| Dodece said: @Chark Actually I limited myself to the topic, and I only used deductive reasoning. My point being that bullshit rumors, and hyperbole aren't a substitute for facts and sound methodology. As for good conversation I hardly expect to find that in any thread I contribute to. Sometimes I am surprised, but that is seldom and fleeting. That said if you genuinely want a deep discussion on the strategy of announcements then you have to step up to the plate. In no court is vapid gossip or rhetoric a substitute for facts and a logical train of thought. As for the matter of equivalency that is straight up bullshit, and I think you know that. It is basically a bogus claim made by people who don't have any real response. I posted in the thread, and you responded, and I responded to you in kind. It wasn't incumbent on you to respond again, but you did just that, and you owe it to yourself to give me more then the canned. I know you are, but what am I crack. That is so twenty five years ago. It was immature then, and it is immature now. I know this may come as somewhat of a shock to you, but the thing I root for the most isn't a console brand, or a particular console. I am not a console warrior, and I don't blindly attack or defend a particular brand. What I root for is a good dialogue. If you are earnest in your desire that is good. If you just want to prattle then there are hundreds of users on these forums that will oblige you. While you do that I can go find another angle to the discussion that hasn't been explored, or as is often the case on these forums abused to death. |
The thing is your last post strayed off topic. This was a discussion on the position of release on these two consoles yet you go off on rumor and extrapolation. None of it relevant to what I wrote. I offered you a retort and you subjected me with a discrediting of the conversation itself. A conversation you originally partook in. You don't step up to the plate when addressed and come off as if you consider yourself above the other poster. If you spend the time to comment on hyperbole don't chastise others for doing the same.
As for leaving rumor at the wayside, that will just stifle debate. Instead of blinding your scope for reasoning by demonizing the word rumor, consider rumor synonymous with scenario. The rumor I used that the PS4 is the more powerful system is mearly one possible scenario. Playing that scenario out is what i extrapolated. If you want to disregard that, then you are in no position to have grandiose dreams of actual conversation. It is staring you in the face.
Before the PS3 everyone was nice to me :(
