P-p-p-p-p *twitch* p-p-p-p-p *twitch again* a ps3? Ah well if it's for MGS4 and you ain't a sony fan then I won't snap on you. (Why won't konami give metal gear love to the 360? :/)

Why doth you hate Sony so much.

Leto 11-26-2005 02:29 PM

Fanboyism, dear chappie. It consumes and inhabits us all.

PLACEBO FTW DAVID BOWIE FTW APHEX TWIN FTW ETC.

metroixer 11-26-2005 03:11 PM

Meh meh SM. Heh SM (super metroid :P). Anyway I am getting the revolution first and then zee 360. It will be cheaper I hope.

EDIT: Oh and I hate sony for all the attention it's getting. I mean really. In my neighborhood if you don't have a ps2 (I don't) or won't get a ps3 people will call you gay. I'm serious. They come in your house. They don't see a ps3 they will be all like "OMGZOERS!! YouU Nat Hev TEh Ps2!!111! Joo ArE all of teh Gazzorz and shtuff!" If you have a GAMECUBE well let's just say it will not be pretty. I wish sony computer entertainment would burn to the ground. I hate Ken Kutaragie.

Also playstations are genuinely crap. Need for speed is good for about half an hour, after that, what's the point? What major titles does PS have going for it that make it work buying over other consoles?

If you've got a good enough PC you might as well just play PC games. Keyboard and mouse controls are much easier to use anyway.

Leto 11-26-2005 06:10 PM

Call me 'gay', (yes, yes, homosexualness, ahuh) but I quite liked the PS1. Quite a lot. Skullmonkeys, Oddworld, there was a lot of good shit going on about it. But PS2 wasn't nearly as good, the games weren't as good. Well, most. Ico and several others were good.

But saying a console is stupid because of it's games is like saying an instrument is stupid because you don't like a song played on it.

Actually Super Munch I do have a playstation. Now that was a condole there. Alas sony sincerely screwed up the PS2. Also yes I have played it and...Well it just doesen't match the PS1 IMHO.

Yeah, well, what if you DON'T have an uber PC, and DON'T have the money to buy one, and it's upgrades?

That isn't justification for blatant fanboyism.

Well then, a console is a rather tasty option.
...and don't leave out all the tasty details... The red hole, oh yes.

Well, if you can't get one now, start saving so you can afford the next cooler console in the next four years. Anway, fuck the 360, loks like a sex toy anyhow :P. I would be happy with a regular Xbox at the moment. Meh, I will proably just get some games for my cube this Christmas. Does anyone know when the revolution is supposed to come out?

metroixer 12-15-2005 08:34 AM

Revolution is somewhere about next year during the spring I think...

Statikk HDM 12-15-2005 09:21 AM

"Game. Blouses."
"Computer Blue!"
Oh, and the Playstation was the shiznite.

Icarus 12-19-2005 02:38 PM

i heard it burns out quikly so i dont think i will get the 360.

Correct. So I've heard as well. I'd rather get Halo 3 'fore I get the 360. Just for future problems. Besides, my step-dad plans ter get the 360.

Leto 12-20-2005 11:36 AM

I'mma never gets me a 'Freesixxy, I dun' need dem box with sparks-a-flyin' outta dem.

SeaRex 12-21-2005 05:30 PM

I finally received mine today.

Works just fine, except that I don't have any games to play on it... yet. I've been confined to Hexic and the demo for Joust.

Cutting-edge hardware for playing arcade games from last century. Go figure.

Kimon 12-21-2005 05:33 PM

What are you planning to ger first? Condemned?

I'll be getting the 360 sometimes next year, hopefully.

Leto 12-21-2005 06:39 PM

BUT YOU SAYS YOU NO WANT ONE KIMONS U LIE TO ME.

I'll most probably get bummed into purchasing a 360 at some point, but for the moment I shall purchase TESIV for the PC and purchase a 360 controller for use with the PC. ^_^

hey if it is to burn out, it will burn out most likely in a couple of months.

if you hate the fact of getting pi$$ed at a game do not buy PGR 3, just don'd do it.

SeaRex 12-21-2005 07:40 PM

Oh really? Considering the Xbox360 hasn't even been released for a "couple of months," it certainly is interesting that you would make that assumption. You know, because you would have to see into the future to even say that.

In actuality, the majority of Xbox360 "burn outs" happen within an hour or two of the a major gaming session.

Besides, I'm not worried. If my console dies, I'll call Xbox, and send it away for repairs. No biggie.

Software Bug 12-22-2005 04:30 AM

I have the 360 , and its working fine:p
i hope it will continue as i painted it so i have no warrenty :p

MOGG IS BEKZ NO GUD GAMZ YET

In 006, some promising releases are lining up, so that's what I'll be looking for.

Leto 12-22-2005 10:41 AM

Now they bit my anus. I am currently in the process of upgrading computer to play OB, but then there may be other good things for the Freesixxy. Agh.

Meh. If I had one, I'd hire a game called 'Wik'; it looks ok in a cutesy Gollum-esque platforming game way.

A month ago is not equal to a couple of months.

Icarus 12-24-2005 10:23 PM

i'll leave you alone Kimon, okay just try to....
never mind.

Godlesswanderer 01-17-2006 07:52 PM

Just thought I'd say (mainly because I'm bored) that I am now in the possession of an Xbox 360. So far the only games I have are Condemned: Criminal Origins and Geometry Wars.

I have to say Condemned is the scariest game I've ever played. No other game has actually ever got me jumping up off the floor and stumbling backwards onto the couch :lol:.
I have yet to get up the courage to play it alone in the dark :D.

You bastard, You beat me to saying that :(
Anyway, Condemned: Its an amazing game, Very scary, I recomend that you buy it (Considering you guys have XBox 360's) If not, make sure you get Condemned if/when you get a 360.

SeaRex 01-19-2006 01:14 PM

Quick Condemned wallpaper for you folks. If it's too wide for your monitor, you can crop down the sides since it's only negative space.

I thoroughly enjoyed Condemned.

metroixer 01-19-2006 01:17 PM

Heh prolly scare the crap out of my mo of I put that in. Is condemed really that scary? Sure don't look like it to me.

Side note: Luke I sent you pm but you don't seem to be answering it.

Godlesswanderer 01-19-2006 02:11 PM

Condemned is very, very scary. So far it's the only game EVER to actually make me jump and (as I said above), get me jumping up off the floor and stumbling backwards onto the couch. No other game before this one has been remotely scary to me. Not even any of the Silent Hill's.

It's beginning to suck though because I'm up to a part that's is pretty much impossible to get past. I've got like a centimetre of health left and I gotta kill this guy but if I get hit, even once, I'll end up dying...
On a happier note; I've racked up a good amount of achievement points from Condemned :D.

Also, I need some new games. As addicting as Geometry Wars is, I want a new non-Xbox Live Arcade game to play :).
