Filler posts? Damn, this gets better...
The last thing we need is 'filler posts'. Especially the flaming type which you have demonstrated here. It is blatant post boosting, and is not in the spirits of the forums.

Lethal_B, don't you know that tags mean nothign but how many times you've posted?? For all I care you are stupid as your post is stupid.
I am fully aware of what the tags mean. But surely with the tags come a little responsibility - to set an example to newer members...? You don't really understand what the forums are really about, as you are a newbie with a high post count.
I give up. You are demonstrating that you are very difficult to converse with, hence the reason these forums are full of tension and flamewars.

my my, a typical console thread i see. i haven't read any other pages but as per usual i see posters of higher 'status' than newbie acting like babies. and Lethal_B is NOT one of those Senior members at fault here. Those that are know who they are (well i'd like to think so anyway, i'm rarely surprised in these kind of forums). And to think dRD created 3 more games forums today, i wonder what dross posters/posts will end up in those forums.
Now i got two choices, close the thread as was obviously gonna degenerate into a typical flamer thread from the title of the thread, or i waste some of my time going thru and weeding out the pointless ppl, or both.
Decisions, decisions...

sorry if i was doing wrong, just trying to have fun and help while showing other people a side
of the console wars they arnt close to. the whole language thing was blown out of proportion,
and most things i say are to help or to show. im not the best at sounding fancy so people
take me less seriously.
But they all do sort of the same thing, and that is rearrange what you thought was real, and they remind you of the beauty of very simple things. You forget, because youre so busy going from a to z, that theres 24 letters in between... You turn on... tune in... and you drop out...

ooh gears of war march, i should get my xbox 360 chiped buy then so i can get an american version of the game instead of waiting another 2 months till it arives in london to then go and pay even more money. just like DOA4 that has still not released here in england.
oh also go to ign and check out the new battle field 2 pics for the 360, they are pretty cool.
going back a while when someone said that bluray would beat HDDVD, i think it might have been on another thread but anyways, i heard that the hd is going to be double sised or something with dvd on one side and hd on the other, so basically i forgot what he said but you can go check it out, at the time all i remember was it was something good, lol.

@ Creeky
I dont think you should close the thread becuase you will just get another one that will pop up with the same stuff.

Well if another one pops up, that can be closed too if y'all cant show a little self control. You will be the ones losing, not the moderators...

Lethal_b if you are so befitting of you senior member status why do you keep coming back to this thread and put people down for their petty arguments? You've reported this thread, is that not enough? surely a more mature and responsible member such as yourself would report such a thread, as is your duty and then just leave, that would be the adult thing to do however it seems to me you enjoy adding into the argument, in your own special way of course, so are you really "better" than anyone here? It seems not.

no, actually. Lethal_B is a respected member who, like a lot of others here, like to see the forums kept clean. I deliberately left this open to see who would show restraint and who would whine like babies. it seems there's a couple whiners in the keep net already. And yes, closing the thread would mean another might spring up, but us mods (and members who wanna keep this place free of pondlife) will just find the dross posters and dross comments and round we go again.
Just grow up kids, if you can, i can just escort anyone from the site if they continue to be babies. Having Member or Senior Member (or even Addict) under a username means jack if the posts are drivel, it can soon say Inactive, like i give a crap

personally i havnt bothered reading all the other posts just a few of them.i think the difference between the PS3 and the xbox 360 will depend largly on the games rather than the systems themselves.what use is a good system without any good games.personally im going for the xbox 360.
@creaky i noticed the new rooms ive even posted an xbox game review.

offcourse it all comes down to the games and what extra features they serve such as online play.

what some people dont see tho is its not only games. the ps3 is being marketed to not just gamers, but avid geeks.. people who will use the linux support and try to do everything un thier power to play around with the open system for thier own bidding. it may become the media centerpice of peoples living rooms. sure it plays nice games, but you can surft the net, use linux, play bd-rom's, music, other video formats, and built ing wifi. that is the reson it may cost more. all around it is a better system, but i guess if you dont care to pay another 50-100 dollars for those uses and all you want is games, then 360 is right for you 'now'. but after a year, almost all your games will be multi disk, and it wil become a pain. there is one rpg right now i cant remember its name, but the are already saying it cant fit on one dvd and they are struggleing to fit it on 2. i posted a link to the article somewhere.

anubis you are correct, when you say that its not ALL about gaming, thats why both consoles have different features, but when it comes to the overal performace of the machine the first thing that pops into people heads is how the games play.

don't u think the present graphics of xbox 360 are like good ps2 or xbox graphics?
i have king kong on my ps2, and when i played its demo on xbox 360 (in a game shop) it hardly felt any different. so, xbox 360 did disappoint but i am sure newer games will offer more eye candy.
i personally think most of us shud wait till ps3 comes, compare it and then decide. the current debate xbox 360 vs ps3 is based on lots of wild guesses, hype , incomplete info and above all brand loyalty (read BIAS). wat do u think?
another question: which console would be easier to mod?

well considering its in a PS3 topic of course its gonna be biased.
@ anubis66.dont we have computers for linux and whats the point in buying a gaming system to have as a media centre.as for an rpg that cant fit on one disk cant they use a double sided disc????
one more point have any of you seen the ps3 in action???played on the PS3????if the answer is no how can you say its better just according to the rumoured stats.i recall an article back in 2000 that said the PS3 will be able to watch and record high definition tv on to a dvd of course it was a rumour back then and theres rumours flying around about the PS3 now.

i to played king kong on th 360 , graphically it was loads better but the game is basically the same on all systems, most of the first games for the 360 will be like the xbox and ps2 but with smoother gameplay and crisper, shinier graphics, more colours etc etc. looked great to me, easily better graphics than ps2.
all ps2 games have a poor display of the amount of on screen colours, and really jaggery edges.
dont know bout modding cant be bothered, hear most people end up breaking their consoles.

sulaim the games that came out at the launch were disapointing in graphics b/c they were rushed. thats why games like DOA4, oblivion and ghost recon have delayed there release date so that they could make better use of the xbox 360.

its not roumored info, xboxdvl2, its official stats released by sony. the problem with a double sided disk is there will be no graphical image on the disc, and it is more expensive to produce than 2 different dvds. plus for those hard of seeing could not be able too read the extremely small text saying side a or side b.

Anubis those hard of seeing should get glasses or contacts, that isn't a problem, also about the multi disc thing *sigh* you know morrowind oblivion, I was reading on many sights that they were struggling to fit it on 4 discs!! thats right four but in the end it went onto one. Now the thing is if this rpg is somehow very very large and has to be put on 3 discs then it still wouldn't be a pain because think about it, I would have to complete a large section of the rpg before I actually went on to another disc so it may take me hours upon hours before I changed a disc, not much of a pain really.
secondly xboxdvl2 is right, I have a computer for linux if I wished, the reason I buy a console is to get the latest and greates games and to have SIMPLE plug in and play fun. Thats also the reason for xbox live to make it simple and easy.

eureka said he wanted both consoles before.
What is good about the 360 is its easy functions. It has a very simple inteface to naviate through the system. Also it alows for people to simply place a disc in the system and choose wherether or not they want to play on line and if they do all the servers come up of the games being played for them to choose from.
We dont know what PS3's funtions are like yet but if they are anything like a PC's then it means the ordinary public would find it a bit more of a task to navigate and play online. This is not to much of a problem for us who are very computer litterate but you have to remember that consoles are primarly for those who come home, swith on thier TV and want to start playing a game with as much ease as possible.
A situation I can remember with this was the Atari ST or Amiga. You could do a few things with these semi-PC's but when it came to playing games nothing was better than the Megadrive or Super Nintendo where you just stick the cartridge in and play.
