Because for me that point hit about halfway through the game. End of story.

As with Asura's Wrath, I played through 2/3 of this with friends.

It's ridiculously fun and addicting and the cut-scenes are just awesome to watch as well. I might just have to get it for myself if I ever get around to getting my tv replaced.

I'm only an hour or two in, but its a slicker, more polished return to familiar mechanics.
You do basically the same stuff.

But thats like saying you shoot people in SR2 and SR3.
Duh. Right?

Well yeah. I think the whole design and look of the game is better. More cohesive.
And as always, I still find this stuff (as in both Prototype games) fun-er than anything the inFamous games ever had to deliver.

Alright, WCM, the time has come for me to make a choice:


Image
Pros:
Most of my friends have it
I've already got about a dozen games for it (used to have a 360, my sister who got it from an ex lent it to a friend, that guy's entire house got robbed, still have the controllers)

Cons:
Xbox Live
Halo


OR

Image
Pros:
Free Online
Butt-tons of exclusives
Blu-ray (this is why I'm mostly pushing for this)
Most of you WCMers seem to have this

Cons:
Uh, I guess it depends on the version of the PS3 I get, since I don't have any PS1 or PS2 games, I guess I shouldn't worry too much about backwards compatibility.
I'll have to edit this post later when I get back from work.

pros and cons for both:
I would buy a bunch of games that I already own on PC

edit:

Just for clarification, I generally like a game that isn't RTS (for some reason i just can't get into them). FPS, RPG, whatever.
Also, no need to worry about Netflix/media shit, I already have a Wii for that.

It depends what you want from your console. If you want to play online a lot, or never, get the x box, if a bit get the playstation, although if you already plan on getting love gold if you get an x box, also consider playstation plus, which costs the same and has more features such as cloud storage for save games, free downloads, access to betas, and automatic download of patches and stuff whilst you are away. Also bear in mind the x box has adverts everywhere in the interface, the playstation has none.

What kind of games do you like?

Do you want your console to act as a stand alone media center?

Do you want your console to be a media hub(dependidng on where you live, Zune, Netflix, among many other apps are available)?

Answer this and we can help you better. Just because I have a Xbox I´m not gonna recomend it blindly to everyone.

PS3 is the best for media, and the uncharted games alone are must buy exclusives, but the xbox is undeniably better for PC type games, or any AAA titles, PS3 is better for Indie games.

I've owned both.

And I personally love the ease and accessibility of the PS3's XMB menu over whatever the fuck it was the X-Box had.
PSN is free. I can access Netflix without a damn gold account.
And I'd personally vouch for it all the way 100%.

Even after I played Gears 1 & 2, and at the time, 3 was on the horizon,
it wasn't enough to stop me from selling the X-Box, and using the money to buy a ton of PS3 games.
It wasn't worth it after the one month free Gold trial.

Like I said, I'm not looking for a new media player, unless I also start buying blu-rays.

edit: i could buy an xbox and get a bd player, but then i would be missing out on all the awesome ps3 exclusives. i could buy a ps3 and get bds and the awesome exclusives, but not a lot of my friends (not the wcm ones) have ps3's. man i hate making decisions. let's see what facebook says.

Good point, but is your PC screen as big as your TV?

To be honest, if all your friends have Xboxes, you already have some games and you don't mind paying for gold, and you actually plan to play online, you should probably go for the xbox, and get a blu ray drive for your PC our something.

screen size isn't a matter to me, i also don't want to pay $60 for xbox live.

Then you might as well get a PS3 then, our even better, use the money to upgrade your PC.

So the PC version of this just came out, since the console version came out the same day as Diablo 3 (which raped PC sales, also does anyone else here play?), Rockstar delayed the PC port to ensure sales would not falter.


Image

In short,

HOLY SHIT. Rockstar, once again, outdoes themselves. If you're familiar with the MP series, and don't have this game yet, I pity you. Everything about the story is nothing short of phenomenal, the multiplayer is an awesome add-on, and I can't wait to finish it.
