They showed the real thing on MTV last night.
the above image = the real thing
Yeah, I saw that. I appreciated how they showed it right away, and then had the Killers play a song. That way I got what I wanted and went to sleep.
I'm still a playstation man though.

Sure, and people can add, just post a large number of smilies or links to smiles at once, not two or three a post. I will see if I can find out how to add, though Koola probably would know better.

[personal opinion]
Ok, lets not get started on that crap. "nigger" is considered profane and a flame, same as calling someone a "fudgepacker" and other stuff. I usually consider saying "fag" in a joking sense to not be profane, and neither does my bi gf or any other gay or bi friends I have, but some people are very very offended by practically everything, so we don't usually say that either. As for as "nigga" goes, shit, its in practically every rap song, and most black people say it to one another. I don't like the "if you are black you can say nigga but if you aren't i'm kickin' your racist ass" attititude, b/c that's retarded. Shit, we were talking about "not liking wiggers" the other day, b/c its not meant in a bad way.
[/personal opinion]
[staff position]
If its going to be as I just stated regarding "some people can say certain things while others can't" then we'll ban those words all together on both ends. Its never been a problem before, however.

Slug, your liking PC games better is only a matter of opinion. I, for example, hate most PC games and prefer the consoles by far.
Halo 2 > Halo (Only by virtue of Halo 2 having "almost" realistic gunplay. Almost as in not as abhorrently wrong). Again, only my opinion on the part of H2 being better, but it's simple fact on the part of H2 being slightly more accurate. (Shotgun sniping =/= possible)
Besides, what it all comes down to is do you want your system to do all that? Seriously, I don't need another fucking computer. I'd rather have the PS3 and just the PS3 for cheaper instead of all that extra crap that's coming with all the next-gen systems.

I wasn't talking about the hardware. You said PC games were better, and that cannot boil down to technical jargon, it comes down to opinion and preference.
I'm not about to argue that a PS2 is more powerful than a computer.

It is a matter of opinion Bra...Im not trying to push it on anyone....but lets look at the facts.
Game systems now an days are trying to become more like computers. RAM, Harddrives, stuff like that.
They keep getting more expensive and bigger and better yet you have to spend more money to mod them to make them as good as computers.
When each new console comes out you need to buy the new system to play the new games.
Computers.
Fully upgradable...sure it might cost a bit to re do the whole computer, but if you upgrade a video card here, your processor there, little by little.
Computers basicly just are more adaptable...and better...but then again these are just my opinions, not trying to force them on anyone.
omg. Consoles get better because people are evolutionary, if we did not improve on our technology, then we would be stuck in midevil times. Whats wrong with you slug? OF COURSE THERE GONNA MAKE GAME CONSOLES BETTER!!! why wouldn't they.
you can be a dumbass sometimes you know that.
[edit: If they ever do make a small system that is just like a computer in everyway, then why not buy it? you could just pop in a game, and play it. Unlike a computer you have to wait awhile to download.
If you want to Reply to this then PM me, i don't want peole getting mad because we are posting wasteless post's.
He's got a point there.
I am telling nobody to flame Pikkon just because he sai dthat Slug can be a dumbass sometimes. If you do, then yu will just be a moron, for everyone is a moron sometimes.
Even though I have played computer game smany times before, I just find that console games are better. That's just me, I'm a big solo-player fan, sure, I may race against someone every now an dthen, or go online, but consoles are just better in my opinion.
BTW, Pikkon, yours was not a wasteless post, it contributed to the discussion.

Do you want to know WHY they come out with new consoles, and new updates for half of their systems? It's because they already had a better version of it ready to go, but they decided to sap that extra bit of money out of that "new" idea, and the public would gulp it down.
Look at the new Xbox. I'll give them a year or two, and they'll have a completely new, "improved" Xbox, rendering their older versions useless, much in the way that computers are nowadays. A good example of getting extra money off this stuff is the SNES and N64. They were capable of mass producing N64's at the time of SNES, but yet they still created it. And suprisingly, it was awesome, but that's beside the point.
Computers are the same way. Except that in less than a month, your brand-spankin new computer is obsolete compared to the one that just came out.
So technically, Slug is right. Consoles are indeed moving towards the way computers are. Pikkon, you're completely wrong. Play Halo 2, KOTOR I, heck practically any video game nowadays for a console, and you'll see it load.
Old catridge games didn't do that, because it wasn't like a computer.
So, if you buy that new Xbox, all the better for you. You can brag about the new games you got, but in about 5 or 6 years, your $300+ game console will be worth $25 on Ebay.

He meant downloading it and so forth, 20. *cough*
Plus, of course it is becoming a computer, who didn't know that. The thing is, computers are revolutionary, so why not take ahold of something that can revolutionize the gaming world? They could just make computer games, but where is the money? That is how they think.

Yes, True, True, you prove a good point. Ive played halo 2 and it was alright, personaly i liked it better then the first, only because halo 3 will be an extension.
Slug is right on the bad ending on halo 2, I liked the ending on the first as we'll.
Yes time fly's by doesn't it? Indeed our consoles will be worthless evetually, but it also works the same way as computers, so how am i wrong? i didn't even mention anything about the consoles becoming useless.
It doesn't really bother me if the console becomes useless, only because i like to enjoy things while they last.
You guys can throw you're points at me all you want, but in the end it wont matter, Because no one can predict the future. Hell maybe in the future Consoles will be known as antiques, and will be able to be sold for a lot.
Nothin' personal, Slug, I just hate losing. >=(
