Don't get me wrong, the PS3 has a decent online system, but the 360's for the time, is just better. However, if rumor turns out to be true (and this I have only heard through word-of-mouth... and not the most reliable source) Sony's online system may improve exponentially... though I have yet to see any evidence that this is truly going to happen.

Nintendo's, however is simply worthless. There is no friends list, except for codes you have type in, and that still gives no way to tell if your friends are online, the matches lag an unacceptable ammount, there really aren't that many games worth playing online... Let's face it, online gaming is not Nintendo's primary concern, they're all about "getting the family together"... and making millions by publishing hordes of gimmicky games (like Beach Fun Summer Challenge, Action Girlz Racing, Wii Music, Carnival Games and Wii fit) occasionally producing games for the hardcore (Metroid Other M, The Next Zelda Game, Super Mario Galaxy, etc.)

What happened to the Wii is what I am terrified will happen to the 360 when Natal comes out. Ugh, I dread looking at the 360 wall in Game Stop and seeing millions of games like "Family Party: 30 Great Games" and "Beach Fun Summer Challenge" with only the occasional Halo, or Assassin's Creed, or Mass Effect.

Taunts had a very important purpose in the Art of Fighting series which I believe were the first games they appeared in. They diminished you're enemies spirits to make their special moves completely pathetic and ineffective. Creative taunting was the only way to beat Mr. Karate in the first game or else he would absolutely wreck you.

They do what makes money and right now, Wii Fit is the second best selling non-bundled game of all time.

Dumbest thing involving video games.

1. Microsoft not caring about their consumers and pumping out faulty merchandise just because.

2, Ps3 releasing at $500

3. Skimping on co-op for more team deathmatch

4. Microsoft charging everyrone to much goddamn money to do anything.

5. Microphones and children.

6. Achievement points (even though i go for them DAMMIT)

7. No save points or not enough checkpoints.

8.can't read read those word!!!..."oh wait i got an 42inch hd lcd thats better".

9. Where everybody at?...,Microphone dies in the middle of left for dead on expert.

10. Batteries are dead you lose go home and buy a new controller and feed microsoft some more money.

" After being banned from the PlayStation Network for hateful comments stated in Resistance's online community, Erik Estavillo launched not one, but two, lawsuits against Sony for infringing on his "first amendment rights" -- an argument that was shot down by Judge Ronald Whyte simply because "Sony is not part of the government."

However, what Estavillo lacks in civil online discourse, he makes up for with sheer determination and persistence. In addition to Sony, he now has both Microsoft and Nintendo in his sights. Estavillo is seeking $75,000 from Microsoft for the "undue stress" and "sadness" caused by his Xbox 360's RROD. "Microsoft should have to bear the burden that is now put on the shoulders of this disabled plaintiff," his claim states -- a burden that is equivalent to the sum of 375 Xbox 360 systems, apparently. Nintendo is being sued for interfering with Estavillo's "pursuit of happiness." And how exactly is Nintendo doing that? "Deleting, blocking or prohibiting the Homebrew Channel and Ocarina applications" via a system update.

We're hoping you can see the sheer brilliance of Estavillo's strategy. He's offering the perfect opportunity for PlayStation, Xbox and Nintendo fans to agree on something for once. "




He's a Martyr and a Hero


... at least he got the balls to do something that stupid

Here's a destructoid's list of dumb things last year

aside from the ACII review (sad, it's just them trying to get protagonism), they forgot the dumb "racist" discussion about RE5 and L4D2

These are both cases of companies ignoring the past. Sony just forgot what happened to the Neo Geo, the Jaguar, and the 3DO but are now correcting their price snafu (but not their PS2 snafu). Microsoft will change its policies once they start paying out billions in class action settlements like Toshiba is.

I played this one http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Columbine_rpg wasn't that bad, I just played it because of the controversy around it though, particularly the Braid thing.

Oh yeah. Didn't they also make a game about September 11th awhile back? I forget. Either way, it's despicable.

that one is probably the stupidest one actually, i mean how can you be that in love with a game that you starve yourself?

PS3 getting bad ports of games that are released on the X360 despite being the more powerful machine. Just look at Bayonetta and Orange Box.

Yea, and not just because of WoW, Everquest 2 was involved as well. There were also IRL killings because of EQ2.

Well, this has happened not to just PS3. And PS3 has a somewhat potentially more powerful CPU, but X360 has a more powerful GPU. It evens out somewhat.

Yea, but that's CSI. In that show, they can identify the killer by the way he/she farts. Besides, I thought we were talking about IRL.
