PS3 or Wii or 360

[Black Water Park]

which would you, or have you purchased? which do you think is the best and why? this does not really have anything to do with pot of course, well except for the fact that video games are awesome while high!

Video games suck and boys that play them will never get a girlfriend.
HarHARHAR.:o
WIsh I was joking...for your sake.:thumbsup:

[D.Boone]

i think they will all be good i like wii controller but the graphics arent that good i heard. as for ps3 the graphics are prolly the best of the bunch and i like the idea of the motion sensor controller. but im going to miss the vibration feature. i was never a big xbox fan but i must admit i like the 360. the graphics are crystal clear. the games are good. but i think ps3 is prolly gonna be the one that wins the war.

[bobbydabud]

i have the xbox xbox 360 had the ps2. I love the 360 and i want the Wii for the controller on zelda

[xcrispi]

piss on all 3 of em n go make a responsible type purchase , like a giant sack of da funk w/ your coin .
peace

[orangeman]

I have been a Sony fan every since 3D gaming came into fashion. So obviously I'd have to go with the PS3 :D.

[ToDrunkToFish]

I got the 360. I love it. Though it did break but I got the new warrentied one coming... Eventually.

Ps3 was too expensive for my taste though and even though I want to try the Wii I didnt want it. I love Halo 2 and cant wait for Halo 3. And Burnout is awsome!

[t3chyo]

I'll go off with an opinion not based off being a fanboy for any company here.

XBOX 360 has the hardware/graphics, interface is great, xboxlive being the best console online network, halo 3, gears of war. I would of liked to have built in wi-fi for internet excess though, you have to buy a separate item.

PS3 has the hardware/graphics(about the same to the 360, look it up if you don't believe), nice looking interface(an updated version of the PSP interface), they got fall of man as their first great game for the console, 6 controllers via wi-fi, but this thing is just all about the hardware with a price tag at $600(being the highest priced version) and the lowest being $500.

nintendo wii is very sleek/stylish looking, not much hardware going for it tho, they say about 2x the gamecube power. The real revolution to it is the wii-mote tho which is really where it shines. They have zelda: the twilight princess as a launch game(being called the best, or 2nd best launch title of all-time, contender is mario 64). They have a 24hr online service going where you can also download SNES ports, N64 ports, and so on, but the system cannot play DVD's...

CONCLUSION: All in all, if I had to choose ONE system it would honestly be the nintendo Wii as I'm more for the experience than bragging rights about whos console has the better hardware. When it comes down to it, the GAMES make the SYSTEM, and nintendo is really one of the best developers in the world proving it with there new zelda game.

2nd choice would be the xbox 360, all-around it has everything going for it, xbox live, great games already out(gears of war), and its been out a little while longer than the PS3 giving it the upper-hand.

I'm sorry, but the PS3 was a rushed system(shipment to US was going to be about 500,000units give or take, defects lowered that to 300,000 or so), and is all about shoving hardware in there to make you want it. Please don't think i'm flaming the PS3, I have a PS2 and like it alot, has alot of good games out, alot!

hope my opinions helped with anyones decision.

[TYCO118]

playstation 3 is the best but im gonna wait till the price drops
as for now i wanna get the wii

[phoenix]

Yeah, so far I haven't heard great things about the ps3, I guess someone left it on about 20 hours and it just started on fire... O_o I still can't stand that controller, I've hated it since PS1 (which I had).

I've got a 360 and I love it, some great games coming out in the next few months. I'd love to get a Wii if I had some extra money, it just looks like it'd be so fun if you were high.

[nofx12345]

i have the xbox xbox 360 had the ps2. I love the 360 and i want the Wii for the controller on zelda


haha can tell ur baked
xbox doesent make xbox microsoft makes it

i think i only noticed it cause im pretty baked myself.

I'm asking for the PS3 and maybe an xbox 360 as well. But certainly the PS3. I play video games all the time and me and my g/f have been together over a year. Gamers can find g/f's, it just may not be as easy. :(

[Dplaya4life03]

I think he meant that he had xbox and xbox 360.

[D.Boone]

they had the same problems with xbox 360 at first all systems have bugs at first release.

[JaggedEdge]

they had the same problems with xbox 360 at first all systems have bugs at first release.

And that is why I'm can't understand the people who waited in line and all that for their new cam console. I would not spend 600 bucks on it right at first. I figured something would be messed up like in the 360. Wait for them to fix the bugs and than get one.

[mrdevious]

After reading the specs, the Wii capabilities are (about) almost double that of the gamecube. While it may not stand up to 360 and PS3 in graphics (and maybe AI, I hope not), it's should still provide us with plenty. After all, gamecube released some VERY high-graphic games such as resident evil 4.

Personally I'm getting a Wii because I've come to like the new control scheme which will hopefully lead to the most important use of all...... holding your own lightsaber!!!! And oddly enough when I watched a video for Red Steel, the fluidity and naturalistic movement and physics of the enemies seemed more real than anything I've seen on the other consoles yet. But then again, that's Ubisoft for you :) .

The only thing I'm concerned about is that it seems to have rather average RAM. Will it be able to handle extremely visually stimulating and varried environments without freezing up?:confused: I've been impressed thus far by the landscapes of the new Zelda and physics in Red Steel, so thus far it seems to handle things pretty well. Time will tell. But for god's sake, they couldn't have made a 1GHz processor, they had to make it 755MGz? I mean that's still double what the gamecube had but 1GHz isn't exactly a technological feat these days. Maybe it was just to keep costs down and keep the system cheap. That $280 price tag sure beats the $500 for 360 and $600 for PS3 (Speaking in Canadian prices).

Anybody know how many pixels-per-second each system can handle? It's so damn hard to find comparable technical specifications since all the systems use different measurements. I mean you get 360 with "9.6GHz", fine easy enough. Then you get Wii or PS3 and the processor is listed as something like "endeon 738 dual-schtiggling anti-jibble morphible-enhanced blue ray acceleration".

[Mercsix8six]

yes that a good point and the 360's price still stands and now that i think about it, the first console to problly drop its price would be the wii

[benagain]

1st chance I get would be the wii. It's for us folks who still have normal TVs and want a new fun gaming experience. As far as I can tell, all the ps3 and xbox games will jus tbe the same games weve been playing since PS1 but with better graphics. Iu'll eventually get a PS3 and xbox 360, but the Wii will be my 1st purchase whenver that is.

[Reefer Rogue]

Video games suck and boys that play them will never get a girlfriend.
HarHARHAR.:o
WIsh I was joking...for your sake.:thumbsup:

Elaborate on why they 'suck'

I play video games and i've had girlfriends.

Anyway, I use to want the ps3 but i've changed my mind and i'm getting a 360 for x-mas, I can't wait to play GOW online, aswell as halo 2 and COD3. I may get the Ps3 one day...

[phoenix]

Tallulah is secretly a video game nerd, but she doesn't want anyone to know.

[Mercsix8six]

yes and i d be shur to smash u in gow at last i will look for thee and smite themm whaaaahaha xbox is cool man no dubt ps3 is just hard to come by becuse if the price i mean think bout it 2 versions and many uprgredes to both system right diff componets ps3 version 500$ has no wifi but they could have a perhiperal that conects to that shit ok

[slipknotpsycho]

xbox live just sucks... they're just trying to squeeze every penny out of you they can.... first the system doesn't already come internet ready (where as ps does, well the new models anyways) second, you have to pay just to be able to play your games online... xbox live = teh suxorz nuborz..

Dude, I saw a video review on gamespot that Red Steel was lame. Check it out before you buy it.

[Mercsix8six]

how much is xbox live again ?

[t3chyo]

xbox live just sucks... they're just trying to squeeze every penny out of you they can.... first the system doesn't already come internet ready (where as ps does, well the new models anyways) second, you have to pay just to be able to play your games online... xbox live = teh suxorz nuborz..

refering to bold: What company isnt trying to squeeze every single penny out of you? Are you kidding? The PS3 is loaded with a bunch of crap, blue-ray, 6 wi-fi ports, all that stuff making it the most expansive console ever. The only company I have alot of respect for is Nintendo, they go for the experience like i said above and try to keep the price range as low as possible providing quality games.

NOW...

I never said the system came internet ready? I did say you have to buy a wi-fi adapter...Now that I think about it, the system does come internet ready, just like dreamcast was(dial up), xbox was, it has a broadband ethernet adapter in the back, as well as free 2month(?) subscription to xboxlive service. Xbox live is also only $50 a month which comes out to about $4.16 a month, if you cannot afford that but could afford a PS3, than theres something wrong. Also the service does not suck, im sorry please be more specific why it does. PS3's internet service may be free, but its nothing to talk about.:thumbsup:

yeah but think about it this way... the whole time you're paying for xbox live, after purchasing the system, you're going to end up paying just as much as the person who went with the ps3 and get their connection for free... and it's service sucks because you have to pay for it, there's absolutely no reason why playstation can offer free connection, while xbox can't, they just want to milk you for every penny and they are... that's just why i hate xbox live, i have even more reasons why i hate xbox period...

[pu ekot]

Let me start off by saying I am more knowlegable in this field (and electronics in general) than I would like to admit. I am not a fanboy for any of the systems, but I really hate Sony in general. They repeatedly screw the consumer, and yet you still suck their dick and pay them for it. This doesn't affect my opinion of the PS3, I'm just saying that I hate Sony.

I mean really, the only cool part about the ps3 is that they support linux and make it easy to install. Other than that, it's big and expensive, I really don't give a shit about graphics, xbox/ps2/gamecube graphics suit my needs (for now) just fine.

I will grade each console on Hardware and Games

Hardware
Processors:
XBOX 360 - 3 core PowerPC @ 3.2GHz
PS3 - 9 [IIRC] core cell processor @ 3.2GHz
Wii - Single core PowerPC @ 729MHz
(for reference)
XBOX - Single core Celeron Mobile (x86) @ 733MHz
Gamecube - Single core PowerPC @ 455MHz

The PS3 has the best processor hands down. The only one that could be better is the XBOX, because it is x86 (like any standard windows or "Intel Mac" computer) it is easier for homebrew developers to work with and easier to get Linux on

Ram:
XBOX 360 - 512MB @ 700MHz
PS3 - (I don't remember, it's likely equivelant to that of the XBOX 360)
Wii - 88MB @ (unkown)
(for reference)
XBOX - 64MB @ 200MHz
Gamecube - 24MB @ 324MHz

The little amount of RAM in the Wii worries me, but the gamecube had way less it it did just fine

Graphics:
XBOX 360 - 500MHz core, 512MB @ 700MHz memory
PS3 - (unknown) core, 256MB @ 700MHz memory
Wii - 243MHz core ATi
(for reference)
XBOX - 233MHz core nVidia
Gamecube - 162MHz core ATi

The XBOX 360 has more VRAM, though really it is a tie between it and the PS3

Network:
XBOX 360 - 10/100base-T ethernet (wireless adapter: $50)
PS3 - 10/100base-T ethernet (wireless in premium version only)
Wii - 802.11g WiFi and 10/100base-T ethernet (no wireless)
(for reference)
XBOX - 10/100base-T ethernet (no wireless)
Gamecube - [N/A]

Wii owns in network compatibility, it supports every type of WiFi encryption, it really has the best connectivity of all the consoles

Controllers:
XBOX 360 - Proprietary RF (4 max)
PS3 - [IIRC] Proprietary Bluetooth (7 max)
Wii - True Bluetooth
(for reference)
XBOX - [N/A]
Gamecube - Proprietary RF, not stock, "Wavebird"
7 max is nice, but do you really want to have 1/7th of a screen to play on? True Bluetooth means potential compatibility with other Bluetooth devices, and third party controllers

Games
XBOX 360 - A small amount of backwards compatibility with XBOX games, Halo 2 is great, Burnout: Revenge is great, Gears of War looks pretty good, Halo 3 is sure to be good
PS3 - Pretty good backwards compatibility, wireless Guitar Hero will be great (M$ won't make a wireless guitar hero guitar for xbox :/), FF series and Katamari Damacy series are the only games that set it apart from anything else...
Wii - COMPELTE backwards compatibility with gamecube, plus tons of other games from NES to N64 are available for download

Wii wins. Sure, the games are a bit childish, but goddamn they are by far the most fun. I've never met anyone who doesn't enjoy the occasional Mario Party, or Monkey Balls. The only reason I would play a PS2 is for Guitar Hero, Katamari Damacy, and FF, but those games are enough to make me own one. XBOX was the best FPS console, and I think XBOX 360 will continue that legacy. GRAW is okay if you are an FPS looser with a handle like "ph33rm31k177u", but I hate those kind of people who listen to SOAD and are generally complete loosers who you would never want to hang out with. Halo and Halo 2 are, as far as I'm concerned, the best FPS's ever made. The controls are simple and beautiful, it takes 5 minutes to learn and a lifetime to master (hopefully you aren't one of those level 50's on XBL who has spent their liftime mastering it :/)



Personally, I'd go buy a used XBOX1, mod it and run XBMC and play live (especially Halo 2), and buy a Wii, it's just an all around fun console. That's what I liked about the gamecube, none of this 4 hours to learn bullshit, you pick up a game and have fun, it's not about winning or losing. As for PS3/PS2, theres nothing really special about either of them, other than Katamari Damacy/Guitar Hero/FF.


Well now that I've scared everyone with my ~110 line post, lemme know what ya'll think, and for any sony fanboys, what do you see in them? I despise sony and their products are consistently lackluster, just run of the mill average.

[CityBoyGoneCountry]

I FUCKIN HATE NINTENDO!!

Nintendo has always put out nothing but fluffy puffy kiddie foo foo games. Fuck that. I want blood and guts and ass-kicking action. If someone doesn't die a horrible, painful, and completely senseless death, then I don't wanna play your stupid game.

360 Reasons to Love Xbox 360

You're both retarded. First off, what the fuck is a "wifi port"? That is rhetorical, wifi is wireless, you don't understand electronics, etc, etc.

Second off, XBOX live is a huge fuckin operation. They spend hundreds of thousands per month on it, and I would not be surprised if they loose money on it every month.
Normally I would agree that them charging you for it is bullshit, but look at how PS2 online turned it... truly horrible.

The problem with free accounts is that you are basically not accountable for your actions. When your first account gets shitty ratings, just make another, it's free! I mean, they could tie your reputation/etc to the console, but then what if you want to sell it? The new buyer has to deal with your rep and your stats? That sucks.

Another problem is that people will play a matchmaking game, get good at it, then create a new account and just pwn noobs. This happened in Halo 2, where people would get bored playing other level 40s and just make a new account, ripping level 5s etc apart. It really sucked to be in a game and just get destroyed by one person. If that was a problem when accounts were $50 (well less if it's a 2 month or 3 month, but you get the point), it is going to be awful with free accounts.

M$ is not "nickel and diming" you, and trust me, I hate them more than you. Just because Sony is willing to take a hit for you doesn't mean M$ is ripping you off.

I really hope that was a joke. I mean, I'm all up for gore and violence, I love Silent Hill and similar games, but goddamn, those nintendo games are fun and you're probably just being to macho to admit it.

Wii is the new nintendo console, have you been living under a rock? did you learn to type under that same rock?

Nah, I'm fuckin' with you, Wii is like an overclocked gamecube with AZN HAXXXZxzZX.
It's a console for people who aren't hardcore gamers (aka most people)

Please tell me you are drunk or similarly debilitated. There is plenty of XBOX live cheating, gameshark has nothing to do with that ore any other type of online cheating. Most cheaters get banned off XBL pretty quickly, but it does happen. And uh, downloading music to lag is not cheating, I don't know what you're talking about.

well ye thats how controllers work lol just kiddin sounds kwl.

and ye my typin isa bit fucked but i cba lol

[t3chyo]

yeah but think about it this way... the whole time you're paying for xbox live, after purchasing the system, you're going to end up paying just as much as the person who went with the ps3 and get their connection for free... and it's service sucks because you have to pay for it, there's absolutely no reason why playstation can offer free connection, while xbox can't, they just want to milk you for every penny and they are... that's just why i hate xbox live, i have even more reasons why i hate xbox period...

Its service sucks cause you have to pay for it.....LOL. The service is only good because you have to pay for it, what you said is contridicting in a wierd reversed way...who knows, maybe PlayStation offers a free online service because the the system is $600! You could think of it this way, you could buy the premium ($400) xbox 360 system + 4 years of xboxlive gold member subcription($200) for the price of one PlayStation 3. Xbox live offers downloaded demos, HD game trailers, HD movie trailers, xbox live arcade to download and even play them through xbox live, plus more. All the PlayStation 3 offers only a friend list per-game that switches for each game, lame. Xbox live will be offering tv shows and HD movies to download to your harddrive pretty soon here as well...

Now I didn't want to get into this debate, but with you not stating any good points, for example "..it sucks because you have to pay for it" I had to do it.

[Mercsix8six]

thats bullocks totaly and u know that so stick it oh and yeah xbl cheaters get cought but all they ahve to do is get another mbership card and start over dude

[Canadabis]

No video games, no bitch :thumbsup:

[t3chyo]

You're both retarded. First off, what the fuck is a "wifi port"? That is rhetorical, wifi is wireless, you don't understand electronics, etc, etc.

Second off, XBOX live is a huge fuckin operation. They spend hundreds of thousands per month on it, and I would not be surprised if they loose money on it every month.
Normally I would agree that them charging you for it is bullshit, but look at how PS2 online turned it... truly horrible.

The problem with free accounts is that you are basically not accountable for your actions. When your first account gets shitty ratings, just make another, it's free! I mean, they could tie your reputation/etc to the console, but then what if you want to sell it? The new buyer has to deal with your rep and your stats? That sucks.

Another problem is that people will play a matchmaking game, get good at it, then create a new account and just pwn noobs. This happened in Halo 2, where people would get bored playing other level 40s and just make a new account, ripping level 5s etc apart. It really sucked to be in a game and just get destroyed by one person. If that was a problem when accounts were $50 (well less if it's a 2 month or 3 month, but you get the point), it is going to be awful with free accounts.

M$ is not "nickel and diming" you, and trust me, I hate them more than you. Just because Sony is willing to take a hit for you doesn't mean M$ is ripping you off.

please don't call me a retard just because I've been rusty on my electronic terms. I can see through your post, the way you talk, I see you as what you saw as me.

Also I would like to point out that I don't own any of the three systems and havnt read up too much of them and I still know more than half the people here...comon...

[Mercsix8six]

all hard work and play makes timmy go craxy beotch.

[CityBoyGoneCountry]

I really hope that was a joke. I mean, I'm all up for gore and violence, I love Silent Hill and similar games, but goddamn, those nintendo games are fun and you're probably just being to macho to admit it.

I'm serious.

Most of my favorite games are First Person Shooters or Real Time Strategy. I don't like those lame FPS games though, the ones where you have ridiculous weapons and shit. I like Call of Duty, Black Hawk Down, and those kinds of shooters.

Tenchu also provided me with hours and hours of entertainment. Sneaking up on people and cutting their throats rocks!

I bought Rome: Total War. But my video card isn't good enough to play the game. :mad:

Maybe I'll buy myself a new video card for christmas.

oh shit seriously? lol seems like just yesterday (but i guess it would have been months and months) i first started hearing about the Wii.... hmm.. i guess things seem to come out alot faster if you don't actually want them, or atleast want them that bad... as for what you said about making accounts and pwning noobs, it doesn't matter if you make them pay for it, or if it's free, people are still going to do that, having to set up a new account even when it's a paid-service, isn't impossible you know... yeah people make new accounts just to pwn noobs, but you know why that doesn't bother me? because they feel they suck so bad that they have to make a new account, to come back and decimate the people who have no clue wth they're even doing, and still trying to figure everything out, imo that just makes you pathetic, the only game i really make new accounts for is killzone, and that's not so i can go pwn noobs, i just get tired of my name, and the only way to rank on that game is by killing people with status... i'm starting to see more and more games like this too, basicly you can be an ass and pwn the noobs if you want, but it's nto going to do you any real good...

man, I'm sorry, but all your arguments are just about one thing that is just a biased opinion...

[Mercsix8six]

i just like killing ppl and taking in ther souls ...ur souls are mine

IIRC, the EEPROM gets banned, they can buy a new physical eeprom and desolder the old one, and resolder the newone, but cheaters are little kids, not modders. They can buy 256bytes from an eeprom for about $10, softmod their boxen and put on the new eeprom, unlokc/relock the hard drive with the new key, and then go on live again, but like I said before, very few cheaters are skilled enough/willing to do this. If they have a chipped xbox, it will take them about $10 and 5 minutes to get a new eeprom, if they are a cheater with a chipped box they might do that.

But for the most part once cheaters get banned, they stop cheating.

I throw the term retard around loosely, it's not electronic terms, it's just the fact that you would think something wireless would need a "port", combined with using that retarded theory against sony. I'm all for sony bashing, but don't do it unless you know what you're talking about.

I totally agree with you about it being stupid, but that doesn't mean it won't happen. $50 is a decent amount of cash to throw around, they will do it once, maybe twice. When it's free, they can do it whenever they want, and I really think this is going to be a problem.

Yeah the Wii came out, and there were hundreds of thousands more Wii's than PS3's around.

[Mercsix8six]

yes i must of siad that using it as a perhiperal right wifi is wireless blu tooth is completly wireless and only using a chip as a reciever right.

[Mercsix8six]

man milein are way long the ones waiting for the ps3 so shut the fuck up lol jk nah but hey they are both pretty long

You're making a big deal about a typo? I know what you're saying about wi-fi not needing a port, yes I know it doesnt, You stating that its a fact that I believe theres such thing as a wi-fi port shows how quick you are to judge and you must be an ass in real lifeI typed too fast. Must of been thinking ethernetPORT in my head as I was typing it. You stating that its a fact that I believe theres such thing as a wi-fi port shows how quick you are to judge and how much of an ass you must be in real life Someone who talks as intellegent as you in this field using the word "retard" all the time makes me lose respect for you, not that you needed it.

[pu ekot]

Uhm...
I have no idea what you just said.
WiFi is wireless TCP/IP, aka wireless internet.
Bluetooth is mainly used in cellphones, it's not designed for TCP/IP (internet), it's shorter range and kinda low bandwidth.

[Mercsix8six]

heyyy realy i didnt know that.

[slipknotpsycho]

why do i have idiots biting my ass because of what i feel... i'm sorry, sony has proven themselves worthy of being in the gaming community, xbox? has one damn famous title ONE! UNO! no more, halo and that's it.. and i'll be damned if i'm going to pay for an xbox, games, internet, THEN HAVE TO PAY A SUBSCRIPTION FEE to play online, tell me one single way xbox live is any different OR BETTER then ps online? and i don't mean what the games online offer, just the connection... it's not any faster, it's not any better, there are more than likely just as many glitchers on xbox as ps... so what makes it so much better, the only diffrence i see is you have to pay for it, which makes it fucking plain out suck.. why pay for something when you can get it for free.. besides, like i said, xbox has one famous title and that's it, sure there are games that are 'famous' that are on all the major systems, but that's not an xbox exclusive game... to me, the years it's been out, and the games they have for it, are a direct example of the quality of the system cuz we all know a system isn't anything without games...

as for the wii, i'm anintendo hater sue me, i also think it's stupid that this whole system was built around a controller, a new concept of a controller... i bet you it offers nothing more than game cube, or n64 has offered before.. like i said, a system is shit without the games to go with it, a nd nintendo as you can see what i quoted, produces shitty kiddy games... what have they had so far as a real game? golden eye and it's sister, perfect dark? oh yeah, i have the same argument because that's, in my opinion the strongest argument that can be made about the system, the controller design is less than crappy.... and has anyone even begun to think of how limited the games will end up being because of how the controller works? just wait a couple of years... the only two systems that will have any real debate in the entire gaming issue is xbox and ps, Wii just fails miserably, ok so it's a great console for kids, more than 50% of games and game systems sold are sold for adults, or soon to be adults... not kids...

as for how many ps3's there are and shit, as said a few posts above me, yeah i know, i think it was a dumb idea on their side to release just so many and cause such an uproar, of course it makes everyone want to rush out and get their hands on the ps3 cuz they don't know when they'll have the chance again, but overall it was just a dumb idea.... they should have waited til they could put more in every store... but then again, they may have just put out so many to detect any problems with it they need to fix before a full fledged release... i remember when 360 FIRST came out, nearly everyone that got their hands on one, was returning it within a few days... maybe sony just wanted to make sure the system held up ok before they released everything they had..

Chill man, I'm not trying to be a dick, the thing that sucks about the internet is that when you say "retard" everyone assumes you are malicios, there is no body language or tone of voice online. It's not a typo, a type is like "teh". You said that sony is nickel and diming people by including "6 wifi ports". You obviously though that a) wifiports are expensive b) 6 wifi ports is excessive c) wifi ports exist. If you had just said "wifi ports" and not used it to criticize sony, I wouldn't have called you a retard. You're a retard because you tried to criticize sony with something ridiculous even in theory. I mean, come on, one time my stupid friend said "where the wifi cable?" and realized what a stupid comment that was in about 5 seconds. Needless to say we spent a good 3 minutes laughing about it.

Lighten up, I'm not a bad person, I wasn't judging you, I was just saying you said something stupid. Clearly you have judged me as an ass who has nothing better to do than fuck with people on the internet. It is not so.

[Mercsix8six]

thread is outa control now now reset...reset ....damit the reset button broke.

[Mercsix8six]

[pu ekot]

wow, you are out of your mind, eh?
Yeah one of the reasons I don't like the PS2/3 is because pretty much every good game that you can get on it is available on all the other consoles too.

[Mercsix8six]

oh and yes im half dead so plx treat me kindly plx lol
