[QUOTE="Toriko42"]I guess that makes sense having all system but I play 360/Wii/DS/PSP/PC and a PS3 is just way too expensive for me to consider it. I'd buy it in a second with a drop thoughIrick_cb

Obviously you are not hardcore enough.

:P

:cry: I guess I'm forever destined to be a lame gamer

[QUOTE="Leo-Magic"][QUOTE="Dibdibdobdobo"]

Must be Hardcore to have the awesome quality games like MGS which is AAAAE exclusive, Hardcore to have the highest price because Casuals only buy 360 because its cheap like the Wii rather than PS3 (BR FTW and Other awesome Multi-Media devices). Though you could say that PS3 is least Hardcore as it has the least games worth playing, It has most Multi-Media Devices rather than being a Gaming Machine (Jack of all trades and master of none). Has terrible tacked on Motion Controls (Six-axis) and the price is laughable.

Whats 360 got? Nothing. No quality AAAAE games (more of everything else though). Has no Blu-Ray and other Multi-media devices (Cheaper Price) and has no Motion Controls because pads suckz.

So is PS3 for Hardcores? Hardcore silly people or Hardcores.

go back to ur cave. fanboy.

Insults FTW. No points though.

Its no use to convince other people that a system is more "hardcore" or "casual" than other...everyone interprets his own taste, and if they are having fun, who are we to stop that?

I chose PlayStation, mainly because of the graphics, in my opinion, and the games that gives me more interest are in this system.... im more adapted to the controller as well

I just thought of that scene from Billy Madison, when Billy answers a question in the Jeopardy-like game and the MC goes off on a spiel about how his incoherent ramblings made everyone in the crowd dumber "And may God have merci on your soul." lol

Funny thing is you dont argue with my points. Is PS3 more hardcore because it has one AAAAE. Is it more hardcore because of price due to Multi-Media Devices. Is it more Hardcore because it has Six-Axis which is useless rather than being a controller. My points where brought over dumb on a purpose! Problem is people tend to just see that rather than argue which no one has.

Well one person's idea of "Harcore" could be different than yours. I will admit that the PS3 is a good value system, considering the Blu-ray, free online and built-in wi-fi, but most my friends own 360's and it has the best party chat system available this generation (if you play games where communication is key for victory), so that is why I chose to get one. Do I play that often? No. But I feel the Xbox 360 offers serious gamers a better online experience when playing with their friends.

Console gaming, in general, is "casual". If your motivating factor is to have the best possible controls, graphics, and sound, neither the PS3 nor the 360 qualify.

I find it funny when people consider themselves hardcore, while what they really do is sit in front of a TV all day, mumbling/screaming, "die, you b**** DIE!"

seriously, what's so hardcore about it?

Go to war, race a real car, do something that actually matters, then you can say you are hardcore.

I like 360, but I don't ever consider any game "hardcore".

PC - hardcore

360 - hardcore/casual

Wii - casual

PS3 - hum......lack of identity?? :P

PAL360

wii is probably more casual then xbox360 buts its aimed for a larger group of people 6-70 i would guess

unlike the xbox360 which is aimed for people of the age of 12-36

wii is the only real casual and hardcore console this gen just like ps2 was last gen, thats also why it sold more then the hardcore consoles

Someone who buys a 360 or PS3 would most probably have 'core games' in mind......

Neither is aimed at "hardcore" No one cares for hardcore gamers. There isn't enough money in it. Catering for stuck up "hardcore" gamers is the best way to lose money.

Sony, MS and Nintendo aimf or gamers in general. period.

A hardcare gamer could care less for useless multimedia devices. A true hardcore gamer would want PS2 backwards compatibility to play his games, not some crappy DVD's that look a bit crisper.Toriko42

Part of what you said there is true, but the whole bit about"DVDs that look a bit crisper" part made me laugh loudly. It always amuses me when people try to downgrade the quality of the blu-ray format.

Well I agree Blu Ray is awesome, but some people just don't notice very much of a difference with most movies.

Both were for the harcore with Wii being for the casuals, but lately Microsoft have been going a bit casual (avatars, natal, you're in the movies) while Sony have stayed Hardcore and even their motion control is better suited to the hardcore then project Natal is.

I somewhat agree, but in my opinion a lot of those people choose not to see a difference, because of some type of hate towards the format.

This doesn't even make sense. PS3 is for the hardcore because it has the least good exclusives, it's overpriced, and because it has Blu-Ray? :shock: Doolz2024
Now that the PS3 will be getting their own version of the "Wiimote" wand thingy and they've presented it to the public using a Wii type casual game it's clear the PS3 is going more casual. As usual, Sony is allowing their successful competitors to dictate their business model, a recipe for failure.

yup, I'm guilty of being one of those that just don't care about how crisp my movies are.

Not because I hate it, but because I'm a girl... ha

I love my Xbox.
