Xbox 360 Fan Boy
Less than 2 years ago I remember visiting Whineyho to check out his new Xbox 360. At the time I was fully against console gaming since I had a perfectly good (and free) computer to play games on, but I was impressed nonetheless. Eventually I decided to get one to use the built-in media center extender. Of course that meant I had to get one for my other TVs, which lead to the 3 Xbox empire. Suddenly surrounded by the consoles, my practicality was quickly defeated as the games and accessories for the system increased exponentially. I'm now a full-on raging fanboy ranting to everyone about why they need one immediately, especially with the new experience launching soon. My neighbors $400 PS3 which he uses exclusively as a Blu-Ray player, along with my brief 2 week ownership of a Wii have convinced me it's the best of the next gen consoles, and true to fanboy operating principles, I defend it like a rabid dog when someone suggests otherwise. Soulja Boy agrees with me and he's obviously got my back, so to PS3 and Wii fanboys, I say bring it.

Oddly enough I own both a Wii and PS3. I don't think i've played enough 360 to compare but I'm pretty happy with both the WII and the PS3. Also, I haven't had to buy any add-ons or anything like that for either the Wii or PS3. Eat it Fanboy!

Computer is still better, I Name noticed you didn't compare the 360 to a computer. Can't beat the Mouse/keyboard combo in FPS and RTS. However console games are great for racing that's about it.

I would concur for the most part there Stavos. Hands down I'd sooner play those with a keyboard and mouse. If only I wasn't so lazy.

I guess the best benefit of console gaming is when you buy a game you know it will look and run how the wanted it to. Not like PC hoping it will run. Or needing one serious rig to get the full look of a game "ala crysis"

Crysis looked and ran fine on my computer. Yet nothing like Crysis has been developed for PS3 or Xbox, guess you what to wait for PS4 or Xbox 3.0

And how much money did you sink into that GFX card and processor? I think it was more then an Xbox360.

I just got my 3rd 8800 gtx on ebay. By now I could have bought both a 360 and PS3, but they would have been way too ugly for the wife sitting on our multimedia cart. Meanwhile, my gaming PC sits inconspicuously in my office... and it's more compatible with pr0n.

keywords there: More+Compatible+porn. I think Duane just nailed this subject no pun intended.
