Alright - I have decided to open up this thread so you guys can have console wars in here, not on global chat. The main question, what is your dominant console? Feel free to bitch, argue, hate and spew anything you want in this section, this is the place for hating on any console you would like! My personal preference is PS3. Great graphics, smooth interface, free accounts! (Staff - I got the OK frome H41L to post this thread, but if you feel it is not needed, go ahead and lock/remove it.) Also, I found this article on IGN: http://www.ign.com/articles/2010/08/26/xbox-360-vs-playstation-3-the-hardware-throwdown
Computer hands down it is versatile when it comes to game, and it can play all the other systems listed also
I use xbox 360 and pc, but I dont think my point of view matters here because im not a hardcore 24/7 gamer like some of you. I just play for fun, and thats it
xbox has the best selection of games and stable fair-play(can't have modified clients/software to cheat) online gaming, PC has the most versatility across all genres, and PS3 Has the hardware but falls short on the game library and not so safe free online playing (lost everyone's credit card info to hackers). wii is for children, has only a few select great games and the worst 3rd party games of any console... ever. Not to mention its made of extremely cheap material. Both Xbox and PC are on equal ground with me. Xbox for my console games i like to play with controllers, and PC for others such as RTS, MMOs and Sandbox games such as minecraft.
Dont forget TONS of people got there Xbox accounts hacked and there info stolen my friend got hacked and so did antvenom and also ton's of other people!
PC all the way, the last console I got was a Wii from a bday present like 2 years ago, before that I had a PS2, PS1, Nintendo, Gameboy etc.. I started to dislike consoles after I got my PS2 and finally just stuck to PC, mainly because I play MMO's and they're best on a PC.
Xbox 360 for the console exclusives. PC for the sheer amount of awesomeness that there is video games. Nintendo started with a lot of problems, sadly, mainly due to the underpowered hardware designed for the Wii in comparison with the PS3 or the Xbox 360. It's a funny thing about Sony... I loved the PS1 and the PS2, but I never bought the PS3. Wanna know why? I'll tell you. Sony has been making a lot of mistakes since they launched the PS3. The $599 price tag, and then stripping it of specific hardware (Eliminating Backwards Compatibility with PS2 games) just to make it less expensive. Let's also not forget the time that hackers managed to steal credit card info from every single customer off of Sony's list. I mean, for pete's sake; who would have such a fatal security flaw just for credit card information to be stolen? Have they lost their minds? Microsoft can be a bit greedy with money when it comes to the Xbox Live service... but at least they have better service and better protection of personal information.
people get hacked because they are stupid, with password like 12345, or password, Microsoft can't do anything about that.
I have the 4 you mentioned... I myself prefer the pc. Better graphics, easier to pirate games.. But PS3/Xbox is better to use on a room only for it, with a big tv, so you can just sit and relax. Wii... meh, i dont play mine for some months already xP PC > PS3=Xbox >>>>> Wii. About the exclusives, just buy the 2 consoles so u can play them, and the rest = pc :]
I like how Wii wasn't even mentioned in the title of this thread. But as a defense to the PS3 regarding exclusives - The Ps3 has a ton of kickass exclusives, such as: (games with sequels included.) Uncharted Little Big Planet Metal Gear Solid 4 (also including the HD collection) God of War Killzone Heavy Rain Ratchet and Clank (HD collection) Infamous
infamous ftw!! yep ps3 is famous for da hardware (sony) and xbox is famous for software (microsoft) wish theyd come to an aliance and make one hell of a console...
I'm just saying it's never going to happen. Sony is in a lot of financial debt from what I hear (Even some danger with 3rd party support), and Microsoft is starting to get ahead. The future doesn't look that great.
Yeah the idiots do that but my friend password was a pretty hard on and i think antvenoms would of been a hard on to guess to.
