It' s delayed about 5 weeks and so will arrive in November, but since i' m getting the Valve developed 360 version it doesn' t affect me and i' ll still be playing Episode 2 on October 10th...

Blasphemy! How can you not get the PC version? Half-Life and Team Fortress belong on PC, on a console it' s just wrong. It would be like playing Halo on PC.[:' (]

There was nothing wrong with Halo on the PC, obviously played alot better with M&K and the 100fps ECT.. It was the fact that there was alot better games to play on PC than Halo.

I' m not talking about quality, I' m talking about the principle. However if you want to talk about quality, I could talk about all the mods for Half-Life 2 that you can' t get on the 360 version. Not to mention the fact that it' s actually a PC game, ported to a console. Unless you don' t have a computer why would you want to play a PC game ported to a shit box console? It reminds me of StarCraft 64, a pile of shit.

Lengendary PC games need to stay on PC and legendary console games need to stay on consoles.

The 360 version you' ll be stuck playing in 720p@30fps with I' m assuming downgraded visuals. Online you' ll be stuck playing with a bunch of snot nose kids. Most importantly three years from now when you chuck 360 in the trash, all 360 games will be useless too.

Orange Box will be a timeless classic, it should only be played on the platform that never dies. Same thing with UT III.

The 360 / PS3 market' s are too important to miss out on. The once ' we can' t stand PC games' Console audience.. had a taste (in dumbed-down form) VIA Xbox/360 and now can' t get enough..

Now we have A big market of Lazy Kids Craving PC-style games to be play Via ' half-arse' fasion.. (Pad)


.. Devs are obviously gonna cash in on this..

Meh, I' m too lazy and I don' t think it' s my sort of game. It' s the sort of game that takes a while before you can really get into it. By the time I would start to enjoy the game, all the big titles I really care about will be out. I have the COD4 beta and Halo 3 will be out in just two weeks! Not to mention the fact that I still haven' t beaten Bioshock yet.

Why even post this? The only people here with a PS3 are Nitro & Me, and we both have 360s/PC, so we dont give a shit.

Ever heard of backward compatibility?

No you dont have to throw away your 360 games when the next xbox comes out, it will play them.

Backwards compatibility will be very difficult next gen. I don' t expect it.

It has a bunch of shitty ones. The only handheld with good fighting games is PSP.

This is the best rated fighting game on GBA -



Got 10/10 on IGN, LMFAO.

PSP has real fighting games:

GBA had Street Fighter Alpha 3 (PSP has Alpha 3 Max) and King of Fighters: EX2. The rest were awful Mortal Kombat ports and trash nobody' s never even heard of. It' s too bad the SP was really uncomfortable to hold for any length of time.

I think the last DS game i bought was New Super Mario Bros and that was in May. The only thing between May and next year that looks good is Sonic Rush Adventure (which has just been released), and i don' t know what else there is to expect next year, there could be nothing.

As far as i' m concerned PSP is the best handheld gaming device to date.

You are blind. There are games in abundance. I' m more interested in the PSP library than in the combined Wii, PS3, 360 and DS library.
And I don' t even use homebrew or the emulator.

Ask any Real Gamer. DS is the Best thing Since Snes and Megadrive days. Boosts way more franchises and genre' s than any Plattform out there.

From one the best 3d Games (M64), Best Plattformers (NSB, MB3, SA, SMW), Only alternative genres that no other Plattform can even attempt to re-create (Nintendogs, Hotel dusk, Electroplank, Braintraining, Daigasso! Band Brothers, Rhythm Tengoku, Cooking Mama). Best Adventures (Castlevania, Zelda' s) Best Open world alt (Harvest Moons, Animal Crossing). Best strategy (Advanced Wars), Best RPG (FF, PM, Rh, SOM) . Best so on and so on.. i cold go on all day.

DS is king by far.

Right but the thing you fail to mention is the GBA versions of those games are completely butchered, the only reason they got decent scores at the time is because there was nothing better.

Compared to what we have now on PSP all those GBA fighting games are unplayable garbage.

The only good RPG it has is Mario & Luigi. Pokemon and such is for fags, so don' t even bring that up, don' t be a homo.

And most of those games you mention are for fags, not for serious gamers. Serious gamers dont give a *** about things like nintendogs, come on, that shit is for homos. If I see anyone I know playing nintendogs I will beat the shit out of them, I' ll beat the faggot out of them myself if I have to, wtf is wrong with you. Zelda, castlevania, etc. are good though.

Furthermore, you are completely ***ing wrong anyway, the handheld of choice among " hardcore" gamers is PSP, not DS. DS is for dumb *** casuals that are easily amused, same as Wii really.

Now go jump off a bridge, assface.

Uh, even if I was since when does Fanboy = People that are defensive and angry?

Fanboy = Moron who supports inferior systems/games because they have a company' s cock up their ass, and typically are casual gamers who don' t know anything about gaming in the first place.

Both of those apply to you. Now go play nintendogs, homoboy, and pretend your GBA fighting games are even 1/10th as good as what PSP has to offer.
