Man ps3 fanboys have been really active havent they. Man the wii bashing continues.

w/e I have a 360 but i appreciatate all consoles.

You got it all wrong. It's the Wii-boys who are bashing us PS3 fans. When we bash the Wii, we get banned. It's that simple.


I've seen evidence of both sides in this thread, no need to be rude.

Bet with disolitude: Left4Dead will have a higher Metacritic rating than Project Origin, 3 months after the second game's release.  (hasn't been 3 months but it looks like I won :-p )

Real life controls? That's a nice idea.

In real life, I am crap at tennis: I have a weak swing, poor coordination and get tired easily. In Wii-al life, I can play tennis quite competently with my feet.

Seriously though, proper gamers love it for games like Zelda, SMG and Metroid. The muppets that make up the lion's share of all console sales like it because when they wave their arms about, things move on screen. Wii Sports is the new Pong.


I hope you do realize that swinging a remote is light years ahead of pushing a button as far as realism goes.  It may not be perfect "real life controls", but it's far and above the other options available.  Anyone that wants to complain about the industry shifting to more realism is going to get left behind.  The focus of the gaming industry is going to be on alternative types of inputs from this generation forward.

It's the truth, and you know it. If I criticized the Wii, Nintendo, or Mario Galaxy, what's going to happen to me?

 Uh, some people would likely argue with you?  You can criticize all you want.  The stupid, annoying, disruptive people are the ones that get banned...if you're reasonable, you can criticize anything you want.

Victor seems a lot like Leo-j to me, both fixated on the EyeToy and both extremely unpredictable and random.



To Each Man, Responsibility

What exactly are you trying to say, Sqrl? Are you looking to get him banned? He isn't even doing anything to you. Leave the guy alone.



Let me list the most offensive or trollish posts in this thread that I find immediately, for grandmaster's sake. I shall list them in the order they appear, the order is important after all:

grandmaster192 (01/05/08, 00:53): It's the only console that plays Nintendo's games. That's what makes it good. Other than that it worthless. (Yeah that's trolling)

Neos (01/05/08, 01:13): Give credit to Sony? Not in this millenium. (Yeah, pretty much trolling)

mancandy (01/05/08, 01:13): Eyetoy? Now that thing is a fad. (that's trollish)

finalsquall (01/05/08, 01:37): My brother in law got a Wii for xmas... It's still in the box. lol (trolling, might be more of a joke?)

ItsaMii (01/05/08, 01:44): Lol that is funny. Recently, my parents bought something that looked like a PS3. Taking a closer look at the kitchen I realized it was a George Foreman grill. LOL. (Said in response to the comment above, more of a joke, still trolling though)

SkyRender (01/05/08, 01:58): http://www.freakware.de/news/ps3-grill.jpg This was your standard "obligatory link to old comedy image of PS3 being compared to George Forman girll" post. Thank you for reading. (supplies pic for above comment, helping trolling)

Ok, so, for punishable offenses, I see 4, maybe 6 posts here. Honestly, the whole Wii still in a box along with the following PS3 grill joke pretty much cancels themselves out...who really cares, just harmless kidding. The only real trolling here was you grandmaster, Neos, and mancandy. You against Nintendo, those 2 against Sony. Not everybody trolls against Sony, and everybody's accountable, Nintendo and Sony haters alike. Get over it.

I thought Sony fanboys stopped playing the victim card while simulatenously trolling the forums. Even since Leo-j's trolling ass got banned they've been particularly rowdy. I guess it presented the cold hard facts that even the most rolling fanboys eat the ban boot once in awhile.



Tag - "No trolling on my watch!"

My post was trolling?

You're kidding, right? I sure hope so. Because if something that petty and harmless is trolling, I'm going to be kicked off this site permenantly.
