  The Console Wars.

  The console wars fail. They fail to an epic proportion previously thought impossible. Xbots and PissHead 3's both think their console is superior, when in fact, neither is. Why? They are the same thing, with only slight alterations. So the controller is shaped a little bit diffently, so the PS3 has 3 axis of usage, while they 360 just has 2... I have yet to see a game use that last axis well.

  It is not about the console, especially since they are almost exctly the same. The war should be about the games. Since neither console has the undoubted edge in power, or superior controls, the games is where it should be decided. If you go for price, you don't deserve to call yourself a gamer (unless you just flat out can't afford a PS3). For every great game the Xbox 360 has, the PS3has approximately... 1/2 of a great game. Mass Effect and Halo 3 (which isn't actually that great. Its nothing more thana rehash of 32 shooters already done 32 times)come out for 360, the PS3 gets Resistance: Fall of Man. Resistance: Fall of Man is undoubtedly superior to Halo 3 in every aspect, except hype and fanboys. Mass effect, however, is a different story.

  So the next time I hear someone say "Xbox is better than PS3," I will just laugh in their face. It may have better games, but the console itself is nearly the same.

  Then, we have the PC. A pc can do everyting a console can do, and do it better (we can use Wii controllers, Xbox controllers, AND specifically designed (Logitech) PS3 controllers. We could also mod gamecube controllers, but nobody wants one...). But the PC wars is a different story, for a different blog.
