Do I get the feeling of 360 owners being bitter?

Im seeing alot of hostility between the PS3 and 360 owners. Here lately the 360 guys are a bit more aggressive. Discuss.


BTW-Im a PS3 guy but could care less what anyone has as long as they like it. I just think its taken a bit too far sometimes. Who gives a shite who has what IMO.

It all stems from everyone's personal pride and unwillingness to accept the possibility of something else out there being better. Somewhat like ethnocentrism.

BTW-I'm a 360 user, and would never use a piece of shite product from sony.

thats hilarious.. I have a PS2 and had a XBOX 360 and the PS1 and the entire Nintendo lineup before that. I really liked the XBOX 360. I REALLY didnt like the fact that they didnt have a HDMI port or wireless networking. (Ok now they have HDMI but its too late) I also REALLY didnt like that it was always breaking. For the most part of every system I have owned qualitywise 360 was the biggest piece of shite especially for the price. Im going to get a PS3 soon to replace it but GF wants a Wii. On a game standpoint they seem identical. XBOX had a good online system but I didnt like paying for it. For the most part on a pure CPU standpoint and based on possibilities its hard to argue that a 360 is inferior to a PS3. Its just is. Havent seen a supercomputer made of Xbox 360s yet. Its just offers more. I would have gotten it instead of the 360 if it were not so damn expensive when first released.

Disclaimer:(Pakowitz and other 360 owners, the following is my person opinion, so there's no need to start a mini console war in this thread. Please feel free to post your personal opinions on both consoles and why you choose the 360)

I personally could care less who has what. I know PS3 owners, and I know 360 owners. I also know people who have both.
I personally choose the PS3 because it has my personal choice of favorite games, whether it's exclusive or not. I like the way the controller feels, and it's an all around a more reliable product. I don't have to hold my breath anytime I sit down and turn on the machine to play a game. I don't have to have customer service on speed dial. Those are the main reasons I choose a PS3.
The reasons why I have no interest in the 360 are easy, horrible controls(my personal preference), reminds me of a Sega Saturn controller. Too Bulky!
There's not one exclusive game for the 360 that makes me say "Damn, I wish that was on the PS3". They almost came close with Gears of War because I love 3rd person shooters, but I couldn't get pass the small head, super large body build of the character. Reminds me of buzz lightyear from Toy Story.
Also the 360 just looks and feels cheap. Which it probably is concidering it's poorly put together as evident by the recall that took place after launch, and then the many RROD you see going around like a disease. Plus Microsofts poor judgement of lack of HDMI in their first year shows that they don't know what the hell they are doing.

The only reason I choose to post a defense sometimes is because the PS3 took alot of heat when it was launched from 360 fanboys that overran this board.

Anyone who gets angry over someone's personal preference is retarded.

Let people play what they want.

I he an xbox 360 and my roommate has a PS3 so it's a the best of both worlds, but I enjoy Xbox 360 soooo much more. I feel they have better games and the online play is superior. People want to bitch about paying 5 bucks a month but hey you get your money's worth so t's no big deal. Personally if my xbox were to break i'd go out and have it repaired before i'd even think of buying a PS3. I just like it a lot more and i've been sold on the series they have: gears of war, mass effect, and various others.

For the record, I have both a PS3 and a 360.

That being said, shut the frick up.

Just because you own a PS3 doesn't mean the 360 is crap. And if you judge the quality of a game based on character models, you're an idiot anyway.

Woah there, internet bad arse alert! Don't blow a fuse just because you don't like my opinion. Quit being an E-badass and come make me shut up kiddo!
BTW, my opinion doesn't make the 360 crap, Microsoft makes the 360 crap. They've been making it crap since it came out. Get over it. Also, don't use the "I own a PS3 and 360" bullshite as a tool to try and validate your statement. This thread was started because of bitter 360 fans, and you are obviously one of them!

Actually you seem to be the one trying to validate the fact that you feel somehow personally victimized by the PS3's failure to live up to its initial hype. I do own both, and while both are quality pieces of equipment from a hardware standpoint, any true gamer will agree that the software on the 360 is superior.

You show your utter lack of what makes a quality game anyway when you call GOW a crappy game because the character's heads are "too small."

software is totally based on personal opinion. Bashing someone's opinion makes you look like an idiot. Now do we want to discuss hardware? The PS3 hardware is built to withstand the biggest gamers, and well the 360 is laughable! You can't even turn on the system with confidence that it's actually going to come on. It's no wonder that when there is a RROD thread posted that someone is always has the 360 customer service number memorized. You guys actually have to use it.
