i find it hard to believe that sony would screw themselves again. i believe both consoles will be in the $300-400 price range because any more than hat and the console could get wii u'd

the x360 has more games, higher rated games and a dominant online that will be a starting point for every console forever (sans nintendo who doesnt believe in online lmao). i'm sure u've heard all of that in here already but the bottom line is, the ps3 is a good solid console but i used mines mostly as a dvd player this gen until i started streaming 1080p movies with my ipad. i live in america (THE GREATEST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD!) so everybody i know is playing every multiplayer game imaginable on x360. it was #1 for me personally. 1. x360 2. wii 3. ps3... its always possible that could change this gen but i wont know until i see everything these consoles really can and cant do.

[QUOTE="AD216"] But the Wii U's pricing is ridiculously high considering the console's poor hardware.

nintendo made some critical errors with the wii u but there is still plenty of time to right the ship. i believe they'll drop the price significantly when the ps4/durango infinity x comes out and the games will be there. they need a traditional controller in the worst way though

The pro controller isn't?

no. that thing looks terrible

the more succeeding consoles we have, the better off we all are. this means pricing would be more competitive and games would be more diverse.

How so? When the PS1 and PS2 pwned the crap out of the rest of the competitors the games were brilliant.

every console was successful so what are u talking about? there were great options from sega and nintendo and later microsoft.

the x360 will go down as the greatest multiplat and multiplayer console of all time. it's not even a debate. it revolutionized the way we game almost single-handedly. i have no choice but to laugh at these fanboys who get on here and talk down about a console that sold 80 million copies :lol:

When the stigma isn't there in terms of how you feel someone will react in a job interview. As far as in the grand scheme of things frankly I think it comes down to the person. Yeah if you focus on the forum poster community(complete shit heads) or some of the games "journalists" or something like that evo dude who was bashing female gamers or wathever you're gonna have that low opinion of gamers which really has nothing to do with the actual medium itself.

Personally I think games are in a position where it's more than just fun. For starters there is competition or a challenge. In my cases I'm really fascinated by the inner workings of a game. I think it's kind of cool all the little things that have to work right to make something purely fun or well paced, let alone try to convey something that might have some emotional resonance in a videogame.

As far as x or y being art I always found that concept 100% douchy. I never once considered praising something I love as something I love because it's art. That sounds so toolish. As for pretending there is no "game" at play in Bioshock Infinite i would disagree. There is definitely a game at work there.
