We don't want to spend hundreds of hours training so we don't get destroyed online, we mostly play for FUN. Something PC gamers seem to have forgotten about.
Haha, I don't even know if it's worth addressing a post this poorly reasoned.

But let's just start off with "us normal people" typically don't argue like rabid fanboys on internet forums.
Quick question from someone out of the FPS loop:

Are PC FPSs plagued with the homophobic/racist voicechat that seems synonymous with online console FPS? Namely, to the extent of those who apparently play for FUN?

Let me get this one Eggo.

No.
There isn't much else to it. The PC gaming community is by far the greatest online community you'll ever meet. Not saying it doesn't have it's asshole, but they are fewer and far between,

And it's precisely because the PC gaming community isn't made up of people who think that Halo invented online multiplayer, and spewing hate over the internet is standard practice.

EDIT: I'll delete that if I just derailed the thread further.
Just had to get that out.

I suggest if you buy a 360, drop the crappy games you mentioned and get Castle Crashers & Braid.
So screw all the full price, deep retail games and just buy the stuff from the Xbox live arcade. You know don't worry about playing with friends online (which was the point) and get some hollow toned down to fit the arcade size regulation games. Good idea there.
Have you actually played braid?
Shiiiiit yeeeaaah, it's all like WHOOOOOOP!

That is either the greatest single piece of satire I have ever laid eyes on or proof the world is fucked. I can't decide which.

Ok

1. A gaming pc: the money I currently have will only go towards one of two things a xbox 360 or some new ps3 games never will a buy a personal computer just for gaming I have always preferred game console pads and despise using mouse and key bored not to mention it would be cheaper for me to get a 360.( and I im not a fan of the orange box *shock horror*)

2. The wii: its a good little system but its not what I want.

3. Games: As you can see from the games I pointed out there I really am a mainstream gamer ( and one of the few that will admit it) games such as braid may be fun but like the wii not what im looking for, this does not mean I wont get them or try them but I am not going to by a console for it and also yes online play will be a big reason for me getting a 360 i have good amount of people I know who are on my PSN friend list but there are also a lot of people I know who have 360s

4. Soljah boy: the fuck people how did we get to this?

Now NONE of this is relevant to my original question
I have games console A I am thinking of buying games console B but wonder if B will entertain me enough to be worth my money. For those of you that have both A and B was buying the second one worth it or do you now ignore either A or B.
That's all not what's better or what else I could get.

I've got a Wii and a 360. Since I think the MGS series is the most overrated thing in gaming and Final Fantasy excites my about as much as David Blaine, I'm quite happy with my decisions.

If you have the money, get both. Both the ps3 and 360 are used by me about the same and constantly. The 360 has crapped out on me twice since buying it a year and a half ago, but with the extended warranty, it isn't a huge idea. Really, especially for the games you want, it's worth it. You just overdose on how many games you want to get when you broaden your number of consoles.

I use both my 360 and PS3; sometimes my girlfriend wants to watch tv, and so I can totter off to go play another game elsewhere.

In addition, it gives me more options to pick up games cheaply, as I almost always buy them used.

Now quit complaining about how the thread is going. You're starting to sound like a whiner.

So your question is actually "Should I buy an X-Box?"
In which case you should refer to my original post and the other posts on here that say it's worth it. Now stop whining.

PS3/360 harmonize surprisingly well. I got the Wii but I didn't like the games while PS3 also has whizzy bangy FPSes.

Does no-one here get satire? I don't have any preference in the matter, I suppose next time I'll have to note when I'm doing a poor impression of a fanboy.

I was tired and I admitted that I've done better, I'd hoped people here knew me well enough to notice it, but apparently not. I'll make note in future.

Sorry everyone.

I "get" satire, but I didn't have any evidence that you were using it.

I wrote out this whole response, then read your last post stating you weren't being serious. Haha. Oh well.
