Topics of this nature always lead to flame wars between 360 and PC users who don't realise the conflict is pointless because the answer is always based purely on individual lifestyle and preference. You probably only asked so you can decide which system to buy the game on, but regrettably, it will lead to flame wars regardless. :(
Meh, I may as well post a reasonable response seeing as there aren't any flamers here yet.
I'll be playing it on PC for the following reasons:
1. The most up to date console I own is a PS2.
2. I absolutely suck with analogue controllers, my thumb doesn't have the twitch sensitive aiming I'm used to when using my wrist/hand to aim.
3. Many of my day-to-day tasks and work are on a PC anyway, so it makes it more convenient for me.
I won't be playing it on the 360 for the following reasons:
1. Same as 1. in the PC list.
2. Same as 2. in the PC list.
3. Same as 3. in the PC list

A couple more good reasons to buy on PC:
1) its cheaper
2) you dont have to pay a yearly fee to play online
3) updates/mods will be free too
Fuck Microsoft and their money grabbing Live Marketplace.............

Both cant agree but both sounds so cool 360 got better graphics pc got better aiming 360 got better controlling. But 360 you do have to pay like 6.25 for 500 mp but i don't need it cause i got umlimited points

Go with the 360 if that's the case.

Well... The game will be as fun on both systems I'm sure.
If you're taking the game to a more serious lavel at a later time (clans, ladders etc). I'd recommend the PC.
If you want to spend a few hours of zombie wasting in the sofa with your bro sometimes I'd go with the console.

Like he said, it depends on what the person is best at. If your real good on 360 you can do well on a PC. If you do well on a PC then you can do well on a 360. I will buy it for both. First the 360 cause I really need to fix my PC, then I'll buy it for the PC. But preferably I will choose the 360, would be nice if they did split screen

i do own a 360 but this game seems way to flooded with enemys to play well on the 360 because of how much harder it is to aim on the 360 than with a mouse. and i got a shit computer but i rather have an easier more intense time then a frustrating, sweaty palm, controller fondling bore fest.

Lol... PS3's online is just as good as 360's... and its free sans moronic dildo faced prepubescent retards.
thats a lie, first off its not free at all. although sony hasnt charged u for the service and the vertual houses u all hang out in (bent) the game devolopers have the choice to charge for ur games, so while ppl on xbox live pay £30 for 12months, u may soon have to pay £30 for every game u play online and since it is costing to much for them to develop the games for the PS3 they are going to have to to make a profit.
secondly there is the bullshit bit about Sony not having mics, (also bent) they have said most USB mics work, but like on PCs most ppl dont even care enough to buy a mic and play like a real gamer.
and if u would like to draw ur atention to the future when consoles can play with PCs, who is going to get that privalige? sony...... or microsoft? . . anyone out there got Sony Windows? didnt think so.

Linux? Could happen. All I know is that games integrated with GFWL feature DX10, and that 360 doesn't support DX10. Don't know what that concludes to but something disappointing im assuming. As for current cross-platform play, Shadowrun looks like crap.
Online games won't cost money for the PS3, that being said by "online games" I meant KZ2, UT3 and MGS4... other than those I could care less. As of now, it IS free. PSN users get MORE CONTENT for FREE. Therefore... UN-LIE! There also goes the theory that, if your game isn't MMO, its taboo to charge money for it. Once that superstition is broken I will have played my ass of the MGS series, and be on my PC... still caring less about cross-platform play.
secondly there is the bullshit bit about Sony not having mics, (also bent) they have said most USB mics work, but like on PCs most ppl dont even care enough to buy a mic and play like a real gamer.
As for mics, the statement is quite confusing. Are you suggesting it doesn't support mics? Or are you mad people could care less about talking to you during play time. If that sounds insulting it doesn't mean to. People NOT having mics shouldn't interfere with your game one bit so I don't see why you care. It only means you should take a little more initiative when you play, assuming you have one.
Punisher 36O
08-07-2007, 04:05 AM
yeah, shadowrun is crap. but i think games like L4D would work well with cross platform, because its more team based than most and if u get a few PC players working with a few xbox players against AI it would leave out all the shit about reaction times and ppl talking shit. and my piont about that was simply, i saw someone say "PS3 is just as good online" and i think in the future when u have the choice to combine the 2 biggest online platforms of them all, xbox and PC, i dont think the PS3 could mesure up. and im pretty sure its up to the game developers if they charge or not.
the mic thing i ment. . y not put one in the god damn box? with out ppl talking and working together, online games are single pleyer games with very good AI, the mic that comes with the xbox is really shit. probly cost about 10 pence to make, y not put one in with the PS3? and if u jump into a random CounterStrike server u will no doubt find ppl not talking. . . or talking shit. from what i have seen of the PS3 online its much the same. except the part where u decorate a house. . .

Wow. Your post's grammar sums up how much credit anyone should give to it's contents.
First of all, Xbox has little to no games right now. Gears of War was one of the best games ever, but it had one huge flaw that could have been easily fixed- the lagg. The game does require skill online, but it's impossible to play fairly unless you're playing on LAN (thus nullifying online). This is due to the usage of listen servers, however, Halo 3 uses listen servers as well and the lagg is not an issue at all. The main problem is that the lagg effects just about nothing but your bullet delay. That's where the huge problem is.
You won't see these problems on a PC game because just about every single PC game uses dedicated servers.

I'm definitely not an xbox fan. PC's are far superior systems . As for older games? The meta-game has changed dramatically for these games. Playing Halo 2 now is so unappealing. It's a spam of exploits and bugs if you even want a chance at winning.

Hi
I was originally planning on getting this game for my computer but I'm not sure if my processor (1.80GHz) could take it. I run WoW and F.E.A.R. smoothly, although F.E.A.R. can get a bit laggy with a huge firefight going on. So I was wondering, should I just get this game for the 360? I don't have one yet but I'm saving up for one.

for the ppl who are Pro PC i agree they can be the best for games, and im glad u are happy with yours, but not everyone can eford to upgrade to keep up with how fast games improve, i have posed before that i love playing all games, and am a bit pissed off that i got a really good spec PC a few months ago with a large sum of money, and now i already own 2 games i cant run full. i have had an xbox 360 since it came out and although PCs can be beter gaming systems thay are more stressfull and i am not going to worry about wether i have a good enough spec to run the latest game, when i can get it for the box.

If u have a decent connection, it is perfectly fine, obviously everyone knows u don't have a 360, so I understand your mistake....my connection is shit either way so I don't do anything with my internet besides post here, but when I go to friend's houses with good internet it is fine and rarely laggs........if u were talking about the darkness, then I'd agree with u, but that's the dev teams fault and a whole different convo :)
I like the 360 because it has dead rising.
lol I soooooo regret trading it in in June!!! i just found an old disc with the demo so I played that a few times last night lol.

Laffo. Shrub is looking to stir shit up. =)
and am a bit pissed off that i got a really good spec PC a few months ago with a large sum of money, and now i already own 2 games i cant run full.
PC hardware always lags behind the software.
There will always be graphical settings that are unattainable to the majority of users when a high-end game is released - such as Crysis maxed out. Unless you're rocking a Cray super computer, it's out of reach. Same thing happened with Doom 3. Even a money-is-no-object-top-shelf system will struggle to run the newest titles maxed out. The hardware simply doesn't exist on a consumer level, or the technology is shaky at best (quad SLI). Most big budget titles are future-proofed in this manner. The full potential of the game will be realized as the hardware catches up, that's just the way it is with PC games.
... that said, I haven't seen Punisher 360 around for months. So whatever.

I remember something from a PC Gamer magazine..
The beauty of it is that these games will end up in a bargain bin in a years time, cheaper and runnable as the technology has improved to deal with it.
Or something like that.

well it is true, the games of today will soon be in the bargain bin in, oh, five years or so.

my friend yells at these two 360 fanbois in my "homeroom" class at school, and tries to explain the same thing. It turns into a *brouhaha, with plenty of cussing ;)

Umm well it's all sorta opinion but I find keyboard and mouses easier to control. Hence me raping Counterstrike but getting pounded in the behind at Halo 3. Only problem is that if you've ahd the same computer for 5 years then buying new games is pointless.
I love controllers for certain games (sports, adventure games, anything with flying or fluid movement) and keyboard/mouse for others (fps, rts). I choose not stoke the flames of PC vs console beyond this statement.

and that in my eyes is a bad thing about PCs, with consoles there is no stress or worry about will this run on full ect.

You could always hook up a XBOX 360 controller to your pc then set the settings inside the game. All new Source games like the OB.

and your post was pretty much what i said,
I suppose ... except for the fact that current gen console "max" falls far short of PC "max", even when one disregards the unattainable ultra high settings. Even PC DX9 medium can pull out a graphical win, depending on the title. This is why I (and others) are willing to shell out for a decent rig and suffer the lockups, freezes, hardware conflicts, system requirements, OS nonsense and blue screens o' death. We're not just technophiles with money to burn. There IS a reason we PC fanboys do the things we do.
Long story short: True, your brand new PC fails to run the newest titles maxed out. But! You can rest easy knowing ... it doesn't have to.

i wish i was that type of person, unfortunatly i am the type of person who is pissed off that i paid so much for somthing and dont get to play them full.
the console thing is just "ignorance is bliss" and personaly i dont think consoles are better at all, i just think with all the stress that comes with PCs playing games on them seems more like work and i have more fun on my Xbox.
and i hate when people attack this subject with a atitude of "the thing i use is right and urs is shit" because u can post away, nothing these people say will take away the awesome games i have played and have yet to play.

half the shit in my pc is a good 2 or more years old and it pawns crysis and anything else i care to throw at it. with no freezes lockups hardware conflicts os nonsense and blue screen o death shit (just thought id add that!) the only reason any one gets anything like that is because they dont know the first thing about building a pc. they just go out and buy the first hard drive/graphics card/motherbored or whatever else it is that has the bigest numbers in the name and go "owwwww ahhh that must be good mmm shiny"
but enuff of my bitching :) i suggest the only way to settle this would be a contest 4 pc boss zombies v 4 xbox survivers then same again but the other way around. best of 3 each time and over all winers take the souls of the lossers!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

Oh, I agree. PC is fantastic, but it comes with it's own set of headaches. You have to be a certain kind of masochist to actually enjoy troubleshooting a random issue. I love consoles as well, hassle free and accessible. Both have their own strengths and weaknesses and tend to be fairly comparable when all is said and done.
On one hand, it's not worth discussing consoles and PCs in terms of sheer performance. How can a console hope to compete against a platform that can upgrade the minute new technology appears? It cannot. On the same token, when discussing ease-of-use, affordability and broad appeal, the PC is hopelessly beaten, never to enjoy the same popularity and playerbase.
... which is why most PC vs console debates boil down to mouse/keyboard versus controller. It really is just preference, and even then it's largely dependent on genre.
