@EnoshimaJunko:
Thank you. I didn't realize certain Pokemon have specific mega stones. I still haven't picked up a 3DS and as a result haven't picked up X&Y.
Why did you choose Y over X? Is it the better cartridge for competitive battling?

For the competitive battling scene it is difficult right now to determine how the metagame will develop.
Y Evolution makes for a better special sweeper with a Sp At. of 194 vs MewX's 154 and a Speed of 140 vs XEvo's 130.
On the other hand, Mewtwo X can be used as a Physical Sweeper with an Attack of 190 vs MewY's 150. And since Mewtwo will most likely not be left in on a Ghost type, a Brick Breaking MewX with a STAB bonus is a nice utility since Reflect and Light Screen, which is somewhat common in the competitive scene. Even running a MewX with Light Screen, Reflect, Psychic, Brick Break could be boss. Or a Light Screen/Reflect, Psychic, Brick Break, Earthquake/Stone Edge (For flying)/Poison Jab (For Fairy) Or Psychic, Brick Break, Stone Edge, and Poison Jab if you could predict switches correctly. It could be a nice surprise leaving his only hole against Ghost types. Of course the strategy seems to set up MewX as a Physical Sweeper.
Again, Mewtwo is generally an UBER which does not have many Ghosts other than Giratina and Ghost-Arceus. And most of the Ubers/Legendaries have high stats themselves.
However, I'm not sure if the TM to teach Mewtwo Brick Break is available in Gen 6. I'm also not sure if transferring him from the pokemon bank or whatever effects his Mega evolution or how Mewtwos from previous gen games get their Mega Evolution determined. I'd assume his Mega would be adapted based on which game he is transferred into. So if you have a Brick Break Mewtwo from HG/SS and transfer him into X, it would be a pretty rare beast. Though it would be a massive grind as the TM is obtained from the Battle Frontier in HG/SS. Unless I'm simply missing how to obtain a Brick Break TM from Gen 6 since I don't own the game. I'd assume that it can be earned from Gen 6's Battle Frontier.
I'm still debating this question myself. For simplicity, I think I'm going to get Pokemon Y for reasons outside of Mewtwo.
Though if someone could inform me about the whole TMs and transferring a HG/SS Mewtwo into X I'd get Pokemon X for Mewtwo's unpredictability and nice moveset.
Hope this helps with your decision instead of making it tougher.

So far it seems like I have it covered then.
But can someone answer my previous qustion.
What does UC stand for? Someone said something along the lines of "UC eats all of these games for breakfast."
Trying to figure out what game UC is, and if its a PC only game which is why I don't understand it.

UC stands for Uncharted, an exclusive series to the PS3.
As for your topic, I would say Assassin's Creed I, Alan Wake, BlazBlue: CS, or Crysis 2.
Thank you. I own Uncharted 1, need to pick up the 2nd one eventually.

I'm laughing pretty hard at the people saying any CoD games... But yea definatley Crysis 2 for now, and I'd argue that the Assassins Creed games have great graphics as well as being rly fun
Zalcor
I know. I like the game, but it's a prety fanyboyish thing to say considering it's still using the same engine from COD 3. I believe it's the same engine used in COD 3, if anyone has a link saying otherwise please inform me.
Crysis 2
But that's not saying much, nothing "wows" me on 360.
UC eats them all for breakfast.
ZombieKiller7
Meant to ask this earlier, UC?
I'd say Crysis, but Dead Space has some amazingly realistic graphics as well. I just got done with L.A. Noire and it's a beautiful game too.

My friend brought over LA Noire, as great as it looks, to be honest I'm not a big fan of the gameplay. I like how it is unique and more like a movie than a game. But that's just the thing, I want to play a game. LA Noire moves too slow for me, but definetly a great piece of work.
Battlefield 3 might look really good on October 25. It certainly does on the PC, but we will see how that translates over to consoles.

I'm excited for BF3 but worried that the E3 demonstration was running on a PC running with 2GeForce GTX 485Ms or something. I'm not sure, but I don't think 2006 technology can compete with that.
Ok so it looks like I will have to get Crysis 2 to show off my x360 theater setup. And I guess I'll get God of War 3 and Uncharted series for my ps3 hooked up to the same system.
I've seen better graphics than COD. COD has been running the same engine for years, though I like the game.
I was going to get Gears 3 regardless. Plus, I've always loved the Unreal engine look.
And I have ME2.
So until Forza 4 comes out it looks like i'll have the graphical beasts covered.
And yes I know PCs have had better graphics for years. However, I'd rather spend my money on a 3D tv theater setup than a gaming rig that would technically be outdated within a year. Plus, I don't know enough about PCs to build one, even switching out the graphics card would be too complicated for me. And fanboys don't hate, i own a mac.
Ehh I'm not really into racing games Forza 4 would be enough for me. I'll just wait for it to come out.
I guess for now I'll stick to ME2 and Dead Space 2 for my graphical display.
I am trying to find a game that can show off my X360 on my new theater set up. I wanted to know what are the greatest looking games out right now from a technical standpoint.
I know in the future I will be looking into Forza 4 (the cars look real!), Gears 3, Battlefield 3, and Elder Scrolls Skyrim from what I have seen at E3
However, as far as games that are out now I am not sure what is the most graphically demanding game. I thought maybe Crysis since I heard it killed people's PCs, but then i heard that it was dumbed down for consoles and there are better looking games.
So far I am thinking:
That's what I am thinking. Thoughts? Do you agree, am I totally wrong? If anyone has a site that shows benchmarks or something for the 360 like they do with PCs I would greatly appreciate it.
Thank you.
