quick question.....the FUCK are yall trying to compare Uncharted and Gears for? two different games IMO.
as far as consoles...healthy debates are always welcomed in my book.
you want a more variety of games with great online...360.
(a lil) better graphics, blu-ray and the Sony-exclusive titles...get the PS3.
right now....I prefer a variety of games and great online experience...so I'm trying to get my hands on a 360 right now.

not including PC games on 360 ONLY = cop out
PC gaming.....console gaming....two different niches, audiences and industries IMO.
add those games....and the "stretch" of a list for 360 goes up.
I agree that the line of variety between the 360 and PS3 is blurring more...PS3 has been stepping it up recently....but my question...is it too late? PS3 has a slooooooooow start while 360 came out with it's punches and has maintained it's momentum throughout.
PS3 is STILL too damn expensive for the average gaming consumer...couldn't give two shits about Blu-Ray really...and all those games that were mentioned that are going to come out in the future for the PS3...lmao at automatically calling them great when they haven't came out yet...360, PS3, Wii...don't matter, I don't deem games GREAT until they release...even if I am heavily anticipating a game myself (like The Last Guardian....good GOD, I want to play that so bad).

Well (imo) any so called "gamer" that wants to play game a game thats on 360 and PC and they have a PC and ps3...can and probably will get it on PC. Lol i mean 360 isn't bad. It has its golden nuggets.
But really though...should you really include games that arent on PC? If im sittin here playin GoW1 on my laptop...am I really gonna turn around and say "it's xbox 360 exclusive"...
certainly not...
As for whether on not its too late...lol i don't think it is. The life cycle of these consoles are gonna be longer than the last. Although i believe microsoft will develop a new system before everyone else. Even nintendo.
Here's some more food for thought
Oh yea...and lol at him calling games that arent out yet good. Please dismiss that..(save the sequels)

Also, PC is still owned by Microsoft.
You still need a live account, you still play with a 360 controller.
Disregarding them = copout.

Sometimes I wish PC gaming didn't exist.
Well most people don't have a high end gaming computer.
I sure as hell don't and won't for a long time.
And gears of War 2's not coming to PC.
Halo 3 won't be on PC for YEAARS and YEAAARS.

And that's well and dandy..
I am aware you are a halo and GoW2 fan.
But EVERYONE dat talks about the 360's games says those.
The fans of the ps3 will have different "favorite" games on their lists
And my whole point was..
That the games shared b/w the PC and 360 ARE NOT exclusive. Microsoft maybe be gettin my money, but you wont see those sales on the chart of the 360 NPD games list.
Hell that's probly the reason Microsoft released those games on PC anyway. To make money off the non-360 owners.
And yea Games for windows live cant do everything XBL can..but lol u better be gettin more if u payin.
But then again...all games arent GFWL anyway

Yes but the PC isn't considered a console.
And is not in a console wars.
When Gears and Halo 3 have a review in a magazine it says exclusive.
Computers can play ANYTHING.
I can play anything from Donkey Kong Arcade to Street Fighter 3 for Dreamcast.
Also it was about a year before gears released on PC. it was STILL an exclusive when it released.
Just like PS2's Budokai Series, Okami, Gamecube's Sonic Mega Collection, Resident Evil 4etc.
They were ALL exclusives, the Cube ones all said "Only on gamecube"
But they ALL got rereleased eventually.

Console wars technically mean nothin...
All cosole wars really refer to is what ppl prefer. Does not determine which is better. Better for them..maybe, maybe not
But how many ppl in this world know whats best for them..lol
And as for GC games being rereleased..he used a term for that in the vid...
time exclusive

Well gears and most of 360's best games are exclusives/time exclusives.
And every one of the time exclusives will never be on PS3 or Wii.
Which is the competition. PC isn't competition.

Part 1
Part 2
welll....for me....PC gaming and console gaming are different...in the sense that PC has to go up against MAC...and 360 goes up against PS3 and Wii. the structure, interface and overall experience of PC gaming differs than console gaming (for the most part).
so for me....a console that gets a good PC game exclusively for them is a great pick-up for their audience.
he pretty much echoes what is going on right now with the games....the line of variety is steadily blurring...PS3 is stepping it up...I agree.
but something that 360 does...and to be honest, does amount to a lot...the user-home experience. Applications like Netflix, Facebook and XBOX Live...that's stuff I know I WILL use once I get my hands on a 360....as will countless others.
for sure the Wii will thrive....and 360 will as long as they maintain their excellent online and core user-home home experience intact....PS3 to me, has to play catch up...it looks like they will though, but gotta wait and see with all their games coming out...will the majority of them be GOOD or just other versions of Prey...lol.
oh....two more things that will accelerate the success of PS3......
BETTER ONLINE...lagging as SF HD Remix lag....ugh.
and
rumored PS3 Slim w/ price cut = FTW!!!!!
a part of me wants to deem Last Guardian instant PWNAGE right away...lol...but my better sense tells me to be patient and wait until the game comes out.

As for him talking in echoes...lol do u see the name of the vid(to xbox360 fanboys) Apparently they keep sendin him PM (as he says in his vid)...and its also like an update or his Pt 3 video(which he also says)
Well..as for applications...the Wii and, ps3 have BEEN able to do facebook (web-browser).
And u can already rent movies through PSN (forgot the company).
Hm..PC having a different interface...well...it should...most games on PC wont EVER make it to mainstream consoles anyway b/c of the nature of the PC.
I mean really...does it matter to the consumer what systems are competing if a system they already have has the game(s) they want? Why in the world would you buy another system...FOR THE SAME GAMES....oh and 9 upcoming exclusives. Some variety.
And PC vs Mac means nothing...they can easily emulate each other...AS WE SPEAK.
But..let's say emulation doesnt exist...hmm....there are still more games on the PC!
Also...as for PC games getting ported to only one "console" "exclusively" (although its usually vice versa..but ill role with it).. the moral of the story is....you can still play it on PC and dont need that "console"
I mean sure its a plus for the system...lol just about any game released on it that's good is.

Like I said, how many people here have a PC that can run Gears of War, Street Fighter IV, etc, besides Don?
I like games like Halo 3, Brawl, Zelda, Naruto Rise of a Ninja.
You'll NEVER see those on PC, and you'll never see it on another console.
Halo and Brawl being my two favorite multiplayer games of all time.
And *gasp* I have a 360 and Wii.
And I had a Cube and Xbox.
And you can't use multiplat, or PC arguments for this.

Lol you keep gloating a system's exclusives...actually TWO system's exclusives.
And wit the limited exclusives that are on the 360 anyway...some of which im sure YOU yourself don't even like.
Then why the world would i buy one...when i can play MOST 360 games on THIS laptop slightly under the recommended system requirements.
Only thing i don't have is a dual core processor. I have a 2.2 GHz AMD athlon. ALL OTHER recommended requirements i have equal to or greater.
PC made in the past 2-3 years (wit AMD processors) can run those games pretty well. They may or may not need a RAM upgrade..but you get the point.
PC's are more common in a house than 360's anyway. Use that potential 360 money for a PC upgrade then you're ready for PC/xbox360 crossplatform games for the next 3-4 years. Not to mention PC exclusive games lol. Your library just expands even more wit PC/ps3 combo. WHICH IS THE WHOLE POINT HERE.
So if you really love those limited exclusives..then hey...as BlackBusterCritic quoted another xbox360 fanboy
"What more do you need?"
rofl..you know you're a true gamer when all you play is halo 3 and brawl...oh..and rise of ninja (of course im exaggerating..but not by much)
And I DO NOT understand what you're saying about not using multiplat and PC arguments for this.
All im sayin is..when you buy the 360..you're limiting yourself more than if you bought another system.
Due to the limitations of the games on the systems...im goin to want as many options as possible..to..."warrant my purchase(s)" as you put it before.
I do have a close irl friend wit a 360..lmao i guess i can enjoy the REAL exclusives on his 360..its not like there's too many anyway. The games on PC i can enjoy myself.

lol, I'ma true gamer.
It's the same thing I tell to 360 owners that diss the Wii.
I have a Wii so I can play, mario, Zelda, Metroid, Smash, etc.
I wanted a 360 primarily for Halo and NBA 2K.
Like I told you before, I've played 2K on PS3, and not only is it laggier, but the I like the 360 controller WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY better for sports games.
And yes I like 360's exclusives. Bioshock was a time exclusive, fantastic game.
360 has Blue Dragon and a bunch of other exclusive RPG's that will NOT be on PC.
ALl pS3 has coming is that new FF, and I read in Game Informer that that might be coming to 360 as well.
Smash Bros. and Halo, like I said before are my two favorite multiplayer games.
And once again those will NEVER be on another console.
So for the rest of my life I will always own the console that has Zelda, Smash Bros., and Halo.
Smash Bros. being my favorite multiplayer and fighting game ever. Halo tied for favorite multiplayer, and shooter ever. Zelda my favorite adventure game ever.
You'll never see Smash bros. Mayhem, Halo: Reach, or the new Zelda on your PC.
Most of this board owns Gears 2, and after a few months of analyzing, gears 2 is the far better game, and that's already been announced to NOT come to PC.
Yes PC gaming is great but I'm not content with waiting a year or 2 just to get a rerelease of a game that's been on a console for years.
At the EARLIEST(if it even happens), you won't be playing Halo 3 till like 2011.
Prolly will pay about $50 for it as well. And even then you'd be freakin 4 years late. With a fraction of the online community at that.
And by that time, we'll all be playing Halo Reach.
But anyway, it's all about the games you like.
3 of my favorite series ever are Halo, Zelda, and Smash.
And just like last generation, I have the console to match the exclusives I like.

Yes..it is about the games you like...and i'm not "all over" the PC.
Time exclusives = meh. You and i will be playing other games till those come out. (I do have a wii and ps3 btw)
Controller preference is meh. Only ppl that conbtrollers really matter for are ppl with both systems. You say you've played it on ps3. Well yea 360 will seem better. Lmao you OWN it on 360.
Lagginess RARELY has to do with the capabilities of either system or the network they're using. It's determined by the effectiveness of the programmer. Lol cmon now..360 has its share of laggy games too.
And i'm sorry...but the Halo games need to stop lol. How many halo titles are coming out on the 360 anyway?
And I really don't buy a game system for 2-3 games...ever. I will find someone with those games lol. Maybe even trades systems with them for a while.
You can only play mario/zelda/metroid for so long...until it comes to the point where you know every nook and cranny of every secret area in every game. Personally...the game gets boring to me before that point ever comes. All thats left after that is nostlagia. :\
Ps3 does not have just FF13 versus comin out lol. It has Disgaea 3, Cross Edge, Valkaryia Chronicles...(2 of which contain 100+ hours of gameplay) not to mention the time exclusives that were on the 360. Tales of vesperia and eternal sonata. Both of which GOT MORE content. If you ask me..then that's worth it lol.
Are you really going to be playin all those halos? Play halo reach..then go back to halo 3? You kinda said it yourself (in your own way)..360 is a fanboy's system.
I already said it before...all 360 has is
Halo..
Shooters..(which alot are on the PC)
Xbl..(if u wana pay)
Lol in the Rpg category..ehh...the good one's are comin to ps3 lol. (most anyway..not blue dragon etc) plus ps3 is getting a lot rpgs that were on ps2 soon.
And i'll be playin my ps3 and wii while i wait for those "time exclusives" to come out even better(well..i guess not better on PC..but ps3 YES). Enjoy them exclusively while you can.

Nah, I've never liked the Sony controller that much. Always thought the Cube and Xbox controllers were better.
Now fighting games the PS3 controller is ideal, especially with games like Street fighter IV.
Now shooters, adventure games? Sports? Hell no. Trigger buttons are lame and the joystick is in the wrong place.
Also another big thing is the 360 is way cheaper than a PS3.
I like it's controller better. I like it's exclusives better. It's online is better. It's coming features last.fm/and facebook, like Nelson said, I KNOW I'll be using ALL the time. That'd actually be a system seller if they had it at launch. last.fm is the best music site/application ever. And you can save music to your harddrive and play them in any game.
Those are what gives it the edge for me and most of the world.
But if you have a good PC and a few of 360's best games there, then PS3 might appeal more to you.
And lol, Halo 1, exclusive. Halo 2 exclusive(released on PC, but eh, most people get that for achievements, I can play Halo 2 on my 360 AND there's still alotta people playing live on it.) Halo 3 Halo Wars Halo 3 ODSt Halo: Reach
And Halo's one of the most popular games of all TIME, breaking records with each release. There will be a LOT of Halo games on each microsoft system.
And I can play Zelda and Mario forever.
Even after all these years, they are still the pinnacle of gaming. look @ Mario galaxy, some people are calling that the best Mario game ever, and it's probably the best 3-D Mario game ever.
lol and those RPG's aren't coming to PS3.
360 has better exclusive fighters too. Rise of Ninja is an exclusive.
The Ninja Storm series for PS3 is meh.
I'm pretty sure that blazblue game coming out is an exclusive as well.
Tales of verspersia. that'll never go to PS3. Ari has several others I just can't remember the names.

*sigh*...yes..RPGS HAVE ALREADY MADE IT FROM 360 TO PS3 WITH MORE CONTENT /Eternal Sonata
Tales of Vesperia IS coming to the ps3..LOL IT IS.
And Mario Galaxy may or may not be the greatest mario game of all time. I was never doubting its quality. I was saying that..after you beat it 2-3-4 times you may come back YEARS down the line for nostalgia purposes.
And lol at a controller determining which system you...if its THAT big of a deal..you know they have adapters right? I mean it only takes a while for you to get used to the other if you OWN them. I bet it will never give you a real edge in high level play...which im sure a gamer like you loves to compete in.
The lower pricetag is such bull lol. You PAY for online....and your accessories cost more. Coupled with the fact the 360 breaks its own things..lmao.
And facebook HAS BEEN on the ps3 AND wii lol. Not to mention ALMOST THE ENTIRE INTERNET rofl.
And lol at Halo breaking records...THERE'S NOT MUCH ELSE TO PLAY.
And Ultimate Ninja Storm is win lol. Not anywhere remotely like the ones on ps2. I hated those.
Lol at better exclusive fighters...then naming naruto. Not knockin it...but the one on ps3 is just as good. Look at the ratings.
And the better RPGs on the 360 are coming to ps3...lmao im not just saying that.

the apps are so much more intuitive on 360...and I like apps specifically tailor-made for facebook, twitter, Netflix, etc.....because the Facebook-specific app will work so much better than that shitty Facebook that's online on the internetz right now...no shitty quizzes, no shitty ads....cut to the basic core.
and I'd rather pay for great online than get free, shitty online lag personally....if you give something shitty for free...I'd rather not take it in the first place.
Instead of Sony concentrating so much on "Home", they aught to improve their online, so that they can boast, "HEY! We got great online....for $FREE.99!!!"
I'm not getting into PC vs. Mac....I'm just saying that seeing PC titles on only one console is a good pick-up for their intended audience...I don't have a PC to run Left 4 Dead...but my 360 does!
PS3 has made leaps and bounds in the past year...because at this time last year, I wouldn't be caught dead trying to buy one....but now with the rumored PS3 slim (with hopefully a price cut), variety of games steadily improving and ZOMG THE LAST GUARDIAN (lol)...my tune is slowly changing.
