@stof: I still like you.   *gets evil look by everyone but stof, but doesn´t care*

Yeah polls much like democracy will never work. The questions are a little missleading anyway, just because you have five or more blue-rays does´t mean you play with your PS3 less than enybody else.

 

Oh any I do most everything in my Ferrari... well I pretty much have to since I sould my house and family to get one, btw good luck reselling those vietnamese mafia, jokes on you suckers.

I use my ferrari to look cool, I dont even use it that much, it uses so much gasoline its not even funny. If I sold it, I would have money to buy gas... but then again what would I need gas for? Damn those life ruining ferraris.

On topic: FishyJoe how much isthat bridge? Will I be able to charge a toll fo everyone that goes trough it?

[/sarcasm]



Ferraris? Why not a Veyron poll? That way I could vote.



I don't own a PS3, but I just went over to the poll and voted for "DVD only" because that was the funniest / most ironic answer. That's what I base my response on for every internet poll. You might as well have fun with them, it's not like they have any actual usefulness or scientific validity.



We don't provide the 'easy to program for' console that they [developers] want, because 'easy to program for' means that anybody will be able to take advantage of pretty much what the hardware can do, so the question is what do you do for the rest of the nine and half years? It's a learning process. - SCEI president Kaz Hirai

It's a virus where you buy it and you play it with your friends and they're like, "Oh my God that's so cool, I'm gonna go buy it." So you stop playing it after two months, but they buy it and they stop playing it after two months but they've showed it to someone else who then go out and buy it and so on. Everyone I know bought one and nobody turns it on. - Epic Games president Mike Capps

We have a real culture of thrift. The goal that I had in bringing a lot of the packaged goods folks into Activision about 10 years ago was to take all the fun out of making video games. - Activision CEO Bobby Kotick

 

When was the PS3 poll, cause I've been away for most of August

But don't you think voting in the PS3 poll is kinda wrong? Your bias against blu-ray is already apparent in that you don't have a PS3 to begin with. I'm biased against it too and I agree that I want the format to fail as well, because my DVD collection is finally getting filled out. And that's why we should stay away from a poll like that. It wasn't made for us. By voting in it all you are doing is sabatoging (Spelling?) it. Yes you can do it. Is it mature or right, I'm not so sure. At first when I opened this thread I thought Ckmlb was overreacting. Now I know this isn't true. For once in my life I find myself defending him. Crazy. So I owed you thanks for that. I applaud you.

 Even if I had a PS3 I would still have the same exact bias against HD formats and to me that's what the poll is about.  I really don't want Bluray specifically to fail, I just want one of them to fail.  Sabotaging the poll would be going into the poll with the specific goal in mind to skew the results in one particular way, what I did was simply vote my opinion.  Personally, I think buying as a console even as a DVD player is pretty silly and buying one for an HD player is just as silly.  That's my personal opinion and that's all the poll is asking.

I think I could be a PS3 one day when it gets the games I like and the price comes down, but until then I'm only a potential buyer and that more than qualifies me for this poll.  There was no troll intention in my vote, I didn't want to skew results, I wasn't venting some sort of perceived anger at the PS3, I was just doing what polls are made for: expressing my opinion.



I will eventually use it for blu-ray but I pretty much stopped purchasing DVDs because I realized I wasn't watching a majority of them. Besides that, the rental place in my area doesn't have any HD movies and Blockbuster is out of the way. About the only things I buy on DVD these days are tv shows which means Lost, Heroes, & The Office. I will get the Lost blu-ray and I'm waiting to get the Heroes HD-DVD until I get a dedicated player.



To cash in my CC rewards points for $300 in Circuit City gift cards to purchase a 360 or not: That is the question.

I don't own one and I voted. I pretty much assumed what I would do if I did have one which was pretty easy to do since I absolutely refuse to buy into an HD format until one of the two die (don't care which).

Thanks Twesterm. Thanks for proving that this thread needed to be created.

It's pretty simple people. Only vote if the poll applies to you. And only vote once, regardless of how many alter-egos you have made. Otherwise these polls will just become meaningless and a waste of front page space.


Dude, it is an internet poll. 

But that doesn't make it a "waste of space" it provides entertainment.  If you rely on it for anything beyond that, that's your fault not twesterm's.

 

And if this thread had not been created, I would never have noticed the poll or voted.

You know, the poll should really have had option "i don't own a PS3". Go ahead, blame twesterm for the results, but the real reason was that people wanted to vote and they chose the option that fits for them.
It would be stupid to think that in a poll, open to everyone, people "to who it wasn't meant to" wouldn't vote.
Besides, anyway you look at it, twesterm is right. It's not his fault that the poll had stupid options or missed one important option.

And about cklmb, he has his opinions, which he states as cklmb the forum member, not as cklmb the forum mod, and i don't see any problem with that. Are we now going to start arguing about this site having PS3 bias because of its mods?
