Yeah now-a-days thats the only real reason i havn't picked up a PS3. At first it's because it's library was sort of...dire compared to the xbox's, but now it's fairly matched. Except more people still have Xboxs, and in the rare case someone has a PS3 it's pretty much soley for pro evo, in which case we just sit on the one console.

edit, also repping for the 'i had a job when i was 13 and could afford £400 a month nevermind £40 a year' crowd

wat. The only place where the 360 is massively outselling the PS3 is America. And who wants to play with americans anyway, ur ping will just be shit.

Less people, no dedicated servers so potentially laggy, have to use controller....

How is using a jobstick toggle button anywheres near as accurate as a mouse
It's not anywhere near as accurate as a mouse. And whoever tells you otherwise has never gamed on a PC.

Can a 360 play split screen but on two different tv's
I don't believe so, but you can link two xbox's and two tv's together.

Convince me why i should get one or give reasons why i should not.
If you have a gaming PC already then I see no reason to buy a console. There's nothing it can do that PC's can't, and gaming is better on PC's.

i agree with all but the last bit.... i still like getting some games on the console, driving, fighting, and adventure style games and such


and where do you live in maine i want to rape you in your sleep i'm curious

Multiplayer, on the whole, is pretty terrible. It's ok for some games. Only a few though.

Jobsticks are very limiting. It always feels like my guy has tunnel vision. It feels very claustrophobic and uncomfortable. But it's fairly easy to shoot people with.

The only online console game I didn't get sick of within about 10 minutes was Battlefield: Bad Company. It has dedicated servers too.

Split screen is dependant on game. But yes its possible with some.

As for chipping your console. It leads to a banned-from-Live Xbox i'm afraid.

Other CON: You need to pay an annual fee of $50.00 to play online (xbox live), where as, a computer or PS3 it is free. I pray computer companies do not start doing the "pay to play" thing.

Mek fuck off and die you xbox tard.

Answer a few of these please:

I own a 360, ps3, and PC. By far, I use my PC the most, then the ps3 (mostly to play blu-ray movies) , then the box.

How is multiplayer compared to PC

I have no idea. I have never once bothered to pay for XBL. Also, for some mysterious reason, I cannot even connect to XBL silver for like 3 months now. Seeing as how I play online on PC every day, I would say it sucks by comparison.

It sucks compared to a mouse. Plain and simple.

Name some awesome games and hows the multiplayer for them

GTAIV, but you can get that on PC nowadays... I also liked ODST, but I only play the multiplayer split-screen for reasons mentioned above. It's pretty fun. Resident Evil 5 coop, also available on PC... but still pretty fun.

Not that I know of.

Convince me why i should get one or give reasons why i should not.

Get one if you really want to. Most of the best games are also available on PC, however, and if you already have a good PC, it's superior in every single way.
I'd say, if there are any 360 exclusive games that you MUST play, it's not a bad buy. But don't buy the 360 simply to have one.

How is multiplayer compared to PC: It's tough, But I love both
How is using a jobstick toggle button anywheres near as accurate as a mouse: Not as accurate, But it's fun to use
Name some awesome games and hows the multiplayer for them: MW2 I love it
Can a 360 play split screen but on two different tv's: Only if 2 xbox's are linked together.

It's up to you.

I has a sexbox
I dont know anybody who has a PS3, so they are pointless. For me, anyway.

Depends - competitive doesnt really exist, however, for casual, it is great fun. I find I get a LOT less problems from kiddies who dont know how to play, hackusations, etc. (no keyboards!)
Lack of dedicated servers hits home hard in some matches if the host has a poor connection - although I rarely get this, some people make out that it is the norm

Mitch wrote:

Its nowhere near as accurate, however, for most things on console games, its not required to be as accurate. Sniping is either a love or hate. You get used to it.

GEARS OF WAR. 1 & 2. Eats shitty Fail of Duty for breakfast on every available front.
Forza3 is also fantastic.

Dont know - rarely play split-screen. Just play with friends via XBL.

Pro's:
Games are designed for the console's hardware, not just the lower end of the market as with (most) PC games (take BF2, for example).
Gears of War.
Great for casual gaming.

Con's:
I find games last less time.
Strategy games are harder to play (i.e. CnC3/RA3, etc) from a lack of buttons.
Lack of dedicated servers.
Lack of a competitive scene.

Ok, I apologise, the PC genre has hundreds of thousands of different dark fantasy RPG's and RTS games and all of that. And games from 1981 which the Xbox 360 can't play. PC's can play games from the 50's whereas the 360 can't, you win, Miggle

When you talk about the latest games. A console is much less of a hassle than a PC. And a much bigger variety. I'm not here to argue with people who can't see things objectively and live by their stupid fanboy ideals, I lost most respect for this forum in terms of playing games when fucking all of you raged about games like MW2 and L4D2 yet still went and bought it anyway. You guys just chat shit but don't exactly follow up on anything
