Well, the joke is that every 360 owner HAS to kill something every5seconds, or theyrefuse to play the game.

I have the Orange Box, and I love it.

But then, I loaded up Portal, found out it was a mainly a puzzle game, and said, forget it.

Then I noticed all my games I own have killing... I dont own a single sports/driving game.

Talk about stereotypes being right...

I never heard that stereotype before. A quick look at my recently played games shows that while I do my fair share of killing, other games take priority.

All my games involve harming others or being a hedgehog. The best combo you can get.

The only thing ive ever heard about 360 owners having to kill anything, is when Sony fanboys say things like, "All the 360 has is FPSs".

I have to admit, I am absolutely terrible at shooting games, anything which is adventorous, I am far better at sports games, which I am relatively good at, well tennis games haha, and driving games I am not too shabby at.

i think TC means that 360 is all about action and not many other genres fit the xbox player stereotype. i agree, shooters, driving and fighting games dominate the game market and those are the mojoirty genres on the 360. but so what then?

I liked portal, it was entertaining although short. Actually funny if you listen to the dialogue. and ya.

I love shooter/killing games. But some driving is alright, mostly with destruction, and I like Skate. So i dont know lol

Hmm, without looking at my "stack 'o games" I'm going to guess I have 1 game that isn't killing related. That game being NFS: Carbon. Ironically, I didn't enjoy it at all.

I like shooters, rpgs, racing sims, puzzle (mainly XBLA), adventure, horror, rts. There is a game in every genre i like, but my favorite would have to be rpgs and FPS.

Dude, I'll admit that a lot of the games I play are shooting/killing related, but then again if you look at the video game market as a whole I would say that the market is a majority those type of games. Sure there are sports games, puzzle games, kids games (some of which even involve "killing"; ie. jumping on people as Mario), simulation games, and management games (Roller Coaster Tycoon, ect.) but there is no way all those combined make up more than 50% of the market. So while I do play other games, like SKATE, Madden, ect., a majority of my games involve killing, I mean my favorites all do; Bioshock, Oblivion, GRAW, Zelda....so I think anyone playing any system could fit this stereotype.

Because most good games on the XB360 involve some form or another of killing. It just pans out that way. The only exceptions are KOs in DOA or any wrestling games and of course sports/driving games. Even Viva Pinata has its own happy version of murder.

:o You passed on Portal!?!?! Go back to the store and return Orange Box right now, you don't deserve it.

PS- I'm only half kidding.
