Straight from our friends at Destructoid.

"Please remember, this is not an indictment of the Xbox 360. I love the system. However, the Xbox 360 is kind of like a drunk driver getting into a horrible car crash, then pulling his passengers free of the wreckage and heroically saving their lives. Sure, they're incredibly grateful for the brave thing he did, but he shouldn't have been f*cking drunk driving in the first place."

This encapsulates the feelings I h...

You think they would learn from the PS3. Why is it not selling as well as the Xbox? Well, it's not because it's an inferior system or anything, they're pretty much on par, one wins in graphics/power, the other in social connectivity, it's just that it's too damn expensive. Yes, I bought the $500 60GB sku shortly after launch, but how many of my friends did the same? 0.

To me, $60 is enough for a game, almost too much even which is why I tend to get PC games whenever possible. ...

I've been seeing so much about APB and the Agency lately that it's just getting pathetic. Unless these games are spectacular, which I doubt they will be, they won't spawn any Fatal1ty like celebrities. I don't even know how that dweeb even became famous. I mean, really, he only played Quake and Counterstrike and since then his name has only been on sound cards. He's lower that the lowest washed up sitcom star.

On the subject of what game is going to spawn the next video game cele...

I never thought Nintendo, or the Conduit especially had fanboys... LoL. Whatever, I don't have a Wii anymore so I couldn't give 2 sh!ts either way. In my personal opinion, going home, sitting back and playing CoD 4 or Halo 3 is much more relaxing then dancing in front of my tv like an idiot...

I hope they sell gazillions of copies...

Only one problem though, those graphics look damn good..

And damn nice looking graphics need a nice computer which is always pretty expensive.

Even so, I invested in another gaming PC about a year ago so I'm good.

I really, really hope they sell especially Diablo 3. My best friend, who has never been a pc gamer EVER, has just enlisted my help to build a gaming PC that would put mine to shame... All ...

PC Exclusives. Diablo 3, Arma 2, Sims 3. These are the kind of games I presume he's referring to.

And yes, I agree 100%. I really wish more developers would go PC only, but unfortunately, it's kind of a niche now.

When I say niche, I mean the type of games and audience. I am excluding games like, WoW, for instance, because the hardware requirements are so low that anyone can play it. (mostly)

I think it's because of the economic dilemma most studios fa...

I have been and always will be a pc gamer first. Consoles are good in their own way, but have also damaged pc gaming immensely. I miss the days when PC gaming was cutting edge. When there were way more good games for the computer than console (1999ish). Hopefully, those days come back. A few stragglers remain though, Crysis and Operation Flashpoint 2 are promising but, unfortunately, they're out for console as well.

What hurts consoles most (other than graphical limitations whic...

Because almost every game I have played of Gears 2 had been plagued by lag and connectivity problems like when searching for a room.

I've tried the game at the house of multiple friends too, same problem.

Gears 1 was a laggy piece of sh!t too, and apparently the apple didn't fall too far from the tree.

I'd play Halo 3 or Call of Duty any day over Gears of War or any other title made by that scumbag Cliffy B...

And that's why I had to get a pc up to specs. They're my favorite genre. I like playing games that are as realistic as possible and nothing gets more realistic than an OP Flash or Arma game.

A while back I purchased a rig with:

Q6600 Quad Core at 2.6 GHZ
4 GB Ram (cant remember what speed)
750 GB hard drive
DVD Reader/Burner
8800 GTS with 512 MB VRAM
650 watt power supply
1440x900 16:10 Monitor with 75 hertz refresh rate

LMFAO - I have a disagree when stating no opinion but pure fact. Some users on this site are ridiculous...

If I even say anything remotely pro-PS3, Xbox fanboys reduce my bubbles...

Or vice versa, especially if I say Xbox Live is better than PSN. GOD FORBID!!!

Even though I have BOTH systems and acknowledge in most of my posts that they both have their pros and cons, I still get negative feedback.

But fanboys pay no attention to reason or logic. All they know is that their respective console is the best and nothing can convince them otherwise.

I bought an absolute top of the line rig about a year and a half and it just exceeds the recommended specs. The minimum specs are the highest I've ever seen too for any pc game so far.

I'm already getting this one, but I fear it may try to kick my rig's ass worse than Crysis did.

But the list is ultimately lacking. Final Fantasy 6 was sick, but 7 will always reign as the FF king to me.

They also forgot about Zelda Ocarina of time...

That Natal is not going to have the huge impact that the Wii had, and that's obviously what they're shooting for.

When I get home at night, I want to grab my controller, slap in some Halo 3 or Call of Duty 4, and relax, not dance in front of my television like an idiot.

That's why I don't have a Wii. It's just not my forte. It's for children and the occasional party, not an everyday gamer.

Sorry Microsoft, but this decision may come back to bite you i...

I love these fantastic, outlandish, over the top titles. The DEATH of DVD.

Really????

Look at the numbers, DVD's death is not coming any time soon.

Just like the FAILED PS3,
or the Xbox 360 DOOMED BY RROD.

These titles are so sensational just to get more page views, and more advertising dollars. Want a good example? Look at the outrageous titles on every story featured on the "Hip Hop Gamer" site. None of them speak real news...
