hey guys, wanna read something funny? look for the thread where this biased fanboy is trying to compare the £200++ Vita to a £500++ cellphone... keeps claiming that the Vita's power has been beaten by a mobile phone, that is "gasp"! over £500++ ahahahahaha! people just loves to keep spinning the wheel.


I actually don't mind him making the comparison.  It's the fact that in that thread, he's comparing the price of the Vita to the price of the iPhone because "you'll always have a contract so it's just accepted", with posts like this:

I'm not quite sure what he doesn't understand about contracts.  For example, when I got my iPhone 3GS, I paid a lump sum of something like £100 up front, and then £35 a month fixed contract for 18 months.  Once the contract was up, I switched to my current plan which is £10 a month for the same amount of minutes, texts and 3G limits.

So basically, I paid £100 + 18 x £25 = £550 for the phone on it's own.

Compare that to a £200 one-off payment for a Vita (+ a memory card these days I guess, but still), there's just no contest.

there are comparisons, and there are comparisons but his is just plain ignorant. How do you justify comparing something that is $200+ to a new thing that will cost almost or more that twice that? its like saying, hey my new "porch" can run circiles around your 6 month old toyota altis.. or something like that. obviously, higher cost = higher specs = better as compared to lower cost = lower specs = inferior.

Some people will just try and twist and turn things to suit their agenda. Also, one time payment vs comparable upfront payment + monthly for 12-24 months = not the same.

honestly, some people here are just so full of themselves. its just so obvious as how blatantly biased these guys are. like I said, they just keep on turning the wheel and spinning things around.

to tell you the truth, the only reason i dislike the MS and Nintendo are because of these lame ass fanboys. take these people away and I'd actually like MS and Nintendo.

Anyways, I'm off topic so..... how much will LBPV be anyways? I had $51.5+ on my PSN account but spent $2.49 on the streetfighter table for zen pinball two. So I'm left with $49.++ but less than $49.50 (too lazy to do the math). I'm thinking of spending just enough so that i'm left with $35 for LBPV. Or do yhou guys think it will be $40? coz i'll be left with just under $10 to spend on other games (too bad there isnt any other vita game for under $10 that I dont have already)

FFVII is out of the question as it cost $9.99...and I dont feel like replaying it..I've already wasted over 400hours of my life on it back in the day. No xenogears, PE, PE2 or any other good psone games i want...hmm... SCEA just plain sucks. VC2...hellllooooo.... SCEA..... when you gonna put it in the Vita store? bunch of morrons.

ungh..guy cant get a break, if its not rabid biased fanboys, its SCEA themselves that cause me pain and heartache. might as well go buy a second psp and install 6.60 pro-B10 or something on it and just cram it full of cso games. that'll teach you SCEA, bunch of lazy, incompetent bastards.
