dont know what half that shit mean and i cant find a breakdown of the 360 like that either. oh well who gives a fuck. besides all of the ps3 games im pretty sure are gonna be HD if that makes a diff
Hardware superiority is irrelevant.
Buy the system that has the games you want to play.
I just buy them all.
IDK if i will like the controllers. The PS1-PS2 ones are probably the best controllers i have ever used. Worst would probably be the N64 ones.
Gamecube controllers are 1000x times worse than N64 controllers.
I like the XBox small controllers best.
xbox’s have used standard IDE harddrives since they came out. that’s the benefit of them over the standard ps2… accelerated graphics and standalone graphics cpu >
Sonny’s xbox > *
incorrect. but close…
I haven’t read up much on the PS3 and only know a little about xbox360 but one quote I read stands out. It was from John Carmack (head guy at id software [Doom series[) and he said its rather obvious the ps3 has got the xbox360 beat as far as hardware numbers go. But whats more important to him was the fact that xbox is a million times easier to program for. As far as he saw it, he would take the 5% cut in system performance for 200% easier programming.
Not to mention xbox will be coming out first, and using Halo 3/Halo movie to counter-act PS3’s launch
my xbox wouldn’t be anything iwthout s10blazed… that’s for sure. the hardware does become a moot point when playing field opens up… a standard xbox is really easy to modify and there is such a following that it would be hard for me to believe the ps3 will be more widely accepted as superior
xbox > *
exactly…thats why i stick with sony.
PS game library > xbox game library
but i can play any nintendo game ever on the xbox… tetris, burgertime, chip and dale rescue rangers and TMNT > *
ps. For those of you who have forgotten, TMNT is Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
you can play any nintendo game ever on any PC made in the last ten years as well.
I have a PS2 because of the exclusivity of the Gran Turismo games, the (original) exclusivity of the Grand Theft Auto games, the Katamari Damacy series, Soul Calibur series, et cetera…
I have an Xbox because Amanda randomly bought an XBox one day.
So when a game comes out exclusive to either, I have the ability to play it. If a game comes out for both systems, I buy the XBox version because I won’t have to worry about a memory card.
(on a side note, we have a Gamecube also. it sucks.)
:gives: how does that relate to anything about ps2 / ps3 / xbox /xbox360
stfu
if you’re hardcore into video games, you need to get a life.
here’s what i’m saying: if you’re using ability to play roms as a reason to purchase an Xbox and not a PS2, it’s a fairly miniscule advantage. If you have a PC (where you would probably get your roms from anyway), you can more easily play Excitebike on it than on your Xbox.
