I have seen a lot about video games here on mylot,and on television,and it made me want to start a discussion about video game systems,I am a big video game player and I do not think I could survive without video games,and my favorite system would definitely be the X-box 360,partly because me and my wife have a Halo 3 Edition X-box 360,and because it has a good game selection such as the Halo games,and you can play original X-box games on it, and I also love the wireless controller and being able to turn the system on and off without hitting the power button,and one of the biggest things I like about the X-box 360 is that all games have achievements that you can try to get,which in my opinion they add a lot to the game play,and I like the fact that you can spend hours or days,trying to get one achievement so it keeps games from getting boring,I love playing games with my wife,and also my friend and I especially like war games like Ghost Recon,and Rainbow Six,so here are my questions Which system is your favorite?Why is it your favorite?Do you like playing games with other people?or would you rather play them by yourself?What geenre of game do you like?And do you find one version of a game better than another version of the same game on a different system?I appreciate all responses I get,but I ask that everyone take this discussion seriously,and if you can not respond seriously then please do not respond,Happy Posting.

Hi Honey! I'll answer the questions you've posed. My faovrite video game system right now would have to be the wii you recently bought me for Christmas, I am really enjoying the game play and am really loving the wii fit. I think that it is my favorite for a few different reasons, one being that it's new. The other being that the games available for the wii are expansive and seem like a lot of fun with the games seeming to be more family oriented then anything. I do enjoy playing video games with other people. I love to play video games with you and I find that it can be more fun in that respect as if one of us get's stuck the other can help out, etc. I don't know that I would rather play video games by myself, I think it would have to depend on what the video game is, though if it's multi-player enabled as well I would probably say I'd like to check it out for myself first a little, before having you join in. You've done the same thing recently for Ghost Recon Advanced War Fighter 2.I enjoy the RPG genre as I like the interaction taking place in story play. Though I do enjoy fighting games as well. The only game I can think of that I've played two different versions on is Mario Kart for the n64, and the one for the wii. I enjoy playing both versions equally though we haven't played Mario Kart for the wii very much. I have also played The Sims 2 on the Game Cube and on the PC, I like the PC version in that you can have two story homes, but The Sims 2 on the game cube because of the different houses and what is required for you to do in those houses. I love you very much.

That is cool that your favorite game system would be the Wii and I am glad that you are enjoying it,and I was happy to give it to you for Christmas,I know you like the gameplay and the Wii Fit which is good exercise,and yeah the Wii has a lot of different games and it has a lot of family oriented games,and I know what you mean if you get stuck someone else can help you out,and I am glad you like playing video games with me,I know you like the RPG genre,and they can be a lot of fun,and yeah both versions of Mario Kart are fun and the differences make them unique,and keep them from getting boring,and I know both versions of The Sims 2 are fun,and both have different things about them that make them great,thanks for responding,I love you with all of my heart and soul,have a great day,good luck with all of your mylotting goals,and Happy Posting.


myLot reputation of 99/100. SomeCowgirl (8075)   ranked 50 out of 751 in playing video games  2 months ago

I would really like to Get Mario Kart for the wii as I think we would have a lot of fun playing it. Also, when we have children they can play the two different versions we have and decide which one they like. Before that though the kids your ma babysits will have something to play without getting bored whilst being here! I know the one was not highly impressed at first with our "ancient" version of mario kart! Ancient for him but definitely not for us who played those types of games when younger.


myLot reputation of 96/100. hellcowboy (4851)   ranked 1 out of 751 in playing video games  2 months ago

Yeah I agree I think we would have a lot of fun playing Mario Kart on the Wii,and when we have kids they could try both,and decide which one they like better,and which one they want to play,and when my mom brings the kids she babysits over here they will have something to do without being bored,and it might be ancient but it is still a lot of fun and it always will be,thanks for responding,I love you with all of my heart and soul,have a great day,good luck with all of your mylotting goals,and Happy Posting Baby.


myLot reputation of 99/100. SomeCowgirl (8075)   ranked 50 out of 751 in playing video games  2 months ago

Well you know I don't think it's ancient. I do want to get the wheel for the mario kart game, but I've heard that it can be difficult, and you've played with the wheel with the kid your ma babysits for and you've said it's difficult. Does anyone else think the wheel is difficult?


myLot reputation of 96/100. hellcowboy (4851)   ranked 1 out of 751 in playing video games  2 months ago

Yeah the wheel does seem more difficult but I think it is like most things where practice makes perfect,so the more we used it,the easier and more fun it would get,thanks for the comment,I love you with all of my heart and soul,have a groovy day,good luck on all of your mylotting adventures,and Happy Posting Baby.


myLot reputation of 99/100. SomeCowgirl (8075)   ranked 50 out of 751 in playing video games  2 months ago

When did you turn into shaggy dear? Lol, Groovy day? Oh well I did tell you to change it up a bit... but I am sure you know what I meant... More then just a few words! I wonder if they make covers for the wii wheels?


myLot reputation of 96/100. hellcowboy (4851)   ranked 1 out of 751 in playing video games  2 months ago

Yeah I am shaggy now,Yikes lol,and I am trying to change it,and I am not sure if they make covers for the wheel or not,but I am sure Game Stop or Wal Mart would probably have them if they dowub,thanks for commenting,I love you with all of my heart and soul,have a groovy day,good luck with all of your mylotting adventures,and Happy Posting Baby.

I'm still very much a playstation girl. I do have an xbox now but don't like it especially as I read that they scimped on the disc drive so there is a chance it will scratch all my games. sad I don't like the controller as I feel it's really heavy compared to the PS3 one. As for games I couldn't live without Little Big Planet. lol


myLot reputation of 96/100. hellcowboy (4851)   ranked 1 out of 751 in playing video games  1 month ago

That is very cool that you are a PlayStation girl and those are some really good points when it comes between the systems,and I have never heard of Little Big Planet but it sounds like it would be a really interesting game,could you tell me some about it because I am always trying to find new games to try out,thanks for responding.


myLot reputation of 92/100. Foxfire1875 (1228)   ranked 63 out of 751 in playing video games  1 month ago

Little Big Planet is a 3D side scroller, which sounds really boring but the character you play with is a little sack person and you can unlock items to customise it, also I've never seen anything like it before, it's hard to describe check out some screen shots.

You can also create your own levels, it gives you everything you need although you need to play to unlock some but the game is a lot of fun. You can then upload them and there must be thousands of user created levels to play now. Some people have used other games like Ico and Metal gear solid or movies like star wars as their themes. There is no limit to what you can create.


myLot reputation of 92/100. Foxfire1875 (1228)   ranked 63 out of 751 in playing video games  1 month ago

Reading the next post reminded me of something else that is better on the PS3, no need to change batteries in the controller. happy I don't know how long the ones in the Xbox will last and it would be typical of my luck for them to give out at a crucial part of a checkpoint save game. lol


myLot reputation of 96/100. hellcowboy (4851)   ranked 1 out of 751 in playing video games  1 month ago

The 360 my wife and I have came with a rechargeable battery pack.We do not honestly play it enough to need to worry about it,and the controller my wife uses had it's batteries in it for a long time,and even with it blinking needing batteries it juiced them for all their worth.

I loved my Nintendo Gamecube,ps One,Gameboy color. Then I heard about xbox 360. I really wanted it. Luckilly I waited long enough and the Xbox Arcade version came out and bought it. I like playing games with my brothers and sisters,we played Hunter:The Reckoning. But I play the xbox 360 by myself. I love survival horror games like Resident Evil,Condemned,Dead Rising. I also have Gears of War,Bioshock,Dark Sector and more. I hate when there are multiple versions of the same game on different platforms, I don't buy a game based on better graphics but if it has new stuff in it I would rather have that version. I like Bioshock on Xbox but I also want the PS3 version! I actually want a Wii & Playstation 3 too. But that would get expensive. I too love the wireless controller and I was freaked out when I could turn on my xbox from a few rooms over. I still bought a wired controller because I don't have the battery pack and changing batteries a lot sucks. If you turn off the rumble feature it makes it so you can have more battery life. What is your gamerscore? My score is 14000 or so. I love achievements, I wish all my old games had them.


myLot reputation of 96/100. hellcowboy (4851)   ranked 1 out of 751 in playing video games  1 month ago

That is really cool that you got what you wanted,and it is awesome to play by yourself but also play with others,and yeah that is true I like versions that have new stuff in them as well,I wish all games had them,and I only have a handful of X-box 360 games and I do not have X-box live,so my gamerscore is like three thousand something I think but I am not sure right off hand,thanks for responding.

I love just about every gaming system out there,but the Xbox 360 I don't really like.I don't like the Xbox 360 because 3 of my friends systems broke,and including 2 of mine.My favorite has to be the PS3 now that the price went down to $299.I think Sony could make a lot of money if they bought the resell rights of Halo.I love the Ps3 mainly cause they hardly ever break.Nether mine or my friends PS3 have broken,so I think the Ps3 is worth the bang for the buck.


myLot reputation of 96/100. hellcowboy (4851)   ranked 1 out of 751 in playing video games  1 month ago

Any system has the chance of breaking,and I have never had any problem with my Halo 3 Edition X-box 360,Sony would not know what to do with Halo,and PlayStation3 might not break as much,but you can not play PlayStation 2 games on it,thanks for responding.
