The lag is not noticable.  If it is, you have a problem with your wireless.  Microwaves and some other appliances can interfere with it, but for the most part wireless is great.  If you are experiencing lag, you may need to secure your connection.  You never know who might be stealing your bandwidth.  Your neighbor may be into downloading movies, but not into paying for internet service.

Online is pretty fun.  Not everyone will like every good game.  Just because your opinion differs from the majority, doesn't make them wrong.

A fun part of beating a game is the feeling of accomplishment you feel at the end.  Achievements are cool, because there are little awards for things you do along the way.  It's a good feeling whenever a deserved Achievement Awarded message pops up.  I think it definately can add to the overall experience.  For a lot of us, it does.

[QUOTE="zero9167"]this game was never a ps3 exclusive, it was just never announced for 360.Me-Ur-Daddy

Oh, please.  The game was only announced for the PS3 - doesn't that make it exclusive to the PS3?  Am I missing something here???  Cows treated this as a PS3 exclusive.  Now its officially gone.  Tell me again why I should go buy a PS3 right now?

thats grasping at straws buddy, THIS IS AN "EA" PUBLISHED GAME, do you know who EA is ? only the second greediest company behind MS...

All companies are equally greedy.  It's just that some are better at it than others.

About 70 percent of 360s overall sales are from America. After being out over a year and having the "almighty" Gears of War you'd think 360 would've sold more by now. Sorry Lems, but outside of U.S., no one cares for 360. www.vgcharts.org

If 360 was going to win this war, it would've sold better internationally. We can offically say 360 will be 3rd this gen. 360s fanbase is just too narrow. If you Lems want to argue with me please don't bring up the Wii or state that 360 is in the lead for now. Give me something credible.

the 360 is losing their lead fast.  what happened to the 1 year head start?

Sure the Wii is doing great, but how does that help you, a Sony fan?  The 360 is actually increasing its lead against the PS3.

Give you something credible?  Please, first give us something credible.  I think you ruined your credibility when you referenced vgcharts for starters.  Most egregious is your 70% figure for 360 sales being US based.  You are going to have to provide a reference for that.  There's no way in hell that's true.  Based on what I've seen, it's much closer to 50%. 

If you want proof the 360 will stay in the lead, it won't forever, the Wii is killing it in sales.  The PS3 though still isn't matching 360 sales.  And it's not just that the 360 has a lead in total sales over the PS3, until the PS3 sells more per month than the 360, it can never catch up.  Right now and for the foreseeable future the PS3 is dead last.  For the short term the Wii is second and the 360 is first, deal with it.

Mods should start locking biased accusation threads.  We use Gamespot as our offical meter of quality in this forum.  If you thinkg GS is biased, go somewhere else.

I've got the cash, for both, but I'm waiting on the Xbox 360 Zephr to buy my second 360. One for the Den, one for the Living Room with HDMI. PS3 isn't really on my radar right now. Maybe in a couple of years, I'll buy it, and pick up all the AAA exclusives in the Used bin. Today, I say buy a 360. Or a Wii, if you have enough friends, to keep those mini games interesting.FreedomReign

I'm not sold on the Zephr (for one it's not confirmed), but I already have a 360.  All I really want is that 120GB hard drive.  HDMI doesn't buy me anything.

I want this game to be good, its concept has tons of potential, but it's going to be a monumental task to pull it off.  I wish them the best of luck.  It could suck several months out of all our lives, if it lives up to it's concept.

All 3 consoles and the PC have great gaming minds working for them.  Arguing over which famous game designer is best is going to be more pointless than system wars in general.
