Although it might be best to stick to my roots
i might get a summer job this year... just get a 360... MAW, Will you ever forgive me???
We really don't care. I have a 360. It's not that we actually hate consoles or loathe them as much as we think PCs are superior. But the fact that you said, "just get a 360" conjures up the vibe of preferring consoles over PCs. Which I don't like very much.

PC really is the ultimate console
A console is a system dedicated to playing video games. This does not include PCs or PDAs. I used to make this error myself--platform is a much better term.

In the end, I won't blame you for choosing a 360 over a PC. But it's your loss. :P

Now, I wouldn't go as far as saying a console is a system dedicated to video games. Maybe back in the day a console was that, but no more. Nowadays you can use the wii to browse the net, or the PS3 for Folding@Home (makes your PS3 become a part of a network of systems used for calculations to help with a cure for cancer and other viruses.. pretty badass stuff). ;)

What it is.

^Also, the 360 is more of a Multi-media center because it has like everything, except for web browsing(but still, a comp is great for that). Although PC's are probably the king of multi-media because there's almost nothing you cant do with one.

True, but I doubt anybody would buy a Playstation 3 or a Wii just to browse the god damned Internet. Not to mention, a PS3 can't print out your essay topics. On a side note, it seems ironic that PCs, although not as dedicated to gaming as these consoles are, have become the superior gaming machine of choice. (At least, my choice. Heh.)

Replying to Eatmyfeet:

Heretic! Burn him!

JK. You can get a 360 if you want, it's not up to me. I'll just stick with my PC because, plain and simply, PC>Consoles.

Im exited(bad speller:D)about the keyboard and mouse combo. So bored with css.

I might get H2V, I dont know at this point. First off, I'd have to do some major, major system upgrades before I even get Vista. Even though I have a good graphics card with Shader 3.0 graphics and a dedicated sound card that supports EAX Surround sound, I would need hard drive space (and lots of it), and a simple power supply and motherboard/CPU upgrade. Because right now, my system lags on me and bottlenecks my system. So, if it does that for XP and Halo PC, how much more for Halo 2? I might just get Crysis, since that seems like a much more interesting game and the graphics are insanely good. Or until then, there are so much more games to get, and also I plan on getting an Xbox 360 with a Live subscription for Halo 3 and COD3. I might also kick it old school and hook up XBConnect with it and play some Halo xbox. Would be nice to have both =)

Actually if the snipers are set up so that across the entire map, you kill someone in your sights instantly, that will ruin it for me. Close up targets.. fine, but a gun being fired across a battlefield (especially attempting to hit a moving target) *NEEDS* to be targetted in front of the target because of bullet travel time.

It's like throwing a stone at a bike, you wouldn't throw it where the bike is, you throw where you beleive it will be when contact is made. Snipers are just the same over faster and longer distances.

I'm excited for the ability to play it with a mouse and keyboard, the map editor, Less lag if not no lag at all, and the new map that's coming with it.

I'm also exited becauseI just cheked the system specs, and the only thing that dosen't make the cut is my graphics card (I have an Nvidia Geforce 5200 and they sujest at least a Geforce 6000), so I won't have to do to much upgradeing.

You mean besides play catch right?
lol but yeah I love the PC because I can do voice chat, iming, watch a video, and join a game instantly. With virtually no lag. anyone else not like how long it takes teh 360 to switch between coice chat and joining games? We may have to install it but at least it loads faster.

Why am I excited for H2V..

Hmm.. Well first of all, I'm excited because there'll obviously be more players then HPC has at the moment, that is if H2V will turn out to be such a hit as it's X-Box version.. I mean, compare ~3500 players (PC + CE) to a minimum of ~18500 (Halo 2 X-box), I'll be keeping my fingers crossed though..

Second, I'd love to play those new multiplayer maps that are going to get shipped.. as well as the maps that are going to be remade, lets face it.. There are probably teams or individuals, who already have lets say Danger Canyon completely skinned with the textures from the X-box version and are just waiting for the tools to come so they can complete 'their' map. Really looking forward to that.

And of course racking up loads of kills and see or even hear newbs swear at you.. Absolutely awesome!

Cya around!

Halo 2 Vista will most likely be sweet. And we will have everyone on one server, not 60% in Normal Halo and 40% in CE. I am seriously looking forward to not have to manually download a map to join a server.
