Is it me or to X360 fans not understand the fact that their console came out alot eralier than PS3 and wii. Every day i come on this forum and there are threads from X360 owners about how PS3 has not sold as well as its previous consoles or the 360 and Wii.

I am not into all this fanboy argument stuff and i really don't care what console myself or you play but will the 360 fans please stop going on about PS3 being unsuccessful, your a whole financial year ahead of the competition what the hell do you expect?!

I agree in 2005, basically EVERYBODY wanted to move from 6th gen to 7th gen. The 360 came first and PS2, Gamecube, and Xbox owners all bought 360. They were impatient and wanted a taste of the next gen. The 360 did have a year head start with a huge fanbase but 360 owners seem to not care.

I consider Xbox360 a 6.5 generation console, thier early release left the thing loaded with old technology. Facts are that the PS3 has consistenly outsold the 360 on average monthly sales, but some people are just hanging on to that lead. To me, I dont care who "wins", but I do consider the PS3 more valuable and a TRUE 7th-gen system. Yes, I own both.

Don't care. I'm not gonna sit here and be like oh well PS3 came out a year later and has less games I like but it's better cause it's a Playstation. Nope. 360 has games I like regardless of when it came out and that's what I bought. No need for any other system at this point. I really don't care which is doing better in terms of sales or not. I would play my Wii if I cared about it being highly successful. It's mopping the floor with the competition right now in sales and I've only played it once since SSBB came out.

Sorry that's just your opinion. In the opinion of GS MGS4=10> any 360 exclusive. So we're on GS and we can take that as a fact. And it's not my opinion 360 has a high failure rate, and is unreliable it's a fact. And paying 50 bucks AKA getting ripped off for an online service that's free everywhere else is not my opinion it's a fact.

so 1 game that's AAAA is better than multiple AAA? that would seem to be opinion. as far as the failure rate goes. yes, at launch, the 360 had an abnormally high failure rate, and a lot of consumers got burned by it. however, new chips are making this less and less of a problem, and microsoft took proactive steps to remedy the situation. when my PS2 collapsed from a DRE, i don't remember sony coming to my rescue. as far as XBL being a rip off, well, that once again is your opinion. many users who have both (like myself) feel that the streamlined operation and increased robustness over PSN is more than worth the $50 per year.

I don't have the charts, but I think the PS3 is selling at around the same rate the 360 was selling at this point in its lifespan. the 2 consoles share a very similar sales experience for their first couple years. that's a fact.

I love when cows state things such as that. I mean no doubt MGS seems like a great game, but far from over taking multiple games that are AAA and that have sold millions each.

they defend the console because it represents the best console experience for gamers available today.

most do not defend beign forced to pay for Live. but they'll play it to continue gaming with their friends on the best online console service on earth.

So...nothing to really knock there.

I look at it this way. Any gamer who owns a 360 and not a PS3 is missing MGS4. The game was great, but its time has come and passed. nobody plays it anymore. If you own a PS3 only, you're missing out on a ton of fantastic games simply because you think Sony pwns. I'm no fanboy, but as a gamer it just seems more reasonable to be a lemming.

I have to agree with that.

if you're going to be a fanboy, why not be a fanboy of the best gaming console available? that would be the Xbox 360 for now.

no, i'd certainly prefer it to be free. however, most of my friends are on live, and PC gaming really doesn't interest me that much. i'm simply stating that, compared to PSN, which is also completely functional, i don't mind paying the money for the extra features and better interface.

I consider Xbox360 a 6.5 generation console, thier early release left the thing loaded with old technology. Facts are that the PS3 has consistenly outsold the 360 on average monthly sales, but some people are just hanging on to that lead. To me, I dont care who "wins", but I do consider the PS3 more valuable and a TRUE 7th-gen system. Yes, I own both.ThisCurse
Wow! your obvious ignorance just blows me away! Xbox360 a 6.5 gen console eh? & loaded with old tech! let me educate you with the facts my ill informed friend.. In 2005 (when the 360 was released) the Xenos (Xbox 360 gpu) was ahead of it's time.. the RSX (PS3's gpu) did'nt even support unified shader architecture, which is quite understandible cause.. this was brand *NEW* tech at this time. Here is a little snipet from an interview with César A. Berardini & Bob Feldstein (Vice President of Engineering, ATI Technologies, Inc), in regards to the Xenos vs RSX, dating back to January 24th, 2006.

The RSX has a 550 MHz clock speed. Does this 10% clock speed lead over the Xenos GPU necessarily mean that the PlayStation 3 GPU is more powerful than the Xbox 360 GPU? We won't believe it until we see it, but if true, how is it possible that the PlayStation 3 can output two 1080p video streams simultaneously? That makes the RSX sound more powerful than the Xenos...

Bob Feldstein: No! These are inconsequential numbers that don't reflect any reality concerning the system performance. The 1080p streams have no bearing on understanding system performance, and the clock speed means little.

Realize that the memory bandwidth is the bottleneck of graphics systems. ATI's Intelligent Memory provides an almost infinite bandwidth path to memory - meaning that the Unified Shaders will never be stifled in getting work to do. The Sony processor is going to come up against memory bandwidth limitations constantly, negating any small clocking differential.

The Sony 1080p dual outputs are not an indication of performance - at best 1080p is an indication that Sony considered this resolution the sweet spot of the market. The use case of dual 1080p just shows that the RSX has a PC pedigree, and has been cobbled together with the console.

I'd also like to add that the Xbox 360 uses the triple-core IBM designed Xenon as its CPU, which at that time.. dual cores were'nt even out yet! so, yes.. I would say that the tech in the 360 back then *WAS* state of the art! & you could also add/remove the 360's hard drive with the ease of a click of a button! when has that ever been done with a console!

So on Gamespot's forums you aren't allowed to have your own opinion of games, Gamespot's score is the truth. I understand. I'll remember that the next time someone makes a "Halo 3 sucks"-thread.

Pls no PS3 is not 360. Because PS3 doesn't Fail as much as 360, (1) doesn't have a rip-off online service and (2) has the best game this gen MGS4.

(1) Qore makes you pay for game demos, interviews and content that xboxers get for free. $25 a year for demos and game trailers is horrible.

(2) Only if gamespot = god. Its not even the highest rated PS3 game on metacritic and game rankings, let alone this gen.

As a gamer, I don't care who's on first and what's on second. Just what games I can play on a particular console.

And the whole MGS4 being AAAA - pffft, since 360 has so many AA's;

Two AA's > One AAAA !

V.P. 2 & ToV > MGS4. j/k a lil bit. :P

Ha this is so true 360 fans always seems to forget that their console was out before anyothers when it comes to sales but if you were to mention that if you got all of the amount sold so far and divided it by how many months its been out the ps3 would have sold more a month then the 360. Its priceless to keep hearing 360 fans to go on about it becuase they know that there console is dying after losing the HD war and the PSN now reaching level with XBL (even more so with home) and that the ps3 still has many high end games still to come out when the 360 only has Gears of war 2 which more or less looks no diffrent then the first one anyway.
