Dude, people are ****ing *******ses I always get into arguments and fistfights cause people say dumb **** like "Zelda is about an elf boy with a fairy". You don't know how many times I've ****ed somebody up for saying that. Halo and CoD are so freaking repetitive it's not even fun for maybe a few hours online. Then, people are like no you just suck. Then I whoop there *** and take their money at the game mentioned. I hate *******. To the guys who play nothing but FPS they think Nintendo=Children. The Wii is better than the 360.
Ooooooooooookay...
Anyway, I disagree about the Wii > 360. 360 has got videos, movies, better online system, more hardcore approach and arguably a better controller for hardcore gaming. All of the games on Wii are either shovelware or sequels to their previous games (not saying that's a bad thing, just lack of new & interesting content. 360 also has connectivity with the PC, indisputably the greatest gaming and entertainment system in existence.

I'm like totally ignoring LuigiToilet the nickname LT has been revoked.

@Shimazu. Thank god you understand where I am coming from. Nintendo has Mario, Zelda, Metroid, Donkey Kong, Pokemon, Earthbound, Super Smash Bros., Fire Emblem, Wario Ware, F-Zero, etc.

While the Xbox only has Halo, Assasin's Creed, Skate, Gears of War, Left 4 Dead. I can't think of anything else.

Sony has God of War, Killzone, Little Big Planet, Ratchet and Clank.
Donkey Kong hasn't been good since the Country games. The Mother franchise has finished. Wario Ware isn't really that iconic... And F-Zero hasn't had a new title since the GCN.

Also, Quality > Quantity. I'd rather play Assassin's Creed than Wario Ware, and it is arguably the better game (keeping in mind everything I say is from a "hardcore" gamer point of view).

This is coming from someone who loves Zelda and Smash Bros to death, who's first console was a N64, followed by a GCN, then a GBC, then a DS and then a Wii, and who doesn't even own a XBox 360, let alone the original XBox.

No, I agree the better console period is the Xbox 360. The better gaming system is the Wii. I am going to leave it at that unless you want to debate, not argue, but debate, over which system is better.

Oh same here. I have never played Wario Ware a day in my life. It's just one of those big franchises that Nintendo has so I had to drop its name. I have yet to play Assassin's Creed but I am definitely with you on that.

And, as for Quality over Quantity. Go in depth with that I didn't get your point.

Again, we are debating not arguing. Your opinion may not change. My opinion may not change we respect each others opinions. I just want to make that clear cause some people were arguing over which Zelda game was better in another thread. <_<

Hmm... That's a tough call. Both systems have a lot of great games, and Nintendo has the whole "Wiimote" gimmick going for it. I'll have to think on that.

Assassin's Creed is awesome, a bit easy, but worth the money.

Oh sorry, I was talking about how Nintendo has a lot of franchises, but they aren't all necessary "worthy of mention" when trying to think of reasons the Wii is better than the 360 for gaming. For example, imo, I haven't seen a good DK game since the Country series. Star Fox is also declining in quality, Command was alright but nothing tops 64. And WarioWare isn't that great a franchise, good for a bit, but gets boring easily. So I was basically trying to say that while Nintendo has lots of games/franchises, they aren't all that great.

Again, we are debating not arguing. Your opinion may not change. My opinion may not change we respect each others opinions. I just want to make that clear cause some people were arguing over which Zelda game was better in another thread. <_<

Haha, that was me in that other thread. And we were debating... Just in a very unscivilized manner... :laugh: Like I said though, it's a tough call which system is better for gaming, I'm gonna have to think about it to wether I agree with you or not.

I really didn't have to go far into this thread to start agreeing with what I was seeing.

It's true, I believe a good majority of the games on the list (and some not on there) deserve to be higher than the top two.

I would guess this poll was based upon hype. You can't really go out into the world and take a poll on this. Granted, you have to make sure these people have played a wide variety of games. I bet they did not take the time and research to make sure these "players" had played a wide variety of games, series, consoles, whatever. It seems most of them probably had just an X-box.

I myself only have Nintendo systems, so maybe I'm talking out my a** here, but I go out and play all types of games. My friends have the PS3's and X-boxes I refuse to own, and I have a good computer to play a ton of good games on it, and I can personally say, a great majority of series deserve a higher place.

Really, this article is just plain ignorance to what is actually there, and favors what people outside the gaming community expect to hear.

The actual people who do reviews, play all the games, and claim are the experts of the industry should be the ones who decide what is really the best out there.

No one can say what the "best" game is. Opinion is too important in such as situation. The only way a fair poll could be conducted is if it was based on a static figure such as file-size, sound quality, etc...
