Why can't we just unite?

Well, we can't really do it because people have the want to be different. And to argue. If everyone joined together, there would be no one to really have a good battle with either by speaking or playing, to defend one's honor, console, or just about anything else people like.

However, if this were to happen, then there is the possibility of the greatest machine ever. It would take the PS3's graphics, the X-Box 360's content, the Wii's... ummm... scrath that, Nintendo's longevity and capability to keep with the times (mostly), and the PC's multiplayer convenience and its easy controls, then the United Gamers would positively form (You fill in other game parts I forgot).

Admit it pc users. You must be tired of switching hardware every time there is a new game :D
No. Every few years I can spend up to a couple hundred pounds on maybe a new CPU, stick of RAM, graphics card or occasionally a new motherboard (thank the lord for socket AM2+). I enjoy installing them and having the feeling that my PC is something I've created, and it's growing with me.

I hope some day all consoles will be one that the major console makers will build the ultimate gaming machine.

it just pisses me off when people online are just such terrible sports about it
one of my best friends owns a PS3, and while we've had some brief debates about the features of each console, in the end we still enjoy the best of both worlds
but honestly, it would be so much more fun if we could play games cross-platform haha

the Wii...heh
well okay, I'll say that while it's no good as a regular gaming console, admittedly it's definitely a fun toy to have around when half the room is filled with girls...they really dig it o.0

Because people's egos get in the way. Everyone will insist we unite on their console. Competition is a good thing anyways.

It does not work like that.
The fanboys are immature and stubborn.

Welcome to The Escapist by the way :)

MuahahahHAHAHAHAH! AHAAAAHAHAHAHAAHH! *lightning and thunder* *snicker(s Oo)*

...or you could all realize that PC-gamers are indeed the master race and throw your consoles out the window! Huzzah! I might be getting a console. I'd like an Xbox cause I like the controlers better, but I'd like a PS3 cause my friends has PS3s >>. I have an Xbox controller for my PC, SO much better to deal with than the PS3 one.
Lightning? Thunder? Are you Thor?

Better yet, let's stop this absurd, pointless arguing. Every console has their own strengths and weaknesses. That goes for PC as well. Hell, when I go back home I might get a PS3 and a decent gaming PC. Nothing wrong with enjoying both worlds.

Yes, you dirty console peasants, bow before the glory that is the PC! It's true, the PC is superior in all ways, except a certain difficulty when it comes to optimizing for all the different configurations. No, that wasn't sarcasm, no console can compete with PCs. Sayeth the dude with naught but a single laptop for gaming...
No one wants to play video games on laptops! Fools! Thou shalt honor thy stationary gamer-PC. Worship thy PC as tho it was a gift from the gods themselves!
Verily, I have sinned. Oh ye Gods of Gaming, send this wretched sinner $2000, so that I may build a shrine to thee in repentance! (and also release RDR for PC, that would be awesome)

I would be sad. All the irrevelant fan-boy bickering over those smelly consoles is quite an enjoyable sight to see from my position of sitting high on my perch with my lovely PC ^_^

Welcome to The Escapist!

I used to post the official Escapist welcome message... but then I got old and decided to stop :p

OT: I like to think that we briefly did, actually, during the March Mayhem shenanigan's with Valve vs. Zynga... at that point, pretty much every hardcore gamer (including those who didn't like Valve!) on this site just turned around and said "no." when Zynga looked like it was going to tare its way through to the finals... That was an epic moment :p

Plus, the fact that Valve beat them meant that I was able to acquire the sweet "I just had a feeling" badge cause I guessed the victor right XP

DAM YOU DELL FOR MAKING CRAPPY G-CARDS!!!
Don't you mean "or be like me and be able to AFFORD both..."? I barely survive on what I earn, leave me alone >>. Ok, so its not that bad. But I do struggle to pay rent and have enough to get trough the month.
Did you not notice that i have a DELL? This laptop cost 600 bucks, and i have since had to put a new harddrive in it, because the old one died. I also saved my money for months b4 i was able to buy it, but i wish i had gone with something besides the Inspiron 1525...

I'm fine with uniting, but against the Wii? Why not unite against something that absolutely fails on all accounts of being good, you know what I mean... the iPad!
