MS should forget about the Xbox 360 and just support PC.

Xbox is basically a cheap watered down PC that only offers mediocre online shooters.

Xbox is a TOY compared to a PC.

Xbox 360 is starting to die down in sales and its only a matter of time until it falls to last place where it belongs

MS failed to try to make a CHEAP PC (X360)

PC has the most AAA games, Dedicated servers, FREE online that is much better than the LIVE service.

For the lemmings that don't know this...Halo was orginally supposed to be a PC game but it wouldnt have made it anywhere on PC, since the PC has higher standards than the Xbox 360 and Halo which is the most overrated game of all time......

http://www.411mania.com/games/columns/63843

1-) The Halo Franchise (X-Box/X-Box 360) As is the case with Final Fantasy VII, allow me to denote that I both own Halo 3and like Halo 3. I bought the game since pretty much every 360 owner I know wanted it, and I have to be honest...I like to LAN. So, since everyone is going to be LANing it up anyways, I figured I might as well buy it. It's fun, but man, this is such a run of the mill first person shooter. I honestly think if the games included inside the Orange Box got more publicity, the Orange Box would be just as popular as Halo. At least the games in the Orange Box have some sort of innovation and aren't so freaking generic. Halo is my definition of a casual gamer's game. It's good for the industry in that people are buying videogames, but I think that most competent game developers could probably recreate Halo. Nothing, and I mean nothing, separates it from your run of the mill FPS. The only difference I see is publicity, so Halo gets more credit than it rightfully deserves. Fun game? Sure. If fans of Halo tried other first person shooters though, I'm sure they would see the franchise is lacking in comparison to other shooting franchises. Halo 1's single player was the worst piece of garbage I have ever played in my life. Halo 2's was slightly better, and Halo 3's was competent, so at least the series is evolving. Don't tell me that the multiplayer is fun. No **** it's fun. Try to get a group of people together to play a first person shooter and NOT having fun. It's hard. Here's what Halo is: An average game that's easily accessible to casual gamers. Nothing more, nothing less.

Halo - Yep. I think this covers

Sorry but many million love their 360 like me and dont care for PC gaming either even... so nice try.

And and btw ur pic isnt as funny as that bet u made to leave GS if Halo 3 got AAA here but then u refused to confirm ur bet and backed out and gave the silent treatment acting like u never gave the bet so u wouldnt get owned. Now THAT is funny.

I love it how people cant accept a system cause they hate it so much. People like it, get over it or join Jack Thompson and try to get rid of the 360

Don't Worry... Microsoft will kill the 360 of in another year... Kind of like what they did with the Original xbox... Unlike Sony Microsoft does not support there systems...

If you don't understand this after seeing what happened with the Original when the 360 came out, there's nothing anyone can do for you... the xbox should have out lived the PS2, seeing as how it was released a year after the PS2 with much better hardware. But, Microsoft Killed it of as year before any of the other next gen systems came out... Odd seeing how the System with the Best hardware was killed First...

At least when I finaly get a PS3 I'll know that it will still have a Life span 2 times longer then the 360... Now who is getting milked (The answer is Lemmings)

That is true, a lot of PS3 owners are men. Big burly men, men you feel safe with when they embrace you with their warmth.

This forum is getting ridiculous, its nothing but a bunch of fanboy rants. Does anybody here actually know anything about gaming. The 360 has the lead in US, and is out selling Ps3 3 to 1 here, I don't consider that a failure.

just because sony had plans to make the ps2 last longer then 5 years..doesnt mean microsoft had the same plan in mind. the xbox wasnt doing as well as microsoft hoped so they did the SMART thing and discontuine it and focus on their next console. but if you wanna keep thinking the ps3 will last 10+ years.. go ahead

Nice job again igorning ur own ownage.

Anyway I HAVE played PC games. I dont love it. Sorry I dont love PC gaming pal, millions of people dont. Some people love the PS3, some 360 some Wii some DS more than pc GAMING. Its called preference and taste. U need to learn about it and stop insulting people cause they dont live up to a standard u think exists that doesnt.

People like what they like.

Do you even know what you are talking about :|

Xbox sold 20 million+ in a matter of 5 years

It took 360 to sell 13+ million in a matter of 2 years.

That means by sometime next year it should sell 17-18 million, thats alot more successful than the original Xbox.

It has every console beat in hardware and software sales, and 3-1 ratio in hardware sales compared to PS3, and last time I checked a 7:1 ratio in software sales compared to PS3 or Wii.

Get over dude, 360 is here to stay, your favorite console is getting its ARSE handed to them.

What were those PC games that you played?

Its obvious your lying, u dumb lemming :)

PSTriple4life

Nice, more insults, ur argument keeps getting stronger huh?

And yes I have played PC games before. I dont lie like some people I wont mention obviously who.

I've played some Counterstrike years ago, Age of Empirers II which I did like a lot. Police Quest IV which was wayyy back. Some flying game I cant recall the name of and some army FPS I also dont recall. Played all that mostly at a friends house except for Age of Empires II which came with the PC a I bought in 2003.

Anymore insults?

BTW: Im no Lemming... I like the 360 but also own a PS2/PS1 and plan on getting a PS3. Im no fanboy but u obviously are the way u bash the 360 to ur hearts content

Well fair enough, but you just need to remember, because yours cannot, it doesnt mean PC's are not designed for gaming.

The "average PC" isnt designed for gaming :|

The regular joe who has a desktop or labtop he brought for $800-1300 dollars cant play crysis, thats a fact.

Saying "teh PC" here is a concept designed for people who have a $1300 hundred dollar video cards and can play every game on Ultra High settings.

That couldnt be farther from the truth as most people, such as the topic creator, cant play those games that high.

"The PC" is a bunch of high value parts put together and compared to consoles here, as said, a concept.

Who cares about sales... It came out a year before the PS3 or Wii (And they wii Is killing it in terms of Sales BTW)... oh you forgot to mention its horrible failure rate... The 360 is going to be scraped the second they have to fix to many and start losing money on it... Once again screwing over everyone and anyone that thought it was going to be a good system to buy...

a watered down PC??? That may have been true for the first Xbox that used a Pentium III CPU, but the 360 using a custom RISC IBM CPU.

PCs use x86 intel architecture.

Don't Worry... Microsoft will kill the 360 of in another year... Kind of like what they did with the Original xbox... Unlike Sony Microsoft does not support there systems...

If you don't understand this after seeing what happened with the Original when the 360 came out, there's nothing anyone can do for you... the xbox should have out lived the PS2, seeing as how it was released a year after the PS2 with much better hardware. But, Microsoft Killed it of as year before any of the other next gen systems came out... Odd seeing how the System with the Best hardware was killed First...

At least when I finaly get a PS3 I'll know that it will still have a Life span 2 times longer then the 360... Now who is getting milked (The answer is Lemmings)

Do you even know what you are talking about :|

Xbox sold 20 million+ in a matter of 5 years

It took 360 to sell 13+ million in a matter of 2 years.

That means by sometime next year it should sell 17-18 million, thats alot more successful than the original Xbox.

It has every console beat in hardware and software sales, and 3-1 ratio in hardware sales compared to PS3, and last time I checked a 7:1 ratio in software sales compared to PS3 or Wii.

Get over dude, 360 is here to stay, your favorite console is getting its ARSE handed to them.

Who cares about sales... It came out a year before the PS3 or Wii (And they wii Is killing it in terms of Sales BTW)... oh you forgot to mention its horrible failure rate... The 360 is going to be scraped the second they have to fix to many and start losing money on it... Once again screwing over everyone and anyone that thought it was going to be a good system to buy...

A 23% percent failure rate is not as bad as the failure rate of dreaded DRE of the PS2, I insure you.

It is a problem that is getting fixed if not fixed by now or next year.

MS has gone on record of saying they expect to make profit sometime in 08...with all these problems fixed they are just going to be making money in the Console war now.

Not bad for an American company which was dominated by foreign competitors for decades now dont you agree :wink:

Sorry but many million love their 360 like me and dont care for PC gaming either even... so nice try.

And and btw ur pic isnt as funny as that bet u made to leave GS if Halo 3 got AAA here but then u refused to confirm ur bet and backed out and gave the silent treatment acting like u never gave the bet so u wouldnt get owned. Now THAT is funny.

I love it how people cant accept a system cause they hate it so much. People like it, get over it or join Jack Thompson and try to get rid of the 360

PSTriple4life

Thats because MOST Xbox GAMERS ARE KIDS and Most Xbox owners DONT KNOW ANYTHING WHEN IT COMES TO PC GAMING OR PC's IN GENERAL

Nice job ignoring u running away from ur own made bet. And nice job calling me a kid just cause I dont like ur prefered system. I guess hating someone or mocking them for liking something u dont makes u mature then huh? Well the kid that I am lol Loves the 360... nice try

I bet you have never even played a game on PC

Ummmm, I have a PC and a 360, Loving the fact that I can enjoy games that are out before the pc 2-12 months later then the PC. Especially Halo games that take what 2-3 years to see a pc port.

But I guess your right though, Even though Microsoft gaming divison is making a profit on the 360 (finally) they should stop and turn there attention to the PC (As to which only "Hardcore" games play) and drop the watered down (x3 3.2Ghz with 2 cores between them 512mb custom ATI card) PC.

I guess you have a better console then the 360 anyway, right?

I was big into PC gaming until about a year and a half ago but I didnt have enough money to keep it up. People like consoles more because they are much cheaper than a top of the line PC and you dont have to worry about upgrading every six months to keep up with the games. Sure PC games can give you the top of the line graphics but only if you are willing to shell out 300 every sixth months to pay for it. If the TC can afford that than more power to them but im fine with my 360.

The "average PC" isnt designed for gaming :|

The regular joe who has a desktop or labtop he brought for $800-1300 dollars cant play crysis, thats a fact.

Saying "teh PC" here is a concept designed for people who have a $1300 hundred dollar video cards and can play every game on Ultra High settings.

That couldnt be farther from the truth as most people, such as the topic creator, cant play those games that high.

"The PC" is a bunch of high value parts put together and compared to consoles here, as said, a concept.

You cant read sarcasim or "figure of speech" over the internets.

Thats may fault for not adding the the typical "(sarcasim)" at the end of the sentence.
