@Tiwill44: In terms of preference yeah, it's subjective - for me the 360 had more games that appealed to my tastes but the PS3 had a pretty solid library toward the end for sure.

@RobDev: Wii was definitely a cultural hit but guess what? No one is using waggle controls anymore. The 360 set the standard for online console integration which this gen still uses today.

@andyvecc011: it actually didn't, aside from the cell it was technically inferior not that it matters. Great games came out of both of those machines.

@RobDev: Culturally one could argue it did dominate, tho whether you agree doesn't mean you have to flip out at mere terminology. It definitely made an impact on the gaming landscape.

@Ripper_TV: Platinum still make good games on their own IP, but they also contract a lot of side projects to fund them. This is one such side project.

@Ezioprez9709: PGR4 man was dope. Shame Bizzare no longer exists.

@bioswat: eh PS3 has a powerful processor but wasn't more powerful overall (GPU wasn't as good). Plus being hard to program for since the Cell wasn't really made for games meant that for a long time most games ended up performing worse on the PS3. That being said PS3 was a solid console either way.

@LPDisturbedHU: Indeed, and it's a fight over a war that is basically over, which is the sadder part.

Why are people taking issue with this article? Celebrating the success of the 360 doesn't take away any achievements of the other consoles. Hardware/corporate loyalty is a dumb/sad thing to fight about.
