Title: The Official Console Debate Thread
Description: oh yeah


Rocket Fingers - October 1, 2007 01:50 AM (GMT)
Okay, here we debate which is better:

Wii VS PS3 VS 360

AND

DS(Lite) VS PSP(Slim and Lite)


There ya go!


*DO NOT FLAME
**You can discuss and compare games, but not for fun, it has to be a debate. Example:

Person 1: No, Halo 3 would crush Smash Bros. Brawl
Person 2: No because Halo 3 has no.....
=GOOD

Person 1: Hey, do you own Halo 3?
Person 2: Yeah
Person 1: Is it good? Should I buy it?
=NO
That belongs in the Official Microsoft thread, there are also Official Nintendo and Sony threads, so please keep Example Number 2 in those threads, not this one.

I have the wii and the xbox 360 and really the only games i buy for the 360 now are racing games..(the only shooter i play is socom for the psp.>>) Just cause although it might be cool on the wii, its just not for me. I prefer to race with a controller, rather than spinning a stick sideways and up and down, thats all

Rocket Fingers - November 12, 2007 09:54 PM (GMT)
I rather like the Wii, but I want a 360 too. But I don't want to sell my PS2, so...

SilverBlade - November 12, 2007 10:23 PM (GMT)
I prefer my ps2 to my xbox 360, but I dont think I would be happy about losing either of them.XD

Rocket Fingers - November 18, 2007 05:40 AM (GMT)
Well, the PS2 is still kicking, and the 360 is slowly dying down in hype.

SilverBlade - November 18, 2007 05:51 AM (GMT)
Yeah. And these days more and more games are selling on all systems. All that 360 has to offer now that ps2 doesnt is halo(Which ive never played) or so I think, anyway. And HD or whatever. But theres some awesome exclusive sony games e.g. most of the ff games( I think) kh, tekken, and some others. But what it all really comes down to is personal taste in gaming genres.

Rocket Fingers - November 23, 2007 07:38 PM (GMT)
I think the 360 still has a few good games to get through on.

SilverBlade - November 25, 2007 02:27 AM (GMT)
I cant really think of any reason anyone would get a 360 besides halo or to get extra content and play games online.. OH MY GAWD, I was in gamestop and I saw halo 3 legendary edition for ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY BUCKS! 130!!!! I nearly fell over..thats freaking crazy.

Zero - November 25, 2007 03:13 AM (GMT)
I may not own any next-gen systems yet, but I'll give you my opinion on each of them.

I'm starting to look into the PS3 over anything. It's (finally) starting to get a decent lineup. KH3, FFXIII, Resistance: Fall of Man, Dragonball Z: Tenkaichi 3 (Yes, I know, I'm a nerd), Gran Turismo 4, GTA4, etc. And with the $100 price drop, it's becoming more of a reality to get.

The 360 is strong, but its lineup is starting to die down. Halo 3 has quickly died in hype since its release (the first Halo game not to receive a perfect score), and it seems that was what was keeping the 360 alive. Fanboy completely obsessed with Halo. I don't know of any blockbuster titles coming out for the 360, unless Fable 2 counts. But then again, that's also released for the PC..

The Wii is wonderful. RE4: Wii Edition continues to be the game I want to play the most, and Super Smash Bros: Brawl is pretty much guaranteed to be a winner (as the last two were). However, after a long day of school and/or work, I doubt many people will want to come home and stand up while playing video games. I'll be the first one to admit it. I enjoy being lazy, sitting on my couch, and mashing buttons until I'm content.

As for a portable system, it depends. I'd highly recommend my PSP over my DS, because of the custom firmware, homebrew, etc. As a stand alone system, DS beats the PSP. But, if you're willing to downgrade your PSP and upgrade to custom firmware, you can play SNES, NES, Genesis, GBA, GBC, PS1, etc. games on your PSP

Then again, with the PSP, in order to take advantage of the homebrew scene, you'll need a good sized memory stick (the ideal size would be 2GB or higher). That would set you back an additional $40+.

With the DS, you can get homebrew on it, but it is more expensive. You would need a flashdrive, which costs roughly $60. With it though, you can play homebrew as well.

DS wins in current games. PSP wins in homebrew scene. It really depends on what the user wants in a system, and how much they're willing to spend.

Zero: Tenkaichi 3 is only coming out on the PS2 and the Wii.
KH3 hasn't been announced.

Zero - November 25, 2007 03:33 AM (GMT)
..point taken. Tenkaichi 3 is awesome though, and it'll be one of the games I spend the most time playing, even if I get a PS3. I don't understand why they didn't make a PS3 version of it. It could've probably doubled the graphics in it.

Rocket Fingers - November 25, 2007 03:36 AM (GMT)
I'm going to get it for the PS2. And I'm going to get Rock Band for the PS2.

SilverBlade - November 25, 2007 03:38 AM (GMT)
Rock Band looked awesome, and I cant wait for kh3 >.<

Rocket Fingers - November 26, 2007 06:37 AM (GMT)
I'm going to get Rock Band with meh Christmas Money.

SilverBlade - November 26, 2007 05:59 PM (GMT)
I dun get any christmas money >.< I'm thinking of getting a ps3 pretty soon, though. Its gonna cost me a fortune.-_-Maybe I'll trade in my 360 and games, that should help out a bit with the price...

Rocket Fingers - November 26, 2007 11:11 PM (GMT)
.........Dun sell da 360!

SilverBlade - November 26, 2007 11:14 PM (GMT)
Why not? I would never in my life buy or play Halo and thats really the only OMG need to have exclusive 360 game. Besides Fable whch I've never nor do I intend to play.

Rocket Fingers - November 26, 2007 11:25 PM (GMT)
360 is too pwnsome.

SilverBlade - November 26, 2007 11:44 PM (GMT)
I almost never play it..the only downside is I would never get back the100 dollars I spent on xbox live stuff. And if I get carbon and all those game sI had for th eother consoles Id lose my saves..

Rocket Fingers - November 26, 2007 11:50 PM (GMT)
.....Then you can give it to me.

Superskater - November 26, 2007 11:58 PM (GMT)
Or you can throw it in the trash where it belongs!

Rocket Fingers - November 27, 2007 12:01 AM (GMT)
No, dun try to do anything Sam, I can get it from him!

SilverBlade - November 27, 2007 12:03 AM (GMT)

Superskater - November 27, 2007 12:04 AM (GMT)

SilverBlade - November 27, 2007 12:10 AM (GMT)

Rocket Fingers - November 27, 2007 11:54 PM (GMT)

SilverBlade - November 29, 2007 01:24 AM (GMT)

WHOA THUR PARTNER, TAKE IT EASY

Sorry, but Fable and Halo and 2 of the prime series on the 360. Also, think of Gears of War, Crackdown, and BANJO THREE

Banjo Three shall pwn, and I'll buy a 360 just for that if I have to.

Santa's Lil' Helper - December 29, 2007 02:28 AM (GMT)
Banjo 3 will phail compared to Brawl.

Silverbells - December 29, 2007 05:58 AM (GMT)
only reason im not trading in my 360 is cause i want rock band. thats it.

VampireOkapi - December 31, 2007 09:15 PM (GMT)
assasins creed for the 360, best game ever!

SilverBlade - December 31, 2007 09:25 PM (GMT)
Meh, if I had money I'd probably check that out. Isnt that the one where you can go like..anywhere you want?

VampireOkapi - December 31, 2007 09:31 PM (GMT)
you can, but its in a kind of order, id recomend oblivion, and despite the bad reviews two worlds is prety good.

SilverBlade - December 31, 2007 09:39 PM (GMT)
um...? That made no sense to me..at all..o.o

VampireOkapi - December 31, 2007 10:21 PM (GMT)
haha two worlds and oblivion are other 360 games..?

SilverBlade - January 8, 2008 10:20 PM (GMT)
Oh...k... :blink:

Xugoh - January 9, 2008 12:18 AM (GMT)
Shenmue 3 for the 360 will be the best game EVER and i mean EVER, EVER, EVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEER!!!!!!!!
