LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL
I'm a 6 foot 2, 41 year old man, you strange little boy.
You're exactly the sort of idiot that most people on Xbox Live save the Mute button for.

I'm printing your posts out.
So many people will be hysterical down the pub at the weekend.

I've never met anyone simple enough to use the term "bitchy little ass punk" before.
Kids should never be allowed to browse the Internet without supervision.

LOL :)

First of all, why would it have to be exclusive?
If a game came out on the Xbox and PS2, then I would buy the Xbox version because I prefer to play them on the Xbox (sometimes because I'd already played either the PS2 or Xbox version).

Some of my games are Xbox exclusives (Forza Motorsport 2, Halo 3, Project Gotham 4) but most are multi-format.

You've already answered your other question when you mention exclusives.
That's why I ended up with a PS2 and only a couple of games.
Sony made damn sure that GT and GTA were exclusives, and it's no secret that both those games sold the console.
With only one game that I'm interested in being exclusive to the PS3 (GT), the PS3 is even less of an attraction than the PS2, which is why I said I'd probably end up getting one second-hand at some point (my PS2 wasn't brand new, lol).

I don't play any of those dancing mat games, or any other games aimed at 10 year olds, which is why I said what I did about the Wii earlier.
(I make exceptions for games like Mario, because I grew up playing them, and we should all be big kids now and again.) :)

Oh, and it's a shame your missus can't hold her breath that long.
You're missing out, you really are. ;)

Sounds good to me.

There is no wrong machine, especially not on my say so.
I was just saying what my experience has been.
I could be turned around on the PS3 if the PSP is anything to go by, but it's still too pricey for what it is, and has the usual Sony hype, which puts me off.
Remember the "emotion engine" blab for the PS2? lol

We know that they lose money for every console they sell, and make their money on the licensing of the games, so why can't they all get together and make one console, share the expense of console production, and share the licensing profits?

That question is almost as old as gaming itself, but Microsoft doing so well with the 360 and Nintendo surprising everyone with the success of the Wii, I don't think we've had such a level playing field for more than a decade.
It's very possible that the next gen could be one format, which would be great, although there are a lot of fanboys on all sides that wouldn't have anything to complain about, and their lives would become meaningless. :)

"your right about the misses though, normally she aint got time to come up for air...." ---- LOL

@Baz: I haven't had a proper look, but I found this, which was December last year:
Xbox 360 DivX/XviD Playback Tested (Verdict: It's Almost Perfect)

To prove how little interest I have/had in using the Xbox for movie playing, I didn't know anything about this. :)
I'll certainly be digging out a few DVDs to test Divx playback now though.

Yaaaaaaawwwwwwwwwnnnn.... Challenges are soooo outdated.

Beating a computer at the hardest level can't even compare to challending someone in RL at a game.

I remember the days of Street Fighter 2 (pick an edition lol)

my friend could beat all the figters on the hardest level at the top speed (on Turbo), so I played him, won 98 - 2 ;)

Also, if you're gonna challenge someone online, make sure it's even, and not a beefed up all singing all dancing character vs a new entry.

lets see.... Army vs average joe... seems like a WWE event where the latter wins lol
Not every pet in Pet Society is sweet and innocent....

I think you'll find they will use the same format for games as they always have and that the blu ray add on will simply be for movies.
I would'nt rule out a new version of the 360 with built in blu ray support, kinda like the duel blu ray/ hd-dvd drives you can get for pc's.

Which ones your favorite, mines the 360. A lot of compertition with gamerscore etc. and some good games and good technolagy.
Then again the wii might jump ahead because of the wireless pads which are very fun ( and tiring ) to use and has a really good graphics processor.
Ive not been on the PS3 yet but my mate has one and says there really reliable and very addictive .... so whats yours ??

And im not just saying the 360 coz i have one i also have a Wii lol
(cardie69) <<


xbox 360 myself but also got a wii for the girls
