Get off topic to try and save face. But it doesn't change the fact that PS3 sucks. Seriously, they've made hundreds of dollars off that system. Hundreds.s13jus10 wrote:

Like I said before, all you can do is write some long *** paragraph trying to be funny and original. But the truth is, it's all the same ****. I like these little spats but you gotta come up some thing worth while, my friend. Sh1ts old.s13jus10 wrote:

how many people have you heard of have ever bought a PS3 and regretted it? none? didn't think so.. now how many people do you know have ever bought a 360 and regretted it? uhm.. how about 30-40% of the people that bought it and got diagnosed with the Red Ring syndrome.
maybe nobody's ever stolen a car from Oklahoma City because nobody's ever BEEN to Oklahoma City. maybe there is no cop hassle because the cops don't HAVE anyone to hassle. maybe there are no emissions tests because most people there don't drive cars, they drive their tractors and lawnmowers to work.
my point is, out here in good ol' sunny Southern California, where Riverside alone is easily double OK City's population, lots and lots of people own PS3s.
maybe where you live, people have only been able to collect enough tree branches and rocks to purchase a 360.
Haha Marlin is probably right...I do suck on Wii, but I was suprised that people play so well.But what is your GT or PSN ID I would like to roll with some NICOians on COD4.marlin29311 wrote:I'm not bashing him, I'm just saying that everyone on the Wii version probably sucks for the reasons he is describing, and the handful of people that figured it out can go through and destroy everyone.
And I don't need to be taught a thing or 2 in COD4 or 5 - I'm always up for a match
uhm.. when did I ever say that the PS3 is "****"? you just admitted that the 360 is "****", but I will do no such thing to the PS3. it most certainly is not ****.otterman wrote:You make one real point in that long *** tantrum. You say that 30-40% of people who bought 360s regret it. Good for you. 360 isn't any gem either. The only point you make is "At least we're not as bad as ____." "We're ****, but we're not the worst kind of ****." That's a real strong argument champ.
again, I have NO idea where you're getting this idea that "no one likes them, no one wants them". it's just you, dude. maybe out there in Nowhere-ville, Oklahoma, people don't buy PS3s. so what? that's 20-some-odd people that are missing out.otterman wrote:PS3 is still a giant flop.

Nintendo's only goal for the past couple years has been only to satisfy the "casual" crowd. there are obviously a LOT more grandmas, grandpas, and grandkids than there are hardcore-gamers. so they've quenched the former.. but what about the latter? where the hell are all the GOOD games?? who the hell gives a rat's @ss about Wii-Fit and Wii-Music?otterman wrote: Microsoft and Nintendo at least have some idea what people want.

It most certainly is ****. I don't know why you're trying to attack me with the fact that XBox and Nintendo aren't very good either. I could careless about them.s13jus10 wrote:

I usually don't take XBox's side in arguments but I will just for now. Everyone who I know that has had the 'red ring of death' (which by the way is less then half the people I know that own a XBox) has sent it in for warranty and got it back no problem. Sucks they had to deal with it but it really wasn't that big of a deal. Sent it in, got it back. No big deal. No one ever freaked out or got pissed off, maybe people are a little more relaxed. ("Oh but you only know like three people, you don't even have electricity or TVs," I got you covered on that clever little joke, don't worry )s13jus10 wrote:again, I have NO idea where you're getting this idea that "no one likes them, no one wants them". it's just you, dude. maybe out there in Nowhere-ville, Oklahoma, people don't buy PS3s. so what? that's 20-some-odd people that are missing out.
seriously though.. ask 50 people who own a PS3 if they regret the purchase at all, or have ever had any issues with the system. now take 50 people that own a 360 and ask them the same thing. you'll see where the real numbers are.... then again, you probably don't even know 50 people, living out there in Nowhere-ville
You just proved my point. Sony had to drop their prices so much that they're actually losing money, just so people would think about buying their system. Is it good a company can't figure out what people want and people will pay for? No it's not. XBox and Nintendo have pretty much nailed it on their ends. Sony's the slow kid in class.s13jus10 wrote:yes, sony is losing money for every PS3 that they sell. it costs them more money to make the system than the price that they're selling it for... but isn't that a good thing? doesn't that mean they're spending big bucks for quality hardware/design and we lucky consumers can purchase it for less than what it costs to make it? so every single person that buys a PS3 knows that they are getting their money's worth. sounds good to me
Exactly, Nintendo know how to make a good product and market it. It depends on what you call a 'good' game. If you mean fancy graphics that take your console two minutes to load and a preschool story line, then no. Wii does not have many of those. Wii does have several games (most of which are actually made by Nintendo themselves, awesome idea on their part) that you can pick up and play for any amount of time, then go do something else without feeling like you got no where. That is something most every other game has forgotten about.S13jus10 wrote:Nintendo's only goal for the past couple years has been only to satisfy the "casual" crowd. there are obviously a LOT more grandmas, grandpas, and grandkids than there are hardcore-gamers. so they've quenched the former.. but what about the latter? where the hell are all the GOOD games?? who the hell gives a rat's @ss about Wii-Fit and Wii-Music?
What are they? Is that a PC only type thing?otterman wrote:What do you guys think of those power level servers? I was looking on some COD boards and apparently people are pretty upset about them.
I guess so maybe. Whenever you get a kill you get an insane amount of xp. You can get to level 65 in like an hour or less.marlin29311 wrote:

I can talk about whatever I want. This is my thread after all. and where's the name calling at??marlin29311 wrote:Stop acting like a PS3 fanboy. Seriously. This thread is about COD5 - you want to have a PS3 / 360 war, start another thread. Cut the name calling out and talk about the game.
see, I really don't understand why people think that having all these things/capabilities in a PS3 is a BAD thing. I don't get it.marlin29311 wrote:And my 360 is a video game machine, not a web browser, video store, etc. I use it to play video games. If I want to surf the web, I have a laptop or my blackberry.

Sony's always had to pay more to make it than what it's sold for, ever since launch. it's just gotten cheaper to make it. same reason why a Blu-Ray player is no longer $1000 (circa June 2006). at launch, it cost sony about $850 to make a PS3, and they were selling it for $499 & $599. and don't talk about lowering prices and losing money, Microsoft's 360 now sits at $199. does it cost them less than that to make it? how many billions of dollars are lost repairing bricked 360s?otterman wrote:You just proved my point.

otterman wrote:The only reason I see PS3 being better then any of those consoles is because it plays Blue-Ray. But that's still not enough for it to really stand out. Sony should stick to making TVs and DVD players.

no.. you said "it's a fact that the PS3 sucks." all I'm doing is proving to you why it doesn't.otterman wrote:

To clear things up:I said no one buys PS3s, judging by their sales, you can't argue this. (Unless you want to take it as I literally ment 'no one' ... which I didn't. I think you understand this.)
Then you went on this tangent about how PS3 is so awesome.
You're a major fanboy and can't admit to the faults of Sony. You're only argument this whole time has been "Well, it's not as bad as ____."
We've ruined this thread, say what you want, fan boys of any kind piss me off, I'm ouuuuuutttttttttttttt
Never said it was a bad thing - I just don't need it. I'm more of a "each thing has its function" type of person - I don't like having everything rolled up into one...even the blackberry is a stretch for me, but I have it moreso for the calendar and email functions than I do for internet.s13jus10 wrote:see, I really don't understand why people think that having all these things/capabilities in a PS3 is a BAD thing.

so basically, let's just say a PS3 is a 360, laptop/blackberry, hometheater setup, iPod, AND a Blu-Ray player all rolled into one package.
Not starting anything, but Microsoft has been in the gaming inudstry since the mid 90's, before Sony ever was. Microsoft Game Studios released their first game in 1994 - hardware wise you are correct though.s13jus10 wrote:
Sony's been in the video game business almost a decade before MS even showed up. you don't even WANT me to pull out the list of reasons why PS3 is better than both other systems.
Any fanboy is ridiculous - I'm honestly starting to consider getting my doctorate in marketing and doing my dissertation on "fanboyism" (alright, it would be more technical than that, but you get the point) - it's really interesting how people will just cling so hard to a product and defend it at all costs against something else on the market - 360 vs. PS3, iPhone vs. Storm, PC vs. Mac, Nissan vs. Honda, etc....rcabrita wrote:The Xbox fanboys are ridiculous...
PS3 features are usless but the people @ Microsoft are geniuses because they partnered up with Netflix? Too funny. If you want Netflix grab your computer not your Xbox. Well inorder to use your Netflix on your Xbox you need to go on a computer (or PS3 ) and setup your instant watch list...So you might as well just watch it on your PC.And if you need to watch it on a TV then get an RGB cable ($14), go to Hulu.com (or an other site that plays movies) and watch for free. PS3 has all the features Xbox has plus PS3 can do much more, but the Xbox has GOW, Halo and Netflix.
Congrats Xbox fanboys
I own both and use both, but one isnt better then the other. Xbox came out first so that is what most most gamers are used to using so they feel more comfortable. Thats cool and all, but it is no need to bash the PS3.
I personally like both, but I feel PS3 is better and capable or more
That plus COD5 isn't any where near as good as COD4
