weaksauce. since you ladies love to argue and bitch, find your way to the politics section or something. take a stab at not sounding like a broken record.

jim

btw - i have yet to spend more than 25 bucks on any BR movie, brand new, off the shelf. unless you count Planet Earth. MSRP doesn't mean shit.

exactly. and it's not the hardware that isnt up to standards.. it's the software and marketing.

but again i would ask you, how does the PS3 directly affect you?

besides, you shouldn't need any help because consoles don't have much bearing on PC gaming AND according to you guys, the 360 is pwning everything in terms of awesome games.

the ps3 affects me because if it were better i wouldn't have to spend 30 bucks a year on live, i wouldnt have to spend 200 bucks on a 120gb hard drive, etc, etc

competition is good. ..except when the competition is a joke

You can't just go out and buy a SATA HDD from Newegg for the 360?

But they are still selling

Plus, to change the HDD, you don't have to take the whole case apart (like you do for a PS3)... it just pops off the end. Proprietary... its the Microsoft way.

it's not a flaw, it's designed to make them more money.

oh i see, so things that sell could never be flawed by design huh? if something sells, there is never ANYTHING wrong with it, it's perfect.

depends on your stance. to someone who wants to undo a few screws and spend less than 100 bucks on a 500gb hard drive, it's a flaw.

to MS, it makes them money.

stop acting like everything Sony does stinks like shit and everything MS does is some form of the King Midas touch. you know as well as i do, if Sony only sold proprietary hard drives for the PS3, you haters would be shitting all over that idea.

Are you fucking retarded? Do you even know ANYTHING about PS3's? Removing and installing the hard drive on a PS3 takes the better half of 5 minutes. A retard like you might want to set a whole day aside.




I figured Smoger and Unnecessary would teach their nuthuggers better...

Did I disagree that it was flawed? I sure as fuck would like to only have to spend $100 and be able to get a 500gb HDD instead of paying more to get less. I just said it was still selling and that it was Microsoft being Proprietary... which if we learned anything in Economics class (Adionik might not be this far along in school yet, silly kiddies) means they can set the price at whatever they want and people will still buy it.

Aww the little boy took the dick out of his mouth and called me a retard... My dick is getting dry. Back to work and I might let you play your failure of a console afterwards.

Thanks for the awesome picture, I would have never known that under the slot that says 'Detach this cover when removing the HardDrive' was actually the Harddrive... who would have thought. Hmm, sure looks like its a hell of a lot more work than the 360... which is 1 button.

Flawed by Design.... Shitting into a high gloss box, calling it new technology (which people don't want to make games for), doing poor marketing and calling it the best.

One reason why I picked the PS3 is that Sony doesn't nickel and dime me to enjoy gaming.
