Let all your hate for the Wii, PS3, and 360 here. Think the 360 is a defective piece of shit? Think the Wii is for kids? Think the PS3 is an overrated piece of shit that just plays Blu Ray Movies? Well tell us why they suck but don't just say spam crap like "GayStation 3", "Shitbox 360", etc. Instead explain what you don't like about them and tell us why your console is better. Remember now use some logic in your hate. Spam will not be tolerated. But logical hate posts is perfectly acceptable.


I'll start this off. Remember how everybody said "PS3 doesn't have any good games"? Well now what the fuck can you say when the PS3 has Uncharted 2, God of War 3, Heavy Rain, Killzone 2, MGS4, and Resistance 2? These exclusives kill the 360's list of exclusives. The 360 has what? Mass Effect 2? A god damn sex simulator.

Already had the exclusives argument, basically Halo and Gears > Any Ps3 Exclusives sales and such prove it. Sure Ps3 has a few more exclusives but none of them sell as much as the 2 games I listed. Proof if needed.

It's so typical for xbots to bring up the sales. How's Forza Motorsport 3 selling? Not as good as Gran Turismo 5 Prologue(A demo). It's not doing much better than Gran Turismo PSP if you count digital sales. Pretty funny.

Who gives a fuck about racing games.

What about Halo, some say it suck, most only hate it becuase its popular but how do any of you exclusives match up, have any even sold half as many copys of Halo. I'm willing to say when Reach drops it doubles the first day sales of GoW 3.

I love how GTA IV became a 360 game before a Ps3 game...

Great job giving out Playstations top game to their rival system :)

It's still sales. Gran Turismo destroys Forza in sales. If you want to use sales to back up your claims than Modern Warfare 2 would be the best game. When in fact it's an overrated piece of shit. Sure sales is a part of the war but it's probably the least important part.

Please do explain to me how a game can be over rated, honestly video games are one thing that is hard to be over rated, either it sucks and doesn't sell, or its good and it does, the more people that like it the more it sells, how do you account for over rated there.

You compare game sales to when the playstation hardly had a US install base, gears was one of the first few games for the xbox so of course it's going to outsell ps3 games, halo is the mega of all games with exceptions to Mario and GTA, it's expected to sell.

Just look at sales starting from last Christmas when that gave the ps3 3 years out on the market and at an affordable price, ps3 version of Dante's Inferno sold more than the Xbox 360 version and if you include Japanese sales I will 100% promise you that FF13 will outsell the 360, MW2 outsold ps3 last month but not by a huge amount.

Don't bitch about ME2 sex simulator when GOW3 had sex mini games in it. Call the wii shit but it is a great console for just fun, it caters to the hardcore audience while also catering to the general public, something that a certain modern warfare 2/halo does as well.

Out of the consoles I have a PS3 and a wii, I'm a loyal Sony guy but pretty much cuz sega is out of the market(though making kick ass games) and I've had 3 defunct xbox360's, while only 1 power problem with PS3.

I like the wii cuz I can play games with my dad when in town cuz there's only 2 buttons to worry about.

Trophies and achievements/gamerscore are gay in my opinion, oh you want a high score, how about getting some pussy instead. PS3 has free online service(for now) and xbox has a subscription. I like ps3's blu Ray capabilities but hardly anyone uses it to full extent, I would personally like it if they added a making of the game featurette on the games with commentary from te creators.

PS3 has great exclusives, 360's exclusives has pretty much made most games their bitch, and nintendo proves again and again why they are king, why hate when you can just enjoy games.

I'm a firm believer in that games should be made availabe for digital download(like PC games are with Direct2Drive) and that will cause for more sales.

Another thing that could play future into gaming is the ipad technology(wouldn't it be great for route creating in madden, a console version of Trauma Center, RTS games on consoles)

The Wii is on a whole different level of gamers, Ps3 and 360 is for serious, Wii is for fun, I have no problem with the Wii cuase shit every once in a while I want to kick back and play me some Mario.

Because Modern Warfare 2 sucks yet it sells 17 million copies. Just because it sells doesn't make it good. If the game is a piece of shit, it's a piece of shit. Regardless of sales. GTA4 is another overrated piece of shit.

Ever thought your wrong, if it sell 17 million copies that means a whole hell of alot of people don't think it sucks, which actually makes it good. Also GTA 4 online is hella fun and the story was awesome.

Same with Halo, if it sucks so bad then why do shit tons of people swear by it and contentious to buy the games time after time.

Plain and simple video games can't be over rated, its probably just the fact that you have different taste then 99% of other gamers.

Nope judging from the reader averages of MW2, a lot of people think it's a piece of shit.

Those are the same people who whine about the short story, which as short as they saw it was one bad ass story, are the same people who play the multiplayer 24/7. No matter how addicting they find a game they'll always find something to bitch about.

Lots of people have moved back to CoD4 or WAW. MW2 is just an overrated piece of shit. It should have been 10x the game, considering it had a huge ass budget.

Honestly I have to back up Nation. Now, don't get me wrong a few years ago I was totally a Xbot lol but over the last year or so the PS3 has most definetely stepped their game up and the PS3 exclusives totally shit on the 360 now. Sure, they don't have GTA and Final Fantasy as exclusives anymore but the exclusives that they have are 10X better then the 360 exclusives imo.

God of War 3>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Anything that 360 Has tbh.
