Why thank you.I believe we both are beginning to miss the point and just went into an attack toward one another.I apologize. You do have your opinion as does everyone else including myself.The big thing aside what our own preferences are is I hope all 3 consoles are way better than their previous ones. Lets hope these 3 companies don't F up on that.The main thing though that I am expecting in the finalized released versions of the consoles are 1. GFX and 2. Games. Theres no point in getting a console if they don't have those two elements. Because I could have a cheap computer with the minimum requirements and still play games and do more.Lets hope theres no disappointment.

Actually just stating my point unlike yourself. And yes I was at E3. And no your mistaken about the footage. Besides that a select few of us (around 30 to be exact) were taken "backstage" to test out all three consoles. Since I've done business with Peter Hitachi I was able to test the 3 consoles out. PS3-I was disappointed in the look of the new controller but strangely has a confortable feel to it. Graphics of the console, amazing. Gameplay, well they do have the best games. Nin-Gameplay was crap, so far, but graphic were pretty good and everything else I enjoyed. 360-I hate MS, but the logarythmns were very good, but we all agreed the graphics were sub par. Still don't like their controller. I don't know where you forum fanboys get your info, but like always, your mistaken with was you say. The 3 "beta" consoles did show game play and CGI. Theres one thing I can guarantee you guys is that all 3 consoles are going to go through a major "make over" graphically, console looks, and games. E3 showed them what's right with their new consoles and what must go. Lets hope they follow through.

Misinformed? Funny I was at the Expo when they unleashed all 3 consoles (xbox360, ps3, and the nintendo) and everyone there agreed that the xbox 360 is a great disappointment. I have facts and insiders I know what I'm talking about.And no shyte its the drivers and pluggins you need because of MS OS unstability. Check your facts on that. First off I have friends and family that work for MS, Blizzard, in the IT world (including myself), and programming. I know my shyte.And your right that the console doesn't make the game, but we are discussing the consoles as a whole, read the topic. And I agree they fixed the controllers but you still had the issue of the buttons, well at least I hated them and how they were located on the controllers.PS2 did surpass Xbox in visuals in the latter, though. Early on they had platform issues (GD did) once that was fixed the graphics were just as good if not better than Xbox. The cube always had better than both of them, but had no games (of interest) because of the contracts being bought out by both MS and Sony.Thank you, get a brain The Bob.

Xbox had a few problems from the beginning. 1. it is grossly oversized. 2. the controller sux (of course like anything once you get use to it its kool, but i refuse.) 3. their games (on an overall) suck, for the reason of sony has the contracts with the best game developers. 4. it maxed out its graphic quality at the beginning. when PS2 and xbox were newly released xbox raped PS2 in graphics, i for one hated that but it turned out that the reason that occured was the GDev were having an issue with PS2 platform. once they fixed that PS2 surpased xbox in visuals.xbox's upsides: its saving systems is great because of the internal HD. and because of the HD, if you just upgrade it you can rip every single game xbox has.PS2 upsides: graphics, games, look (sleekness, controller, etc). oh and you dont have to buy a $20 dvd control to play dvd's.PC has many downsides but it all goes back to MS. 90-95% of the worlds home PC usage is MS and everyone hates it. Compatability issues are because of MS. Aside that the other issue is money. Its upsides are: greater content, gameplay, graphics, experience. and i would agree in the end it is the game play. i myself love graphics but wont play a game unless its good. and hear this from many gamers. theyll play a game with 1970s graphics on it if the game play is godly. and you are mistaken "the bob" with two things: if you went to the gamers expo you would know that the new xbox 360 so far is a great disappointment with very little graphic improvement and horrible games. while the PS3 was a rave with 5X's better graphics and amazing games. no surprise to me. and second PC games are not on a drop, in fact they have been on a rise since the late 90s with the introductions of diablo 2, starcraft, call of duty, CS, WoW just to name a few.

I would have to agree with MIMI M, PC games should stay on PC.

Actually Xbox360 playing PC games is interesting. But how big is the HD gonna be? Considering most PC games now a days are by the Gigs. And not having a PC in this world now a days is quite ridiculous. Most games minimum requirements are way less than some systems that you can pick up for $500 bucks. Memory issues (HD or RAM) are always dependant on the user. Keeping up with my "hunk of junk"? Compatibillity issues? Memory problems? My hunk of junk (see bottom). Compatibility issues are nonexistant in PC games unless you have apple (which I love) and if there are any thank your friendly MS rapist. And if you are running at least 512MB you are fine doing whatever on a computer. Dumping ridiculous amounts of money in a PC? That's a statement that doesn't make sense. Want to know why? Ask anyone who has dumped "ridiculous" amounts of money on their PC and they'll tell you every penny was worth it. I myself (and I'll tell you my system specs at the end) need a powerful computer for the work I do, (own business, graphic artist). And if you don't play games for their graphics then your PC would be fine because the only reason you get the RAM and GC is to have the best graphics and gameplay. You like the Xbox games, kool. I myself hate most the Xbox games on there, but then again there are some games I love. Between the two console I'm a sony man by far. But between the 3 the best would have to be the PC because its sooo customizable, more useful, multitasking, powerful, and needed (although money always factors in). Alright, done with the flaming and lets move on to bigger and better things. I apologize to you Divest for "insulting" or whatever, but I usually tend to do that so don't take it to the heart. Most of the reason was I was lite up by MS, I just hate MS such a piece. Well here is my "hunk of junk": P4 3.4GHz HT (Don't have to buy a processor for at least 3 more years) 300GB HD (Got Gigs porn, huge software and still have 200 Gigs to go) 3GB RAM (I just upgraded and boy its nice) ATI 9800Pro (I want to upgrade but with this GC its great)

Wow!!! Was that president Bush speaking above me? First off anything MS is crap. Trust me I know, I work at for an IT company and we love MS because its always broken. Second remember back when everyone said the Xbox was better than the PS2 just because it had better graphics? Well something happened the game manufacturers got smart and set up the games to perform with the PS2 (like it wasn't doing at the begining) and now PS2 games totally rape Xbox games in performance and seem to have to cap at the moment. This will continue in PS3 I can guarantee that because Bill Gates isn't running Sony. Another thing is PS will always have better games than Xbox and just because Xbox can run PC games doesn't mean Shytte. You still have a computer don't you? Well are you gonna just get rid of it? I think not. A pc will always be better than these consoles because if you have the cash you set up a dirty system and they will run sweet games. Why do you have an Xbox right now? Two reasons and I can name them. 1. Halo. 2. You can rip every single game xbox has with its HD. Simple you save money by upgrading the HD to at least 200GB get a month pass at blockbuster or something and ripping all their games.And why do you have a PS2? Simple its the shytte, simple, sleak like always and doesn't have issues. The games are overall the best and oh yeah and that controller is 80 times better than anything out there.But thats my opinion. I'll stick to my mostly PCing and buy the PS3 a year after it comes out when it drops in price.

From what I have heard about WOW has been mixed nuts. Half love it, half hate it. All of the answers are the same. People who love it (including myself) love how in depth it is with thousands of quest, big territory, graphics (if you have the comp to handle it) and the total environment and experience of the game and not to mention that most players aren't dicks like in most games and have no problem helping a noob out.People who hate it say its either to easy to level up or too hard. (I, myself find it hard but once you get use to it to start finding out the tricks of the trade). Theres not much you can do when you hit lv 60. The grinding is boring and tedious (true, but aren't all RPG's? and with WOW its the only RPG that the creatures give you very useful items most of the time). I personally think some of these players just bought online services and are now gripping that they've paid too much or are using hacks (which Blizzard cracked down hardcore on).From my experience's of playing WOW I have found things I loathe and love with the game. Most of the things I dislike can easily be updated to make the game swifter and "easier" in the game. For example for quests: I'd like more flagging on the map when you start or finish a quest to know at least what vasinity the quest is located because if you don't have a clue or help from a guild you can spend hours running around (thats another thing that sux) looking for a quest where you might die immediately or finish the quest spent 2 hours and get no XP at all. Also I've always like "grinding" throughout the history of RPG's (FF for example were great to grind and not get bored), but "grinding" is always boring. The thing I don't like, or at least at the moment is you just don't get enough XP, but you get it in the sense of money in the items the creatures drop. So far my income has done very well for my lv (Orc Warrior lv 20) and the only thing frustrating me is are the quest because of the lack of motivation to go run around for hours. The key with a good RPG is less running around doing nothing and more doing anything. As long as you are doing something you are at least in the game and not bad off. I feel the problem with most of these WOW hardcore gamers that leveled up to 60 in 3 weeks then cancelled their account and began to complain was they didn't enjoy the whole experience of WOW. I've met many level 60 chars that have come to me (at lv 15) to help them with their skills (mining, alchemy, etc.) that is a lot of fun when you can master them all. Theres so much to do and not enough time IMO. Soon enough, by the end of the year or early next year (from what I have heard) WOW Battlefield (forgive me if I'm not even close with the expansions name) will be released and there has been talk that you can lv up too 120. Now that sounds like fun to me.The only thing I hate but I chewed it up and swallowed it was the monthly fee. I had never paid monthly for any game no matter how good it was. I always thought that was stupid of people. You've just paid 40-80 bucks on a game and now you are gonna start giving them 15-30 bucks more a month. Crazy. But hey the game is that in depth and good. You just have to play it like the game is meant and experience everything. Don't just rush through it or you won't see everything. I mean just taking a ride on one of the flying transports (bats, griffins, etc) are amazing. Oh and the buttons and camera angles are great. I don't have much to hate about it because Blizzard worked hard on this game to make it good and they keep upgrading it. I mean they still come out with patches to SC and D II, they make sure gamers like/love their games and respect the gamers by keeping their games working at a high level. Well that was my two cents.
