You need batteries for every console. If we're going to include battery price, we may as well include how much our electric bill adds up with the average console power consumption.

Batteries in the controllers? Oh well. What do you expect for a cheap console.

You're the one who didn't think he should even include the price of a PC monitor because it was too long ago!

.... should we include the price of an HDTV? because monitors are generally cheeper then TVs.

I'm suprised no one brought that up sooner. Well, I did, but I deleted my post to see if someone else would. Anyway, you can get a 26" 1080p monitor for about $120. You're sitting right if front of it, so size doesn't matter as much. How much will it cost for an HDTV for viewing from across the room? If adding the cost of a monitor to a PC, then adding the cost of an HDTV to a console is fair game.

I actually would, but since the LCD cost for the 360 and PS3 would cancel each other out, it wouldn't amount to anything.

[QUOTE="dsmccracken"]Show me where lemmings call 360/PC games exclusive to 360, THEN we can talk.

I'll take two hits of whatever you are smoking.

Most thread getting over run by lemmings now have them saying M$ exclusive rather then 360 exclusive.

But the truth is NO hermit would want to be associated with any lemming any day. They're not gonna say M$ to put the 360 games library in their count. If that were the case, there wouldn't 360 loyalists and PC loyalists they would all be 1 group of microsoft loyalists and the world would end.

THIS IS SYSTEM WARS NOT COMPANY WARS. It's not M$ vs Sony. It's PS3 vs Wii vs 360 vs PC. END OF DISCUSSION.

And EVERY lemming on the first page of the thread completely misunderstood the point the TC was making. He was saying that YOU LEMMING are trying to include the PC library into the 360's library because the games are M$ exclusive. He wasn't trying to pit the PC and PS3 against the 360...READING COMPREHENSION FTW.

See my last post. If we're contrasting 360 and PS3 costs, an HDTV would cancel each other out, making it pointless.

Exclusives are usually what define console experience.Irick_cb

Not this gen. Check out the highest-rated games (between the PS3 and 360).

Most of them aren't exclusives.

But you don't even need a coslty rg to play these game is all I'm saying. Lemming do like to say that every cow owns a $5000 rig, which just blows my mind. No matter how many times it's said they just don't listen.

the ONLY thing I think SW can agree on is crysis's graphical prowess. other then that it's all hypocrits and fanboys. with a few logical thinking people thrown in there.

[QUOTE="dsmccracken"][QUOTE="Irick_cb"]

Yeah, identical.

You know, except for the games.

I said nearly identical, emphasis on nearly... exclusives count for a small % of the total library of either system. Further, the difference in exclusives basically cancel each other out, coming down to tastes... so yeah, as a general gaming experience, nearly identical. You know?

But they aren't identical.

Not in the least.

The only thing even similar about them is that they are not the wii.

Multiplats make up a very small percentage of my library, sense few of them are worth playing.

Exclusives are usually what define console experience.

You are unable to distinguish between an objective argument and a subjective argument. Objective: the libraries for the 2 consoles. Subjective: YOUR library for YOUR console. We can't have an intelligible debate over YOUR specific library of games, dude! Exclusives only make up a small portion of the PS3 library, that's just a fact. As for what defines the console experience, exclusives are a dying breed. I'm not saying that they don't matter, or are irrelevant, but I am saying that they matter less than ever before in any gaming gen... and it's getting worse. Exclusives are falling left and right, and have been all gen. You can lament the fact, but there's no denying it. What we're left with is a small handful, and a small handful of debates praising such titans of the industry as LBP and Heavenly Bloody Sword. Be real now, are these the games that had you shaking in anticipation pre-launch? The general cow consensus of mooing pre-gen were about 4 exclusive franchises: MGS, FF, DMC, and GT, and to a lesser extent Tekken. And what's happened? You got your AAAAE in MGS4, but FF and DMC were lost, and GT is still nowhere to be seen 4 years into gen. So you've all exaggerated (both here and to yourselves) the importance of these lesser titles, and convince yourselves that exclusives are still where it's at. Resistence? Please, it's a fine FPS, but NO ONE dished out $800+ at launch for Resistence, Motorstorm, etc.

The truth is that MS should be selling much more due to the price point. If the 360 had all of the best benefits, it would be selling at a higher price. By the way, Home doesn't have Facebook or Twitter. We use the built in web browser for that. ;)

Saying that a PC needs any console to combat the 360's offerings does. Same with the PS3, it is more then capable of a stand alone assault.

Even if you had a super cheap PC, it would still take that plus the PS3 for a cow to dismiss the PC/360 games as "simply multiplats." So a cheap PC that runs... what? $500-$600 pust a $400 PS3 to compete against a $250 360? Is that really the argument cows want to make, after it took all this time to bring that price down to NEAR respectability?

He was saying that YOU LEMMING are trying to include the PC library into the 360's library because the games are M$ exclusive. He wasn't trying to pit the PC and PS3 against the 360...READING COMPREHENSION FTW.

We comprehend... do you? And I quote "He was saying that YOU LEMMING are trying to include the PC library into the 360's library because the games are M$ exclusive." If the game is in the 360's library, why wouldn't a lemming include it... um... in the 360 library?

[QUOTE="Irick_cb"]

[QUOTE="dsmccracken"] I said nearly identical, emphasis on nearly... exclusives count for a small % of the total library of either system. Further, the difference in exclusives basically cancel each other out, coming down to tastes... so yeah, as a general gaming experience, nearly identical. You know?dsmccracken

But they aren't identical.

Not in the least.

The only thing even similar about them is that they are not the wii.

Multiplats make up a very small percentage of my library, sense few of them are worth playing.

Exclusives are usually what define console experience.

You are unable to distinguish between an objective argument and a subjective argument. Objective: the libraries for the 2 consoles. Subjective: YOUR library for YOUR console. We can't have an intelligible debate over YOUR specific library of games, dude! Exclusives only make up a small portion of the PS3 library, that's just a fact.

As for what defines the console experience, exclusives are a dying breed. I'm not saying that they don't matter, or are irrelevant, but I am saying that they matter less than ever before in any gaming gen... and it's getting worse. Exclusives are falling left and right, and have been all gen. You can lament the fact, but there's no denying it. What we're left with is a small handful, and a small handful of debates praising such titans of the industry as LBP and Heavenly Bloody Sword. Be real now, are these the games that had you shaking in anticipation pre-launch? The general cow consensus of mooing pre-gen were about 4 exclusive franchises: MGS, FF, DMC, and GT, and to a lesser extent Tekken. And what's happened? You got your AAAAE in MGS4, but FF and DMC were lost, and GT is still nowhere to be seen 4 years into gen.

So you've all exaggerated (both here and to yourselves) the importance of these lesser titles, and convince yourselves that exclusives are still where it's at. Resistence? Please, it's a fine FPS, but NO ONE dished out $800+ at launch for Resistence, Motorstorm, etc.

There's your spacing.

I'll take two hits of whatever you are smoking.

Irick_cb

Math requires ganga?

Saying that a PC needs any console to combat the 360's offerings does. Same with the PS3, it is more then capable of a stand alone assault.

If that were true (of the PS3), then we wouldn't be here. A stand alone PS3 makes every PC/360 game effectively (but not technically) exclusive, which frankly makes the PS3 library cry uncle.

But I can. And you would most certainly consider me a cow no?

That's the point.

because you are, you support Sony in every thing they do and you attack Microsoft in every thing they do in the console arena, I'm a lemming but i own a ps3 and soon will own a Wii again and i don't claim to not be a lemming or to be unbiased like you seem to constantly.

Since you admit to being the lemming we all know you are, that instantly flaws any of your arguements as they will all be of a biased nature. To make a truely great arguement you would need to be as objective as possable. Which you CAN'T do due to how blindly you follow M$.

The funny thing is you assume i like Resistance and Moterstorm.

Losing those exclusives really wasn't a big deal for me, i know Tekken at least will play most true to arcade on the PS3 as that is what the Arcade board uses.

I own all three systems, and i payed the same for my 360 and my first PS3.

I have no attachment to either in the way of initial investment and in fact should be discriminating against PS3, but i don't because the exclusives truly are worth it.

Microsoft first party studios simply can not put out the same quality and the same amount of quality titles as Sony first party.

I just found it funny you argue that either the PS3 or the PC needs any other compliment to take on the 360.

It is truly a laughable prospect.

The fact remains that a high percentage of cows are probably able to play these game if they so choose. It's doesn't take an uber rig to play the games. AND THEY CAN PLAY THE GAMES WITHOUT HAVING A 360 IN THEIR HOUSE. therefore IT'S NOT AN EXCLUSIVE.

That's right. Walk into Gamestop and you can see all of the games available for PS3, xbox360, and PC.

I never said that games like ME were exclusive, but you would know that if you read my post (I would have thought, at least). You are on a free PC? That does mean that you win at life, but yours is not the general experience. For most, including the "high percentage of cows" you mentioned, their PCs cost money, and if they are to play these games without a 360 in their house, they would need to have bought both a PC AND a PS3... an expensive proposition (well except for you and your free computer) to say the least simply to have what lemmings get for $250.

A game is either exclusive... or it's not. Mass Effect is not exclusive, because it is on two systems (360 & PC). Now, if you want to champion different jargon like "console exclusive", I'm all for that.dsmccracken
So which is it exclusive or not? Because last time i checked when somethings exclusive I can't find it anywhere else.

A PC with a moniter that would rn the games at higher specs then the 360 would be $800, no assembly required. just walk into future shop and buy one. Plus we all know that pretty much every home in america has AT LEAST 1 PC in it. You do the math.

Cows would most likely own a PC regardless of their gaming affiliation so you fail.

That their up-to-date PC plus a PS3 is way more expensive than a $250 360... what else would my point be?

once again you make assuptions that ALL ps3 owners have a PC capable of playing those games, aswell as the even worse assuption that ALL ps3 owners with PCs use them for gaming and therefore the 360 versions of PC/360 multiplats somehow dont exist. Then you assume you are somehow undeniably right and he isnt.
