1) And yet the moment I pointed out everything that people bitch about the Wii also applies to the HD console, a whole bunch of people jumped up to whine bitch and complain? That's not a general butthurt behavior? News to me.

That is STILL a terrible analogy. ISPs sell a service, game consoles are not.

1) Probably because this thread wasn't for what you did. If this was rate the HD consoles then you would be facing less resistance for instance. Its like you think we don't believe it doesn't apply to the HD consoles or something.

2) ISP sells a service, and manufacturers sell consoles. The service that the ISP supplied can be criticized, just like the game console supplied by the manufacturer. I don't see how that's a bad analogy.

Edit: I have seen you point out stuff like "HD owners making fun of wii owners". How is that so? It definitely wasn't in this thread. Pointing out the negative in a particular product is not equal to making fun of its owners.

An HD owner clearly bashing the Wii in a thread about the Wii. I point out the hipocrisy in the bashing, and HD owners start getting butthurt.

If you can't see the difference between a service and a product, then we have deeper problems with your understanding than I thought. Your best bet is proably an analogy to cars, but even that is bad because there are clearly different purposes for different classes of car. Meanwhile consoles really are made to have games played on them.

Edit: That's in general, not specific to this thread.

i'd like to agree with you and say that pc gaming is better in every way but i'm not the kind of guy to spend 1000s on a gaming pc only to have to spend even more every few months on upgrades that at the end of the day are still comparable visually for the most part to what consoles provide... but whatever thats just me...


The ignorance is strong with this one.


lol i guess thats why games such as uncharted 3 and gears 3 get compared to pc visuals all the time...

i mean thats not to say that consoles can achieve what even a mid range pc can, but to imply as you have that the difference between wii visuals and HD visuals is the same as the difference between HD visuals and pc visuals is nonsensical imo...
