Well since my bro has a PS3 pre-order, I'm convincing him to sell it on the same night as launch day for $3000. If he does, then I'll take some of that money to get myself a 8800GTX, that's something which will leave at least 2x the graphical power as your consoles in the dust even with some bottleneck. Who's the king now, console boys?

Controversy > you all.

And as promised, our PS3 display.

I wasn't there when it happened, but apparently there's 2 consoles there. The one you can see, which does nothing; and the one in the silver box under it, that actually plays the games. Well, the cooling isn't quite adequate when you have everyone and their mother wanting to play the demos and trailers all day long, and it overheated and froze up.

i dont think there is anything wrong with assuming that ps3 at launch will be no competition for the 360..in fact i dont think the ps3 will be worth buying and keeping till about one year from now

my definition of a fanboy when it comes to consoles is someone like quiggs who comes out with threads called "ps3 > 360" or stating in the GOW thread.."360 sucks".

i wont just sit here with my mouth shut and let someone tell people that the ps3 demo's he saw equates to the 360 sucking..its just not true

whatever people, my last word is, dont buy a nintendo Wii until your friend buys one and you see how sucky it is...buy a ps3 and sell it...buy one for yourself in a year...buy a 360 now and have fun..or buy a pc even..but never let someone like quiggs change your stance on a certain console..his opinion is completely biased

arguing like a bunch of phat bastards over which cake to eat, where in the end, the eat all of them

really, to be honest, im confident from all of the E3 and gaming expo news reports, articles, shows ive viewed on cable, youtube and the numerous fanboys..on both sides of the battle, the ps3 launch title, whether you like it or not are going to be a hit and miss. Most of the games launched will not look better than the mainstream 360 game, but there will be exceptions from the larger developers whom have larger budgets and time.

Its all about logic. It has been proven by public reaction and feedback that the ps3 will not be as popular as fanboys want it to be, the games DO NOT look as good as everyone hyped them up to be, BUT they will significantly increase in quality given time, resources, funds and of course consumer demand.

bias opinions can be blatantly obvious sometimes, ala this thread, but people still stick to thier comments because they are searching for someone to re-affirm thier own thoughts.

Personally, I think a fanboy is an individual whom seeks to glorify a singular brand over another no matter what arguments are made against it. No matter the facts, they still project thier chosen brand as the one solitary must have product.

The direct competitor is immediately inferior. Whatever the other people say, and whatever facts are shoved in thier face. Creating hype and reinforcing thier opinions through slang and over use of personal opinion is thier forte.

Its a part of the gaming world. There are more loud mouthed fanboys than others and that is where I think we can get it all wrong. The individual who seems loud, but states fact, reinforces personal opinion and is cohesive is often mistaken as the fanboy. What a world.

i freely admit that the Ps3 will in all likelihood be technologically superior to the xbox 360.
however, none of it's games are particularly entincing at the moment, and it's certainly not ~$300 better than the 360.
as much as i like the wii as well, i won't buy one for some time since i just ordered all the parts for a fairly kickass computer, i have like 2 years of PC games to catch up on.

I've just about had enough of this bullshit. I'm sick to death of you calling other people fanboys. Just the way you say it, like you are God himself, "but never let someone like quiggs change your stance on a certain console..his opinion is completely biased".

You haven't even played a PS3. Quiggs has. Yet you are the one telling us what the PS3 is really like??

I think you over use the fanboy term. Alot. You seem to have a simple criteria: Prefers Sony over Microsoft. If your fanboy criteria is more complex, please tell me, which I don't think it is. (Remember, I was a 'fanboy' simply for BUYING a PSP, and not a 360)

No you won't, you will label him a fanboy and a liar because you have obviously played all three consoles and know which is the best, the 360 of course! I don't recall anyone saying that the 360 sucks, either.

Based on your own criteria I could call you a fanboy, for telling us all that the Wii sucks, sell your PS3, and what do ya know, "BUY A 360 AND HAVE FUN"

The irony is killing me. I'm beginning to think there is a reason that all of your console assessments finish with the 360 on top. I'm not going to call you a fanboy though. Maybe it just looks that way from my own perspective.

BTW, Werty, I have had a disagreement with you before about your fanboy labelling, and my closing comment last time applies to this time aswell. Nothing I have said is intended to be a personal attack. I just do not like what I see.

...And I disagree about his assessment of wii, seems he's already made up his mind with out all the facts. Stop trying to force your opinion as fact on everyone else werty.
