This was a valid argument for years considering a.) pc games were more advanced and had better graphics b.) RTS and turn based games were superior on pc (and still are for that matter) c.) when games had the 3dfx capability it smashed all console competition. It wasn't really until n64 came out that consoles had the upperhand. PC gaming was superior for YEARS. It's not a valid argument anymore because xbox and ps3 are essentially computers. But the technology comes out for PCs first. People don't just play many PC games anymore because there's really no point. I'd gladly play PC games over ps3 and xbox anyday. i think you misunderstood what martins was saying. |

| ___________________________________ [Jan 4,2010 2:23pm - arilliusbm ""] martins, that lower case M is too unlike you. I smell a troll |
| ________________________________ [Jan 4,2010 2:26pm - martins ""] okay, I'll log out and back in for you |
| ________________________________ [Jan 4,2010 2:28pm - martins ""] How's that? I seriously just think it's so obnoxious when PCFAGS get all PC IS BETTER THAN CONSOLE and then CONSOLEFAGS respond with CONSOLE IS BETTER THAN PC. Just shut the fuck up both of you and go play Sega Master System, amirite? |

Yep, and all of those games NOT coming out on PC that you want to play, you can play on PS3 now. |

I seriously just think it's so obnoxious when PCFAGS get all PC IS BETTER THAN CONSOLE and then CONSOLEFAGS respond with CONSOLE IS BETTER THAN PC. Just shut the fuck up both of you and go play Sega Master System, amirite? technically speaking PCs were far superior. That doesn't mean they had better games. That's why jaguar was so hyped up and then failed. Horrible games and.. 64 bit what? 64bit shit. ps1 was like an snes/genesis/32x but more advanced. It had awesome games, too. but n64 really sealed the deal with consoles IMO. PC gaming declined drastically from 1998-2002. The only ray of hope ( foundation) for PC gaming now is mmorpgs which I don't realy like. :( |
| ________________________________ [Jan 4,2010 2:54pm - martins ""] I'm really not saying PCs were/weren't/are/aren't superior. I just hate the argument for either way. I don't play PC games because I hate the keyboard/mouse control system. Though, that's probably because I never gave it a real shot beyond saying "Fuck this shit." The only shit I enjoyed on PCs was emulatin'. |

| ___________________________________ [Jan 4,2010 3:00pm - arilliusbm ""] before this thread gets hijacked any further, mark, get a ps3.. Considering you don't like fps games. And martins, you are severely missing out on great games. get a USB pad if you don like keys. There are so many fucking classic pc games. |
| ________________________________ [Jan 4,2010 3:06pm - martins ""] Any examples? |

| __________________________________ [Jan 4,2010 3:10pm - narkybark ""] The ray of hope for PC's isn't just MMRPGs, but also user-made content, just like it always has. |

| ____________________________________________ [Jan 4,2010 4:22pm - MarkFuckingRichards ""] I guess it's safe to say I'll be getting a PS3; that was my first choice anyway, but I wanted to make sure I got input from people I actually know exist and not some bullshit consumer reports. Continue establishing PC and/or console supremacy. |
| ______________________________ [Jan 4,2010 5:02pm - timma ""] Boooooooooo...Xbox 4 lyfe. I totally understand the appeal of PS3, especially because of the BR player, but shit...I'd rather buy another game then a sikk movie. The PS3 game platform overall sucks, but for the crowd favorites you can get them on both systems. People like the PS3 trophies better than the 360's achievements, but whatever...I rikes it. However, I'm on my 3rd Xbox right now, because they build them like shit. When my warranty runs out, I'm totally screwed. Xbox has better lighting schemes I think, but PS3 can do a lot more with textures and shit like this. I prefer the Xbox marketplace as well. I'm sure you could give a shit less as you've already decided on PS3, but you can kiss my yellow chinese ass, Richards. |
| _____________________________________ [Jan 4,2010 5:05pm - the_reverend ""] PS3 = amazing hardware, but lacking catalog. xbox = terrible hardware, but a bigger catalog of games. I prefer the ps3. |

| _____________________________________ [Jan 4,2010 7:05pm - hungtableed ""] ps3 all the way, hands fucking down. free access to the ps network vs. paying for xbox live even for silly shit like demos is worth it in itself...not to mention better exclusive titles and blueray. ps has always been and always be better than xbox. fact. |
| ____________________________________________ [Jan 4,2010 7:47pm - MarkFuckingRichards ""] Tim, I'll accept your invitation; bring that ass. What sort of games does XBox have that PS3 doesn't? Game choice is a huge factor. I feel that at some point I'll own both if I become as obsessed with video games as I was before college. |
| _____________________________________ [Jan 4,2010 7:51pm - the_reverend ""] left for dead, gears of war, and halo. |
| __________________________________ [Jan 4,2010 8:29pm - BRUINS!! ""] Fable II, Forza , Mass Effect , Splinter Cell: Conviction, GTA IV expansions |
| ___________________________________ [Jan 4,2010 8:53pm - arilliusbm ""] Rampage, Blades of Steel, Blaster Master, Metroid, Skate or Die! |
| _____________________________________ [Jan 4,2010 9:01pm - the_reverend ""] it basically boils down to, do you care about getting an erection? if so, get a ps3. |

| _____________________________________________ [Mar 31,2010 3:18pm - MarkFuckingRichards ""] Still haven't purchased a PS3 or XBox, but possibly getting a PS3 this week...but I have a question for those who know the differences between the different PS3 models; is the only 60 GB model older, or did they create a newer 60 GB that does NOT have backwards compatibility? |
| ___________________________________ [Mar 31,2010 3:36pm - narkybark ""] none of them have it except for one of the original older models. The new ones can play PS1 but not PS2. |
| _____________________________________________ [Mar 31,2010 3:38pm - MarkFuckingRichards ""] Yeah, I just did the research myself since I was antsy. Someone on Craigslist is selling a 60 GB but they said it's only 7 months old; I believe the seller may be mistaken. |
| ____________________________________ [Mar 31,2010 3:42pm - arilliusbm ""] My friend. You have it all wrong. The wise decision would be to invest the money into Sega Master System and its games. |
| _____________________________________________ [Mar 31,2010 3:43pm - MarkFuckingRichards ""] Speak English. |
| ____________________________________ [Mar 31,2010 4:11pm - arilliusbm ""] Ok. Hear ye, hear ye. Young lad. Behold, thy contrary opinion on videogameeth. Sega Master System shall suit thy needs for pleasure. A dwindle dee playeth on PS3 only if thou like "blueray" and xbox if thou liketh Thy People Gunning games. Aye, this twee moment of pleasure neatly suited with monetary means. |
| _____________________________________________ [Mar 31,2010 4:15pm - MarkFuckingRichards ""] A Master System?! Of the SEGA persuasion?! You must take me for some proliferation of...well, dare I say, a fat-kidneyed clotpole, sire! You may taketh thy shrill-gorged ways from this place, rampallion. Thou dost fancy performing a ritual about this matter, manpleaser. |

| ____________________________________ [Mar 31,2010 4:28pm - arilliusbm ""] A noble prediciment mi lord. Thy ritual days no longer standeth before thyself. Thou dost take them for a shrill harumph, but spite the strong notions of a metereth of - ah, what doth thy populous name it - "sarcasm?," thou strike thyself down hard, ergo a bloody board such as this shall no longer be takeneth seriously. Please, mi lord, 'twas a secular notion of peace by the very hands of Sega. |
| _____________________________________________ [Mar 31,2010 4:34pm - MarkFuckingRichards ""] Now thou art just getting straight obstreperous. I challenge thou to a fencing duel; I shall thrust my epee deep into thy soul to release this demon, Sega, by which you are undoubtedly possessed. |

| ____________________________________ [Mar 31,2010 4:42pm - arilliusbm ""] Doth thou summon thyself to the lair of the Zilla? A million men cannot battle such a grandiose demon of pain. |
| _____________________________________________ [Mar 31,2010 4:52pm - MarkFuckingRichards ""] The legendary Zilla of lore doth have a soft spot for the fabled "slam." |
