anyone who has played both will tell you that the PC version is a lot better...but only half of its content is new, which is why the PC version gets a lower score....

just think about it...TF2 on the 360 has lag, a lot of it, and only a 16 player cap. The PC runs and looks a lot better, has no cap, and has a map editor. Plus its actualy cheaper.

Is it really that hard to tell?

I hear Nvidia is coming close to a video card that can actually output HD...but apparently only NASA has access to it at the moment, and it wont go public for another few years.

Only an ignorant buffoon would even suggest that the Orange Box on the 360 is better than on the PC. Portal will have and already has tons of downloadable content, Team Fortress 2 runs smoother, more dedicated veteran players who actually understands how a "team based" MP shooter works. etc. etc.

This is a Wok7 thread guys. Nothing to see here but fanboy'ish and idiotic statements. And to Wok7, no the 360 version is not as good as the PC version, despite a whole .1% difference....

The 360 version is not as good as the PC. The PC has better graphics, plus framerate where as The Orange Box for the 360 has framerate problems (onlya few) for HL2: EP2.

It's because the 360 version is in HD, which gives it a .08% advantage.

From playing both, I'm actually surprised with the 360 version, just because on the original Xbox, HL2 looked like crap and had framerate issues at the same time. Mods uaully don't count in ratings, but... I prefer the PC version just because I can download SMod and use exploding BANANNAS.

You can't use banannas on no console.

I must have been playing Team Fortress 3 then, because although there is a LOT of lag it is not game destroying as in some games. It just takes a little while to find a decent game and then you will be fine.

The thing with the Orange Box on the 360 is that it is a pretty excellent port of PC games, enhanced graphics and the games are intact from their originals on the PC (pretty much anyway). A rare thing indeed.... *Looks to FEAR 360*.

so true. i played the pc version when it first came out and the 360 version and without a doubt i can say that the pc version is by far superior. the controls on the 360 version are subpar and at times erratic where as the controls on the pc version are just perfect. the pc version also has gary's mod and the high-res skins mod which make it all the more better. seriously, i don't know what the devs were thinking but they should have left half-life 2 on the pc where it belongs.

Valve loves money just like everybody else.

Unfortunately for the PS3, EA also loves money.

That is because you can buy the components of the PC version seperatly, thus some reviewers reviewed all the games seperatly, not as one pack.

That's pretty true right there, and the fact that TF2 is WAY too fast to be played on consoles IMO.

I kind of agree with that,only TF2 is better due to 32 players online and no lag so that puts it way ahead.I like the 360 version's of HL2 because I prefer a controller over kb/m and I can talk to friends while playing single-player. (I have only 2 friends on steam and they're never on now because of second-life and a broken computer.

Your ignorance and n00bishness NEVER ceases to amaze me.

1. Crysis isn't a Run-and-Gun FPS like FAILo,in fact,Crysis is probably the beginning of the ned for run-and-gun shooters.

2. PC Gaming is more expensive than consoles,i don't deny that,but you probably have a PC you got a year or two ago and it likely has a PCI-E slot,so just get a HD 2600XT and experince the goodiness of PC Gaming.

You fail :wink:

Well... at least I accomplished something when I got gold on all the portal challenges with a controller :P What say you non controller owning, mouse clicking, easy street cruising PC gamers? (If you haven't tried getting gold on all the challenges dare you try level 16 with one, go on I triple dog dare you, you will want to rip off your fingers after a few hours)

no i loved the orange box, portal=best thing ever made.
and an awesome game like TF2 is just ruined by only being able to play 1or2 good matches out of 10

and thats why the PC version beats the 360 version because vary rarely will there be lag
