The hardware is shoddy and they make you pay $50 a year for features that i've had on the pcfor free all of my life.

Xfire + Steam or any number of other pc online services is equal to XBL, and when you throw in all the free mods, etc.,there's just no comparison. I don't think anybody should pay anything for XBL, let alone the price of a new game every year. It doesn't even have dedicated servers for the majority of it's games.

I love all the other platforms, though, and I have them all. :)

I own a xbox 360, but the only reason I really hate it is because of the community. On xbox live, or on any of these boards the xbox fanbase are some of the most idiotic, lieing, creeps I've ever seen.

Just them? :?.

I used to hate them too but this wonderful product change my online gaming forever.

Really not everybody using the xlive is a total ahole,there are good people here and there but the amount of aholes still beats it.

I used to bash the x360 when i was a Sony fanboy but then Gears of war convinced me (I pwned 3 guys in a game store the first day i play it)then I was interested and then I got one for Christmas.

Well whatI can tell ya?,the Dark side is cool :twisted:.

1. It has no fun games

2. You have to pay for online service of low quality

3. Everyone seems like they are 10 years old on Gears

Obviosuly you've neverplayed or owned a 360....the only reasonable excuse was #3.

the hardware is my main concern.

no Wifi, no HD-DVD (or Blu-ray), no real HDMI output (the one onelite is the old 1.2), and rediculous XBL fees. PS 3 is better on all those things i said. no need to get milked by M$ for this add-on, that add-on.... then release another version, etc etc...

I don't hate it. But damn, it could have been way better if only MS had stepped up in certain areas!

The console just doesn't feel right to me. It's an incomplete piece of hardware in my eyes. I recently noticed that the online gameplay was not much fun, because of all the lag and childish players.

No fun games? Bad online service? XBL has the best online service with all its content downloads demos and arcade games. Also the multiplayer is great with hardly any lag so its obvious that you have never played on XBL. And as for it having no fun games thats your opinion and alot of people seem to think otherwise.

I own one, I don't hate if but M$ pisses me off with there shody services they provide.

1. They refuse to admit there horid hardware failure rate.

2. at least a few times a month I will get a angry customer where I work **** at me because there system doesnt work and expect me to fix it, because they don't want to send it away and pay money to get it fixed.

3.Downloadable content, and paying for Xboxlive milk money from customers who payed for a system, at least the other systems price point includes free online. all you pay for with the Xbox is the faulty hardware and if you pay enough a HD-DVD drive wich they will also piss many of with when/if they switch to Blu-ray they have been reported saying that if Blu-ray wins they will figuratly speaking screw all the people who bought the HD-DVD drive.

I just plain don't like the way MS conducts themselves, they lack inovation in any area they venture into and just try to muscle there way past whatever competion they find with there botomless pockets and stealing almost any idea they find interesting. While I dislike all this the Xbox for all it's lacking does have games I do play and enjoy. I just feel M$ won't admit to there own faults such as charging people just for a mediocre online service...The best online service I have on my PC is free and it rocks X-box live.

I wouldn't buy it because of the reliability issues. I want to spend time playing my games...not waiting for a new one to be shipped to me through the mail. Also it lacks somethings that should be a standard like either a blu-ray or HD-DVD slot and HDMI capabilities. Also I choose PS3 because the franchises I enjoy are on it (MGS4, Final Fantasy, Tekken, Ratchet and Clank, GT)

1- too many shooters

2- OVER-priced and FLAWED online (LAGGYTOSKIT)

3- 10 years screaming on XBOX LIVE, plus the crying, whining, racism, WEIRD PEOPLE, weird voices

4- Games are short --- 8 hours average

5- Hardware problems including (red lights, crashes, flames, FREEZES and LOUDness)

well thats probably my Xbox 360 but M$ should really spent time making a IDEAl HARDWARE plusget NOn-shooter games

I don't hate it at all but it does have relatively unreliable hardware, plus it's pretty loud and I'd prefer the online to be free. Otherwise, it's basically a perfect console...

MS isn't a company that deserves power.  That's half the reason I don't own one.  the other half is that it's costs too much.  Why did this have to be the generation that decided 300 was no longer the target selling price?  I wish the orginal Halo didn't exist, so the first Xbox could fail and keep MS out of the console industry.

makingmusic476

That's the thing though, some PC gamers have Xfire and some have Steam or some have ...etc etc, can you invite someone on Steam to play GTR2 or someone on Xfire to play HL2 deathmatch, or do you have to start up the relevent service.

Dedicated servers are god awful in my opinion, the speed is good, but they can get a bit rife with idiots.

I really don't mind paying for XBL, it really does feel like you are part of a gaming community, free would be good, but a few pence a day is good value. I also benefit from free PC online too, but there isn't too many games I like to play on it.

I hate the 360 because its

loud

unreliable

cheaply made

online gaming should be free

halo/gears are its best games i never liked halo and gears isa short graphics demo

no hd player I want to watch hd movies on my hd tv ffs

no wifi

DVD9 is a big mistake in the long run

also core is a bigmistake in the long run

its white(yes i am that petty)ffs who has a white tv

oh and my favourite its made by microsoft why would i willingly buy that

i have pc for gaming so windows is practically a must but now i have my ps3 i can retire from pc and enjoy a reliable more future proof cost effective media centre

I only hate it when it freezes or crashes with red lights. (only got red lights once, but the freezing is happening more and more.) Oh and there is the fact that the disc drive wont open unless there is a disc in it. Great system, bad hardware.
