LET'S ARGUE ABOUT VIDEO GAMES

[noob3]

I still don't know why Chojin called my 360 exorbitantly priced PC when a PC that could run 360 games would cost 1000+ dollars!

Chojin, if you do get a 360, find a nice spot for it. If you keep it in a cool area, it won't overheat. It's when people have it right side up, on the carpet that it over heats. You have to let it breeeaaathe!

AND I GUESS SINCE WE SHOULD ALL ABANDON ARE I-MOCKER USERNAMES IN FAVOUR OF NUMBERS SO WE WON'T GET FLAMED OR STALKED, AM I RIGHT? HOLD ON, LET ME ENTER MY FRIEND'S CODES INDIVIDUALLY SO I CAN TALK TO THEM ABOUT HOW AWESOME THE 360 IS!

[Atari Dragon]

I Have both consoles and i can asure you that both wii and 360 both are awesome.

[Zomboid]

I also have both and can assure you that only the 360 is awesome.

I bet you are sad about that.

[noob3]

Don't let me fool you, guys. I WILL be purchasing a Wii when SSBB comes out. And then, MAYBE, I will pick up Paper Mario & Pokemon Battle Revolutions! Also, Umbrella Chronicles looks good.

Pretty much it will be a glorified Cubivore/RE1 Remake/RE0 player that also plays SSBB.

Hurray!

But for now I'll play FUN GAMES like GEARS OF WAR & DEADRISING THX BYE

[Atari Dragon]

Sniperwuld delivered a zing!

[RaNkeri]

You're all nothing but faggy fan boys

[Atari Dragon]

you are nothing but an ass

[ArrowX]

I'm gonna go enjoy playing with my friends without the need for a different million number long passcode for each one of my games.

[Fathom Zero]

I just realized something profound and it's probably been circulating in my head for a while.

How can we even begin to compare Nintendo's Wii to the 360 and PS3?

They're fundamentally different on all levels. They're marketed to a different, (and wider), audience. The control schemes are vastly different. In terms of horsepower, they are very very very different.

It's almost as if they were from different generations of consoles.

They are incomparable on those grounds. They are two extremely different gaming experiences and, as I said before, it's like comparing apples to oranges.

[Chojin]

Jesus avatar guy, the friend code system doesn't prevent you from playing with people outside your group of friends. All it does is let you set up matches specifically with people whose friend codes you've saved - otherwise, you can still set up matches with randomly-picked strangers.

I don't like the friend code system or the way that Nintendo's handled online play, but I take issue with the statement that XBox live is the 'standard' - if it's the only service that offers online play as well as it does, doesn't that make it 'well above standard'? Compared to PSN, Steam, et al, I'd say that Nintendo's online strategy is 'slightly below standard'.

[Chojin]

Also noob, I see the Wii being exactly what the PS2 was last generation - the primary system for game releases, the new home of shovelware, and the console of choice for any company that develops games without million-dollar budgets.

I plan to buy a PS2 next week

[GADZOOKS]

I had 1000 dollars and after reading this thread I am going to use it to buy a prostitute. I'm sitting this "generation" out and getting my dick sucked.

[Guitar Woman]

Seriously

Next thing I know you faggots will start worshipping FF9 and Tales of Symphonia as HOLY DISCS OF PERFECTION that can never be challenged ever and at the same time dismiss Chrono Cross and Shadow of the Colossus as second rate crap that was garbage when it was new. What is wrong with you people

The Wii uses 22W of electricity at peak usage times. It doesn't get as hot as other systems. Or very many other things.

I hate to tell you this, but shit breaks.

It happens.

I don't really know how to respond to this. If you think it's great that your systems blow up all the time, then more power to you? Why should other people accept that?

GUESS WHAT, DUMB FUCK. ELECTRONICS TYPICALLY GENERATE HEAT.

YOU MAKE A VALUABLE POINT HERE. FIRE ALSO PRODUCES HEAT, THEREFORE FIRE IS AN ACCEPTABLE MEANS OF POWERING A GAME CONSOLE. ICE IS ALSO COLD AND WATER IS SOOTHING, THEREFORE EVERYONE WILL LIVE IN CHILLED AQUARIUMS IN THE FUTURE.

have fun playing mario party 8, a gamecube game & the worst MK of all time

...and super paper mario, and mario strikers charged, and wii sports, and metroid prime 3, and mario galaxy, and super smash bros, and mario kart, all by this January. And that's only the first-party releases.

Who's saying mine blew up? Nothing is wrong with it yet.

It ate two discs, but it was my brothers' fault. They threw a tantrum the day we got it and started kicking it while it is running. I don't think anyone would put any console in a situation like that where it has to have kick prevention.

We will see which of our consoles breaks down first. Your Wii or my 360.

[Chojin]

I played a little ff9 and got bored :< and I've never played tales of symphonia but it sounds like a furry adventure ;<

[Guitar Woman]

Chrono Cross has a furry as the bad guy, except he doesn't deserve to die in a fire because he is a body-stealing time-devouring badass.

[Chojin]

I hated chrono cross because it was boring as all hell and kills off all of the likeable characters from the last game for ultimately no reason.

Mabye, but it's still better than pretty much every other 3D JRPG ever

[RaNkeri]

I personally didn't really hate Chrono Cross. It's still a great rpg, although it surely was a let down when compared to Chrono Trigger. :/
