  Console allegancies and brand loyalty

  I recently had a red ring problem with my Xbox and sent it away to get fixed. I had some money and had been thinking about it for a while, so Idecided I would get myself a PS3. Got me thinking about all this loyalty nonsense.

  My brother once accused me of being brand loyal after I was bragging about how good my 360 was. I thought about it later and realised I was being loyal to the console, but he was much worse! I had a PS2, my first console since I had a Sega master system, then decided to buy a Xbox 360. 3 different console brands. My brother on the other hand has had a mega drive, aplaystation 1, 2 and 3 and a PSP, he did get a Wii at one point, but that was only for Xmas, and he always did have more money than sense.

  Aren't brothers crap!

  I have been finding it difficult with my PS3. I keep pointing out the bad and very rarely notice the good.My friday night tournament pals are all on the xbox and have been giving me pelters for switching.

  Having both consoles now, I intend to buy mainly for the Xbox and leave the playstation for exclusive games and dlc.

  This is mainly becauseI am loyal to the friends I play with and enjoy their company, and has nothing to do with Microsoft or Sony, who I believe show no loyalty to me.

  Thank whoever for BioShock

  Don't know what I'd have done with GTA being cancelled, then along comes BioShock. It looks great and the demo has only wetted my appetite for more. Anybody have anyrecommendations for older games not on my list. I particularily like co-op games like Gears and Crackdown, or scary games like Condemned.
