I like how 3 of the reasons boil down to "360 was better" as though that matters.

Does a more powerful game console lead to better games? Even though the PS3 has more internal horsepower, this isn't translating into a better gaming experience -- at least one that shows in the sales charts.




so game sales correlate to graphics. okay

I'm not on either side of this debate, but this article is juvenile.

was i supposed to take this article as for real

Microsoft's vision for the next gen console war isn't concerted on a single area. Instead, its putting its money on a holistic approach to winning the hearts and minds of gamers and media consumers alike

The only exclusive on XBox that is remotely interesting is that Ryse game and even then its just a GoW ripoff with a Roman history paintjob.

$100 cheaper and The Show, getting an Xbox One was never even a thought for me.

I also do enjoy the other exclusives.

All his points are for 360 vs PS3.

Good point. The masses love the comfortably known. . .even when the product is inferior.

2. Microsoft's Online Gaming Backbone Puts Sony (and Nintendo) to Shame
Not a fair point.

Going to a subscription platform should effect change.

He's comparing apples to oranges.

1. Modern Consoles Are Entertainment Hubs -- And the Numbers Prove It
Yes. People are using them for that reason in increasing numbers.

But they are still choosing platforms for gaming reasons. . .and almost always based on ip's.



Look, I think both systems are going to be shite-hot. They have pushed each other in a huge way, and we will all benefit.

This fanboi partisan bullshite is pointless and stupid. But this board would be dead without it, so. . .
