Subject: I'm undecided on Next Gen consoles.

"You are the last of your kind: bred for combat, built for war. You're the master of any weapon, pilot of any vehicle, and fear no enemy"

Looking back, in retrospect, I should have picked a PS3. More exclusives, quieter, and it's FREE! The only plus about Xbox is the controller, and Halo 3. And as far as I'm concerned, graphics are better as well, but that's negligible.

halp me. halp me plz.

Yeah like it isn't a hefty investment and you won't have to upgrade it like every 2-3 years.

You can't take a PC to your friends house nor do most people play on PC's.

We really don't know anything about the new consoles. My best advice is to just wait until the contenders (Sony, Micrsoft, and Nintendo) release information and weigh out the pros and cons.

The Internet is an empowerment tool that's agnostic; it doesn't care about race, gender, or age.

Glorious Xbox master race.

Well Nintendo already released theirs and we all know how THAT turned out.

You have to buy a whole new console every 6-7 years. New consoles cost $600+
PC parts cost ~$100 and don't need to be updated often.

Disregard Females, acquire currency.

I'm still going to get the new Xbox that comes out. I'm a galo fanboy.

6-7 years is a damn good run not as good with TV's lasting 10-20 but clearly it is getting there.

I am just now moving to the PC era for MMORPGs and building a PC from the ground up costs just as much (if not a little more) than buying a new console. The fact you even have to upgrade can be seen as a drawback because the average kid isn't going to be able to upgrade all the time. With a console you get everything at once and a warranty.



You move your entire computer over? wow.



Like i said i am probably going to start playing on PC this summer and it is good. but i hate how people act like it has no drawbacks.

They're probably going to shut off the xbox 360 live servers when the new xbox comes out, which I'm absolutely pissed about.

Numba one Italian on da flud.

meh, you're totally wrong. I have both Ps3 and Xbox360, the Ps3 has a free online service, but it sucks, and the loading times are tremendously long.

Actually PS3 controllers are better as well. Do what I do; have both!

It does have it's drawbacks, but they're few and far between.

Here in Australia consoles and accessories are incredibly expensive.

A copy of Black Ops 2 and 12 months of XBL cost my brother $160
It cost me $60.

PC gaming is just more cost-effective her in Aus.
I can understand the situation being different in other countries.

Tried that.

None of my friends play PC, and I was lied about the community being more laid back, they're just as -blam!--ish on there as on Xbox or PS3.

I've got to say, over the past few weeks I haven't switched on my Xbox once, not even to redeem my new XBL subscription, because I finally started gaming on my PC. Modding Elder Scrolls Games, NS2, Planetside 2, Dawn of War and Killing Floor are the major offenders, with CSS, GMod and ZPS up there.
I have to say, I was blown away by how different, and once I'd sorted out control scheme, how much more advanced it was.
The fact that most of my friends are converting helps, I guess, but I just feel that console gaming is slipping away these days, there's no indie presence, you've all seen how basic Minecraft is on the 360 compared to the PC, and it just gets worse. I only really play video games socially, but when I've got exactly the same social circle, if not bigger now on PC than I do on Xbox live, its just turning me further away.

Unless the next gen consoles are capable of crazy amounts more, offer stupid amounts more than current gen high end PCs and competitively priced, I can't see myself going back.
Edit: Or if really good console exclusives come back in town. I'm not gonna lie, after two months of Halo 4, I'm angry and fed up of it. I did praise it in the first few weeks, but after glaring problems and balancing issues rooted themselves in, I just can't bring myself to go back. Halo 5 had better fix everything or I'll be a sad old panda.

I'm personally going to be getting a Ps4, unless Sony -blam!-s something up big time with it, which is unlikely.

I'm also wanting to grab a WiiU and get a decent-good gaming pc.

I see zero reason to own a 360, and/or whatever the next Xbox will be.

Steam sales. Big savings over time.

no its legit, i used coordinates, set weapon timers the works.

You know i really hate this "PS3 is better because of exclusives" crap.

Do you know why the Xbox does not need exclusives? Because it doesn't need any. Exclusives are a sales ploy to get consumers to purchase their consoles over another in the competitive video game industry. Xbox has so much user base now and makes so much money it does not need them anymore.

I can honestly say that I may not be investing in any next-gen console. I already have a fairly decent PC. And in the past couple years I've almost abandoned my 360. My friends seem to have as well. I bought some Live subscription to play online every so often and watch Netflix. But no new games are really getting my attention. Maybe Halo 4. That's it.

I mean, when you already have a PC that does what the 360 does, and then some, what's the point. Only real benefit I see is that a controller is far more comfortable to relax with.
