Controller is more comfortable, Halo 3, Gears 2 and (I don't but I understand why it would make it more attractive to gamers in like lebanon where real games are beyond expensive or impossible to find) the 360 has been hacked.

[QUOTE="JTH_22"]

It's called personal preferrence, what's there to understand? Some people prefer the controller, XboxLive whether you think so or not is seen as superior to PSN by alot of people (and for the record I've had more connection problems out of my PS3 than my 360 though neither are bad), if you don't have a gaming PC then the only way you'll play Gears, Halo, Mass Effect, ect... is if you have a 360.

What? It's called being wrong, what's there to understand? You can't really argue with the points I made.

because II suppose games like nUts and bolts, Gears 2, Halo 3, FOrza 2, Kameo ELements of Power, and so many more dont exist anymore?

1. There are no good games that aren't on PC/PS3

Seriously... none. I can't think of one

2. It is more expensive when you factor in all the stuff you need to buy

3. The online has lag

4. Zero exclusive GOTYs

5. No MGS

6. No Blu Ray

7. The only reason I can think of is because you can play with friends. That's a bad reason IMO

diamondmaniac12

1. Halo 3, Fable 2, Gears of War 2, Forza 2, GTAIV DLC.

2.This usually only matters to kids or someone who cant afford gaming anyways.

3. So does PC and PSN.

4. Who cares? Fanboys?

5. Not true.

6. Blu Ray is not exclusive to PS3.

7. Just because you have no friends doesn't make it a bad reason.

Bring on your stubborn fanboyness and useless threads. Okay thanks.

I don't get why Gamespot hasn't made it so users can't make threads/posts until they've reached, at least, level seven.

No, I figured no good can come out of someone who doesn't know the difference between by and buy. Is it as bad as I assumed it would be?

Seriously... none. I can't think of one See spreadsheet.

It is more expensive when you factor in all the stuff you need to buy All you really need is a hard drive, everything else is optional.

The online has lag True, same can be said for PC, Wii, etc.I have played certain PC and Wii games that had lag.

Zero exclusive GOTYs True, but Gears of War for it's time was exclusive and got GOTY 2006.

No MGS There's a spinoff called Metal Gear Solid: Rising, and it's funny how cows diss it, but blame Halo for having spinoffs.

No Blu Ray Most pointless thing ever, a console is meant for games 1st and everything else after it, and it's not needed.

The only reason I can think of is because you can play with friends. That's a bad reason IMO Try harder.

There are no good games that aren't on PC/PS3 Well, if you don't game on PC, then what?

Seriously... none. I can't think of one You are not thinking hard enough then.

It is more expensive when you factor in all the stuff you need to buy I don't NEED to buy anything but the system.

The online has lag All online has some lag. When I was on LIVE, It was barely noticable for me.

Zero exclusive GOTYs I don't think the number of GOTY is a reason people chose a system.

No MGSI hate MGS, and going by the attach rate on PS3, most owners didn't want it either. Like almost any game.

No Blu Ray So?

The only reason I can think of is because you can play with friends. That's a bad reason IMO Actually, this is a great reason. Gaming started out social, and it's more fun when gaming with friends. And LIVE helps it happen.

It's all a matter of opinion. I never had any lag online honestly, I suppose it's all up to what kind of internet you have, none ever on my end. There's plenty of ups and downs on the 360, just as there are on any other console. I never saw points in why threads like this are thrown out :/

You're absolutely right, why did I buy my 360?

Hell, why did I buy my PS3 or Wii?

Why? Because I like to game on all 3 consoles.

Because it has some great exclusives obviously, not enough for me to want one, but more than enough for me to see why others do want one. I would hate having to pay for live but they obviously have games that make it worth it for others to pay up.

Believe it or not there are millions of people that don't see why anyone would buy a video game console whatsoever, opinions (Your whole post) are not really debatable. Who's gonna argue with they guy that shouts out "I LIKE RED!"

There are no good games that aren't on PC/PS3- Don't have a PS3 or Gaming PC

Seriously... none. I can't think of one Sucks to be you

It is more expensive when you factor in all the stuff you need to buy Bought 360 and been playing since.So...

The online has lag All online has lag PSN is not immune

Zero exclusive GOTYs See the first thing I wrote? So Gears of War because of that for me.

No MGS Woopie

No Blu Ray See last answer.^

The only reason I can think of is because you can play with friends. That's a bad reason IMO Friends aren't bad...Mabey get some and find out huh?

There are no good games that aren't on PC/PS3 - Gears of War 2, Halo 3, Forza 2, Dirt 2

Seriously... none. I can't think of one - See Above

It is more expensive when you factor in all the stuff you need to buy - 360 + 4 Games + Gold Live cost me $500. PS3 Slim cost $500 by itself

4 Games where Halo 3, gears 1, gears 2 and Forza 2

The online has lag

So does PS3 and PC and wii...

Zero exclusive GOTYs - And? not everyone likes the game of the year

No MGS - 1 game? i never played the series so its not interesting to me

No Blu Ray - So? bluray is way to expensive and overrated. DVD's look fine, im not forking out that much money to replace my dvd collection

The only reason I can think of is because you can play with friends. That's a bad reason IMO - Yeah cause firends are for losers... oh wait

How so? Tell me why 360 needs Blu Ray, and saying no exclusives is laughable, I have played those exclusives and couldn't disagree with you more, while there are bad ones, there are also good ones, but you must be blind not to see them. And System Wars uses spreadsheets in case you didn't know. You're not even trying, I've seen these complaints many times and they don't work, and if you don't see why, LOL at you.

There are good games that are on it. Just none that you like (which I really doubt). Anytime someone says there are no fun games for an opposing system on SW, it's usually BS because those same people will claim they beat an exclusive title like MGS4 or GeoW2. Why beat a game when it's not fun?

The problem with your logic is that it can easily be used for any system.

Let's use the PS3 as an example.

Lacks the excellent games that are found only on the PC/360

Its more expensive when you consider that you have to pick up a PS2 and its accessories to have BC.

No Halo

Does not offer a cheaper package for budget minded gamers who only want to play single-player next gen games.

The Slim no longer supports the abililty to install Linux and offers no form of BC.

Netflix is not offered for the PS3

Sony constantly screws their fanbase by removing features from every succesive hardware revision of the PS3.

The PS3 has a smaller and less varied library than the 360.

Square Enix has offered more support to the 360.

The Metal Gear series is no longer exclusive to the PS3.

Lacks the 360 exclusive DLC for Grand Theft Auto.

See how pointless this really is? If anyone really wanted too, they could point out the issues that each system has to prove a point. Reality is, people happen to like the 360 because of its price and the games that are offered on it.

Really, people used to have excellent arguments for their system of choice. Now its just pathetic...

Some one need to make a pic that has an old packard-bell navigator pc and put the words under it "they still make you" that way evertime a thread like this or the ones that say that PSN is better than live or Live is better than PSN i can put it up for the world to see. Yet they still make threads like this and the reasons why people should buy a xbox 360 get worse and worse. Be orignial PLEASE!!!!!!!!
