why do people keep saying 360 gaming is dead?

elpresador, some pc fanboys, and ALOT of ps3 fanboys keeps saying that killzone killed xbox, xbox died cuz of red ring, yearly payments etc etc...

what people dont see though is that ps3 is still in last place, pc gaming is still expensive and complicated with device driver upgrade dx 10, compatible operating systems, not to mention thefact that halo 3 sold more than resistance 1, resistance 2, killzone 2, god of war 3 uncharted 1 and uncharted 2 COMBINED, 6 top games..

how can a console be "dead" when the opposition's critically acclaimed games cant even outsell 1 exclusive , now now, i know what your thinking, and no, i do not wish to start a flame war, its just annoying to see pc and ps3 fanboys bash the xbox and call it dead when the numbers say otherwise

well then tell me, what does the ps3 lineup for next year besides killzone 3?

Correction, you mean Halo 3 outsold R1, R2, K2, GOW3 U1 and 2 combined in America only.

Because here in SW games like Mass Effect or Splinter Cell or any multiplat doesn't count for anything. So the 360 is doing poorly here, yet in the real world its doing just fine.

you know at first i thought sony fans were bad but lately i changed my mind, microsoft fanboys are the worst of the worst, why do you care what people say anyway?

No, PS3 fanboys are the worst. They always make claims with absolutely no proof to back them up.

wut

It helps your thread if you don't riddle it with exaggerations.

I suppose I should answer- It's the internet, why does anyone care what anyone says?

He was talking about next year. The PS3 has Killzone 3, inFAMOUS 2, and I'm not sure if it has anything else confirmed or not.

No when Greenburg said that he was talking about NPD only.

"Halo 3 has outsold Resistance 1 + 2, Uncharted 1+2, Killzone 2 and God of War III COMBINED….wow."

I mean I know I don't have up to date worldwide sales for these 7 games, do you?

I don't play sales.

Even though I do agree that Halo is a great game, its not enough for me to buy a 360 for.

[QUOTE="FIipMode"][QUOTE="MassiveKaos"]Not sure if serious :|

its not,they just like causing some mischief

even though my 360 is dead though:(

what? O.o the only arguments i hear is that pc gaming is dead, but then again when i see people who say stuff thats so far from the truth that it makes me laugh i tend to just forget about it

[QUOTE="SaltyMeatballs"][QUOTE="FIipMode"] Why wouldn't I be serious?FIipMode

My bad :P I saw "elpresador" and said wtf then stopped reading.

[QUOTE="Chris_Williams"][QUOTE="SaltyMeatballs"] Outsold those overall.Fumpa

The trash talk is somewhat equal, but cows always make things up and make claims that they cannot prove. I lost count of how many "PS3 is stronger" or "PS3 will beat XBOX360 in 2 years" topics I've seen.

[QUOTE="FIipMode"]

[QUOTE="SaltyMeatballs"] You might want to also add the "combined" part to your post.MassiveKaos

My bad :P I saw elpresedor and said wtf then stopped reading.

sorry, guys i have no personal hatred towards the ps3 or pc, its the fanboys i hate...

because there's always a dumb person or group of dumb people who live up to their name by saying dumb things like that.

[QUOTE="Kan0nF0dder"] Hey man, you're the one who brought up the 600 dollar price point, implying Sony was willingly ripping people off. I corrected you, it was sold at a loss, a big loss. Incidently, M$ don't stop with the p2p charge, next on the $$$ list comes the HDs, why can't I use any old external HD, they're all the same. Does Sony make offical HDs which they vastly overcharge for, while simultaneously locking out 3rd part HDs (who woulda thunk it, M$ trying to monopolise?).Kan0nF0dder

Exactly. They both want your money, and will do anything they can to get it.
