You misunderstand my points and to explain them again would be wasting our time. You have your issues with it and steadfast in seeing anything positive in the service. but plenty on here and around the world like the service and don't mind paying for it so please don't knock us or the excellent service just for the hell of it like certain others will continue to do so.

Multiplayer might be the main function but thats not all your paying for.

Don't know how i'll take the fee next gen though

Personally, I think your wish to drop the argument is less due to misunderstanding on my part than to inability to effectively refute my points on yours, but in any case there's certainly no rule against backing away without conceding. 

I might get more than just multiplayer, but frankly if I don't use any other benefit of Gold then yes that is all I'm paying for.  I'll admit that part of my refusal to pay for online play is that I don't do it as much as some people do, so I would be paying comparatively more per hour of play. 


Dude, that's how he is. Don't argue with him. He called me a biased fanboy troll because I didn't mention GT5 in a forza 3 thread. When I told him people get banned for mentioning another game in a specific games thread he basically told me I should have done it anyway to not look so biased. He said I always spread 360 FUD and he could only come up with one questionable post. Which was I didn't think F3 damage was realistic. And then he told me to stop cherry picking my comments when I posted 70 of my last comments showing I don't even talk about the 360.

I really got under your skin didn't I.
How do you explain the others that call you biased etc?
Looks like you're seeing things your way again. The title to the message telling me why you got banned was "been banned for calling nightsurge a douche" now it's because you mentioned a game in another games thread!?! Do you constantly lose grip on reality?
You criticised the damage graphics in forza then claimed you meant that both Forza and GT aren't realistic. without mentioning GT so I said if that was the point then you should mention GT as well or it looks like you're trolling.

Seriously are you just following me about?

 


Wow... learn 2 read.

Is it me or have people forgotten that by xbox live being charge, users don't get just features such as netflix (and facebook/twitter soon) and constant exclusive DLC, but we also get XBLA which is getting some awesome exclusive games developed for it. The designers of XBLA games see very large profits for hit games and this is only due to xbox live being a pay system. MS gets their monies and developers get to make games on the cheap and sell them to tens of millions of users. The XBLA library ALONE is worth the $4.17 a month average of Live. So ask yourself, does one less happy meal from BK, one less joint from the local hippies, or one less beer at any sporting event every month equal gaming bliss? I think so.



lol your right on that one. misread a part of it.
Guess i'm more knackered than I thought.
But you are spinning it. "He called me a biased fanboy troll because I didn't mention GT5 in a forza 3 thread." Er thats not quite how it happened. You are a biased troll. I called you biased because you said the damage in the forza vid was unrealistic and then claimed you meant GT as well but when asked why you didn't say that you cowered out of it by claiming you'd get banned. I doubt it for that.

Either way are you following me? Did I get under your skin and learn to write.



I wasn't in that thread, but if it went like this:  he criticized forza damage, you said 'but what about GT', and he said 'GT isn't realistic either but this is a forza thread not a GT thread or a forza vs. GT thread', then guess what?  He's completely right, and that isn't trolling.

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.

^ I gotta say, I have doubts that I'm the one misunderstanding things if that's an example of your reading comprehension skills.

I'd like to see the history on that exchange, but just off the top of my head I'm going to guess that he criticized forza damage, you said 'but what about GT', and he said 'GT isn't realistic either but this is a forza thread not a GT thread or a forza vs. GT thread', and guess what? If that's what happened, he's completely right, and that isn't trolling.

Nope, it wasn't even in the thread that GT was brought up. It was way after. His reason that I was being biased was because I didn't bring GT up in the thread to say it wasn't realistic either. But I acknowledge that it wasn't realistic and the reason I didn't bring GT up was because it was a Forza thread.

VCant show you the exchange as it was in PM's and he swears and insults everyone to the high heavens.



Also he bought up the forza thread not me and he bought up GT not me.

It wasn't in the thread and it didn't go like that so try again.



Also, I think it's a bit too early to be throwing up our hands and saying communication is hopeless (on our exchange), but you don't have to continue if you don't want to -- I won't claim you conceded or anything silly like that. As it stands now I think it's pretty presumptuous to say I'm the one misunderstanding things without any sort of stated argument to that effect. So far I've only been proven to overlook a couple things in this thread while you've actively misread stuff.

Overlooked a couple of things but i've actively misread stuff.

Bit slanted. I misread one post and owned up to it. Again try again.
