Yeah yeah yeah, double standard cow logic. We've heard it all before.
When comparing graphics, you all like to act the PC doesn't exist but when comparing exclusives the PC does matter.
Why not just adhere to what system wars is supposed to be instead of using absurd ways to 'win' arguments?

Because he was never trying to bring the PC into the argument.
The PC is most certainly a gaming system, but it isn't a console. Especially seeing as it's been years since the consoels have released, there's a much bigger gap between the graphics on PC on the graphics on consoles. Therefore, the PC is in a class all its own in that department.
He's not trying to exclude anything, he's actually saying that the PC is capable of more. If he wants to separate the consoles from the PC and discuss how he feels this game is pushing the limits more than any other console game he's perfectly within his rights to do so. I find it funny that people are trying to muscle PC arguments into a thread that's already acknowledged the PC is better.
Am I the only one that is aware that this board is called System Wars, not Console Wars?
I can bring up anything that relates to graphics so long as it's on a system. Having a 'console graphics king' is just garbage that cows like to use to reassure that their console has an edge on the X360.
Has it occured to you that the term "console graphix king" was made in admission of the fact that the pc and crysis cannot be matched hence the need for a term to determine second place just like we have ps3 vs 360 sales argument despite the wii being the clear cut winner.u dont have to get mad because u were left out of the conversation being a pc gamer.+1 .also who thinks mw2`s replayability may be due to its shorl length.I know it's System Wars and I'm really NOT trying to start anything, but did anyone else notice that the people posting in this thread that favored MW2 seem to be primarily 360 gamers and the people who chose Bioshock seem to be more PS3 oriented? It makes sense given the stereotype that PS3 gamers prefer single player games.
That being said, Bioshock is EASILY better than MW2. The storyline, the atmosphere, the plasmids, all the exploration. Good stuff. The only game I think of being directly comparable to Bioshock isn't even an FPS: Batman: Arkham Asylum.
Anyway, MW2 isn't a bad game per se. It's been casualized to a good degree and the campaign, while fun, is short and doesn't justify the price of admission. They bank on you paying for the MP. Sadly, many people WOULD pay for it if it were only MP which is a sad statement regarding FPSs. I hated hearing people say they were buying Uncharted 2 or Bioshock 2 for the multiplayer. That's NOT what those games are about first and foremost.
Single player-wise, Bioshock trounces MW2 based on length and atmosphere alone, clocking in at around 10-12 hours compared to MW2's paltry 4-6 hour campaign. But again, MW2 takes MP simply because there is none to speak of in Bioshock. Yeah, I know BS2 has MP and I'm sure most don't think it's on MW2's level. I liked it because it was different.
So long story short: Bioshock > Modern Warfare 2. You might have a better argument with an earlier COD, but not this one. Anyone who argues the story is better in MW2 is a meathead. Yeah, I said it.

[QUOTE="mitu123"] Dead or Alive 4, Project Gotham Racing 3 and 4, Saints Row 1 since you included Crackdown, both which are sandbox games and aren't pure 100% shooting, Viva Pinata: Trouble in Paradise, Amped 3, Race Pro, Stoked, Lost Odyssey, Naruto: Rise of a Ninja, Beautiful Katamari.
wow games not even worth mentioning they are not even know nor have good score.
and most are only exclusives because the 360 came out early
and the damage control begins after the ownage was served. and thats not even counting the pc/360 games that ps3 only owners cant play. add those in and your short list looks pretty sad. i wonder why people find it so difficult to admit when theyve lost.Its kind of ridiculous that you still think the for sure that the 360 version will be better.i suggest you go to n4g.com and reaad any ff13 related article besides havent u noticed ure the only one arguing this,well thats for a reason.[QUOTE="bonafide955"][QUOTE="zaku101"]
Well like I said it's all about if the developer gets Lazy or not, knowing square E this isn't going to happen. MG2 would have looked and ran better on the xbox but we all know they weren't going to waste their time to make sure this happed. They pretty much rushed ported MG2 over with very little knowledge of the hardware and made no visual changes.

That's most likely due to everyone on here being a console gamer.
Alright look,you have put up a good argument but unlike you they actually have evidence whereas you only have speculation.Nonsense. When a game is made very specifically to play to the strengths of one console, it is not easy to replicate that on different hardware evenly, least of all have it be superior. If that were the case, the more powerful and easier to develop for Xbox SHOULD have had the superior version of Metal Gear Solid 2 last gen, but the Xbox version of the game looked and ran worse. Can you actually provide a single relevant example of a formerly completely exclusive game built around one system being ported to another and being superior? The only examples I can come up with are DMC4 and MGS2. DMC4 had a much less demanding engine than FF13, and performed equally well on both systems. MGS2 ran noticeably better on PS2 than Xbox. So what exactly supports your assertion? Please cite a tangible, relevant, example. (that is to say, not RE5)[QUOTE="SteveTabernacle"][QUOTE="zaku101"]It really wouldn't matter since the 360 graphical hardware is stronger. Which means unless the developer didn't try the 360 version should look better in game.zaku101
