I think the Cell Processor's supposed to be the be-all end-all in the console horsepower race but comparing the PS3's launch titles to the 360's I'm not so sure.

Well, look at Xbox 360's launch titles. For most, it was hard to tell the difference between the Xbox and Xbox 360 versions.Quote:

Must have cost him a fortune to buy all those games. ;)
I doubt he bought them. (acting like I don't get it).Quote:

If the average game takes 10 hours to complete and he plays for 4 hours a day it would take him over a year to play through that lot. (That's not taking into account my bad maths, the fact that some of those games can't be completed in the traditional sense of the word or the fact that he has a bunch of console emulators stuck in there).
If he had Football Manager installed then it would take him about 20 years to play through that lot.
Yeah I look at my PS2, Xbox, 360, etc. collection and think to myself, "Self wtf and whentf are you gonna play all that shit!"Quote:

The same goes for my DVD collection. I have over 1 TB of rips and maybe 800 real DVDs and can't watch all that shit. That Blockbuster Online help me balloon my collection.
I'll have time to watch then end up doing more music or some other shit.
It's quite weird. It's like I can't sit still and do one thing for long.
I did beat both GOWs recently in short time though. The game was quite a draw. It rare that a game has me sitting there for a long time like that.
My problem is that I don't let it breath.
Halo
Halo 2 (both Xbox)
RE4 (Gamecube)
Gears Of War (360)
God Of War
God Of War 2 (both PS2)
I was compelled to conquer them in short time.
I couldn't play a WOW game too much and such since it doesn't seem to have an end. Online games are for the occasional fuck around.
I think all that shit should be taken in moderation. I'm just on the "hardly play but have a shitload of games" end.

also orderd a VGA cable off ebay (£9)
console is great, downloaded about 5 demos off the net and loved them all :rolleyes:
looks like ill be ordering some games after i finished completing halo 2 and saints row.
selling WWE that came with the 360 in a bundle thingy. :01:
i guess wii beats them all
no offense but wii is for children and party games...xbox 360 and PC are for real gamers.
Ps3/xbox graphics both impressive but xbox gameplay is alot better, the current ps3 titles are extremely dissapointing considering its pricetag. Prefer some of my PC games over any of my console games any day!@ Still not had a shot on a wii but it looks fun :D
For me
PC and PS3 love them both equal
PS3 because I love the games they have compared to X BOX 360 and whats coming up your GTAs your RPG the games im into.. im not into FPS games
and PC simply for sports games so I can mod rosters jerseys graphics and well any game really
I paid $1000 for a PS3 and must say I use my PC more I have lost my youth I think
Well, shiny Ps3 looks cool and it has some really cool features and exclusive. But yeah, i like x360 more - It's beautiful from inside and outside - At the exclusive's rule. But i don't have neither of them. Never had a console, never will. PC is still great for me, consoles cost a lot and every year you have to get a new one.. Btw: I have more of half the game on that pic above.
That's not true at all. Consoles last at least 4 years.:ermm:Quote:

PS3 vs. Xbox 360 graphics comparison
Right now the Xbox 360 looks slightly better in graphics but too hard to tell if ur just playing either system individually. Too bad the Xbox doesn't use the hdd to load information from the games like the PS3 does - it should have been a requirement from the start.
ye... i was just gonna post that. i was quit surprised at how much better the 360 looked in some shots :OQuote:

I'm a Sony loyalist and have had every PS... but Sony and Microsoft can't keep up w/ the advances of computer processors and hence the games...
That's just one game which is badly coded for the PS3.Quote:

It's just that market is there more often for those advances.Quote:

I think there are PC people and console people.
PC people sit in front of their PCs for whateverthefuck more often.
Console people sit in front of their TV more often.
A PC person is more inclined to sit there and watch a full length movie on a computer monitor.
Personally I couldn't stand to do that.
If PC were more uniform on the gaming front and easier to integrate with an entertainment system then I'd tell consoles to fuck off entirely....and so would the rest of the world.
As it stand now, a person has to fuck around with the latest video card....then a year later maybe get the latest video card....also add in that can't usually just buy one, hook it up to a big screen, turn it on and immediately play a game.:ermm:
so true. i was always a PC gamer until i got a 360 three months ago. to game on PC, you have to have a good GPU, the right gamepad, the right keyboard, the right mouse and the right drivers.Quote:

There are great games for the PC that didn't require a great GPU like Diablo, etc.Quote:

Tbh, I kinda wish M$ wasn't in the console business. There would be a bigger push for PC entertainment center type applications.
Consoles are for noobs with tiny e-peens.
Well I have everything except a PS3.Quote:

Neg. Consoles are for the simpler peoples who like to use the noobstick for easier handling. Microing is where the proness is at.
How is that when it's easier to handle a mouse?Quote:

Consoles are for folks that wanna play games immediately with very little no config. Also they wanna play it on any size screen and can move it from place to place very easy.
I was playing God Of War on a big screen during vacation in Mehico.
Streamline the PC gaming experience for entertainment centers and not just for someone's bedroom or office and then consoles would be eliminated entirely.
The "noobstick" is horrific for FPS games though, I played some console FPS game this weekend and it's like wading in mud.Quote:

The PC player still requires skill but he's not hampered by a crappy control set-up so his natural skill/crapness can shine through. Somebody who can do well with a "noobstick" is akin to somebody overcoming a disability to do well at a sport. Like that one legged wrestler, Zach Gowan.
So true.:lol: No doubt the mouse is better which is why I don't understand why there aren't mice for consoles.Quote:

Analog sticks require way more timing and precision (for many, an inordinate amount of it). If you push hard right you turn faster. You see your target, you must time not pushing the stick anymore.
The one thing I hate about mouse setups is using a keyboard. I don't understand why most folks don't have an 8(or more)-button mouse.
Also there needs to be a small analog stick for movement since the mouse is for looking....(I guess kinda like the Wii nunchuka accessory).
i think xbox360 is better because it has a lot of game unlike ps3
but sony may get more games soon i know sony is not going to leave the challenge like that
If you look at some of the screenshot comparisons on 1up, it would seem to be just about even, with some games looking better on the 360, while some look better on the PS3. Some people make a good point, though, in their criticism of that comparison based on the fact that the PS3 screenshots were only in 720p.Quote:

Even though I'm in my 30s, I'm just not "adult" enough a gamer for the steady diet of FPSs on the 360.
