Message: [QUOTE="ohcalypsoh, post: 214513, member: 211639"] I've never been a console/pc loyalist, and I was privileged enough to have parents who would eventually buy me all the consoles when I was a kid while also having a PC they'd let me play games on, so I played a little of everything in both the 6th and 7th gens including PC games of those eras. First console I got was the 360 simply because it released first, though I ended up having a problem with it (it was a non-RROD issue, forget exactly what it was) that required them providing another unit as would happen with RROD. I knew my uncle went through about 5 RROD 360s, and IIRC I looked up the manufacturing date or specific model or something along those lines of the new console I got and whatever source I looked at had it specifically marked as RROD prone, so I decided to go sell the console and games and get a PS3. Initially wasn't as enthused by the PS3 in terms of UI or library, but I stuck with it and it grew on me immensely over time. My old fat PS3 lasted me until just a few years ago too despite having played it pretty regularly all these years. Got me one of those ps3 slims with the sliding top door, and I'm still playing games on it, working my way through the sega genesis collection & replaying dragon age origins/dragon age II. At this point I'm pretty fine with having the PS3 as my preferred console for that gen, though xbox 360 live was my introduction to online multiplayer so I have a lot of nostalgia for that and the early 360's UI. The graphics jump from playing on ps2/xbox/gamecube to 360 was the last time that aspect of games evolution actually excited me, too. Oblivion totally blew my mind back then. [/QUOTE]
