Why do nintendo fans hate Xbox so much?
Termin8Anakin:
I think I know. But this is just my opinion. But I think it's because Microsoft does everything opposite than from what Nintendo does. There's the marketing, the games, the philosophy, the boss, the staff, console design, the controller, the way they do business in general.

Xbox really isn't that bad. Neither is Cube and neither is PlayStation 2. The only place Xbox is failing in is Japan, so Microsoft must do something right if Xbox is selling faster than Cube and PS2 in Europe, although Xbox is still in 2nd overall. Personally, I don't think anyone has the right to judge a console until they've played it. I know that now after along time of bashing the Cube, which I regret now. After being able to play all three consoles, I now know which are the better ones. Personally, PS2 shouldn't be #1, it should be #3. I think Xbox has the edge over Cube, but not by much.

I don't hate it by any means, I have one in fact. There are some fun games (steel batallion), and xbox live has turned out to be a somewhat decent expierence, so I don't have a lot of complaints.
If some of you guys hate Microsoft so much why don't you burn down xbox stock housings? If you want to get microsoft to leave the industry you might as well commit crimes /sarcasm

Yeah, I mean I just seem to notice alot of xbox dissing around here, and I wasn't sure what of it is serious or not. It feels more like xbox vs. gc then xbox vs. gc vs. ps2.

I don't really hate the xbox or microsoft. I buy a console based on the games available, and the Xbox just doesn't have what I'm looking for. I don't play many FPSs, and when I do it's usually because of multiplayer (with people here, not online). I don't care for playing against a ton of people I don't know, or have to get to know online. And their offline offerings are pretty crap. The only notable game is Halo (FPS, which I've played and thought "yep, it's an FPS") and possibly PD Orta, but I don't really care for rail shooters. Where are the fun action/adventure platform games, or the weird innovative games? The games coming out for Xbox don't really push the envelope; they just fit nicely into genres that are already well represented. Sure they look nice, but to me graphics are simply a bonus on top of the gameplay.
