The funny part about this thread - the PS3 & PC gaming fans seam to love the " WAITING " more than they love the gaming LMAO.

Me thinks they fool only themselves or are really not game fans at heart but rather system fans in the head ;)

SecretPolice

More stupidity, im beggining to lose my patience with it, HALO 3 for the PC is A BONUS! not something we need badly, damn these fanboys are hitting it hard, Im not siding with NextGenNow, although I agree partly, that if you already have a gaming PC you would get a BIGGER library if you chose the PS3 or even the WII as your additional system.

Im not waiting for damn all, whats the last FPS you 360 user got? We got STALKER and what a damn fine game it was "But but teh not AAA :( :(" ... getting on my nerves that you just cant look outside the box.

360 users have nothing AMAZING other than Mass Effect , Too Human and Halo 3 thats exclusive, even those games are subjective, its quite Ironic really, there are 20+ games I NEED coming to the PC in Q3-4 of 2007, how many have you got? 4-5?.

Completely ignorant.

Calling me "stupid " & " ignorant " may make you feel better lol - take a chill pill junior - seems the truth hurts badly but a 360 only sets you back 399.99 - seems a great buy for you and you're blood pressure would come down on the purchase date - just saying ;)

Blind Fanboyish Statements = Stupidity , Saying we have to wait for 360 games just to play is ignorant, and your saying the truth hurts to me.

Im practical, I choice the system with the most games, lastability , personality , mods , online community , my work , media centre , dedicated servers , work , work , Hobbies - Graphic Design/3D Modelling/Websites.

I got every bang for my buck, but carry on beleive your BudgetPC360 is gods gift to gaming my freind, when your 4-5 or so games are out and your sat there doing nothing beacuse they lack anythign more than 15 hours play with the exception of Halo 3 ;)

Agreed. It seems both cows & hermits are really angry since Forza2. Just look at all the anti-x360 threads lately.

Poor cows. They have to hide behind the PC.

I find it amazing how you agree with every 360 Love post, while I cant stand RAcing Simulation games, and I dint even know forza 2 was realeased? Im not anti 360, but these "The other systems have nothing in comparison" fan boys need to be put in thier place, cheapest isnt always best.

Clearly though, neither is the most expensive...

Gears is still the prettiest game I've ever seen on a console. I was upset that it was so short and the story was sort of...thrown together...but it was a great game. Not fare to call it crap or to compare it to a PC game.

That's what System Wars is all about, right? If you can't handle the debate, then, clearly, you aren't ready for SW.

Like Stonin said, the most expensive system clearly hasn't shown to be superior either. And I should know, I own a PS3.

One thing is clear, cows are hiding behind the PC.

It rules? The D-pad is horrible and you pretty much have to add 30 bucks to the price as you'll need rechargeable batteries.

Why are you hanging on to your PS3? Just a question. Is it because of blu-ray or because you don't want to take a loss by selling it used? I agree with you that it has not shown itself to be the most powerful system as of yet and it certainly is the most expensive so again, why keep it?

Agreed on the d-pad.

The $30 you add for batteries is same you could add for an HDMI cable for the PS3. yup, you can get cheaper HDMI cable just like you can get cheaper batteries.

I did include the PC in the "most expensive" or I should of, my bad for bad grammar, anyway the fanboy friend of yours attacked both PC and PS3, and I debunked him for the PC anyway that is all.

And I agree, there does seem to be a number of Cows Hiding behind the PC, if they like the PC so much, why not makeit thier main console? :I

Simply because it's cheaper to buy a XBOX360 that will last over a generation of about three years, than to buy a high end gaming PC that will stay sharp for about three months, the answer to your question is pretty darn obvious Mr. Dead Serious.

If it wasn't for the blu-ray player (and a huge tax return), then I would've never bought a PS3. In the past month, my PS3 has been nothing but a BR player. Oh and I tried the NGS demo for about 30min. No games in a month.

Maybe I'll play some RFoM this weekend though.

Its much longer than 3 months, try 2 years, you only need to upgrade if you want to max everything always, max as in not needed extras.

You don't HAVE TO get HDMI cables. You HAVE TO get batteries or rechargeables for 360. It's not a neccessary purchase. I see what you mean about being able to get them cheaper on auction sites but let's be fair. One is a mandatory purchase and the other really isn't. From what I read in the forums and from the people I know, a lot of people are playing PS3 on Standard TVs.

Let's see, Halo 3, Mass Effect, Lost Odyssey, Viva Pinata, Dead Rising, Lost Planet, Forza 2, GRAW, GRAW 2, various multiplats that run and look better than their counterparts on your precious PS3, I don't like waiting 4 years to play some games that will be released ont he PC eventually, my PC can't run games that the 360 can, XBox Live, etc. etc.

Grow up.

Ok granted, your first build yes, but changing the mobo/Gcard/ in the future (Only 2 that really need changing unless some massive CPU/RAM breakthough occurs) costs less than the following generation console.

Besides, the feature difference is so big, im pretty sure the price is justified. :P

All i've played lately is RFOM. I liked the NG demo too but I don't think I'll spend that much on a game that's being released for the third time no matter how many little things they improved.

NextGenNow you would buy a garbage bag filled with human waste (Labeled PLAYSTATION) if Sony told you to. If the PS3 didn't even have 1 game AVAILABLE at launch I bet you would buy it. You would even go so far as to defend that purchase with statements like, "But its got Blue Ray and look at these AWESOME SUPER SWEET screen shots of games coming out someday!"

You are a marketing departments wet dream become reality.

I could have gone either way, continue to upgrade my PC/buy new one or just stick to a console that gives me PC style games and at the same time console style games (I love my FPS) which is the Xbox 360.

TC your missing the bigger picture MS has in store, with this Windows LIVE rollout (although I understand why lots of PC fans are not liking the idea of paying for something that was already free).  Somehow I get the feeling it will be a success (MS=$ to developers). 

Now XboxLIVE we can all agree is a success (hence why Sony is finnaly bringing their version out) but Xbox 360 has or will have the ability in the future to not only tap the 6million LIVE users for Xbox, but add a few million more from the PC side.(INCLUDING YOU MY FRIEND).

You in the end will be trading blows with Xbox 360 players on a service you paid for (LIVE) and having a great time all the while your PS3 sits collecting dust(after your done/bored with the limited supply of fresh players in your Sony network).  Ok maybe thats a bit extream, but you get the picture.

You see, the more people to frag for me, the merrier.  You'll be lying to yourself if you didnt believe that.

So I say yea, bring on the games, bring them out to Xbox and the PC together it doesnt hurt my pocket book to see a PC player taking a headshot from my sniper rifle while I sit back in my couch in sorround sound.

Now that I agree with, complaining about 2 year wait for HAlo 3 (Assuming it will be that long) for the PC is bad thing for Xbox HAlo 3 players aswell, you do realize that it will revitlize the ammount of players playing over such a long time? it is on no way a bad thing for anybody.

 I just hope they cater games in favour of the PC abit more now and then , like better optmizing and control support.

:lol:  lol.  Yeah, and even if the 360 had 10 games all score AAAA here at Gamespot, he'd still find a way to trash them and praise the Waitstation 3.

It rules? The D-pad is horrible and you pretty much have to add 30 bucks to the price as you'll need rechargeable batteries.

CyanX73

30 bucks!!!! they only cost 15.

[QUOTE="spinecaton"]Have fun waiting on Mass Effect for 3 years just like with Jade Empire. I'm also waiting to play Blue Dragon, Lost Odyssey, Infinite Undiscovery, and so on with the JRPG. Then I also get other games like Too Human, Dead Rising, Crackdown, Ninja Gaiden, and Dead or Alive.NextGenNow

Seriously though...except Dead Rising all those games are mediocre....

Well Ninja Gaiden MAYBE..but just get a PS3..they have newest version anyways...

Plus by upgrading you can play Starcraft 2!! and a slew of other great games!!

Wait..Ninja Gaiden is mediocre I just heard u  the other day saying ur get sigma for the ps3....oh....its only mediocre when its not on ur console.....Fanboy....

Agreed on the d-pad.

The $30 you add for batteries is same you could add for an HDMI cable for the PS3. yup, you can get cheaper HDMI cable just like you can get cheaper batteries.

 

You don't HAVE TO get HDMI cables. You HAVE TO get batteries or rechargeables for 360. It's not a neccessary purchase. I see what you mean about being able to get them cheaper on auction sites but let's be fair. One is a mandatory purchase and the other really isn't. From what I read in the forums and from the people I know, a lot of people are playing PS3 on Standard TVs.  

Well, if you want HD resolutions (like I do), then you're going to HAVE TO buy something. The PS3 only comes with composite cable.

Why are you hanging on to your PS3? Just a question. Is it because of blu-ray or because you don't want to take a loss by selling it used? I agree with you that it has not shown itself to be the most powerful system as of yet and it certainly is the most expensive so again, why keep it?

CyanX73

If it wasn't for the blu-ray player (and a huge tax return), then I would've never bought a PS3. In the past month, my PS3 has been nothing but a BR player. Oh and I tried the NGS demo for about 30min. No games in a month.

Maybe I'll play some RFoM this weekend though.

 

All i've played lately is RFOM. I liked the NG demo too but I don't think I'll spend that much on a game that's being released for the third time no matter how many little things they improved.  

cool. send me a FR on PSN.

PSN ID: LosDaddie

i guess it's about time I show the PS3 a little love and play some RFoM.

point is, MS wont release halo 3 for PC the same time they release it for 360 because, DUH, no one would buy 360 then. Nothing too obvious there. If you have a half decent PC, there really is no reason to buy a 360, because most of the games are just PC ports. Why? is the 360 really just a PC in a box? NO WAY!

[QUOTE="SecretPolice"][QUOTE="Meu2k7"][QUOTE="SecretPolice"]

The funny part about this thread - the PS3 & PC gaming fans seam to love the " WAITING " more than they love the gaming LMAO.

Me thinks they fool only themselves or are really not game fans at heart but rather system fans in the head ;)

Meu2k7

More stupidity, im beggining to lose my patience with it, HALO 3 for the PC is A BONUS! not something we need badly, damn these fanboys are hitting it hard, Im not siding with NextGenNow, although I agree partly, that if you already have a gaming PC you would get a BIGGER library if you chose the PS3 or even the WII as your additional system.

Im not waiting for damn all, whats the last FPS you 360 user got? We got STALKER and what a damn fine game it was "But but teh not AAA :( :(" ... getting on my nerves that you just cant look outside the box.

360 users have nothing AMAZING other than Mass Effect , Too Human and Halo 3 thats exclusive, even those games are subjective, its quite Ironic really, there are 20+ games I NEED coming to the PC in Q3-4 of 2007, how many have you got? 4-5?.

Completely ignorant.

Calling me "stupid " & " ignorant " may make you feel better lol - take a chill pill junior - seems the truth hurts badly but a 360 only sets you back 399.99 - seems a great buy for you and you're blood pressure would come down on the purchase date - just saying ;)

Blind Fanboyish Statements = Stupidity , Saying we have to wait for 360 games just to play is ignorant, and your saying the truth hurts to me.

Im practical, I choice the system with the most games, lastability , personality , mods , online community , my work , media centre , dedicated servers , work , work , Hobbies - Graphic Design/3D Modelling/Websites.

I got every bang for my buck, but carry on beleive your BudgetPC360 is gods gift to gaming my freind, when your 4-5 or so games are out and your sat there doing nothing beacuse they lack anythign more than 15 hours play with the exception of Halo 3 ;) 

   Wait - lmfao - You telling me I'm the blind fan boy takes the cake - You telling me you like those 360 games and can wait = fanboyism in the newest SP guide to fanboyism = you the PC & PS3 fanboy !

         If you like than you should  buy !   Say 360 is A  " Good Buy " would be a non fanboy statement - I will not hold my breath b/c you = a hurt cow on the range ;)  Waiting for the Cows to come  "Home " :) 

         Me = a 360 owner with a lap-top and could care less about PC only gaming - I could easily do both but the choice is very clear - I like to game now and not save it for later !

         Get a clue and than we may talk ;) 

         PS - I've been playing those PC games for ever and they just do not in any way threaten the 360 game expirience at all b/c I just like good gaming and you only like you're system of you're choice - Fan Boy ! ;)

Games... I don't give a crap if there multiplat or exclusive. I buy them for 1 system.

$400 (360) > $600 (PS3)

$400 (360) > $700 (PC)

Good game! Have a nice day.

Kreean

Don't forget to add some red rings to your bill :D

My Xbox 360 is at the repair station as we speak. It's getting fixed for free and I will have it back within 9 days. Warranty? No. No warranty needed. Where I live the law is created pretty accurately. No company is allowed to make a product and sell it when they know it can break down due to bad or not good enough producing. Unless they offer a free way to fix it. So, yeah. I guess for you guys in the US and whatever other countries, you're out of luck if you're 360 dies and you don't have warranty. But in the Netherlands were protected from that. So I don't really care about it. Well, that's not true, now I'm lying. I do care. I just bought FEAR for my 360 and Forza 2 is coming out and there are some new demo's on the marketplace. So, sure I wish it didn't have the problem but you can't have everything. And in all honesty, free repair and back within 9 days is a solid solution.

Its a sensitive topic for them. Its kind of built into their nature to defend the price right now....again the fact that batteries are now actually being factored into this debate is beyond insane. Regarding controllers though: I love the placement of the analogs on the 360...my personal favorite since the SNES.

I disagree. There are allot of titles on Xbox 360 that the PC won't get. PS3 might get some of them and some of them are exclusives. And you're totally wrong about the ports part. The only ports that come to mind from PC to Xbox 360 are FEAR, HL2 and CnC3. And honestly, FEAR is a great port. I have no doubt HL2 will be as well. CnC3 was kind of sloppy, but it remains a great game.

There are however allot of games ported from 360 to PC. We can have this discussion all day. In the end, I think you can agree with me that someone who wants an Xbox 360 probably has a good reason to get it from his viewpoint correct? Let it be the games, Live, achievements, whatever the reason is; if that person enjoys himself with it more then any other console or PC why could you possibly state he is wrong?

Wow.  Just wow.  I thought the first post in this topic was lame, but this takes the cake.  So now you're factoring in rechargeable batteries huh?  Well, why don't we factor in the extra cost of electricity that the PS3 uses over the 360 :shock:.

 See how dumb this is?  WTF is with this place?:x
