The Rapid sensitive mouse movements just kills the realism for me, how quickly one can turn looks stupid. Installation, Capatibility issues, constant patches, upgrading, errors, complexity in general is pathetic.

Gaming should be about simplicity...pop in and play hence consoles. Controllers IMO are much better to to comfort and having it all on one pad, sticks for aiming is perfect not to fast nor slow JUST right.

Console graphics stand on it's own against PC graphics, while not as good..games like Killzone 2, Uncharted 2, Gears of War, Heavy Rain prove that console graphics are GOOD enough and all that extra money for tad better graphics/increase AA and FPS isn't worth it. Hence why casuals and majority head to console.

I honestly laugh at PC gamers who complain about consoles, PC should stick to it's primary funtions, and that is office works/deskstop applications and the internet.

I'm done.

So the Sony fans are out to try and make this seem like some epidemic. Good luck with that one guys. This is day 5 of desparation. Threads just keep popping up about the same consoles over and over again.

Well i created this trhead and I'm not a sony fanboy so fail on your coment, but to be honest i am slightly worried about this as i would like to keep my console or a long time as long as i have had my origianl xbox goin on 7 years now.

so why not post in the 360 forum? You knew it would incite fanboy banter when you posted it, otherwise you wouldnt have put it here.

um no i posted it here because more people are on this section than xbox.

It may run hot but Sony has had a good track record this Gen of their systems being reliable and not breaking all the time. Ive gone through 2 xbox 360's and i am on a replacement xbox at the moment. The Redesign looks nice but honestly i think the problem is taht they treid to make it smaller, jammed a CPU and GPU in a heasink that is super tiny looks worse than an Intel stock heatsink, i know for sure they use cheap thermal compound as i craked open my first xbox 360 to fix it, and they kept the same **** dvd drive, a 12x one for that matter, there are tray drives that won't scratch your discs you know. I hope this is all a bunch of poop and its jsut a small amount of people,

but Microsoft has a bad track record.

Stevo_the_gamer

Ironically, my experience with Xbox 360s this generation have been much better than with Sony's Playstation 3. I had a Launch Xbox 360 last me till last January. That's more than four years, and my 40GB PS3 died in less than a few months. And I've had my PS3 Slim now since last September, and even that has given me a ****-ton of issues (corrupting saves, turning off randomly, constant freezing, failing to turn off at all). There's always folks getting YLODs as well, and overheating issues as well. Yet a few instances here for the Xbox 360 Slim and it's SW material. So easy to jump on that bandwagon regarding Xbox 360 reliability.

Yet Sony has an even worse track record with the PS1, PSP screens, and the PS2. It was rather surprising to see the PS3 hold up so well in regards to reliability.

Hopefully this is all a bunch of garbage like that troll video of a guy saying his power supply for the new xbox 360 RRODed, so hopefully its all jsut being blown out of proprtion, becasue honestly i dont want to have to start another game library with another system, because i love the one I already have, like you saod thyere is still no proof yet and hopefull it stays that way.

Well I think part of the reason why launch 360s had such a huge RROD problem is because they were rushed out the door to meet launch date and get that 1 year lead on the competition.

As stated already, other microsoft products, like their computer accessories or Zune, have no massive debilitating defects so I think the 360 is just the bump in the road. There shouldn't have been any reason for microsoft to have to rush development of the new "slim" 360 so I think its a good bet to take these early reports with a grain of salt. I mean, any product can have some defects at the start; I'll start to get worried when a huge number of people begin having problems and not just a few youtube users posting videos.

Hopefully you are right.

[QUOTE="Sniping_Crowbar"]

[QUOTE="imprezawrx500"] yay list up lots of old games while many new games are discounted on steam, find me a deal as great as the thq pack for 50 bucks on consoles. trying to deny the deals are awesome is just plain stupid. DJ_Headshot

I am not denying anything, all i said was tha 90 percent of the games that were on sale aren't very good, and i said that 10 percent of them are actually good games, its sfe to say that considereinf there were 700 games on sale, so take 10 percent of that, wouold be about 70 games. I bought Painkiller again becasue i lost my discs to it and i bought cryostasis and trine all for less than 20 bucks. I never denied anything, i never said the sale was stupid all i said was the majority of he games were bad like

Avencast

Space rangers

space rangers 2

space rangers 3

Star wolves

Star wolves 2

Star wolves 3

Greed: black Border

Overlord

Chorme

scourge project

Super Laserracer

I mean really come on these are all Bad to mediocre meh games, alot of them are hence why most of them are on sale, there are exceptions like the 10 percent of games like the THQ pack Bioshock painkiller Deus ex serious sam resident evil 5, GTA:EFLC to name but a few. You sir are denying the fact that most of the games are poop but for a small margin (respectively considereing there were 700 games on sale) that are actually worth buiyng. And my listing Console games was a response to ProudLarry saying "How many console games can you find 50-75% percent off, zero" When i said nothing or even mentioned console games in this thread before that person made that remark either he was butthurt and clicked on the wrong person or wen't by his fail logic and assumed I was some sort of Console fanboy becasue I stated my Opinion and said that most of the games on sale are bad. So before you or anyone else Jump on me take a good look at the games that were on sale, good and bad, look at the arguments that were posted instead of going "OMG CONSOLE BLAH BLAH LBHA he has defilezorz OUR STEAMS!!" Its pathetic to see some people get all defensive over me stating an opinion. anyway. Peace.

Some of those games you listed actually being good according to gamespot which classifies 7.0 and above as good games. Avencast got 7.5 Space Rangers 2 8.1 Overlord 7.5 Chrome 7.1 As for most of the games being on sale being bad your right but it doesn't really matter the majority of most things in life are crap. You simply ignore them and focus on the good ones that are available. And you comment of only 10% of games being good is wrong its close to 25%. I organized the games by metacritic score and there where a total of 179 individual games on sale with a metacritic score of 75 or higher so if your focus on numbers instead of percentages the sale provides an incredible amount of deals on alot of quality games.

those scores are fail, 8-10 for the win, unless your talkin about deadly premonition, everyone should experience that game.
