Re: Xbox? PC? PS3? Retro? Which Do YOU Prefer?

I have seen a Sort of Demo of it shown, it looks appealing, but then again most Demo's do, thats the point, I may have to look at some reviews and more pictures.

EDIT: They do have some nice games, locked to Microsoft..
Does the PS3 have any kind of them?

More now than it did before.

On the demo situation you would think thats the case but its not. I played the demo of NFS:Pro street after owning all the games before it and after 5 mins of playing it I knew it was Rubbish ! Maybe thats why there was no demo for NFS undercover lol.

lol Maybe, I have never brought any of the NFS Series, those kind of car games don't interest me much. The only two car games that caught my eye and I played for longer than a few hours are, Forza Motorsport 2 and Test Drive: Unlimited.

Re: Xbox? PC? PS3? Retro? Which Do YOU Prefer?

I heard from quite a few people that NFS Pro Street was not as good as everyone hoped, and a let down from the past ones. I have not played that one either though, so cannot judge. lol.

If you ever get the chance then DONT lol it was very poor and was a letdown to the series.

If you ever decide you do what to try any out I would surgest looking at NFS Most wanted

Re: Xbox? PC? PS3? Retro? Which Do YOU Prefer?

I like gaming on the Xbox 360 & Xbox Live, but I have to say if it was a retro console, then the Megadrive, because of the Sonic series

Re: Xbox? PC? PS3? Retro? Which Do YOU Prefer?

Xbox 360 and live IMO are the best for gaming! As for my PS3 it has turned into a pretty expensive black brick under my TV!!!

Re: Xbox? PC? PS3? Retro? Which Do YOU Prefer?

It's a bit like the PC v Mac Argument, you will get people backing their side upto the hilt.
For me it's PC, just for it's vercitility. I don't just need something to game on, but do other tasks, DTP, Tinternet, Database/spreadsheets etc.
I am a great FSP, race/flight sim addict, and only ever enjoyed PC Versions.
We do have a PS3 in the house for my son, graphically it's much better, but appealwise, never did grip me the way similar PC games do or have. COD4 even my son agrees teh PC Multiplay version he can handle and enjoy much better on PC.
The keyboard/mouse combo for FSP's I could never change from

Cool Re: Xbox? PC? PS3? Retro? Which Do YOU Prefer?

FSP is the new FPS

So it seems that Xbox360 & PC are the most popular?

Not as many PS3 fans as I thought there would be..

For gaming Xbox360 - great 'gaming experience' all round and at a great price too!

For all round versatility - the PC for obvious reasons.

Retro choice - difficult either the Dreamcast or the N64.

Voted for the Xbox360.
