Yeah, I didn't understand why they call it an Xbox360.

You pretty much end up at the same place you did before. It applies to 720 as well.

So, you just spent a good chunk of money to get back what you had before?

Thats why they should change the name. =)

HuusAsking

There are a couple theories for the name.

1. They didn't want to put a "Next" or 2 in the name because of the psychological effect it might have against a PS3. Using a unique number like 360 eliminates the "3 vs. 2" issue.

2. They named it for the all-encompassing (as in it's all around you, 360 degrees) experience intended with the console.

Interesting Theories.

I will remember those. =)

:lol:, xbox 720 is the most stupidist name ive ever heard, half life 3 is years away, of course itl be on the next xbox, not all ps3 only owners care as you so desperetly want them to

You are missing a lot of this point i'm making. All other Valve Software and games on 720. Left 4 Dead for example. You should see the amount of threads in the Sony forums asking if they may get Left 4 Dead. So surly we will have a Left 4 Dead 2 on 720 most likley.

you read the playstation specific forums even though you don't have a playstation?

wow. a new level of fail must be created

Gordon Freeman 3 on Xbox 720 will DEVASTATE Sony as far as system sales in the states next gen.

Half Life 3 very likely ending up exclusive for Xbox 720 and all other Valve products and games. Could mean system hatred for a Sony system in the states next gen. I mean Valve already boycotts Sony and even says they stink now.

We all know Valve is at the top of the list for games and development. Maybe not in Asia but USA we all know this.

Sony not having Gordon Freeman and company in the USA is a very bad bad thing. And will do MAJOR DAMAGE to A Sony system in the states.

Why do they call it the Xbox 720?

Because when you see it you turn 720 degrees and walk away.

The only company that can kill a system now is EA. If EA decided to exclusively support console 1, console 2 would be dead.

TREAL_Since

I have to agree that if EA decided to support only one console then the competition would be hurting pretty badly as EA has such a huge part of the market. However the point is to make the most money and with development costs so high this generation all 3rd party companies are going multiplatform so that they can be sure to make up their dev costs as well as larger profits.

ie-GTA 4, FF 13, Bioshock, Resident Evil 5

Even the Orange Box was ported to the PS3 by EA.

I doubt EA would decide to support only one platform no matter how popular it becomes. Companies know that they can make money by going multiplatform so if its an option they'll go for it.

You may not particularly like Insomniac and Valve's games which is fine, but you must know that many people love their games and their games in general get very high reviews. To call them a crap dev means that either you are too close-minded to be able to respect a game that might not appeal to you or that you are so arrogant that you think your personal preference means more then that of millions of gamers and reviewers.

Half-Life isn't mainstream, there is absolutely no way it will possibly ''ruin'' the playstation brand. The game would probably slip trough unnoticed.

But I assume you allready knew that. You just started this thread for lulz :P

[QUOTE="johnnyblazed88"]Left 4 Dead not going to PS3 :cry:Dur_Rocky

It's a Major issue with all the Cows i see this topic talked about more then any others in Sony forums. Begging to get the game.

honestly that is simply pathetic. i hate those kinds of games, and so does a small majority of hardcore gamers who actually like horror games. get over yourself and your damaged ego.

[QUOTE="Dur_Rocky"]Oh beleive me i'm with you brotha on HL being a PC first game. Heck both HL games so far half made me build new PC's to play them. I'm just saying it looks like Valve has deffiantly choosen who they want all the love to go to as far as home systems and this = very bad for Sony.Dur_Rocky

Well if they want the love to go to all systems they'll develop for the PS3.

HL3 is going PC first, Console few years down the line.

No discussion needed.

It could go either way PC games half become much more the norm on home systems these days. And Valve may decide to develop simultaneously for 720 and launch same day as PC.

and ps3 may come up with an exclusive thats so amazing that every single inhabitant of earth will buy one just to play it.:roll:

Miss_Wacy

Irony? He is just going in order, like people call the next PS "the PS4". What happens when you double 360? You get 720.

On topic: I do not agree with TC about Half-Life 3 being exclusive to the "720". Even if I was I doubt one good game would kill off Sony. Did MGS4 kill off 360? No, not even close.
