XBOX360

I feel I've been targeted. Those of you that know me, know I Love Zombie Movies and the likes. Imagine my feelings when last couple of weeks I seen a new video game comming out called "Dead Rising" where you play a dude in a mall filled with Zombies all trying to eat you. The catch? This Game would only be out for the xbox360. What to do, what to do? I'm not one that buys a new game system, and even know the 360 has been out for about a year, the price hasn't really dropped. But I did my best to risist, but I couldn't hold myself back. So I'm just getting home now from a walmart supercenter with the Xbox360 white boxed, and the new game.

Well it was nice hanging out with you all while it lasted, but I think I've something pressing to do. razz

Nice knowing you.

Dead Rising is by far the best game out so far for the 360 thumbs up! Saying that you will find the mall security guard annoying when he calls you every 10 minutes, whilst you're sawing the heads of zombies mad

However, for those of you with a 1080p HDTV at least 32inches and have 7.1 surround, I say go for a PS3 thumbs up! Mind you, there will be little in exclusive games for either 360 or PS3 until about end of 2007, and as developers learn how to program PS3 to it's potential, graphics/gameplay will be very similar on both systems. And also, buy a PS3 just for this baby:

I'm not sure, but I think when he calls you, that you are suposed to go where he told you to save some fool so that you can get extra life and stuff. I'm going to have to look into a tatorial.

You tube explans it best:

http://www.youtube.com/wa...ch=sony+e3

You will see what i'm (and many in the gaming community) are lol-ing at.

Basically last year the head of Sony said the system ran in 4D, which as you may know is time & space, so unless the flux-capacitor is built-in i doubt it will LOL.

Last year they also showed the world the new PS3 controller:


the world made fun of it...then this year..


-Last year Nintendo announced they would be adding motion-sensing abilities into their controller for the Wii...this year sony announces its latest innovation: Motion sensing controllers!

-Last year Nintendo announces free online gaming service and game downloads...this year sony announces, SHOCK, free online gaming and PSX downloads!! OMG! Then Sony goes onto say that Microsoft is copying them...wen they are blatently copying Microsoft's LIVE service down to the exact fonts LOL.

-Next day at the E3 expo (where i and many gaming journo's and retailers get to sample and play PS3 and all the new stuff), the queues to try the PS3's were NON-EXISTANT...and when i say that i really mean *no* lines. The lines at Nintendo's booth however went for well over 5 hours on some days and they had to turn people away. If the game dev's, jurno's and retailers had no interest in PS3 its really not looking good.

Oh and the fact that its $599USD at launch, with NO decent games for the first year...makes you wonder why you'd want one...i mean they lost GTA, DevilMayCry is heading to other systems, Solid Snake is doing the rounds on other systems...its just such a dumb option when a 360 + Wii are available at less than the total of 1 PS3...

PS: there is no more dual shock available for PS3 controllers since sony stole the technology back in the PS1 days and never got permission, now they are getting sued for it. But why is there rumble in 360 pads and the Wii pads? Well Micro$oft just signed a huge-ass cheque to the inventors, and Nintendo invented their own rumble feature back in 94/95', so they dont have to pay anyone. there are some other points but i'll shut up and let u watch the you tube vid...enjoy.

Just to let you guys know.

I work for a videogames company and I can tell you now that all demos you've seen for "ps3 games" have been running on Xbox360 devkits. shocking but true. the ps3 is that hard to get working at the moment.

No! He's spewing truth. You've all been fucking roped into brand loyalty. the wii will be the runaway hit of this console war due to its innovation and cheap price. the ps3 is a ridiculously large, hot, buggy, over-hyped console. It has no stand out games coming out for it, it's delayed up the ying-yang, covered in copyright protection software and to top it all, it's really, really expensive. The Xbox360 is, and I mean IS, equal in power to the PS3 despite what Sony will spout out of their big corporate arse and right now analysts are predicted Microsoft + Nintendo 1, sony 0.

I hear on the grapevine that if Nintendo and Microsoft win this console war their next console will be a joint venture. cloud9 It's also likely that Sony will throw a huge hissy fit if they lose this war and either not produce a console for the next generation, or will produce a really cheap pile of piss to say "you should have rolled with us last time"

Ive had my 360 for about 4 months now, (Im still eating ramen noodles). The games Ive played so far on it have made it worth not eating real food. Call to Duty is by far the realist of games Ive ever seen. Right now Im on my 2nd month of Quake 4. I havent played 1-3 but this game, wow, this game is intense! Up there with Halo as far as being a great, great FPS. And it has zombie like creatures. So I so suggest this system and WHEN THE HELL IS HALO 3 COMING???

I'm also a retailer in the games industry, and PS3 pre-orders are slim-to-none.

Looks like X360 and Wii are the way to go next gen...i suggest you do your research before you purchase a $599USD GAME system...

X360 has the exact same graphical output as a PS3, so if your a graphics nut, there shouldnt be a problem there...
