He says 360 is his the number one best console made. Clearly he is talking about hardware wise and not game wise.

lol but who would have thought the 360 has more games released, more high scoring games, more exclusives released, and the ps3 it only has 3 more high scoring exclusives... Seems like the 360 obliterates the ps3 in games...

and who would have thought that the 360 has not had an exclusive this whole year. or that most of those so called more games actually released before the ps3 was even out. who would have thought that even though xbox is selling more in north america that ps3 is outselling everything on a week to week basis worldwide. who would have thought that after 2 years of mediocre games, they could turn the table and become the top leader in exclusives. ps3 has done more than enough enough to secure the #2 spot. now its just of matter of when.

well it's no secret that the majority thinks of the ps3 as an inferior console compared to the 360. carmack is just one of the majority.

And Ps3 has games that surpass that of 360, your point? There is more to hardware than just graphics...

People can argue about which systems in history have had better games, but I'll say one thing about the PS3 and 360: they certainly seem to have longevity on the market. Old as they may be, no one is talking about phasing them out and everybody wants to develop for them.

I'll probably say that by the end of this gen, but for right now I feel the gamecube is the second best console evah.

He is John Carmack's evil twin brother. Instead of being an expert programmer he's a expert car thief.

I think Dreamcast is great for that time.... but Final fantasy 8 killed dreamcast at that time for releasing on the same date 9.9.99 in north amerika..... as for 360 vs ps3.... who cares about developer because the most important is the consumer who pays for it.....

Hardware wise, 360 is not in the same ball park as Ps3.

Hardware as in how well it's made sure but power wise they are very much in the same ball park.

Maybe its just the phrasing but you do realize how weak of an arguement this is right? It would be like saying "Alan Wake looks better than Resistance:FoM, 360 is hardware king!"

Quake-Con. He was giving a press conference at Quake-Con.

We're going to have a thread, every time someone makes one, linking low end gaming sites twisting his words out of context with sensationalist headlines.

In that link you provided TcJohn Carmack said the 360 is the best console while the PS3 is the second best.

Where are people getting Carmack said the 360 is the best console ever? All I remember him stated was that he likes deveoping for it more (he even said it was weaker than the PS3.)

Well that would have to be either PS1 or PS2. SNES 3rd of course. Then ... maybe PS3 .... after N64?

I am not sure what your reply had to do with my post. I was just saying I agree with John Carmack that the 360 is better then the PS3.
