[QUOTE=Hezzy;17163760]This thread is absolutely fucking ridiculous. The vast majority of the posters in this thread didn't even read the first post and are just being aggressive, opinionated arseholes with no decent argument at all.[/QUOTE]
Before you jump on the bandwagon "Oh i don't likee xobx rated damb :downs:", take a minute to read the thread and actually think about what TF2 is about (spoilers: it's about fun). This thread isn't trying to convince you to play console TF2 forever and never touch your PC again, it's about presenting an alternative to the current moralist/cheater shit that's been going on.
It should be worth noting that you can buy The Orange Box for Xbox 360 for about $15 at GameStop.
I don't mind if you disagree. As long as you read the thread, your opinion is valid, and I will respect it.

TF2 on Xbox is boring because it doesn't have the new maps & unlocks.
[b]Truth[/b]
It's still fun. Saying it's boring without the unlocks is like saying that TF2 was boring at release.[/quote]

There's a lot of little kids.
[b]Truth[/b]
The console TF2 community is actually very mature. With [i]any[/i] game, you're bound to have little kids somewhere.[/quote]
[quote][b][u]Myth[/u][/b]
Controllers are hard to play with in first person shooters.
[b]Truth[/b]
It's not. If you're used to Mouse & Keyboard, you'll probably need to get used to the controller. I don't have any problems navigating and getting kills.[/quote]
[quote][b][u]Myth[/u][/b]
PC is better than Xbox 360 (TF2-wise)
[b]Truth[/b]
It's all about opinion. On Xbox 360, when you see a Scout, you know he has to get close to do damage. On PC, that Scout might have a Sandman.[/quote]
[quote][b][u]Myth[/u][/b]
Xbox 360 TF2 doesn't get any patches that fix bugs and shit.
[b]Truth[/b]
We do. However, we don't get as many. For the most part, stuff needs fixing on PC due to class updates and new maps. On Xbox, since we don't have the new maps/weapons, we don't need as many patches.[/quote]
[quote][b][u]Myth[/u][/b]
There's no teamwork on Xbox 360.
[b]Truth[/b]
When you talk to your team, they listen. If you know what you're doing, they'll take your advice. They'll work with each other, if needed.[/quote]
[quote][b][u]Myth[/u][/b]
People on Xbox LIVE are mean little shits.
[b]Truth[/b]
Everyone is actually very friendly on TF2. Unless you say that the PC version is better and then start bitching about the lack of updates. Nobody wants to hear that.[/quote]
[quote][b][u]Myth[/u][/b]
Spies are garbage.
[b]Truth[/b]
Yeah, for the most part. However, there's a couple Spies that are really good, and I consider myself one of them.[/quote]
[quote][b][u]Myth[/u][/b]
Everyone is stupid on Xbox LIVE.
[b]Truth[/b]
It's like on PC, some people are stupid, some people aren't.[/quote]
[quote][b][u]Myth[/u][/b]
Everyone disables everything but the Sniper.
[b]Truth[/b]
People pretty much just limit Snipers to two, and leave the rest of the classes alone. On occasion you get a single-class game (like an all Spy game), but for the most part there's normal games.[/quote]
[quote][b][u]Myth[/u][/b]
Everyone mods and it's really laggy.
[b]Truth[/b]
Only a few people mod, and the lag is almost nonexistent as long as you pay attention to the connection strength when looking for a server. Whenever there's modding, it's normally for fun. Stuff like low gravity, HL2 maps, and item spawning for host is common in mod games. I've see people take 2fort and basically make a new map out of it with mods. It's fun.[/quote]
I already have the Orange box on the 360, and I'll tell you now TF2 was a laggy unupdated piece of crap. Call it a myth if you want, but you're biased and I couldn't give 2 shits what you say.
Also, 11 dumb ratings on OP, Facepunch agrees bro

When did you last play? We got a patch recently.
Also, how am I biased?
I played my friends copy of TF2 on the Xbox, generally speaking many people don't know what the fuck they're doing and the games are usually limited to like 8 players. In my opinion i think Xbox version is worse than the PC version, but it is still bearable to play.
Hahahahno
Why play tf2 on the xbox with lame controls and handicapped when you can just play the pc version which is always updated and complete and is soo much better?
Besides, consoles are a clear waste of money, and no1 can deny this...

That. Something says you're being paid by Valve to exploit this rich TF2 fiasco.

Really? I mean, I get a few people here and there that don't know what they're doing, but after giving them a few tips they really help the team. I'm not saying they know as much as people do on PC, because they don't. But they're not total garbage.

Also, how are consoles a waste of money?
I'm gonna stick with the PC version, everyone will stop bitching soon.
Oshit some internet tough guy is rating people dumb.
[b]GET IN COVER[/b]

I'm saying give it a try if you already have an Xbox. Should I say "Try this kinda if you want maybe please" instead?

Alright, that's cool. I just wanted to present a possible alternative. :P
I read it, and i don't even have an xbox. But yeah, aside from slight gameplay issues if all you want is to get away from the drama it could be a good alternative.

like me :cool: but my 360 is red ringed and has been for about two years and we don't really care.

don't care about the 360 being red ringed.

I'm saving up to buy a year's subscription to Xbox Live. Bloody expensive.

It's like $60 in the US. You could get a monthly subscription.
I owned tf2 on the 360, everyone sucked. The pc version of TF2 is [B]much[/B] better than the 360 version.
No.
And consoles suck anyway.
You can play vanilla servers, its like tf2 from the start. I have the console version,it's laggy, unupdated, everybody sucks so it's not a challenge and therefore not fun, no voice commands, no patches, sentries in the sky, i only ever see 10 servers up, it's really not that fun.

Did you even read the thread?
The 360 version was horridly bad. And if your only rebuttal is "Why so stupid?" I don't even see a reason to argue with you.
[QUOTE=Agoat;17139512]
Also, how are consoles a waste of money?[/QUOTE]
Its pretty clear. A PC can do almost anything these days, unlike a console which even though their evolving, they still cant do as much. If you talk about games, its pretty much the same thing. Games on the pc are always much better then on consoles. Problems with controls? No problem! Get a gamepad and play it like you would on a console. Trouble in finding games? Not really, most games that are released for consoles nowadays are also released for PC, with the exception of some. Hardware problems? No problem in a computer! Just replace whats malfuntioning or fix it if able. On a console, you just replace the whole goddamn thing, while on a pc, you only do this if something BAD happened.
Face it. A pc is just much better then any console. Always has been. Its not something limited to a handfull of things, it doesnt costs a shipload of money to buy a new good 1 ( my new pc which is quite good even though it could be MUCH better costs the same as the ps3 costed when it was released) and it rarely gives trouble.
The only bad things about it are some games not getting released for the pc or some being released on consoles before because of the piracy.
Why waste money on an expensive door jammer when you can get something that actually is usefull and alot better for the same price or even less?
I'd rather not put up with a guy called xxXXh4l0sn1p3rXXxx crying about how his modded controller doesn't work with the heavy. I've watched my brother play, the game is full of morons, and the server hosts tend to be the ones with modified savedata, allowing them to abuse various things.

And you're just a watered down version of sentience.
Consoles and PCs excel in different areas, so it's difficult to compare the two.
