"Modern Warfare 2 and all shooters are really meant for 360" Biggest B

Ok i have heard time and time again the argument "Modern warfare 2 is really a superior game on xbox consoles along with other shooters" Since when? Can someone give me one just one reason why the Call of duty games and shooters in general are always better on the xbox? no no, just because MS markets COD to death on the 360 more than Sony doesn't make it better on the 360.. Now that the 360 has party chat you will hardly hear anyone with mics anyway and even when people talked its not like anyone ever used to team work to begin with.

And the lame argument "but the 360 will have more online players" ok yea maybe more people will have the game on 360 but how does that add to the experience? I mean im willing to bet the PS3 verrsion will so just as many copies on the PS3 as the 360, modern warfare only sold 1 million copies more on the 360 than the PS3 and that was when the PS3 was still $500.00 and didnt have near the many owners as it does now..

Ok is it just me or does the PS3 have more shooter exclusives.. Resistance, Socom,Killzone and MAG.. the exclusive shooters on the 360... Gears and Halo.. So anyway my point is this, this whole idea that Modern Warfare 2 "was built for the 360" is utter crap.. they both perform equally, look equally and play equally on both consoles.. FACT..

It usually just boils down to controller, which often, is the selling point for FPS on the 360 in my opinion.

Pardon my elitism, but shooters were really meant for the PC. Excluding Modern Warfare 2 though. :xtagyhag

it's kinda sad that microsoft barely have any good exclusives this year, and have no choice but to turn to a multiplat like MW2 for help.

The argument is very meaningful when you look at more players equaling more quality matches. I own MW for both the 360 and the PS3 and the online experience makes them seem like two totally different games. From very few people with mics to the uneven matchmaking, the online experience is just not the same. Is it superior, well that is your opinion, but, when I pick up MW to play (unless I am invited, outside of PSN, by a friend), I am playing on 360. That goes for all of my multiplayer multiplats.

The triggers are definitely better on 360. The dualshock 3 ones aren't up to par.Parasomniac

I can only speak for myslef, but the FPS community on the PS3 is weak. I get most of my FPS on PC, but if I do get them on a console its going to be 360, simply for better comp. Also why I get all fighters on PS3.

Who on earth said that? :?

Especially the 2nd half...

The whole CoD series started on PC, MW was a complete other game on PC. With Mouse and Keyboard, Mods, dedicated Servers and 50+ player it destroys the console version.

Sorry I just cant agree with that. I have played it also for both systems and I get the same experiance. Just less mic talk.

Activision got bigger than anything we could have imagined, that's what happened.

Call of Duty on the PC was amazing back in the day. Some parts of the campaign are still ingrained in my head.

Ps3 is better for shooters because you don't have so many kids yelling into the mics when they lose! :P

halo changed the way xbox fanboys think. I still agree with tagyhag.

I cant get my fingers round the tiggers on the DS3. Playing Killzone 2 on a friends PS3 was made even more annoying by having to fight the controller. I dont think it helped playing it on the hardest difficulty leve :P

Shooters are better on the PC, here's why:

The triggers are definitely better on 360. The dualshock 3 ones aren't up to par.Parasomniac

1-26-2010 i'm reviving this thread and you'll all eat your words.... it'll be a bigger knockout than the mgs4 ratings.

Controls

Both of which are superior on the 360, and both of which are very important to making a successful shooter.

Why do you think the PC has the most superior of all shooters? Because the controls are even better than the 360's, and the online community is the best to be had.

Controls being superior on 360 is opinion. Nothing more nothing less.

when you say you have both copies, you just mean access to both for comparison. you didn't actually buy two copies right?

anyways, i guess its just preference, but i hated playing cod4 on a borrowed ps3.

for starters, why is the fire gun button on the r1 button instead of the r2 trigger? i changed it and saw that the triggers on the ps3 aren't very snappy (more muddy). i could never really decide which one was better (between firing with r1 or r2). besides that, after getting used to xbox controllers, i haven't ever enjoyed moving back to the dualshock because its not as contoured to fit your hands. i notice that especially around the right analog and it tends to slow my aiming down a good bit.

so like i said, i guess its just preference.

I wanted to punch the two guys on the nosefrom Infinity Ward during Gamespot's E3 interview. Those guys are turning a renowned PC shooter series into this POS console crap. Instead of being ported from PC to consoles, its console to PC which is so screwed up.

Honestly, I rather play my shooters on a keyboard and mouse rather than a fat sweaty controller. Controllers are for people with stiff fingers whereas KB/M are for people with dextrous fingers.

well, the TC is asking why people always claim that shooters are better on xbox. the answer to this question almost has to be an opinion. most people prefer FPSs on xbox as opposed to the ps3 because they hold the opinion that the controls are tighter on xbox. it really kills the experience in an fps when your aiming "just doesn't feel right".

I have both a PS3 and 360, and the controller is just better for shooters (and everything else) on the 360. Unless you have hands the size of an average midget, the PS3 controller is to small.

[QUOTE="tagyhag"][QUOTE="mitu123"] It's basically a console game on PC, which is funny since COD started on PC!:lol:

Kb/M, enough said.

Personally I made the shift from favouring Kb/M to console controllers, it's just too easy on PC (SP or online).
