Shall i get a PS3?

I think the screaming american kids .... brings down the 360 community

No american kids play PS3s then? You don't get obnoxious UK kids? How about french or german, australian, Canadian?
All American kids are screaming nightmares? There are no plonkers/griefers online with the PS3?

Nice sweeping generalisations there! I've clearly missed out on the idilic PS3 online world ;)

Of course if you have enough friends with Live you don't have to play with pick up groups. Maybe that's why I don't see it, i've built up a regular community of people I enjoy playing online with. I guess you've not used the reputation system on Live to avoid pillocks then? :p

Much like your own .... and I had a 360 for two years ..... played 100's of hours on live, please! I know the community on live.

Of course there are idiots on psn ....... a lot less than 360 ( probably to do with userbase ) and the fact that ps3 costs more then, less little kids have one.

If you say so - i'd love to see anything that backs that up though. Perhaps you just attract pillocks*, I have to say the online community I see on Live is good, with the pillocks quickly flagged by the reputation system.


*Edit* *that was a bit harsh... I take it back :)

Clearly you've not taken the time to read my posts, in almost all of them i've been complementary to the PS3 and acknowledged it's superiority in lots of areas.

Thanks for the pointless contribution to the discussion though...

Thats not the problem though is it, you've taken the time to be complementary to the PS3 but taken no time to take on board anyones else's opinions other than your own, you just keep repeating yourself spouting out your nonsense.

Like I say, you've clearly not read my posts where i've agreed with peoples points about the PVR & tuner, hard drive, media cards, looks, noise, reliability and a load of other things.

If you're going to take a pop at me without even contributing to the debate at least do me the courtesy of reading the posts first. :rolleyes:

I've read the posts, and how can I take anyone seriously criticising the media capabilities on the PS3 when they haven't even done their research properly, your opening post was barely valid if you knew that the PVR tuner was coming out, its the same old crap on here as usual, one man believes 360 is the roxers!!!11!oNe!!1 and doesn't want to let go until everyone agrees with him, what initially made me mad though was this,

I don't mean to be rude but you come across as both ill informed and a bit of a fanboy to be honest.


Instead of coming across as rude fanboy repeating the Sony party line try opening your mind about this >....< much and we can have a, usefull, interesting conversation.

someone counters your original post and you come out with that /\, regardless of whether that person was incorrect or not they don't deserve that tbh and it certainly doesn't start you off on a good footing on here, you don't take the time counter his post or explain were he could be wrong, instead you are insulting.

Also if you actually took the time to read all he posts on this thread before stomping in with your size nines you would've seen that I've already contributed by answering the original posters questions, and not turning this into a fan-boy war.

I think you need to go take some time out, you're clearly angry and not taking the time to read what people have written, even in the post you mention I specifically pointed out where I thought the poster was wrong. Selectively quoting discussions long since agreed on does nothing for your credability. It seems you're not able to actually follow a full conversation to the point where I and the poster apologised and agreed to differ on good terms.

You so far have clearly not read the threads and decided to jump in "with size 9s" at the last minute to be rude and stir up trouble long since settled. Like I say, thanks for the useful contribution :eek:

I'm sorry if making any inference that your PS3 is not the worlds most perfect console has upset you. Do you work for Sony? You seem to be taking things very personaly...

Dude, His comments aren't anything to do with the PS3 or Sony. It's the way you are coming across as quite nasty! for no reason. Do you not find it strange how he has picked up on exactly what i picked up on?

Take a step back, and look. Maybe you are infact in the wrong here

I thought we settled this, your initial post wasn't exactly polite and smileys don't really change anything having set the tone. I made one post back at you where I was less than tactful. I apologised if I was rude to you. If you can't accept that then /shrug

I'm afraid his posts were about Sony and 360. He rants that I don't take anyone elses opinion on board where clearly my posts do if he'd bothered to read.

At the end of the day he moaned I was rude when I'd already apologiesd to you so it was old news, and then states a bunch of stuff attacking me which was completely inaccurate. Jeeze, is this the "anyone who says anything other than the PS3 is the greatest console of all time will be shouted at" thread? Lowriders posts at me were of the normal internet lazy "me too" jump on the bandwagon and let's not actually bother following the discussion or let the truth get in the way type.

I really don't see the point of a debate or discussion here if all you're looking for is to agreed with.

Ok guys got some money burning a hole in my pocket and have the urge to spend...(even though i probably shouldnt).

Anyway, is it a good time to get a PS3? i see most deals have GT5:P with the console.. however are there any good deals out there?

Also, are sony going to be releasing a new revision of the PS3 anytime soon, ie one with more usb ports and a larger HDD ?? Is there going to be a GTAIV pack at all?

I have a 360 and am thinking of trading in some old crappy games and getting GTA IV on the 360...but i might want to get it on the PS3 if its any better on the PS3.. decisions decisions!!!

Help me decide!
Sometimes you just have to take the plunge - go for it ;)
 
/hugs both the PS3 and Xbox 360.

I love watching these threads. How there is always an insult hidden behind a LOL, or how an intelligent debate gets taken down to personal insults...

Seriously, they are consoles - buy both of them if you can, if you can't, then get the one that appeals to you the most.

I own both, and love both equally. Things bug me about both, I love things about both. In the end, while others who hate (insert whatever console / company for whatever silly reason) are yelling about how much that console sucks compared to their fav one, I will be jumping back and forth between both consoles, and in 6 months time, will be happily playing Gears Of War 2, and probsbly re completing MGS4 too :P

I'm just emphasising your attitude, thats the problem, the first person to counter your post gets insulted, thats the facts.

Do your research before coming on here and dictating to people the media capabilities of the PS3.

Well, As I've previously said. The way you took my post, and it's actual content and context were 2 different things in this case.

I've posted on here a lot, and there's always tongue in the cheek, and joking. And it's pretty well known that a smiley and a sticking out tongue points to a light topic.

I have not insulted you though, all i did do, was get 1 piece of information wrong.

I did say I couldn't be bothered with arguing all your points, that isn't nasty or insulting, and I did delete some comments i made from my initial post, because of the way some people react to bad points made about the 360, For instance the RROD. Those are things I removed.

None of that warrants your return!

I did accept your apology, Because you were in the wrong. But if you note after the apology, You then took a sly stab at me. Take a look. You'll find it.

And sly stabs, As far as I'm concerned are quite childish, considering you had just apologized.


-
Anyways, This is kinda getting way OT, and kinda out of hand. So i'll leave it there. Feel free to counter me, as I'm sure you will. But I've had my say
