It doesn't matter. The Wii is better than XBox 360 and PS3 combined. Yeah, I said it. What now?



This is what the gaming world needs ....................

I'd say there's a lot more hackers on pc than all consoles combined.  That's one of pc's huge downsides.

Really? I've seen people banned a LOT from servers lately just because they use Marty or Last Stand. A hacker wouldn't stand a chance. In the time I've played CoD4 online, I've seen maybe......... 3 hackers? It was more of an amusing experience when it occurred. Out of nowhere the "kill ticker" would fill up with headshots. That player would soon be removed.

Compare to all the reports of hacking on Xbox...

whats the big deal with last stand? i can understand martyrdom, but to ban players just because they use a certain in-game perk or weapon is just silly.

Would you ban TGT if you had the chance? I think that answers your question.

The thing is TGT is OP Martyrdom isn't

You can run away from a dropped grenade, but never TGT.

It's just a server rule. They don't want those perks used on that server, and will kick or ban you if you don't follow them. Simple.

You're not banned from the entire game.  :P

How so? That's only certain servers that don't allow those perks.

i know. i just found it a bit...i dunno...discriminatory?...that you couldnt play just because you used a certain perk. like i said, i can understand martyrdom, which infinity ward has stated in so many words or less that its broken, but i just dont get last stand. its pretty crappy most of the time.

So...pretty sure Microsoft is like a cricket to the skyscraper that is Sony.  :P  The only reason they make so much money is because their product stinks so much.  I've had innumerable friends that have had red ring/blue screen of death/dead system.  Some, more than once.  And their controllers (thinking specifically of guitar hero guitars at least) die all the time too.  I'm too cheap to own an xBox.  I've never heard even once of a PS3 die.  :P  Just saying.  And my PS2 only died after having been run for 6 whole years.  Sony is pretty awesome.   ;D

The guitars/drums die universally, I can assure you of that.

i've had my ps3 for a month, and its rlod right now. too lazy (and apathetic) to get it fixed because quite frankly, of all 3 systems, the ps3 is played the least. xbox rules all.

Great thing about PC's, if you have the knowledge to do so, you can usually fix them on your own if they seriously crash. Can't do that with Xbox/PS3 without ruining your warranty most of the time.

Example: One of my video cards decided to die after 2 years of use in this computer, I didn't have to send the entire computer away, Dell just shipped me new video cards and I swapped them out myself. If you even thought about opening your 360, Microsoft would cancel your warranty and probably fine you or something.  :D

Nah...Only if you switch a few things will they fine you. (e.g given if proper software to run wii/PS3 games-plus disk drive{s}.

More to it but just one reason they could fine you. Unless they never find out.
Hahahah!

Whenever you get the 3 rings and your warranty is expired.  Call microsoft and you'll see they're not your friends pretty quickly.
