First off, Gears of War and God of War mods.
Gears is for PC and a basic TCM of UT3 that is both as moddable and playable. Modding Xbox version would be a garbage waste of time considering you have to watch your frames 10X more because YOU CANT LEGALLY UPGRADE YOUR XBOX HARDWARE. Also I believe Xbox is a garbage system and a very unoriginal waste of time and money profiting the monster that is Microsoft.
God of War. If it could be modded... What usefulness could be added? What does it need? Nothing. The only mods that would be brought to light would be useless skins and variant weaponry that is worse then those currently present. Its all sequenced so all that could really be done is mapping, but even then the time it would take to use a custom engine that really didn't have a map editor would probably end in horrid maps that just look bad and are made either far too easy or far too hard for any God of War player. Its a good game but lets leave it as a game and not a mod-able interface kthxbai.
I love how half the voters for Modding Consoles just reply with, "It would be cool" and such. Then you check their profiles AND NONE OF THEM ARE MODDERS. WTF is up with that?! People don't realize that systems like the Xbox (Sorry for bashing it to hell and back but I just can't stand its overrated-ness) have limited hardware and are basically mediocre computers jam-packed into a fat box that has nothing more to offer you then a ring of death. The PS3 actually came up with custom hardware that even PCs don't use and also has free internet, as well as modding capability via the PC as well as CUSTOM games that don't make it to any other system. Every shooter that makes it on the Xbox makes it on the PC, oh boy. The Wii is at least original and can be very good but for FPS the makers need to rethink a little. It needs a GoldenEye style play where you don't default-ly strafe and need to hold a button to do so, that would at least make the shooters playable.
Lastly, consoles were made to be played the way the makers wanted them too. PC's were made to advanced technology (not ironic at all). Lets try not to kill our warranties by befuddling our consoles hardware then hmm? Its surprising to see a modding website filled with unexplained comments by underaged console gamers instead of at least a notion to why.
As a Great North-Eastern Canadian once said. Eh?
I agree. Altho thoes console gamers bash the PC... if it wernt for the PC they wouldnt have their crappy Xbox 180. I mean, what made Halo 3? Hmm... let me think... IDK, a PC?! Consoles are just ment as a "cheeper" alternivtive to gameing... yet it gets all the love and most of the good games... Show some love to the PC!
SOME consoles are a cheap alternative, but the good ones are seperate entirely. A console should be unique and make use of itself instead of a PC. The XBox is essence IS a medium PC, packed into a box. The PS3 at least tries to be original, and usually does pretty well. The wii is entirely different, and games on it won't hit any other console but the PS2.
Considering the cost of the console + 60 dollars minimum for any new release, it isn't a cheap alternative at all.
