(1)  [...] if you claim that a video (or anything) is well researched then you are expected to have done enough research yourself to know what the hell you are talking about.

(2)  It's not the factual inaccuracies that make that video hilarious propaganda so much as it is the totally biased and onesided viewpoint.  Case in point:  the data transfer rate comment I pointed out earlier.  For another example look at the comparisons of the 360's positive aspects and the PS3's.  The former has a feature list with comments to the effect that they suck, and leaving off the optional stuff (the price is for the most expensive model, of course); later it gets game lists with only a couple of games on them.  The latter's feature list comes with praising comments and the optional stuff and yet quoting the price of the model that doesn't have it! (with note); and later, game lists of the "kitchen sink" variety.

(3)  That may well be true.  Converts to a cause (360 hate / PS3 love) are often among its most devoted or fanatical followers.

(4)  Would you really?  I hear they're not too hard to find.  Unless you're waiting for your buddy to make one, in which case it'd be a bad idea to hold your breath.  
I have been researching my facts, the only thing I really didnt know about was the transfer rates, but the director of the video also quoted some of the wrong material ie price on 80 gig. I figured, why would I want to learn about transfer rates? I mean as long as the game plays, it shouldnt matter. Quite frankly, I am starting to feel like this whole website it full of fanboys who have nothing better to do, but bash other peoples opinions just because they have a preference of a piece of hardware. All I ask is that you please stop taking these threads personally and turn on your ps/wii/60, and have fun...Make piece not war ;)

 ps
Im sorry I hurt your feelings sir...lol
Well, actually I would have to say that you do NOT appear to have researched the facts or you would have noticed that THE VIDEO ITSELF points out that the $399 price is for the version WITHOUT some of the stuff on the list. i.e. NOT the 80GB version. (Unless he talks about price somewhere other than the "Price" section that I forgot about? In any case it doesn't matter since that IS the part I was referring to in the post you replied to.)

And speaking of "fanboys", I forgot to mention the hilarious part of the video where he shows an ad that has the PS3 between a naked woman's legs as proof it's sexy. At least I assume it's a PS3 ad, I guess your friend could have photoshopped it. We don't have any problem with conflicting opinions (at least most of us); but when you go from simply having an opinion to making assertions of fact that are bullshit or lies, then we have every reason to object. And one purpose of a debate is also to put conflicting opinions against each other and see which one is better supported, so you might be mistaking debate for "bashing" if one of those opinions turns out to be poorly supported.

Still, good sentiment from you at the end there (though you misspelled peace). I don't take it personally; but when I see the truth being misrepresented I do take it seriously.

P.S. I have no idea what you mean by that. What gave you the impression that my feelings were hurt by you or anyone else in this thread?
lol, you got me... I was not an English Major
Hey, no hard feelings.  I just have a need to correct misspellings.  Please respond to the actual substance of my reply now -- or does the lack of such indicate total agreement?

My advice to fanboys: Brag about stuff that's true, not about stuff that's false. Predict stuff that's likely, not stuff that's unlikely. You will be happier, and we will be happier.
