What good times would those be? The jet engine noise? I can't believe there were actually 300,000 people stupid enough to buy one..
Scrub that, there were 16,000,000 people stupid enough to buy Xbox360, despite the well publicised problems and money gouging at every oppertunity.,..
Nfinity @ Apr 8th 2008 5:48PM
Yeah and people who bought PS3 with no games, slow ass drive and like less then 500 hd movies overall at $400+ are oozing from intelligence. LOL!

@Nfinity
I know it's hard to understand being a simpleton, but you realise that the 360 had no games also in it's first year.
Here is a handy helper, for when you have trouble:
IF A CONSOLE IS RUSHED OUT A YEAR EARLIER IT WILL:
A) BE UNRELIABLE
B) BE CUT DOWN
C) HAVE MORE GAMES OUT BY THE TIMER PROPERLY DEVELOPED SYSTEMS ARRIVE
Hope that helps.

Of course, me, as a person who has both I had ZERO problems with my Xbox 360. And I bought the very first batch.
And all that talk about games and stuff in the first year. Please, don't make me laugh. Go compare games and you'll realize how silly you sound.

@Nfinity
PS3 had these in it's first year:
Motorstorm
Resistance
Oblivion
Ridge Racer 7
Ratchet and Clank Tools Of Destruction
Unchartered Drakes Fortune
Unreal Tournement 3
Singstar
Guitar Hero3
Pretty much everything upto Gears sucks badly on 360. You seems to have erased that painful time out (conviently), and make yourself more comfortable by pretending the PS3 is also in the sucky games boat. Sorry to tell you, it's not...

Dead Rising rocked my socks off.

Fanboys, fanboys, whatcha gonna do?
Whatcha gonna do when they come for you?
Fanboys, fanboys...
Nfinity @ Apr 8th 2008 6:59PM
Ben, he's just in denial. It's typical fanboy issue. Everything on Xbox 360 sucked and Resistance which looked absolutely ridiculous (that game was no better then Call of Duty 2 graphics wise) or even Motorstorm with 10 minute loading time when you change the car and other things too.
What's funny is that Ratchet and Drake are indeed solid games but they came close to the second year of production then in the first year. For the first year Playstation 3 fanboys had NOTHING to play.
As I said, denial I guess. And it's pretty hilarious that they continue to think that Playstation 3 somehow has a chance to overcome Xbox 360 LOL.. The only 2 games all fanboys are counting on are MGS4 and GT5 and 1 will come this year, the other one next year. In the meantime, they completely blind to the sick line up of games coming out for 360 this year. Absolutely insane. Wonder what version of the games (non-exclusives) gamers will buy. Yeah, I'm sure it's gonna be PS3, especially GTA 4 with exclusive Xbox 360 content.
LOL. Brainwashing at it's finest.

Nfinity, It's quite pathetic to hear arguments from you that the PS3 has "no games". Its absurd. It might have been true for a while (just as it was for the 360 and every other new console), but it isn't now. If you spun that idiocy on Neogaf you would be banned in a second.
This year alone, the PS3 has GT5P (currently #1 in Europe), Killzone 2, Resistance 2, LittleBigPlanet, Metal Gear Solid 4, GTA IV, Motorstorm 2 and a raft more besides. These are all major titles. The PS3 is going to have an extremely good year and I would not be surprised if it surpasses the 360 for sales this year by a substantial margin.
The 360 might be a great console, but your put downs of the PS3 show how immature you really are. The PS3 clearly threatens you. Grow up.
