake, Unreal Tournament, Starcraft, Warcraft as well as upcoming games like Crysis, Hellgate, Starcraft II or whatever example you'd like to use to show that PC gaming is still a favorite for developers and consumers alike.

I usually game on PC, because I prefer kb/m, but the Xbox 360 is a great little console for the price and for people who don't feel like building their own PC. I understand where you're coming from. I really don't consider PC as competition to the console market though.

I highly doubt the 360 is the best console ever. SNES IMO, nothing will top that and I still play the same one I've had since the 90's without any major issues 8)

It's currently more diverse than any other current gen console.

I gotta agree with you. SNES was just godly though.

What if i don't like shooter, RPG's and racing games.

BTW don't get me wrong i think this thread is great, it just seems like the 360 is not for me.

If I wanted people to be pushing their ideas and opinions onto me, I'd go to church.TalesofRaGnArOk

At least video games are fun - while church is the exact opposite of fun.

Well, it currently has more RPG's and racers.

As i said i don't like them, and as i also said before, don't get me wrong but the 360 is not for me and this thread just proves it.

Heh, I always thought you weren't a fanboy. These kind of posts are just filled to the brim with fanboyism.

Also, I will be "jumping in" when the hardware problems are fixed, really only for Rare games and Bioshock.

He's a fanboy ecause he made a thread praising 360 games? WTF? To not be a fanboy does he have to make one for the Wii and PS3 too?

Yeah, he can check my scores for games for other consoles and PC if he thinks I'm a fanboy.

He shouldn't have made any threads at all. "Praising" a console is fanboyism in itself. Play your games and stop trying to convince other people what to buy.

Um, no.:| Just appreciate a great console with great games instead of calling names.

I just find it incredibly annoying when people tell me what I should like and what I shouldn't.

Master Chief has owned me and oh boy did it feel good.

No. Sorry. Not yet. I'm gonna "Play B3yond" first.bstarter29

I will support MS just so I can support Rare. Hopefully Banjo Threeie will be as good as the originals.

Why does every gamer not own an Xbox 360? BioShockOwnz

Not enough exclusive games that appeal to me (Mass Effect and Too Human are pretty much the only exlcusives on that list that I'd want to play) and unreliable hardware.

If ME turns out to be one of Bioware's best games (and if it will take multiple years to port to the PC), then I might buy one...but I'll wait and see if they release a newer model or something first.

Indeed. :P

Sorry but the reason I don't haven't/don't want to "Jump In" is because this appeals to me so much more. :)
