Yes! PS2 online is a joke! They need to get a centralized service up STAT next gen!

BTW I think Xbox has more Japan exclusive games than Gamecube even though their console sells like shit in Japan!

That's because Smilebit thought it was important to use Xbox-unique console graphics before Sega itself went spiraling down toward where it is today.
 
I like how it goes from worlds best to best to one of the best to some awesome.

And Halo is hardly a series. One title and a sequel that changed less than RCT1 to RCT2? Please.

It's obviously a modded Xbox that plays PS2 and GameCube discs. They talk about it all the time on GameFaqs and in schoolyards.

wow. in 2 years this board has done a complete 180 on it attitude towards xbox.

I wouldn't be surprised when MS has hired AEG to do some inflitrating in forums. ;)

edit: I do know there are some in this forum in particular.
 
category titles such as Home to the worlds best online gaming service bring this into non-console debate, IMHFO :b


many of the choices he presents would only work well if you ignored that any other platforms existed--his categories are broad in a way that doesn't specify any particular platform--and his thread title means jack shit

Making arbitrary lists is fun! :D

only the best for consoles

Home to the best new series this gen: Halo

The pikmin disagree.

Home to the best action game this gen: Ninja Gaiden
perhaps. VJ and/or Ninja Gaiden could take it.

Home to the best fighting game this gen: DoA:U
Better than Soul Calibur 2 or Smash Bros Melee? Or Street Fighter Anniversary Collection?
Home to one of the best RPGs this gen: KOTOR
True. ONE of the best rpgs. I still think that Disgaea (if you count that as an RPG) is the best, and ToS and Paper Mario 2, IMO, are better than KoToR.

Home to one of the best platformers this gen: Blinx! *Blinx 2: Still Sucking at an Xbox near you soon!*
? Well, that's your opinion, I guess.

Home to some awesome racers: PGR2 and RSC2
That is true. Xbox does have awesome racers.


Really, any of the three consoles could be or couldn't be the console of choice for an individual. It all depends on their gaming preferences, and which specific games on each console happen to appeal to them the most. This generation, everyone wins.

Yeah.

Super Smash Bros. Melee is not a fighting game. It's Nintendo fan service.

ToS and Paper Mario are better than KOTOR? :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol

A by-the-numbers generic RPG story and a simplistic mascot RPG better than one of the best RPGs in the last few years? :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol

casual appeal determines quality? I simply have had more fun with Pikmin and Pikmin 2 than I have with Halo and Halo 2 (I played it at my friend's).

I had more fun with ToS and Paper Mario 2 than I did with KotoR. That's all that matters. I'm not saying KotoR is bad. It isn't. It's a great game. I just think ToS and PM2 are better.
 
I completed KOTOR 6 times, each time with over 30 hours.

It is indeed much better than Paper Mario, but PM is awesome. And KOTOR doesn't have Bobbery or Rawk Hawk.

I liked the music when you played agains Rawk Hawk.
 
Paper Mario 2 is at least as good as KOTOR, Bioware's worst RPG in years.

Manabyte mocking a game for being fanservice is hilarious...don't you need to be getting in line for Episode III tickets? It's doubly hilarious when the original game mentioned is DOA.

Have they hired the Dumb? Because the viral marketing for that is indigo hot in this thread.
 
Anyway, the funny thing is that I agree with most of MrBob's post. Xbox is the best racing console, even without GT. Halo is definitely the biggest new series, and even as someone who doesn't care much for console FPS games I have to admit it's pretty good. Ninja Gaiden is fantastic, and Otogi/Otogi 2 are pretty fun as well. KOTOR is "one of" the best RPGs for the current consoles. Blinx is one of the top 50 platformers this gen.

What? Are you serious or are you kidding? Cause if you're serious I'd love to learn more about this...

They don't "hire", they give "incentives" to people here to post what they tell them to post. Like a free game every now and then straight from MS.

I believe that is a great compliment toward Bioware, as their 'worse RPG in years' is viewed by so many to be a radical change, a shining star in the RPG genre, and one of the best games of the year.

Yet, KOTOR really is one of their least impressive RPG efforts....I'm hoping that Bioware's history of creating AAA role playing games does not end with them seemingly adopting the Xbox as their platform of choice (I fear they are simplifying their games to meet the expectations and limits of the more casual console gamer).

I'm serious. You can read about it at their website http://www.aeginfo.com/about.html

I do know that they exist here because I got a pm from them asking my to create some "buzz" for CDV's games. There's bound to be others who have been contacted, and I'm sure have accepted the offer.
 
I'm really looking forward to seeing what Bioware does with Jade Empire!

Also, MS giving people incentives to post postive threads in forums?! Where is my cut MS I should get like 5 free copies of Halo 2 LE for this thread!!!

Agreed. And once again...the Nintendo people work the hardest for not very much in return.

I work for my own personal opinion if I am allowed to have one. Thank you very much.

Oh shit! This is disgusting! Nice work microsoft... always doing their best to be hated. And to the people who are participating on this you should be ashamed.

ToS? :lol

I have never had as much fun playing an RPG this generation as I did with ToS, thanks to the wonderful battle system. That alone makes it my 2nd favorite RPG this generation (next to skies)
