Anime is one of those things that you either like it or you don't. There isn't really a middle ground.

Anime, to me, is like any other tv show. If it's good I watch it, and if it isn't then I don't.

Personally I'm confused by the people who obsess over it, and watch only anime, and nothing else. I mean it's not all good.

Same goes for any type of tv show. A lot of cartoons are bad, a ton of reality shows are bad, a lot of sitcoms are bad, etc. The obsession bothers me.

[QUOTE="Heil68"]The best 360 exclusives are going multi plat, not really a reason to own one these days.rasengan2552

There are plenty of reasons to own a 360 besides just exclusives. I know you do get paid by Sony to say s*** on the internet, but no one really cares on what fanboys like you say.

nah he's right ... there really is little reason to own a 360 right now. I bet you that if MS could drop the 360 and make everything compatible through just Kinect, they'd do it.

There's little reason to own one if you've already played all the games on the 360, sure, but that'd go for anyone.

If I was to buy a 360 today I'd have 5.5 years-worth of 360 games to play. That seems like a pretty good reason.

[QUOTE="Yangire"]

Did you miss "by skill" when reading the title?

Yangire

I only play CoD when it comes to online so it would only make sense if i list them since there arent any other shooters

Problem?

OP isn't saying you have to play the game to list it. For example I don't play Quake 3, but I know it would be in the top 5.

What if Quake was actually just an overhyped, baby-mode shooter that only gets attention for being a PC game?

You just wouldn't even know!

I suggest playing Quake Live if you want to really know.

Too little, too late.

I mean seriously. It's been nearly two years since Alan Wake released.

I'll consider Remedy "home" when they develop a new game for the PC.

There are many PC games that are developed by independent mid-tier developers. I dislike classifying them as indie because that term has come to mean something a little different it seems.

There are plenty of glorious games on the PC with a budget high enough to produce a game with a lot of content, but just not quite enough to polish it all off. Games like EYE, or Hard Reset, or Mount and Blade fit into those categories.

A writer for Gamespot recently wrote a great article that fits well. It's definitely worth a read.

http://www.gamespot.com/features/in-defense-of-the-60-6349597/

While it's main focus is on how we look at the score "6.0" there's a message to be told of how many low-scoring games didn't score low because the game was bad, but rather because they lack the polish of the AAA titles.

So it's really up to you.

The decision was easy for me. In the reality of things the consoles don't get that many more big-budget games than the PC does. Maybe five or so in a good year. But on the other hand the PC will get dozens of more exclusives to itself from that "Mid-Tier" section of gaming, and on top of that HUNDREDS of indie titles.

Only make the jump if you can invest a little extra time in learning what's available. There's really no business in buying a gaming PC if you just want to play the high-budget games.

So the Mortal Kombat Kollection just came out which has MK1, 2 and 3. They can also be played online o.o

And surprisingly it's on the PC.

The best reason I can think of for why it's better is how big it is. It's size pretty much warrants a purchase of a carry bag to hold it in, and those can be quite stylish.

You'll be the talk of the town wearing one of those.

Uh welcome to the past. American's passed them up in 2010: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/06/17/american-car-quality-tops_n_616592.html

Hey also wasn't it Toyota that built cars that killed people by accelerating when they were pushing the brake? Now that's quality!

It was all part of their ad campaign "Moving Forward"

[QUOTE="SW__Troll"]

[QUOTE="gamebreakerz__"] The issue is that people buy consoles for exclusives, not multiplats. Another reason people buy consoles is for new IP's not rehashes or sequels. So combining the two console buying factors we get exclusive new IP's. There have been arguments about overall libraries about games and superiority of multiplats but this thread is about exclusive new IP's.gamebreakerz__

So you're telling me that when Mass Effect, or Bioshock were originally on the 360 people didn't buy the 360 for those games?

And people held off buying a 360 for games like Alan Wake because nearly two years later it might show up on the PC?

Is that what you're getting at?

As just pointed out Bioshock released on same day on PC as 360. But also what I'm getting at is that exclusive games are exclusive irrelevant of time. Like how Crysis is delayed 4 years for console but I still list as multiplat. And with what your saying it would create all kinds of problems. For example, BTK (BF3 expansion) was a ONE WEEK timed exclusive for the PS3, does that mean we list as exclusive? Skyrim DLC is one month timed exclusive for 360, do we list as exclusive? No, we don't, the games are on more than one platform, therefore, multiplat.

I'm saying you have flawed logic.

Let's take Gears of War for example (a new IP)

It's one of the biggest system sellers the 360 has.

But you're saying that since people buy consoles for new exclusives, and IPs that Gears of War is not a reason people bought the 360 because it released a year later on the PC?

Really?

The 360 is a bad platform for new IPs because they might be released later on other platforms?

It's logic only an idiot would use as far as I'm concerned.

If you understand what the game was going for then it's wonderful.

It's very, very, VERY painful to talk to someone about Deus Ex who went into the game expecting it to be a rooty tooty point and shooty type of game.

I've never heard someone sound so dumb while bashing a game.
