You know what *edited* this *edited*. I only got on to help Lemm out, and im not going to discuss the gaming industry or Euler’s proofs with you …Its not worth my time since you will always disagree with something anyone says…..Im not going to continue this. I got to finish my MS thesis and I need to focus and not be ranting on here, so end this and dont post.
Im going back to what I and the rest of the students do. Not get on this *edited*ty site.
Hey man you started it. You have no one to blame for that ranting but yourself. No one baited, asked for, or wanted you to do it. Not only did I agree with you but I did it on 3 seperate points. It’s time to come up with a new one liner.
Now back to the topic:
You can get an XBOX360 and a cheap bluray for the price of a PS3 w/o Move but it’s not really worth it. To get a decent version of the XBOX you have to spend a good deal more and, like you said, pay for online play. A year ago I’d have said go that route but this late in the game I’m just not sure the XBOX is worth getting, not if you also plan on getting a bluray player. Some of the newer XBOX games aren’t fully compatible with the intro-XBOX and while you can install your own HDD it’s a bit of a pain.
It’s a tough call. Microsoft is banking that digital media will take off and Sony is praying bluray stays successful. They’re both going to be right but for the forseeable future there will be very little overlap in media playback abilities. Tbh, I think they’re waiting to see which way Nintendo goes. Sounds fanboyish but it’s not. If Nintendo and MS both adopt digital downloads and make it work, Sony will be left as the only one still requiring you to keep up with DVDs. Conversely, if Nintendo and Sony both use blu ray DVDs and it works out, MS will be left out in the cold. It’s all about selling points and while they may not necessarily care about being in first place, no one wants to be the odd man out.
