why do 360’s exist

Says the 15 or 14 year old who dreams about parnakas…

He's only got a little brain, he can't think of anymore.

lol wtf does this have to do with 360's existence 

This is a bad thread, you know there is a thread exactly like this on a 360 site somewhere right now asking “Why does sony suck so hard? Why do they epic fail lol lmfao omg omg omg omg”

Whatever. Anyways I do hate microsoft tho. I like to think my reasons for doing so are pretty valid. Here they are for those of you who dont already know why

1) All the games on 360 marketplace cost more than PSN. This includes DLC, Rock band/ Guitar hero content, games etc. A $10 game/DLC is 800 points on xbox (which translates to $12+tax) while the same game/DLC is only $10 on PSN. Examples include all COD map packs, Crystal defenders, Fallout DLC etc. 

Beyond that Microsoft sells us those points, so god only knows how much of that extra 20% they get to claim for all those sales.

2) Microsoft dosen't let you use your own equipment with your system. On my PS3 I bought a western digital HDD (500 gigs for $137), whereas for xbox you had to pay $200 for the official microsoft 120 gig unit. Total rip off! I still got a 20 gb drive and I refuse to upgrade it. 

3) Hmm another Money related one. Xbox does not let you game share (Which i totally understand) BUT!!!!!! They also wont let you buy a game and have 2 profiles share the achievements. Sooooooooooo If you have 2 kids and they both want the achievements in a game, you have to buy that same game twice. Make that 3 copies if you want the achievements too. 

So thats a few of MY main reasons. I decided to omit the “$60 a year to play online” and things like that as everyone knows those. Also, I really appreciate what sony is doing with letting us gameshare with 5 PS3s, DL our PSP games on up to 5 psps, letting more than 1 user get the trophies etc etc etc. I just feel like I'm getting a lot more bang for my buck than I ever did with that Space age HD-DVD hunk o' garbage.

……oh yeah, and PSN has WAY more sales than Live too. BONUS!

OH yeah, forgot one other critical item too. 

Along with microsofts extensive lengths to make sure no one can share games, I got boned on this too:

When you buy content online, that content saves to your consoles serial #. So, when you get the RROD and send your system back they send you a refurb with a different serial #. SO, If you're not signed into xbox live you cant play your games. I bought about 20 games before the RROD And now I cannot play them if im not online. It's not bad if I'm home, but I cannot take the xbox to my parents house, my grandmothers or anywhere that I do not have high speed internet. 

It really sucks that I BOUGHT the games fairly and I'm restricted as to when and where I can play them.

XBOX360 sucks. If you think it well playstation 1 got first and after the XBOX got second so the microsoft copy sony 

By that logic sony copied nintendo, nintendo copied atari and atari copied computers. It dosen't matter who made it first. Sony's just doing the best right now.

Wii > PS3 > XBox 360 :p

i dont own a Wii put they are fun lol

The reason you think the Wii is fun is because you dont own one. There are very few decent games, and shaking your arms gets dumb after 3 hours or so

Heres something about the Wii. And read the comments…
