  Xbox360 = epic fail

  The Xbox360 = Epic fail (1st technology, 2nd, hardware, And now games.)

  Why I do I think so? Because of the recent game releases. The greatest thing the 360 released was Halo 3 ODST.(Which is good but not great.) PS3 on the other hand puts out greatness this year and the nest year to follow. 1st we have Killzone2 which runs a train on anything Halo.(From Halo 2 - Halo3 ODST) Both in the graphics dept and Gameplay dept. KZ2 shooting and story is both more convincing and more fulfilling Than anything bungie has ever come up with as far as the Halo universe is concerned.(you got to thank M$ for messing up the Halo series it could have been alot better of a game)Also we have Infamous Which sold 568,000 copies less than prototype on both consoles.((look at Videogame chartz.com.) We got the surprise hit Uncharted 1(2,600,000 +) Now Uncharted 2 which is already at 1 million. (Both uncharted games shhh on Gears of War) And the PS3 itself just moved an additional 440,000units last week in America. Because Uncharted 2 is such an epic game!)We got Demon Souls (no RPG out there on the 360like it), We got Heavy Rain coming, We got gran tourism 5 (Which is going to completely destroy Forza 3{and it's 2 or 3 discs}in both world wide sales and game play) PS3 is that console the Xbox 360 fails once again, and it's not in Hardware this time it's in software. All these so called huge 360 sales are mostly in the US nobody outside the US cares about the 360anymore. M$ might as release another 360 like they plan too. But that won't matter like everyone is this business knows it's about the games, PS3 has them now and they are better games. Sales are really not that important, to the regular consumer(as I)the only reason why I post some of the PS3's sales is because that's all you Xbots throw in PS3 fans faces every chance you get. But in the end PS3 and it's games will surpass the 360's because Many more people see the true value of the PS3's high QUALITY games.

  Years ago I was a 360 fanboy,But there is no way on god's green earth will I continue support such a broken down, crap game plauged console. Went through 3 of those junk boxes and mean while thePS3 games got more plentifully and better. I have a sega saturn, a Dreamcast, and an NES that still works my PS1 just died a year ago. My 360 doesn't exist anymore. note to M$. Next gen make sure you get real electronic gurus to design your next console, Thank you.

  Marvel R. I .P.

  A NEW DAY OF INFAMY!

  MARVEL COMICS HAS JUST PASSED WAY

  Aug 31, 2009 will mark the day that Marvel comics died. Why do I say this? Because everybody knows from this point forward Marvel it's story lines and characters are going to suck. I can just hear the story lines now Xmen and the desires of Fantasia. LOL!! I can just imagine how many sparkles Wolverine's weapon X is going to produce. Or how many appearances Mikey mouse is going to make in the Xfactor series or Hulk's new romance with Hannah Montana. etc That being said I would just like to thank Marvel comics for giving so many great years of entertainment from when I was a child until now. Thank you for creating such rich Characters with great story lines. Also thank you for making sure that Hollywood didn't screw up some of your latest movies. You will be missed. Once the Xmen and Spiderman, Hulk and the others travel to Cinderella's castle to stop magneto and Maleficent from destroying King Stephan's minion.Marvel R.I. P. You were great. It's been nice knowing you.

  Xbox 360 = trash

  Factual evidence, that the 360 is JUNK. 54.2% failure rate. You better believe it people. I think the numbers are higher than that. That being said, I have personal experience with more than one 360 failing with in the last 2 years. My launch console lasted 14 months then I got the RROD.(after countless weeks of defending that piece of trash) M$ fixed it of($60) because I brought the "warranty" good for 3 years. Okay so I get the dang console back, the fan starts making funny noises then a month after that it RRODs on me again! I call up M$ they fix or replace it again, get it back. (They send me my console and a brand new console by mistake) I call M$ and tell them they sent me 2 consoles they said that I could keep the second console. So I did as a "spare" So July of 2007, my 3rd 360 RROD! In the meantime I had sold the "brand new console" to my cousin. I call up M$ by then the 3 red lights had been covered, so they gave me another console. By then I had had enough. I sold it to gamestop got $100 in cash for it.(At that time GST took $140 for them) I went out took my family out to dinner and had a blast.(Thanks M$!) Anyways the brand new console I had sold my cousin had died also. He had to send that nonsense back to M$ twice! and that was last year. LOL!!! 360 is the worst product ever. And we all know that it's M$'s deep pockets that's kept it from being taken off the market as it should be. These experiences are just a small fraction of my knowledge of the 360's faulty hardware. EVERYONE I KNOW HAS HAD TO GO THROUGH AT LEAST 2 OF THEM!!! That is UNACCEPTABLE!!! And anyone with common sense should not stand for it. (it's 2009 and this crap should not still be happening.

  The Tale of the tape.

  Xbox360= no standard HDD(detachable HDDs don't count because you need them considering all the "services" they offer you.
  

  $100 for Wi-Fi

  $50 for XBL

  No HD player

  Failed HD player add on

  Too many add ons period

  Games aren't true HD they're only "up scaled to 1080p", most are native 640p(although the game cases says

  480p, 720p, 1080i, 1080p)
  

  no motion sensing controllers

  No built-in battery controllers

  higher failure rate still(as of 2009)

  Not as many exclusive games(Xbox 360 has 9 this year the PS3 has 33 and the Wii has 56)

  poor design

  The list could go on but all these "facts" are evidence that the xbox360 is and was a wasted investment. I will say this though the xbox 360 has better games than the Wii, but... You can't enjoy them if you console fails you every chance it gets.

  ps This blog post was brought to you by "Jasper" making all things new. thank you.
