Shut the bloody hell up. If you don't contribute don't bother posting. And I would point out that I haven't posted that the PS3 will retail for 500 to 600 euros, so I guess that makes the "every time competitor stories are out he needs to highlight how bad they are, y'know, just to be fair" sound idiotic doesn't it? I didn't even start this thread. Guess who did? Furthermore, I believe you were complaining about creating new threads when old threads already covered the same topic? Bloody hypocrite.

Oooh.... touched a nerve, have I?

Presumably you'd also like to add that the PS3 story wasn't a particularly major one as a) Sony denied that'd be the price anyways and b) it'd be markedly cheaper than a Blu-Ray DVD player and hence not exactly negative for them either.

anyways, let's look at what comes up on your 'last posts' page;

3 posts defending MS with respect to the download costs for Oblivion content on Live;
1 post moaning about Halos' rating
1 post linking PGR3 videos followed by one saying you'll wait for Forza 2
1 describing how you dream about Halo
1 hailing Halos music as 'genius'
1 with a huge screenshot of Halo
1 'pulling out a flamethrower' on someone who said Pc games were best on Stealths 360 thread.

In fact, of the last 25 posts i see about 15 are either mentioning MS games (namely Halo) or within 360 related threads.  Crikey.

Of course Sony is going to deny the price, just like they denied that any of the stuff shown at E305 was CGi (which it was), and despite the fact that it came straight from the mouth of Sony's VP in France. And markedly cheaper than a Blu-Ray player anyway is still too expensive for something that's quickly becoming not a game console but a primer for Blu-Ray despite the fact that A. The one in the PS3 will be incredibly low-quality to keep costs down, so anyone serious about HD content will get a stand-alone player, and B. HD penetration in the US is 7%. While games can look better and better even on SDTV still, DVD is still perfectly fine for the vast majority of consumers.

3 posts defending MS with respect to the download costs for Oblivion content on Live;\\

Is it wrong to do so when people like you make incredibly moronic assumptions?

1 post moaning about Halos' rating

Do you disagree? Please explain why the rating is correct.

1 post linking PGR3 videos followed by one saying you'll wait for Forza 2

After you moaned about me posting PGR3 stuff I deleted it all. Never happy are we?

1 describing how you dream about Halo

Generalizations are unhealthy. I specifically stated that I dream about what I have recently played and/or watched.

1 hailing Halos music as 'genius'

It is, along with most of Marty O'Donells work.

1 with a huge screenshot of Halo

Following a comment by Turnsky suggesting that next year's april fools would involve "wort wort worts." An expression by elites IN Halo, hence the screenshot of a ship full of elites.

1 'pulling out a flamethrower' on someone who said Pc games were best on Stealths 360 thread.

Because it was an incredibly stupid thing to say. There are great games both on the PC and on consoles. Do you disagree?

Again with the personal attacks, might you please do me the favor of leaving if you don't contribute?

Ah, back onto the competitor attacks I see.  roll on!

EDIT; If I'm a moron....tell me, what do you do for a living?

[Deepblue]

Considering that you brought it up, and considering that you continue to attack me i find such a statement completely and utterly ironic.

Please don't make a complete @rse of yourself anymore.

[BlackDove]

The only one making an ass out of themselves in this thread is you Shill. Your title should be bolded to red so it's a good warning to everyone.

I don't believe anyone can declare the other person is making an arse of themselves without appearing a) shifty and  B) avoiding the point.

Why me in italics?  Are you immune from criticism with your whacky advert posting ways?

[Deepblue]

Why are you attacking me for posting in YOUR thread on YOUR topic?

Are you some sort of masochist?

[BlackDove]

Nice try to divert the topic. I think that would have worked on me if I was five years old.

[Deepblue]

I apologize, I shouldn't have overestimated your age.

Er...so...what did you just say then? Bunnies are fluffy?

[Deepblue]

Bunnies are wonderfully cute.

I still want this one answered.

Lemme think.

It's an old, semi humourous topic that was really just an excuse for sex, violence and ping-pong related jokes.  Glancing back on p1 & 2, your main contribution was to post 2 replies with huge and off-topic screenshots of entirely different games, which everyone ignored or got annoyed with (I believe you called them idiots for that - deja vu!).  now, a month later you resurrect it in order to show video footage and post an incredibly annoying 'attention grabber' gif (not dissimilar to the tactic of posting huge and seemingly random screenshots in any vaguely game related thread - see page 1 & 2 of here).  Sorry, not a video - a trailer.  An advert.

Now, i genuinely don't know if you're paid or just incredibly enthusiastic, but it gets on my tits royally when someone is so blatantly biased and trying to push a product into others faces, so of course I'm going to get annoyed with this sort of japery.

You complain about off-topic and on-topic contributions...

brilliant!

Hey, hush you.  Aldo has contributed more to this community with his pinky finger than you have in all of your pathetic existance.

He's allowed to post random stuff when he pleases, in part because he's more respected around here but more specifically because he knows when it is and is not appropriate to post OT things.

[Deepblue]

Why, and what's yours?

[StratComm]

Careful DB, aldo will actually tell you.  You're backing yourself into a corner.

[BlackDove]

I apologize, I shouldn't have overestimated your age.

Wow, so desperate for an insult you even make one that doesn't make sense.

Awesome.

[Deepblue]

If that doesn't make sense you are in desperate need of (more?) schooling.
