Mav Posted May 20, 2005 Share Posted May 20, 2005 Right now I'm really looking forward to the PS3. I've never been a big XBox fan, in fact I've only played two games on the XBox, Halo and Halo 2, but I guess I'm just a PlayStation fanboy... oh well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FiEND_138 Posted May 20, 2005 Share Posted May 20, 2005 Option 4. Though I may pick one of them up a few years down the road after price drops, better game library, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derc Posted May 20, 2005 Share Posted May 20, 2005 Bah. But they're all so cool... That's a hard question. Xbox 360 has Oblivion and Halo 3, Revolution has super backwards compatability... Meh, I just chose PS3. MGS4 sold me. And as a console gamer, I know that the PS3 will be the strongest and best overall in the long run... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emperor Devon Posted May 20, 2005 Share Posted May 20, 2005 I like my PC batter. However, I think I'll sell my Xbox, and with a little extra money, I'll get the new Xbox. I heard that you can still play Xbox games on them, and by selling my Xbox, I wouldn't be losing much cash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though not to bash the consoles, if I had to choose... the specs on the PS3 looks pretty damn sweet.. I'd fork over the cash for that one given the option Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colma Adawin Posted May 20, 2005 Share Posted May 20, 2005 Originally posted by ChAiNz.2da Same here Considering both my PC & Mac are already more powerful than what's to come in the new consoles... Option 4 - PC / Mac well, i USED to think Consoles were better than PC's but that was before the age of 5 I Love my PC, its high specs, we've been through thick and.... well thick really, whenever my computer really messed up i formatted it thats wats better than Consoles: PC's are a hell of a lot easier to fix and if they are irepairable, they dont cost that much. Consoles, they get damaged you have to send them off to som repair ppl to fix, coz if you break the void sticker your fluffed for trying to sell it. PC's All the Way! FOREVER! ....

T7nowhere Posted May 20, 2005 Share Posted May 20, 2005 PC all the way, the last console I had was SNES. But the one thing Consoles do well are sports games, I have never played a decent PC sports game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oddly enough half of my games on my consoles are sports games, the rest is a combination of shooters and RPG's... I still have my SNES, and fire it up every so often for Chrono Trigger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Lion54 Posted May 20, 2005 Share Posted May 20, 2005 I voted PC as well. I'll buy the Revolution when the price drops, though. Im a hugh fan of Zelda. Other than that, I don't really play consoles too often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Khasei Posted May 21, 2005 Share Posted May 21, 2005 PC. I will admit that I have considered getting a console for the boxing game, but changed my mind in the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tdcquicksilver5 Posted May 21, 2005 Share Posted May 21, 2005 sorry ...i was just wondering if his sys specs were really better than the next gen consoles,or if hes exagerating.(if his are better,then im buying one like his) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With ChAiNz I would not think he is exagerating... he does a lot of high-end graphics/media work, if I'm not mistaken. EDIT: Also the only reason I said something is bacause I have seen Console vs. PC wars start quite innocent like with your original post and just turn real ugly real fast!

True that. Anyway, I vote PC. I'm a strict pc-gamer. And I'm pissed off at Jade Empire being X-Box only. I'm still waiting for the news of the imminent release on pc. My hopes were for E3, but it seems rather quiet... DAMN! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, alot of times it means I work at home as well as 'on site'... so JTV compensates me for that (I can't complain.. hehehe)... For curiosity's sake, here's my specs... although I won't lie.. the MAC is on order, I don't have it yet (as I'm updating from my old MAC system)... though the only main change is the processor speed... My Specs: My Mac Dual 2.7GHz PowerPC G5 8GB DDR400 SDRAM (PC3200) 2x400GB Serial ATA - 7200rpm NVIDIA GeForce 6800 Ultra DDL w/256MB GDDR3 SDRAM Bluetooth Module + AirPort Extreme Card 16x SuperDrive double-layer (DVD+R DL, DVD(+-)RW, CD-RW) PCI-X Gigabit Ethernet Card Fibre Channel PCI-X Card My Main PC Dual AMD Opteron 252 2.6 GHz 64-Bit 4GB Corsair XMS Dual Channel DDR SDRAM (up to 550MHz) 2x400GB Serial ATA - 7200rpm Dual NVIDIA GeForce 6800 Ultra PCI Express 512MB DDR3 (SLI) M-Audio FireWire 410 4-In/10-Out External FireWire Recording Interface NEC ND-3520 16x Dual Layer DVD(+-)R/W Drive Creative GigaWorks THX S750 - 7.1 700-Watt Speakers Yeah, overkill... but oddly enough working in media.. the system(s) still crash from time to time (and yes, MACs DO crash.. hehehe)... But as RedHawke said, I don't want a console war.. and quite frankly the new consoles coming are nothing to be laughed at... I still stand by my statement that the PS3 looks pretty damn sweet All those specs help me make stuff like THIS (apx 8mb) My latest promo spot Sorry for the "off-topic" everyone, just wanted to let Tdc know that we're kewl and I agree montnoir I was hoping for a PC release for Jade Empire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Posted May 21, 2005 Share Posted May 21, 2005 XBox 360 looks awesome. I have not seen PS3 or nintendo, but some of the things xbox will be able to do will be so different than anything we have right now. And, I believe XBox comes out first. Hopefully microsoft doesnt pull a TSL and not finish the system like obsidian didnt finish the game... XBOX rules! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
