Ferathil Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 A good question, no modding or anything like that just stock machines, which is the bestest of them all, and why do you think so? 8)
Desiree Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 PC. You can dl the emulators for all kinds of gaming systems and play whatever you want *nods* *goes to play GBA on her lappy*
Dunbar Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 I'm a ps3 man, although I highly enjoy my 360 as well. Overall, the exclusives on the ps3 are just better (IN MY HUMBLE OPNINION) than those of the 360. Yes, gears 1 and 2 are awesome, yes, mass effect is awesome. But the Halo series? Doesn't do it for me. Other things.. Lost odyssey? That was okay. The ps3 ones, say Metal Gear Solid 4 and Killzone 2, however, have pleased me endlessly. Also, god of war III. Littlebigplanet, not so much : p. The wii was great fun, what with mario and zelda and super smash and no more heroes, but I've not enjoyed it much of late. Madworld might be good though.
mcs0083 Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 Xbox 360 Not only does it have the most GAMES out (because mini-game compilations aren't GAMES Nintendo!), but the reasoning behind the Ring of Death has been discovered. No doubt that the solution to prevent it from ever happening again will be found soon enough.
mcs0083 Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 But what if you get a virus hmm? What if you get itchy cheating fingers before you beat the game hmmm?
Far Dareis Mai Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 I'm also a pc gal. I have the other gaming consoles at home, but pc is a one stop shop for me.
mcs0083 Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 Meh It's true. But I consider Console and PCs to be a world apart.
Far Dareis Mai Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 It's true. I don't think you can really compare a pc to a gaming console. They ARE worlds apart. PC's are designed to do soooo much more than a gaming console, while a gaming console is created for one or two specific purposes. So if thread creator had put in the poll: What is your favorite gaming console? Then it would have been a better question to ask. But for all intents and purposes, PC is better, because it has more functionality.
Desiree Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 not only can you get emulators (tho he pointed out not all work to me last night, which i had forgotten) but there's endless flash games, MMOs, and other little things. role-playing can be considered gaming to an extent. I don't see any other console games that let you write stories back and forth with people across the country/world!
mcs0083 Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 Very true. What have you done to the poor boy to make his mind so warped Pol? :D
Ferathil Posted March 16, 2009 Author Posted March 16, 2009 Ya'll are nutz, my laptop does EVERYTHING I want/need it to, only thing I cannot get it to do is a PS2 emulator, it does everything prior, it plays the pS2 but very choppy, course it is a laptop with a 128MB video card, so I can say its a kick ass thing for something only 13" size ways. I love my 360, the Wii is great fun, but I stand by my original protest and spite, ...IF I WANT TO GET UP AND EXERSIZE WHILE PLAYING A GAME, I WILL GET ON A TREADMILL OR ANE EXERSIZE BIKE AND PLAY GAMES THAT WAY, I DO NOT LIKE THE IDEA OF BEING FORCED TO GET UP AND DO STUFF... Plus the latency on Zelda blew hard, I swing my controller and half a second later he swings his sword, got me killed more than once. PS3 looks great, but my whole desire of Playstation has dried up with the death of Square Soft, need to take that PS3 parody song about how they killed their brand and apply it to Squaresoft... :'( And I put the best gaming machine as the poll, which excludes anything else you can do with a computer, forums, movies, ect. as well as the consoles, ONLY gaming features being taken into consideration, yes Emulators, but as far as I know, there's no way in he|| to run a PS3 or 360 emulator on the computer, which means you get everything Legacy, but not the newest ones.
Desiree Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 flash/shockwave still count, right? cuz i could do deal or no deal for hours on my lappy :P
Ferathil Posted March 16, 2009 Author Posted March 16, 2009 :o I WILL MAKE A TRUE GAMER OUT OF YOU YET!!!!!! ;D *will force Pol to play REAL games when he gets home*
Desiree Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 *wants to play WoW* besides, i have more games i like on pc than on the console. even though I rather enjoyed the slightly-more-than mildly amusing gameplay of MySims on the Wii
ChronoCrosS Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 Downloaded Silent Hill the other day. Freaky, weird game.
Ferathil Posted March 16, 2009 Author Posted March 16, 2009 :o NO!!!!!!!!!!!!111111ONE!ONE!ONE111 DO NOT LET HER TRY OR KNOW ABOUT THAT GAME She has a hard enough time with MOVIES of that nature... a video game, I wouldn't sleep for a week :'(
Desiree Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 >_> <_< shush! *watched 40 days of night and did farely well and actually likes to watch the Grudge*
ChronoCrosS Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 Anyway, back to the topic at hand... A good PC will also kill in the graphics department. *nods*
Desiree Posted March 17, 2009 Posted March 17, 2009 yeah, but then again there's also the problem of having the correct software for the game... I couldn't play 3 of the games i got for christmas one year bc i needed some directx9 thing...
