it\'s almost abusrd to say the 360 is gathering dust, but your PS3 is played in a constant manner

good thing i didn\'t say that then, and you\'re just making it up.

if comments offend you, please turn off the internets.

I simply pointed out that I find it absurd to think a 360 can be gathering dust as opposed to a PS3 at this point in each consoles life. If for no other reason, than the simple fact the PS3 has not had enough time to amass a decent library of games.

Fair enough.

Then again, you did mention in ANOTHER THREAD that Motorstorm was worth the price of a PS3?

And as for Titan\'s comment and Unicorn\'s, well, people want something to bitch about. I\'m sure some of those people buy one. I don\'t own a PS3, I will eventually, once I see a reason to buy one. It\'s the same reason I didn\'t buy a 360 on launch or Wii at launch. I need more than one game to convince me to throw my hard earned money down. Until then, I\'ll just enjoy what I do own and wait for the other systems to come around.


I see your point. I mean, as I\'ve grown up, I completely dropped the fanboy mentality. I still like to poke fun at Microsoft every once in a while but in reality, all the consoles have their strong and weak points. I know of some games on 360 that I want but the games that I really want, like Metal Gear and GranTurismo are on the Playstation line. There isn\'t enough on PS3 right now for me to buy it plus time is a big factor. This summer, I expected to play guitar for at least an hour a day. That didn\'t happen. Life happened and I still haven\'t even had time to myself. Now summer is almost over for me and I still have had a grand total of 7 days to myself. I played GTA: San Andreas but stopped because I didn\'t have the time between work and friends and working out. Hopefully when I go back to school, I will have more time, money and friends to play video games with which will be some incentive to buy a PS3 or Wii. My roommate has a 360 so I can just use his until I graduate.

meh i think it\'s ok to have some type of loyalty,..i mean as long as your\'re not crazy with it, i mean i think we all have brand loyalty to some extent, i admit i prefer sony when it comes to consoles because i\'ve experienced a great gaming experience with them since the psx, but i also appreciate what ms and nintendo brings to the table to keep sony honest...

Loyalty is never more seen than in sports, and i know everybody in here has a team that they love and that they will stand by no-matter if they\'re havin\' a s**tty year or a fantastic year...just like how i know that you ALL know that dallas is the greatest football team around...:fro:....the list goes on and on...some people prefer to drive only a certain brand of vehicles,...my pops? he will only drive ford trucks and lincoln towncars, why? cause he\'s had a good experience with them....

So it\'s ok to have a little loyalty when it comes to consoles as well, cause sayin\' that sony or ms don\'t care about what we think(they just want your money) the same can be said of car dealerships and everything else that we seem to have a certain brand loyalty for.. and sports? trust... those cats that play sports that are gettin\' paid millions could care less about whether we\'re cheerin\' for them or not....they can leave the league and still be set for years to come...

My point? it\'s ok to have a little loyalty to anything or brand that you have had a great experience with, it\'s only natural,..just as long as you don\'t get crazy with it...

Loyalty to anything is dumb let alone a video game system. Please people times have change there is enough content for you to enjoy just about all three systems if you want to.

I just blew like 800 on audio for my car should have bought a ps3

Loyalty to "anything" is dumb? What qualifies as "anything"?

wow clips thats one of the best posts I\'ve seen around here in some time

There is nothing wrong with being \'loyal\' to a console,  although I think loyal is probably not the right word and sounds kind of crazy.  

with the ps1 and ps2 I got  6 years of quality gaming.  There is constantly being new games/series being added to the software for the past decade so no reason not to stay \'loyal\' and purchase a ps3

Nintendo lost my \'loyalty\' with the 64.  They released just one TRUE mario game on the system and proceeded to make thousands of mario spinoffs instead of a new series.  Same holds true for the GC and its looking the same for the Wii.  I refuse to buy a system just to play Zelda, SSB, Mario in space,  and minigames.  

I have no reason to be loyal to MS,  they abandoned the Xbox 1 and the  360 is poorly made.   they charge for online,  overcharge for add-ons and their top 2 games can be played on the PC. Thier only good is that they\'re competition.  There wouldn\'t be HOME on PS3 etc if it wasn\'t for LIV

you have selective hearing clowd. you\'ve gone to the point of insanity with it, which he alluded too. and for that, i poop on thee

seeing as iv had problems with the consoles running with both companies, i have no loyalties. I go out of my way to make sure that they dont break down, and they do. my friend has his launch 360 in this little cave, with little ventilation, and his doesnt break down, while mine just broke down. and i went through 3 ps3\'s (the last being refurbished, but still).

But i do agree there are some natural loyalties. Right now, im just defending the 360 because of the spew of bullshit going on. i guarantee if this were a 360 board and people were talking mindless bullshit about the ps3, id defend that just because i hate blind loyalty. (emphasis on the word blind)

How did they abandon the Xbox? It had a nice lifespan and they moved on. Exactly what is wrong with that?

Charge for online? Well, yeah, compared to what is offered by Sony I can see why they charge. The Live experience is a big part of the 360\'s North America success. There is no reason you shouldn\'t be able to afford a Live subscription, that is, unless you\'re a "minum wage bum".

:D

All jokes aside, not sure why you\'re dead set that MS is some evil corporation that has done nothing right. Yes, their hardware is shit, there is no defending that. But the games for the 360 and Live experience have been top notch so far.

4 years and losing billions of dollars is not a nice lifespan.


the 360 was utterly rushed and i\'ll be shocked if it lasts longer than 4 years
