• Is there sense in still buying a 360?

If you already have a decent PC and a PS3, I can't think of a reason why you'd need a 360.
The Sabotuer isn't worth $300, at all. Nor is RF: Guerilla.
[QUOTE=Take_Opal;18906360]The Sabotuer isn't worth $300, at all. Nor is RF: Guerilla.[/QUOTE] Opinion presented as fact >_> There's god knows how many games that aren't going to be on PC or PS3 for 360, so, I don't see why not.
Dude. Anyone who has that opinion is retarded. I bet you think Too Human is worth a 360 as well. [editline]07:55AM[/editline] And I don't think so. Now that the PS3 is doing amazing, I think most exclusives will be focused in the PS3. Exclusive content already flowing in.

Even though Too Human(Pre Patch) was fun. What about the fact Xbox Live is better? Or controllers? I'm saying preference. I think we're going to be seeing equal amount of exclusives coming up, then again, you can't be argued with. Oh, and just so you don't decide to throw shit around, I'm not saying any game is worth getting any console. The combination of games that appear on it is. There's no reason to have this argument either way. It comes down to personal preference, yours being that everyone listens to you, or is an idiot.
We're not talking about xbox live or the controllers. Is it really worth buying a $300 console for twitter, a few good indie games, and a monthly payment and a controller when you already have a PS3 and PC. Then again you're not seeing to reason. [editline]08:00AM[/editline] Although, I will not argue about the exclusive comment. Cause you're hopefully rite.
[QUOTE=INv3Rt;18899340]The 360 has great exclusives. The only Ps3 Exclusive I want is MGS4, but since they're making a MGS game for the 360, I'm probably going to feel the same gameplay.[/QUOTE] They're making an MGS game with Raiden, who is the flashiest person in the series, so you won't be seeing any stealth gameplay. I know Wiki says Stealth, but you can't have much of that with Raiden.
Yeah, MGS Rising doesn't seem like it's gonna be a full fledged Metal Gear Solid game. I think the PS3/PSP will retain the games with Big Boss/Snake. [editline]08:05AM[/editline] Although, I do enjoy Raiden. He was a bad ass in MGS4, your opinion may differ. Especially if you dislike anime.

If you already have a PC and PS3, what's so bad about getting a 360 then? It's his money to waste, I would do so if I could. I would have a PS3 right now if I had the extra money, so I just don't see why this is an argument. I would say, yeah, go right ahead and get it. It's overall just my opinion, what else is he going to spend it on?

I'm taking Opal's side in this, though he did troll the general Xbox thread, he does bring up some good points. Is there justification to buy a 360, if you already own a PS3 and a good PC. I would buy a 360 if I felt there were enough EXCLUSIVES to hold my interest, sadly I can not see enough. Give me enough GOOD exclusives and I will buy it, and don't say Forza 3 or the generic shooters(GoW3 and Halo3 I've played those at a friend's house, and didn't like them.).

It isn't a good decision cause he's hardly getting anything! He could get something else! If I had $300 rite now I'd buy a capture card. Or maybe Windows 7. Or even a few games. There are a lot of other things he could use his money towards. And he asked if there is sense. That is why this arguement exists. And there isn't any sense in buying one in his current situation.

I hold no investment in this, I just think it's silly, if he wants to do it, and I think there are more than enough exclusives if you ask me to more than make it reasonable.

Splinter cell games and the online is awesome. OH, one thing I want as well is the Crackdown series. Ace Combat 6, just looking at wiki now. Dead rising and Fable. I think that's about it. Name some more please :D
[QUOTE=jcallan;18880370]360 has been pretty much maxed out from what I've heard from Devs, so I wouldn't be so sure.[/QUOTE] Not really, the direct optimization which PC owners unfortunately lack can give a console radical changes. Just compare Halo to Halo 2.

So why not list those good exclusives and maybe the OP will make the correct decision (for you).
I hope so. And I meant hardly anything in hinesight to everything the PC and PS3 have. Like all the 360's features are possible with a PC or PS3

From what I've seen over the last few years is that all the exclusives on the PC became multiplatform. M$ really isn't above buying the competition.
I'll list my favorite Xbro games Lost Odyssey (I jus got it, just spent 6 hours today playin it; one of my favorite JRPGs) Dead Rising Halo 3 ODST Crackdown Fable II is so bad compared to the original which is so good. [editline]08:18AM[/editline] They're not making a Prey 2

I personally hate the idea of Natal. I only see really gimmicky games coming out for it. [editline]08:20AM[/editline] Oh, and Earth Defense Force 2017 is really bad but really fun.

[QUOTE=Take_Opal;18906724]I personally hate the idea of Natal. I only see really gimmicky games coming out for it.[/QUOTE] I can see quite a bit of potential for Natal, it's full-body motion capture. Though from what I saw at E3, it's still a bit rough, and I think the PS3 dual dildo controllers will do better thanks to their accuracy.
That's weird. I didn't think Prey sold enough. I could do without a sequel.

What I find funny is how they list console, but also on PC as exclusive games. I don't know about you, but if it's with Microsoft, I'd rather have it on PC.

And a bunch of those to me, are just 100% unappealing on the PC. I have a PC that can run Crysis at High/Very High, and yet I don't feel comfortable with any game that isn't an FPS on a PC. They just don't make sense.

There was never sense in buying a 360 unless you like dealing with faggoty 12 year olds screaming over the mic calling everyone fags.
