Xbox 360 - No free gold, could use more exclusives that are non kinect right now.

Wii - battery's are fast empty, no HD.

PS3 - Loads everything slow, no cross voice chat,..........

Not enough games that I enjoy

Having to synch the trophies

Rediculously slow update and download times

But that's the problem you don't have a 360. And if you think that the 360 is garbage after getting The Withcer 2, FEZ, Trials, and AW AN. Then yes you are an immature fanboy. And you bought 30 games for PS3 when the only good games that have came out for it is Jounrey and TM? Not only are you a fanboy and a sony drone, you're also a liar.

randomguy15

Lol and you don't have a PS3 so get your fanboy hypocrite *ss out of here.

OT:


PC:

-DRM

-Require decent specs to enjoy games to the fullest. (which mean, more money investment)

PS3:

-PSN is slow, unstable & lack contents (compared to XBL)

-Mandatory install.

Xbox360:

-Don't like shooter/racing? You're screwed!

-Kinect

PSP 3000:

- Lack of unique games.

- Games.

DS& 3DS:

-Not so many games for my taste.

-Mario (don't really hate him, just a big MEH)

PS3: Mandatory installs Low resolution games (720p is still low res) PC: So many games go on sale that I don't have enough time to play them all Start up price is expensive ( games are cheaper so it kind of balances itself)

PS3

-short recharge cable. It honestly boggles my mind as to why the cable is so damn short. What were they thinking?

-separate user accounts for offline and online modes. This one really ticks me off. Why do I have to sign into my PS3 profile when I start up my console, then sign in again to PSN with my PSN ID? They should be one and the same like Xbox. Sony still has much to learn about user friendliness.

Xbox

-ads on dashboard

-exclusives aren't the best

PS3

- the controller, slippery triggers and over sensitive analogue sticks.

- interface feels slower than the 360.

360

- noise, even when installed

- disc change on some games

PC

- none

PS3 - Most of the exclusives are bad or not worth full price, the controller also feels very cheap.

360 - No exclusives, paying for online :|

Wii - Almost no good games, cheap hardware, motion controls.

PC - Random software problems.

PS3:

  1. Biggest issue is how inferior the materials for the controller feel when compared with the 360. Love the ergonomics and the rechargeable batteries included in each unit, but the lack of trigger buttons and the plastic are issues Sony should have addressed.
  2. Package installs for games and PSN maintenance. The installs take foooorreeeevvveeerrrrr and they're everywhere. Add to that the fact you can't always go play online and life starts to suck (but hey, it's free and when it's working, it works great).

Basinboy

QFT. Honestly, the PS3 controller is the best for me but you're completely right about the triggers and plastic. I really wish it was more sturdy and ya know, not be made of plastic. I am not fond of the X360 controller but atleast the build of it is quite nice.

Ontopic:

PS3:

  • Online interactions need to be streamlined more. Trophies don't sync automatically (and take forever when they do) and sometimes even the PSN store takes too long to load. (I would argue I have a good connection.)
  • The UI needs a slight modificiation (not overhaul, I still like it better than most.)

PC:

  • Seriously too many games.
  • Steam Sales; related to above.
  • Expensive buy-in fee.
  • Many developers have disregarded this system; where the hell is RDR?! (I would rather play @60 FPS/1080p than @30FPS/Sub-HD.)
  • Related to above but you get horrible ports to some games: GTA IV

PC

  1. Steam could be better
  2. While I actually enjoy trying to make really old games compatible with my current PC sometimes I do wish I could just enjoy them right away

PS3

  1. Slow updates, and installs
  2. Not many compelling games for a non-dudebro like me
  3. PS Move sucks tech-wise, but I like motion controls

Wii

  1. Wii Remote sucks tech-wise as well
  2. Haven't really enjoyed the "major" first party games like Mario, Zelda, or Metroid

Wii

-Crappy selection of games

-Horrible online

PS3

-No mouse and keyboard support

-No way to upgrade hardware

PC

-Steam sales/overall cheap games force me to buy too many games, created a massive backlog.

-Free to play games like Firefall, Planetside, and Tribes as well as others are distracting to all my pay games.

PC

-can be a pain to upgrade

-DRM ( especially gamers for windows live. And doubly especially for games that have gamers for indows live AND steam)

Wii

-no multiplats really at all

-quite a few of it's games could be summed up as good, but would have been so much better HD.

3DS

-poor build quality

-could have done with a larger higher resolution screen

PSP

-The loading times, even after large installs

-Comparative lack of interesting games

DS

-buttons wear out (at least on the lite they do)

-uses the wrong type of wifi encryption or whatever it is. So no wifi for me.

[QUOTE="DraugenCP"]

Wii:

- A severe lack of storage room

- Poor third party support

PC:

- Compared to other systems, a relatively high amount of random errors and issues you may encounter when installing/playing a game

- A relatively high amount of unoptimised games. Some games are even completely unplayable upon release.

MlauTheDaft

Name a few, I have'nt encountered any.

Saints Row 2 runs at double speed on several multicore processors. I had to resort to a third-party fix that took care of the problem.

According to the Gamespot review, Arma 2's campaign was so bugged that it was practically unbeatable upon release.

Skyrim also had a rough launch, with the game CTDing without an error message on some video cards. I don't even know if Bethesda officially took care of the issue (I read up on this as I was experiencing similar problems after one of the patches).

Maybe 'completely unplayable' is a bit exaggerated, but there are certainly games out there that are severely problematic with certain hardware set-ups for no clear reason.

Wii: So casual it's sickening. Also hate the fact it's been in the basement for 2 years.

PSPGo: Hate that it wasn't marketed properly.

PS3: Hate that it has so many great exclusives to play.

PC: Hate that it doesn't have many games I want.
