I liked Xbox 1 much more than my PS2

...but I should have known then that charging for "access" to the DVD player and those mysterious rings on my discs was a sign of worse things to come

For the amount of money I spent on 360 I could have just built a gaming rig AND bought a PS3.

20gig 360 2006-2007 (RIP) =$400
Live = $60x5 years or $300 (and counting)
Rechargeable Batteries = $20
New controller because anal...

I don't plan on buying FF13-2 because I had the first and loved it until it became "open" and boring IMO but...

Uncharted gets praised despite being linear because it offers a cinematic experience.

FF get destroyed for a linear experience despite offering a very cinematic experience.

I don't get it.

I'm very happy I own both consoles but I recommend PS3 to people that can only afford one.

In Canada Live doesn't have any extra features/services over PSN (maybe even less), still costs $60 and movie rentals and DLC is 25%-40% more expensive.

Also, Blu-Ray and cheap upgradable HDs is nicer to have than not have.

Games-wise, I spend an equal time on both so it's moot.

Only ridiculous PR people can convince themselves that they''d be dominating the FPS market if they could knock the champ down from 90%-70% control.

I'd say that's improvement but no where near domination.

That's kinda true actually.

The devs intended for MP to be part of the $60 purchase, but MS says you can't play what you're already paid for until you pay Microsoft Tax.

I wouldn't be surprised if MS eventually charged for newer versions of console OSs eventually.

Who cares, just make sure your kid never divulges any personal info on the net/Live, shouldn't they already know that.

Who cares, Move has no games.

I love it with Killzone 3 but I bought it more for dedicated Move games, that either all suck or don't exist.

If MS goes all digital they can forget about selling many consoles in Canada.

We have some of the worst ISPs in the western world, we pay more and get less.

Point is, we have tiny bandwith caps so no one would be able to buy a game without paying another 20 bucks to the ISP for going over monthly limits.

My friends and I were excited to play DC Universe because we heard it was pretty good, go to download it, see it's 18 gigs and then pa...

As long as we're living in fantasy land, it should make sandwiches too.

360 looks significantly bit better, but I still hate how every 360 game totally crushes blacks.

Very cool.

I'm not particularly a fan of any of the characters, especially the main (ugh) Lightning so I don't want it. I'd prefer a clean slate of all new people or FF7/8/12-2

I think Square needs to rethink who their target audience is and make Final Fantasy games a little less effeminate and metro-sexual. Teeny-girls love Justin Beiber like guys, not many gamers do.

Also, they need some bad ass villains again - they've completely vanished. No one s...

Do people even play these games any more.

The only RPGs that need MP are MMOs, unless it's co-op but even then, Rather have a longer SP than co-op horde-like missions.

MP in Mass Effect 3 is a waste of resources. I rather Bioware made anything SP related to MP -even a CG that shows what happened between installments would have been preferable.

People will check it out for 10 mins, maybe say, "hey that didn't suck", then go play BF3 or COD or some other MP focused game.

Whoever launches after should see what the other's specs are, match'em and just add a bit more memory so all multiplats look better on it.

I hate to say it about the legend but Miyamoto is starting to lose it.

He's also the reason why 3DS has only one analog stick.

Lol @ people thinking that all the games mentioned don't require skill.

If someone is consistently better at a game then they have more skill - doesn't matter how easy the controls are.

...as long as they don't cheat of course.

PC gamers should be venting there frustration on pirates not Ubisoft...but most of them probably have pirated stuff too.

This can't be true because it's illegal but if it were, thanks god for online passes - it just feels wrong typing that but such are the times.
