@evo, "Interactive Cutscene" is my statement, not a question. The ongoing discussion between Thrust & me is on the machines gfx capabilities but not the game quality, so... For game bashing or hardcore fanboyism, it's better to bring it outside whether you are on the ps3 or 360 boot camp. Please don't force me into...user posted image
What goes around comes around. From "gamespot = Microsoft paid gaming site --> Gamespot is BIAS after a few ps3 games getting bad reviews --> Gamespot is awesome after 1 GOTY! --> Gamespot full of Sony Fanboys!"

See the vicious cycle? It all happens in 2008, there are many in LYN who join in the fun too. Hypocrite calling hypocrite a hypocrite...nothing new. That's how the fanboy crumble, fanboyism is what fuel the console market. As for me I would respect an honest sensible fanboy more so than a fanboy in disguise, you see.
Why stop there?  biggrin.gif I would also like to see your source of bad years for 360 because from my FBI source, it's pretty well spread out for all 3 platform. (unless your source is SDF, lol)
However, the consumer are voting with their wallet for Wii games which top the chart with 360 & ps3 trailing behind. So if you ask me, it's a bad year for both ps3 & 360 laugh.gif

I feel for you though because your gaming experience are dictated by the press & journalism.
*
i stopped because i'm nt a fanboy simple as that lol...
you as a mod should know better rather than provoking console fanboy war...
sorry but i'm nt a tool as u hope i am to start a fanboy war...
and to me, u jz lost my respect for u as a mod for trying to ignite fanboy war...

jz stating a fact that has proven itself through 2 big gaming websites which is why i stated IGN as well and not only gamespot...
and as david jaffe said, comparing a wii to a ps3 (and also the 360 in this context) is like comparing an apple to an orange...

its jz mindless bashing of a good game by fanboys who dun get to play it and know nothing about it...
when they do get to play it, they worship it like god...
stating the obvious does not make u a hypocrite as u claimed...
i think the previous mgs4 so called porting rumor to the 360 thread has already proved it (bashing mgs4 b4 the rumor, supporting it during the rumor and bashing after the rumor)...

check my posts and slowly reflect...
am i a gamer or a fanboy...
you on the other hand...
hmmm i dunno...
threatening me when i'm defending a good game and not the console itself?
how far has fanboyism goes over here?

glad i learn a new thing today...
ending a sentence with a question mark is a not a question but a statement...

Tsk tsk tsk... why all the argument... why can't we all just get along... PS3 gamers, Xbox 360 gamers, Wii gamers. If there were to be a comparison between platforms, there is no end to it. Its just like arguing whether... UFOs exist or not.

2009 - PS3's year
2009 - Xbox 360's year

Both platforms are going to do considerably well. Its up to the consumer as to which platform he/she prefers or owns.

then i get shot by a big shot lol...
he even tried to brought up the wii LOL...

forza3 still nt announced rite though i'm pretty sure it would be out this year for sure (especially with the rumored gt5)...

I beg your pardon, how am i provoking the fanboy war?

-2 gaming site, so you only pick the one that favors you? There are tons more out there - eurogamer, gamestrailer, your favourite VGA awards, 1up, x-play etc. I don't know where you get the idea it's a bad year for 360. That's still not fanboyism?
-I know fighting fanboys will keep the spirit up & high, but who is bashing MGS4 here apart from techno?

Threatening you? Sorry, I am merely pointing out your flaws of argument. If you disagree, you can always rebuked with facts or opinion but not misleading opinion as fact. How I am threatening you?

look back at ur post which i quote...
then u can see it pretty clearly where the so called threat is...
i dun like to point out the obvious...

again u dun expect me to quote all the websites especially when i need to dig all those websites jz to prove my point?
on top of my head are ign and gamespot as these are the 2 main websites i go to (besides kotaku n magicbox)...
i dun need to go all out to prove a point when i'm defending a game, not a console...
i could go all out with pcgamer mag's top 10 games of 2008, the VGA which as u claimed would suit my points well as well...
why didn't i?
heck i even know a website that gave LBP GoTY...
only fanboys would go all out to post everything!
why would i say that GeoW2 is the best example of what the power of the 360 can bring when i'm looking to bash the console which i'm nt?

i'm quoting those who have misconception about mgs4 and its cutscenes...
what can be done during the cutscenes moment and how long is the game when played to the fullest which is falsely claimed...
i dun remember bashing u in defence of mgs4 or any1 else (not even techno)

ps: i dun see how that question mark would make it a statement... if i misunderstood ur statement, i appologized for it...


Added on January 11, 2009, 1:51 pmps v2: i never said its a bad year for 360... i said not really a good year for 360 exclusives... and i sitll stand by it... u can never catch me rant about a 360 game from 2008...

This will help you refresh your memory
If you still couldn't figure out why you are giving ppl an impression your a fanboy in disguise, give me a holler.


I hate to list this out because it makes me look really stupid as if I need this to justify my investment in 360 doh.gif
VGA? Gears of War 2 won 2 awards...& left 4 dead for pc/360. Where your statistic come from?
x-play - Fable 2 GOTY?
Eurogamers - I will let you check out the top 50 yourself. Ask again if you insist that I list everything out for you.
edit : I googled, here's the whole list for your viewing pleasure.

Really, just check all the game sites yourself. Visit gamerankings if you really like for the average rating....You could even list out all the 360 exclusive above the rating of 8 as base since all of these matter so much to you.

So, where do you get your whacky idea of 2008 360 exclusive = bad year & majority awards = ps3? I really don't see it, because to me it's pretty even!



Edited 2 : er...you are quoting my whole post, so basically my whole post is a threat? Sound the alarm!!!!!!

PS : ok you edit, change to "360 2008 exclusive = bad year" then.
*
i would not change something i never stated jz because u ask me to...
u are a mod, u can check my edit histroy...
did i said bad year or did i said not really a good year...
and all of this is about exclusives on the 360...
again i never bash any 360 games as being bad/ worthless/ terrible etc...
using ur list, u can see that its nt really a good year for the 360 when they were sweeping awards with GeoW back in 2007...

as for the link history u post, that time was comparing console, not games...
check and see if i said get the console to suit ur exclusive needs...
check and see if i did claimed its jz to counter all to bad baseless remarks given to the 360...
and in the thread itself, u shut me off by closign the thread once the 360 fanboys were speechless from the rebuke on their claims on: -
- ps3 dun have good games
- ps3 dun have online

I only do the moderating when I am free, at that point of time...That thread is meaningless and just spamming all the way, what do u want to rebuke after your last post @ Dec 24 2008, 10:36 PM Tell me because I see nothing, you are free to do it now if you believe it's unfair to you. Don't you think I am doing you a favour by shutting out the "xbots" chance of countering you? laugh.gif
I am not even gona point out the irony of your fanboy post in that thread which contradict your points here. However, do tell if you think I am just making things up.

@bolded part.
It can only be better competition either from the same or different platform, but I still don't get your "majority of awards go to ps3" "2008 bad year for 360 exclusive"? If you wana bring the fanboy war to next level, look closely at all the media awards. There are actually more awards for 360 games...but multi-platform games are the one sweeping awards. I think your point of argument are backfiring on you.

once again...
i never said its a bad year for 360...
i said not really a good year for the 360...
its the 3rd time i'm repeating this if i'm nt mistaken...

as for the other thread, why i nvr chose to pursue it?
i'm nt that petty...
i've already stated my claims that the ps3 bad as some claimed it is...
i never said its superior over the 360 in any way...
if i do, u wont see me defending games like fable2, GeoW2 etc...
i've even defended fable 2 when some guy quoted the SDF article on fable 2 and i'm labeled as fanboy?
just look at wut i've posted so far in this thread and u can pretty much see it clearly...
do remember this is xbox subforum, don't u think i will get shot to oblivion if i'm a sony fanboy?


Added on January 11, 2009, 2:48 pmps on ur edited part: i am aware some of the points may backfire, but i'm nt looking for an argument here but rather a discussion... thus i posted them...

yup. almost everyday. biggrin.gif
if MGS4 were a hollywood movie, being the last one in the quintology, critics will call it as rushed with erratic pacing.
why? because it tries hard to resolve everything that's been done thru out the series within this one movie.

lol. brainless.
so you are saying that millions new 360 users will pirate their games?
do you even know how hard it is to pirate a game outside asia?
especially in the US where most ppl are not that IT savvy?

if you are smart, you will know that in any product, price point will make a difference.
normal layman will look at ps3's games and compare it with 360's and say they look identical.
then they compare the pricing of the machines.
360 looks more appealing since it's cheaper.

that's why it's selling more than ps3.

of coz you get ppl who don't care about graphics and just look at the price, the Wii buyers.

if you don't have anything good to add to the thread, please stick to your ps3 forum.
coming in here and posting one liner makes you look like a retard. period.

"Bad year" or "not really a good year compare to ps3"...how much difference can it be with the whole context of your post when...the most obvious one:
QUOTE(evofantasy @ Dec 24 2008, 07:09 PM)
gamespot is owned by cnet (which is under microsoft) and over the past years been very bias to the xbox (see their resistance 2 preview) and yet this year, ps3 titles been doing great...

1.Backfired.
2.Fanboyism traits - if the game site agree with you, it's neutral. If it doesn't, it's bias.

Along with other post of yours, this is why you have a suggestive title of fanboy in disguise. No offense. You really can't blame anyone with that kinda post of yours.

QUOTE(evofantasy @ Jan 11 2009, 02:47 PM)

i'm nt that petty...
Actually, on that thread you are the one that keep pursuing while others have already stop replying or even care. I gave you a hint but it seems that my awesome manglish failed to send the message.


BTW, what makes you think "xbots" here must shoot you down in the xbox subforum laugh.gif You even openly challenge the Xbots by calling it - defend your own turf, yet nobody seems to take you seriously.
There might be lots of "rumours" about xbots bashing mgs4 or ps3 but i dare say most of it are imaginary. At least the one who are active on forum/xbl. Fanboy in a fight is the only way to keep their spirit burning. There are new & old trolls alike everywhere else, it's not a 360 exclusive laugh.gif As long as everyone keep things civil then...ok? It could be something as light as a football match discussion.

Sorry if I sound like a threat to you, but I am just a keyboard warrior and I have no intention of threatening anyone. biggrin.gif
As for others, you & I are only clowns to them. Carry on or you can contribute to this thread by answering the TS TS question.

lol that was other thread...
if u didnt notice, in the resistance 2 preview, the editor claimed that the hedgebomb in resistance 2 is copied from halo 2 or halo 3 (u can check all the flames to that editor and last i heard, he was fired or something after a long time)...
that's when i started labeling gamespot as bias and yet i got shot a fanboy? lol...
and yes, despite gamespot being bias, it gave ps3 games good reviews this year as well as 360 games (fable2n GeoW2)...
thus i stand by my claimed that ps3 exclusives has already made a turnaround having a better year thus a not really good year for the 360 exclusives...

though it puzzled me, why are u sitll digging that thread lol...
that time the ps3 was under heavy fire lol and i think i stated it very clear, it was jz to defend the ps3...

besides again after giving my facts and some minor 'resistance', the rest of them could not come out with a counter argument to backed their claims on the ps3 suckiness...
and with the thread closed, the whole 'if' scenario is in question now which is of course too late...
cause the locking came after my challenge which is a result of their silence after getting shot with facts that the ps3 does not suck...

if u still regard me a fanboy its up to u...
i'll defend whichever console under atk (u can check my post history, i've defended the 360, ps3 and the wii as well)...
and if u notice, i never actually bash any games (other than casual games and some mmorpg lol)...

if u want me to answer the TS, there is no need for me to...
the others have already answered no which i agreeed...
if ppl are already happily paying u, do u want them to stop paying?

oh ya, u are not a threat to me...
threatening and being a threat is a different thing...
though i wont pursue this issue any further...

@ techno
i'm in pg now...
and i nvr went manawex b4 till nw...
mostly playing in prereleases/ releases and regionals only...
