Why have you got 3 manufacturers, a publisher and a game?

Thats like "Which is better, Rump, Rib Eye, T Bone, Ice cream or Kenya?"

This made me lmao.

Poll should be reworked.

I already said it was because they wanted to avoid huge lawsuits and attract more costumers. They would have never been so popular if many 360s didn't last 3 years without breaking.kuraimen

Activision easily, they are willing to go an extra mile just so we can have 1 additional Call of Duty every year, and countless guitar heros. :P

But seriously, it would be hard to compare the big 3 as all of them rip us off in different ways. Nintendo is the only of the 3 who sells a console for more than it costs to make, Sony removes features that will only end up punishing legal customers and Microsoft is Microsoft with its shady practices.

Edit: Still Nintendo has great customer support, and sony has been doing a great job supporting their system. But I Bungie has done a really good job supporting Halo 3 so they win.

The only company that may truly care about you is the Company you keep. :P

Why put Halo? And who the heck voted for it.hexashadow13

Halo fans?

I would say Valve.

this topic shouldn't have a poll.

I'd say Valve or Relic because of all the free content they release for their games post-release.

DICE is pretty good as well.

The only company I've had bad experiences with in terms of customer service is Microsoft. I had to send in my old Xbox about 3 or 4 times before they detected a problem with its power supply, yet every time they pretended they had fixed it, while they merely just sent it back the way it came without admitting they weren't able to locate the problem. They also tried to charge my brother 72 euros (that is about 100 USD, mind you) for a simple question about Windows XP during a telephone consult because Vista was already out and XP had become 'an unsupported product'.

For the rest, I'd say Nintendo comes across as the most sympathetic at least, seeing as they make top quality hardware (so far I never had a problem with any of their products unless if it was caused by myself) and seem to be actually concerned about their contribution to the industry in a creative way as well.

:lol:

Halo a company.

I guess Sony from that list for free online and pushing for great exclusives.

Sony - free online.

Microsoft - Xbox Live rocks. RROD doesn't.

Halo/Bungie/Whatever/Masterchief - Umm Thank you. Halo Reach rocks! xD

Activision - Wait what? I dont know if serious...

Nintendo - When did Nintendo care what anybody said? They stand for "I do what I want, whenever I want." Ninty brand. Here, take this motion controller. Go play with it. :P

I'll say Valve.

Sony, at least they care the most about providing content it seems. Nintendo's been doing a really good job lately.

lol at Activision.

Valve > else.

Maintaining customer satisfaction is a primary goal of running a business. And in the gaming industry Valve does it the best.

[QUOTE="hkymike"]Microsoft shouldn't even be on this list. All they acer about is moneymutenpika

Yea, the worst by far is Nintendo there the only company that sells there hardware for more then its worth at launch while the others take a massive loss. You just dont get any bang for your buck with them and this generation is the first time i have skipped there console.

MS only cares how they're going to milk their customers and take their sweet time solving problems if they ever do solve them.

MS does. They knew some people were craving to play a next gen system. So they said screw quality testing lets give the people what they want and pay a billion dollars later. But it gets better. After their loyal fans stuck by them they rewarded them by raising the price of Live.

The 360 launched with a 3 month warranty. Due to lawsuits and a lot of bad press they extended it to one year, then finally 3 years for RROD, and later added some other defects to the 3 year list.

They really did have to do that, because the consequences for losing the class action lawsuit in CA would have busted the 360 completely.

This gen.

erglesmergle

They all care about me equally. :)

lol... Activision and Halo are beating MS. Gotta love SW.

i definatelly throw the hat to nintendo

because not only do they address every problem right away

-such as remember e3 08

they have done the extra mile for 09 and 2010 e3s and this years line up you better be looking at nintendo

cause they have just cleaned house with every major franchise in one swoop

somthing sony nor microsoft could ever do

-such as

new dkc

2 new zeldas and a remake for 3ds/wii

-kid icarus-3ds

-goldeneye007

-conduit 2

-kirby epic yarn

-super mario galaxy 2

-mario sports mix

-wii party

-metroid other m

-punchout

-warioland and ware

-ssbb

-metroid prime trillogy/and 3 seperatelly

marioparty 8

starfox 3ds

-paper mario 3ds

super paper mario

mariokart for the wii and 3ds

zelda tp

super mario galaxy

new super mario bros

wii line of games

-pokemon

- p ilot wings 3ds

-pikmin 3 -coming soon

with all those games and more

but with microsoft they offered nothing notable but fable halo gears crackdown and forza- that is mighty small even with rare , -pd banjo and viva pinata and kameo

and sony they offer slightly more then microsoft but are just finally releasing the classics we all know-such as twisted metal and gran turismo-in case your wondering 30 dollar demos dont count

so with all that

plus when there was a problem with wii not reading disc-ssb nintendo immediatelly took care of the problem free of charge even for launch wii owners

it took microsoft 1 -2 yrs to offer a 3 yr warranty only to those of e74 and rrod

sony well they didnt need much , because sony and nintendo have less failure rating

and when i called nintendo to transfer my games it was as easy as 123

BUT the first time i called sony they wanted me to pay postage to have them fix my defective controller and when i called ms the first time even under warrante they said oh we cant help you

Lol... Activision got more votes than Microsoft.

Nintendo>Sony>Microsoft>Activision

Im going with Nintendo, because not only does the system last, it was built well, my frist Wii fell like 10 times before (over 3 and a half-4 years mind you) before it broke (only the disc drive broke, everything else; channels, menu, everything else not disc related worked). Oh and Nintendo of America gave us 20% off the repair for the broken Wii to get repaired :O

Nintendo. I get Excellent service when I needed my wii and ds repaired. Easy and they fixed it rapidly; about a week, SONY took double that amount to get my PS3 fixed...

OH and When I sent in my Wii to Nintendo, they sent me a refurbished one (or a new one... It literally had NO scratches on it. :D ). And I realized that my new wii had none of my VC games. I called them up and they transferred it to me easily. :) Nintendo is #1.

[QUOTE="mutenpika"] Wasn't there a 3-year warranty for the RROD? They didn't have to do that, you know.vashkey

Honestly no thats a great reason , Nintendo has never sold there systems for a loss as they are simply to cheap to do so . Im sorry Sony and Microsoft actually try to drive the industry rather then releasing 5 year old hardware with motion controls that dont even work right.

Nintendo even skipped out on a cd drive for the N64 and claimed it was because loading times killed the gaming experience eventhough cartdriges cost way more for devs to produce games and were much harder to work with so they ended up losing almsot all there 3rd party support for the soul reason they were to cheap to put a cd drive in the N64. Nintendo has alwas been the msot greedy of the console makers.

Lol... Activision got more votes than Microsoft.

arto1223

i would say none of them, they just want our money

....Halo is a company? :lol:

Valve?

Why wouldnt anyone sell their product for more than its worth. Its called profit. MS ans Sony had no choice.
