On a side note, where do you guys buy/rent your games? Local store? Online? Used?
I rarely actually buy games anymore. Or even rent them. That's because most games don't appeal to me anymore. So I'm usually waiting for maybe one or two games to come out that I'd really like to buy. Then I just go to any regular store and buy it. So I'm really only buying a game or two a year.
Right now I'm interested to try Fable 2 and Fallout 3. Though I do hope I can really play Fallout 1 and 2 before I try the third. They are games I've always wanted to play.
Twenty seven more days untill I can get legally drunk... *Happy face.*
Key word is legally...
Actually, Majoras Mask is considered a very dark game... But don't take my word, look into it. (Though you won't, as your a close minded fool.)
Anyway, I was talking more along the lines of games like Red Steel and No More Heroes, but thanks for playing.
Oh, and by the way, Halo is dominated by the kiddies. Alot more then any Nintendo game. Get on Xbox Live chat. ;D
Well, the PC is the king of fps's. If someone would take advantage of the Wii's wiimote, the Wii would be great as well. But developers are idiots so they wont release them and they wont release them because there idiots. Notice the catch-22?
Dont play that card Linkx, id rather not talk about the kids that get on mics in halo rofl! i mute them all. And ya i know, i LOVED Majora's Mask, it was amazing. Theonly Zelda i dont like REALLY is Ocarina of Time. Alllll the others satisfy me no doubt.
But still yet i mean COME ON, Zelda is STILL kiddie, so dont talk rofl.

Thats mostly what I do, however the next few months there will be a lot of games I want to try out which can get expensive. I have heard of people buying games online at a cheaper rate new and used, was curious of those. Some of the games, Resistance 2, Kill Zone 2, Far Cry 2, FallOut 3, thats all I can think of right now.

Oh, I don't expect you to think Zelda is mature. There are some mature points but mostly its the cliche prince saves princess type deal, except a farmboy/poor villager instead of prince.
But there ARE mature games on the Wii. And there are supposedly more mature games coming out for the Wii.
And I think that there are alot of good, mature games on the Xbox. Halo just isn't one of them. Besides, when I play Halo, it feels like you put future soliders with colorful paint on there armour into my little pony world and fucked all the little ponys over...

i never rent games, because the closest place to rent games, is an hour away. i ussualy just buy them at the not so local walmart. but i only buy if i think they can keep me occupied for awhile
hey i dont recommened a ps3 they have crapy games and that it is overpriced for what it is so go with the 360 for games i used to play ps2 as well and i said i would never get an xbox but i did and eventually i got used to the controllers as well so go with the xbox over the playstaion

The PS3 is a very legitimate console. Although I own a 360 for monetary reasons and for the fact that I'm waiting for Killzone 2 and FF Versus XIII.
I like to buy games. Renting doesn't give me the same feeling. Not to mention that with something like GameFly, I'd have to wait a few days just to play a different game when I might feel like playing a certain game at a certain point in time.
First, that page is based on an oppinion on what makes a game good.
Second, you can make any numbers up. If you want to be taken seriously, post good exclusive titles.
And in conclusion, never take any site that has "Fanboy" in the address as the end-all be-all of information.
Ever heard of GameRankings? It's an aggregated rating site. That means major game reviewing sources that rate the game are included. That means the most fair and balanced review possible. The only thing that PS3 fanboy did was post the article up for PS3 fanboys to revel in.
It's fair and balanced. It accounts for ALL games released on all three consoles, not just good ones. And the fact that I found it on PS3 Fanboy is moot because they themselves did not do the survey.
Now give me some exclusive titles besides Final Fantasy 49 and Metal Gear Solid 27.
And yes, we know, Nintendo has to fix the Wii's library. Xbox is still a helluvalot better then the PS3.
Which one is better is a matter of preference. But if you want to argue the overall quality of games, Gamefunk has proven that the PS3 focuses on quality titles. What you're asking me to do is irrelevant in light of the research I just showed you. But I'll humor you. By the way, you can't exclude titles from my mentioning. That's like asking me why Communism is bad, without mentioning Stalin or Ho Chi Minh.
But fine, Versus XIII, Killzone 2, Resistance, Resistance 2, Little Big Planet, Gran Turismo 5 Prologue, God of War III, Rachet & Clank Future: Tools of Destruction, Rachet & Clank: Quest for Booty. That's what I found in one minute. Probably only a few that I missed, but you see my point.
I've personally used my PS3 more than my Xbox. Regardless of mindless battling between Microsoft and Sony though, they both got whipped by the Wii. Wii > both imo. Brawl, Fire Emblem, Zelda...it's all good as far as I'm concerned. That's not to say I don't anticipate resistance 2, or FFXIII, but until those come out, Wii is top dog.
The Wii is also the best con of the three ^^ Wii...$250! Wow how cheap and affordable for casual gamers. Wii = cheapest, yes, but they nickle and dime you to death GG Nintendo
I'm happy with my Wii and PS3 so far, the XBox is losing what it had though. While the PS3 remains a glorified Blu Ray player in the near future it'll be worth the initial investment. Plus I've been doing sciences! Folding proteins ftw. Wii has been nothing but fun, I just wish Wii Fit was more available so I could blow more money on that and see how out of shape I am.

I thought Killzone 2 was scrapped...
Anyway, another gran turismo, another god of war, another rachet and clank, another Final Fantasy rip off, same old same old.
(By the way, Communism is pretty good. But that's another topic entirely.)

Honestly, I haven't been impressed with Sony this generation. I haven't heard many good reviews either, save for that one fellow who praises it, and that site he found. Other then that, the general concensus from what I have seen isn't too good for the PS3. The PS4 better bring it to the table if they want to survive imo, the Xbox 720 is gonna be powered by Microsoft, the badasses of electronics and Nintendo knows fun, it's been doing fun for many many decades.
Oh, and I have seen some really good Xbox 360 titles out, aside from Halo of course. Some REALLY good 360 titles.
Anyway, another gran turismo, another god of war, another rachet and clank, another Final Fantasy rip off, same old same old.
Let's look at the 360's track record, Halo 3, Gears of War 2, Grand Theft Auto IV, Rainbow Six Vegas 2, Call of Duty 4, Fable 2, Fallout 3, Geometry Wars 2, Red Faction 2, etc. Point being that just because a game is a sequel does not mean it's not a good game. You're just reaching for any excuse to discredit them at this point.
(By the way, Communism is pretty good. But that's another topic entirely.)
Yah damned right that's another topic entirely. And I'd be more than happy to meet you head on in that discussion. Because I disagree with you there too.

I'll let you in on a little something. I subscribe to about 12 gaming blogs, including PS3, X360, Wii, PSP, DS Fanboys, Destructoid, Kotaku, Gamasutra, etc. So I think I have some credibility on this issue. By the way, did you know that in recent months, the PS3 had been outselling the 360? It lost its momentum after the release of GTAIV, but the PS3 has a much greater market saturation as a result of it. You gotta read the news to understand the climate of the industry.
From what I've seen, Sony has done a much greater job because they have taken the most expensive console and made it a true contender to the 360 despite its "Achilles' wallet". Hell, they are in practically the same situation that the Xbox of last generation was in. Except Sony has done a much better job of marketing it. Come on, I think the fact that online play, internet, and complete console flexibility more than makes up for the higher price tag. And I don't think that the 360 really can argue that it's that much cheaper, considering that to truly enjoy a lot of the games, you have to pay to play online, which sooner or later puts the markup at and beyond the price of a PS3.
I also hate the Wii. I have it. I got it the morning it came out. And I have been thoroughly disappointed with the flow of decent games. The only ones I have thus found worthwhile are Zelda, SSBB, Wii Sports, and potentially Mario Kart. It's a gimmick. Not a true contender in the video games industry.
I also would like to debate Communism. But not here of course.
As for many of my Xbox games, many of them including a couple original Xbox titles have had pretty good replayability for me. Halo obviously for its multiplayer (although these days that game tends to piss me off more than satisfy me).
Orange Box I've just gotten a ton of gameplay out of. And I still have a few character types I'd like to create on Mass Effect.
I loved the orange box. The only part I didn't like about it was TF2. It was way too difficult to play. I just couldn't force myself to play long enough to get good at it.

TF2 was frustrating for me. I would need to play it though with people I know and see if I have a better experience.

Please don't mix up your personal opinion with real facts...

And in conclusion, never take any site that has "Fanboy" in the address as the end-all be-all of information.
What else is a game suppose to be based on besides gamers opinion?
The same could be said for XBox post good exclusive titles, I think the days of exclusive titles are going away.

Ok, so you got a different address.
Now give me some exclusive titles besides Final Fantasy 49 and Metal Gear Solid 27.

Another Halo game, another gears of war game, another ninja gaiden game... see I can do it too. Its natural for a publisher to make a sequel of a top selling game whether its on PS3 or XBox.
Anyways, I have been playing the crap out of COD4 online for teh PS3 its like crack.
Right now I'm interested to try Fable 2 and Fallout 3. Though I do hope I can really play Fallout 1 and 2 before I try the third. They are games I've always wanted to play.
