Ah, I see...it's fine to choose for yourself, just don't do it in SW because we need a rule to tell you the PC won.

We wouldn't need a rule if you weren't so blind and could admit the PC is the winner.

Exactly! Hermits don't want discusion on anything. they just want to be crowned the winner. Since that hasn't happened, they are trying to force a rule which in effect declares them the winner. But to do that they have ti dismiss sales because using that makes it really hard to PROVE PC wins. So the only option for hermits that don't want discussion on the PC winning is # of AA games. How about Sales of games? Or Sales of AAA games? PC would probably win that as well, but to me it makes a lot more sense than just saying # AAA games. If a game is AAA and no one plays it...should it count? You know like if a tree falls in a forest does it still make a sound? Or better yet, why does it matter if the tree fell if no one heard it?

For a second I thought the Ps3 was the top next gen system with how you laid it out :lol:

Aww the 360 only outsold the Ps3 2;1 in August :(

Nonam3gamer

So much for the PS3 price cut. I think we can declare PS3 will not win this war.

You said "Good as well as you should" (in regards to determining which system WINS). but then you said "You think somebody can't recognize a winner yet still like something else better?" in response to you voting for Games (option 1) and not option 3.

If you truly believed what you said "Good as well as you should"...you would have voted for #3.

CaseyWegner

no. i'd prefer structure to anarchy.

So why did you agree with that lad from before?

because he said he wanted to decide for himself what he thinks is the winner.

[QUOTE="smokeydabear076"]I guess it is safe to declare the PC the winner of System Wars no matter what option is chosen.smokeydabear076

except option 3

Which will probably win because it is the only way console fans can keep up in System Wars.

Which is the only way to keep SW a decent place to discuss systems. Or drop PC out. I swear it's like the hermits just want to take a dump on this whole forum and ruin it for everyone.

So basically it comes down to how many fanboys are logged in that particular moment to defend their console of choice.DireToad

How you came to that conclusion, I'll never know.

Pretty sure everyone last gen said PS2 won the consoles.




No. You always get those "but the GC had GOTYs" people.

Well that is a very valid discussion point. If a system only has a handful of games but they are clearly the best games around...that does leave you with a strong argument to say it was the best. Many would rather play a few truly outstanding games instead of a bunch of good games.

So if a system has the best game ever on earth. Everyone buys it and it's pretty much the only thing they play. Since most the planet bought it and only played this one game...which system wins? The system that sold 1million units but has 3 AAA games or the system that sold 1 Billion units and only one game?

Let me add another twist to this. What if a system sells 2 million units and has 50 AA games but no AAA games.Now which system wins.

If you use use option 1...then it's either the system with 3 AAA games or the system with 50 AA games.
If you use option 2...then the system that everyone is playing is the winner with the 1 AAA game.

If you use option 3, it's all up for discussion.

[QUOTE="mikasa"][QUOTE="Hexagon_777"][QUOTE="mikasa"][QUOTE="CaseyWegner"]

and to that i said "good. as well you should."

CaseyWegner

Then what does this mean
"you think somebody can't recognize a winner yet still like something else better?"

Casey cleverly avoided that.

Yep. I've noticed the hermits have been falling apart on logic lately. vandalvideo has had the most meltdown lately, but Casey's logic is really falling apart as of late.

where has my logic fallen apart?

I think that's a question you have to ask yourself as a gamer.

I'd agree. But (if I understand his argument) casey says the system with 3 AAA games on it. Even if all three of those games were able to be beaten with rental time period. And the system that sold 1000 times more and only sold 1 game but everyone played it all the time would be at best 2nd place.



Yes but now you're adding subtle differences here and there to make one option look better than the other.

Correct. Just like the original vote on this that got this started. It was very one-sided. But when faced with other sides of the coin it doesn't look so clear now does it?
