like i said thats my opinion you dont have to agree. but if you wanna know why its cuz of the better d-pad, better balanced, 6axis motion sensing thats why

Hardly a compelling argument - actaully, it's laughable. I'm assuming you've never even touched a Xbox 360 controller in your life, have you laddy?

Sad when people get backed into a corner and throw out "MY OPINION!" to solely back it up. Stubborn and benighted views at its finest.

this my friends is why ppl around the world dislike americans. you obviously dont understand the concept of opinions do you?

and yes i have played 360 many times. the controller is way better than the original xbox controller but its nothing to brag about. but anyways if my argument is so laughable lets hear yours

If people don't like america, why are we the only country in the WORLD with an immigration problem?

ps3 controller > 360 controller (but hey thats just me)

Stevo_the_gamer

How. :|

I think that Sony hasn't changed the basic design of the controller since the first Dual Shock during the PS1 days speaks volumes for its staying power. And, the 360's dpad is a flaming pile of garbage.

I'm afraid I don't understand how some people can throw their opinion out with no foundation. More or less, it doesn't matter. I can go off and spout the holocaust was a myth - made up - it's my opinion, but if I say that with no foundation or reasoning, what does that make me look like? A fool - a heartless fool that is as well.

Merely an example folks, by no means do I think the holocaust was a myth.

I don't have an argument - I'm not arguing about anything laddy. Do you see me saying the Xbox 360 is better? No. I'm merely questioning yours. :?

i told you why i like the ps3 controller better. yet all you have been able to do is try to disprove my opinion (which technically is impossible) without providing any support laddy

If you think HALO is the perfect shooter, then you obviously haven't played alot of shooters. BTW, the archetype for the FPS came out three years before Halo: it's called Half-Life.

svetzenlether
I did NOT say it was a perfect shooter - I merely pointed out it took some of the best FPS elements and it perfected them in a nice overall package. It isn't a game without faults - there is no such thing as a "perfect" shooter, or game that is as well. Laddy, I've been playing shooters since Doom and Marathon - and no game has given me an experience like Halo did at that time period.

Sony went the boomerang back in 2005, funny how much of a pile of shat that looked like. Then went back to the original concepts - and when it was all set and done, you were left with a non-rumble, cheap, plasticky, uncomfortable and disconcertingly light controller with a battery that isn't replaceable.

The manual shows you have to remove the battery. Sorry Sony didnt ship a $50 controller with a pack of AAs then charge $20 for a rechargeable...

People just drive to Britain ever since Eastern Europe became part of the Eu everything has changed. Eu citizens can live in any Eu country legally. They do risk there lives though people from the middle east smuggle them selves in by human traffickers and suffocate on their travels the western Europe

Impossible to disproce an opinion? WHAT? Here's a quick counter-example: The moon landing in 69' was impossible, IMO. It was a government conspiracy. That opinion is WRONG and can be VERY easily disproven.

Really? Hmm. I stand corrected then - from all the buzz back in 06, I remember hearing alot of stuff about the battery not being able to be replaced. Sheesh, turning to fanboy arguments now. *sigh* Sony didn't ship with HDMI or Composite AV cables either, the cabales which are necessary for High Definition. Sad that a company can tout HD and then not even ship their console with the necessary HD cables. :lol: See? I can play that game too.

No they just gave you built in Wi Fi and Blu Ray instead.

I didnt need to purchase a cable, I had a HDMI laying around.

3. Admit it or not, the Controller is the best ever, perfect size, weight and shape and feel to it, it rumbles, convenient dashboard button, the triggers, wireless.

Actually, a high-powered telescope does sends signals to the landing spot and receives signals back from a... data thing, or something in which the atronaunts placed there back in 69'. Hell, just think if the USA tried to stage that - the USSR would have ripped it to shreads touting to the world it was a fake. Did they? No. Again, this discussion is not about the Moon landing.

Your saying the PS3's motion control is good, its one of the reasons I call the PS3 the fracinstation Wii60

Trophies=achievement spinoff

Motion control= Wii spinoff

xbox = ps2 spinoff

every console = atari spinoff

and no you cannot disprove an opinion. that is not something someone is trying to prove is a fact. if you say you dont like the lyrics to a song nobody can say that you do. i LIKE the ps3 controller better. Merriam-Webster says like means: "to feel attraction toward or take pleasure in".

Hardly a compelling argument - actaully, it's laughable. I'm assuming you've never even touched a Xbox 360 controller in your life, have you laddy?

Sad when people get backed into a corner and throw out "MY OPINION!" to solely back it up. Stubborn and benighted views at its finest.

this my friends is why ppl around the world dislike americans. you obviously dont understand the concept of opinions do you?

and yes i have played 360 many times. the controller is way better than the original xbox controller but its nothing to brag about. but anyways if my argument is so laughable lets hear yours

If people don't like america, why are we the only country in the WORLD with an immigration problem?

because we stole thier land and made them into a poor country.

I agree 100%. Xbox 360 is great machine, it has a great diversity in genres, great online play, and decent price. I bet many people also consider it to be the best console of all time, but due to nostalgia they will say that the SNES or PS1 is better. Yes, I too loved my PS1 SNES and NES and they give me warm memories from my childhood, but aside from nostalgia, Xbox 360 is better IMO.

Yea because the greatest console get crushed by one system worldwide in sales, and only true success comes from NA. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Furycliff
Who cares about sales unless you want to trash talk on forums like these. All that matters is the games and the 360 has more then delivered. the360 game libary is awsome considering it has not been out a full gen yet.

Yea because the greatest console get crushed by one system worldwide in sales, and only true success comes from NA. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

rybe1025

Who cares about sales unless you want to trash talk on forums like these. All that matters is the games and the 360 has more then delivered. the360 game libary is awsome considering it has not been out a full gen yet.

yet it has been out longer than any other console this generation.

this is exactly what i have been trying to tell you.

and the whole reason we got into the conversation lass. why my opinion of which controller is better is wrong and why yours is right

NYiVtec

Really? So the "to feel attraction toward or take pleasure in" was essentially bogus? Considering Merriam-Webster does not state the such under opinion, I guess so.

opinion

I never said what controller is better with you - I merely asked why you believed as such, and then asked you to elaborate further in which you can't.

People are misinterpreting what im saying, First off, I mentioned that it is the greatest console ever within its first 3 years, not ever. Second off all, nobody should be bringing up the DreamCast, sure it had good games, but are they better than the games I just mentioned? the PS2 only had a few games that were online compatible, and you needed to buy the HDD seperatelly, AND online wasn't available till a few years after the system came out. Almost all games on the 360 could either be played on-line or have some kind of on-line capability right out of the box.

Did these systems pave the way to what the 360 is today? sure, but they are not better,( Remember within the first 3 years) The NES is trully a console for the ages, but it wasn't w/o its problems, remember how sometimes games woudn't play, you had to blow in them to get them to work, this would piss me off, how many times were you at the end of a game only to have your freeze on you. games were extremely expensive, $50-70 was a lot of money at that time,

heres my Gt-T: E Legit for ppl that want to see all the games i've played, and to show that I know what im talking about, I have also owned all of the best consoles in the last 20 years

Other Games ive played that I thought were good even though other ppl might not always agree and are exlusive (not counting PC)are Dead Rising, Saints Row, Prey, Condemned, Mass Effect.

This topic is not about bashing the PS3, or being a fanboy, so I would like people to be mature and state what they like about the 360 wheather you agree with me or not, or if you have another better console in mind, tell me why its better.

The PS2 comes a close second, but falls short.

Compare what the Xbox 360 accomplished in 05-06 via Gamerankings, compared to Wii's 06-07, or PS3s 06-07 and you'll see the Xbox 360 still triumpth over the other consoles.

[QUOTE="NYiVtec"][QUOTE="Stevo_the_gamer"][QUOTE="NYiVtec"]

ps3 controller > 360 controller (but hey thats just me)

0rbs

How. :|

like i said thats my opinion you dont have to agree. but if you wanna know why its cuz of the better d-pad, better balanced, 6axis motion sensing thats why

6 axis is terrible btw, but i do like ps3's controller more.

agreed. I'm not a fan of what they did with R2 and L2 either. The problems I have with the 360 controller are it still feels too bulky for my taste and the alternate placement of analog sticks it uncomfortable.

As for Steve saying an opinion is not valid, it really doesn't make sense since he is saying the 360 controller is better which is just another opinion. A controller cannot be proven to be better than another. It has been, and will always be the users preference.

For the topic at hand, I simply can't put the 360 over the NES, SNES, Genesis, Dreamcast, N64, and Playstation 1&2.

If you think HALO is the perfect shooter, then you obviously haven't played alot of shooters. BTW, the archetype for the FPS came out three years before Halo: it's called Half-Life.

Stevo_the_gamer

I did NOT say it was a perfect shooter - I merely pointed out it took some of the best FPS elements and it perfected them in a nice overall package. It isn't a game without faults - there is no such thing as a "perfect" shooter, or game that is as well. Laddy, I've been playing shooters since Doom and Marathon - and no game has given me an experience like Halo did at that time period.

So have I, Wolfenstein 3-D in fact. I still say Half-Life did it better, and three years earlier. The only game since then that's equaled it is Half-Life 2.

It would be sad for 360 games not to be better than games on the dreamcast or any of the other past consoles. This whole thred is kinda pointless. its like asking if consoles become more powerful as the years go by. The answer is yes.

svetzenlether
Half-Life is one of the greatest FPS ever made - and arguably, the greatest game of all time. Halo set the bar for FPS on consoles - its one of those few games which can truly stand out from the crowd. Did I love Half-Life? Yeah, absolutely... but Halo was better in my eyes and gave me more enjoyment. Personal Preference I would say, and as of Half-Life 2... ugh, great game but pales in comparison to the original.

Hardly a compelling argument - actaully, it's laughable. I'm assuming you've never even touched a Xbox 360 controller in your life, have you laddy?

since i am saying i like the ps3 controller better and you are arguing it we can only assume you like the 360's better.

and you still have yet to make a valid point as to why this is laughable and not a compelling argument. (dpad, 6 axis, balance)

It's the overall package in which the Xbox 360 provides - no console even comes close to it. And like Dreams-Vision said, "360 wins on OS and software that runs the 360. Add on Live...and you have features that the competition is still trying to figure out how to just catch up to 3 years later." Again, something doesn't have to be "new" in order to be good. Look at Halo for example, it basically set the bar for what shooters should do when it was released - did it bring anything new to the table? not really, it took all the great shooter aspects and perfected them in a nice overall package.

The Xbox 360 has done that - and the Xbox 360 experience is unmatched.

Stevo_the_gamer

You never said outright that the 360 controller was better. However, in every one of your posts in this thread, you lead the reader to infer that it is your stance. Now, you have been talking about people throwing their opinions around with no backing. I find it hypocritical since you say no console even comes close to the 360 and then use a random quote from 1 source to "back your point."

But the thing is, I wasn't arguing - I merely asked you to back up your reasoning. I never even brought up my view on the Xbox 360s controller with you - or in this thread. I merely assumed you have bias - hence why I said the following above, which clearly, I was right. It's laughable because you said three features without backing them up. Don't know how to? Ask yourself what's so special about these features - why does it make it better than the substitute controller?

If one were to argue over comfort - they would say that the Xbox 360s analog sticks are extremely well placed which places your thumb in a comfortable straight position, and not awkward position such as with the PS3s. That's backing something up - that's why it was laughable that you assume the PS3s controller is "better" without backing up your reasoning.

Contra 3

Cybernator

E.V.O.

F-Zero

Final Fantasy II & III

Illusion of Gaia

Ken Griffey Jr. Baseball

Legend of Zelda: Link to the Past

Lost Vikings

Mortal Kombat II

NBA Jam

NBA Live 95

NHL 94

Pilotwings

Secret of Mana

Sim City

Soul Blazer

Star Fox

Street Fighter 2 (& SF2 Turbo, & Super SF2)

Super Bomberman

Super Mario Kart

Super Mario World

Super Metroid

Star Wars, Empire and Jedi

Top Gear 1 & 2

These were all released within the first 3 years of the SNES' N. American lifespan.

Oh... so I "indirectly" said the Xbox 360s controller was better because I think the Xbox 360 experience is "unmatched" even though not one single word even went towards the controller. I guess one could assume that - and it'd be a fair assumption; however, I'm not arguing whether or not which controller is "better" - I just wanted to know why the fanboy believe the PS3s controller was "better" in which is VERY evident if you read our conversation. I know he can't but I'm interested to see what he has to say considering how simple it is to argue on the Xbox 360s boat.

True - that statement was quite "vague" and openended, which is great - anyone can come in and challenge me and in which I would so modestly elaborate further in. But no one has, therefore there is no need too. I called him out on his - and he failed. It has been entertaining though, from him being naive on what an opinion was to him so trying to argue... trying to get me to argue why I think it's not the best controller. Sad really.

PS3 was off to a rough start for sure.. but things are picking up, in both sales and games.

This gen is still only beginning though, and declaring 360 the winner... well, not really appropriate at this time.

Well if you read, you would see that I never once have tried to get you to argue your point. I simply stated the problems I have with the 360 controller are it still feels too bulky for my taste, the alternate placement of analog sticks is uncomfortable, and that I prefer the 6-axis. As for above, I stated that every one of your posts lead the reader to infer your stance, not just the part I quoted.

My apologies, I just scanned over it now.

What I saw was strong and misinformed opinions. You advertise fact under the disguise of "here let me shove my tastes down your throat so you can't taste my blatant bias."

I agree those games are great too, but every console in ever generation had a list of games people considered to be "some of the greatest ever made" at that time period.

Then you say "best online play to date" which is laughable because you're 26 and still haven't discovered online PC gaming (the huge phenomonon that's been rocking the game industry for the past 12 years?).

Again, stating opinions as fact about the controller and how it fits your hands perfectly (i like it too though).

IMO the Wii's retro games > 360 retro games (not really but you see how flawed your argument is).

Achievments...it's just such a huge reason the 360 owns so hard that it deserves to be on the top 5 of my BS "fact" list of why 360 owns so hard.

I'm glad you enjoy your 360, I enjoy mine too. However I don't like how you say we are all "kidding" ourselves if we don't have your tastes, and I don't appreciate being called a PS3 fanboy ( i don't even own one...) by a someone who is obviously an extremely biased 360 owner.
