  1. Was that the one where you joined the navy or had a gender re-assignment?
  2. After which no other games would be necessary or possible, thus killing the industry off. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> yes.. but you wouldn't need any other game so then why have an industry? and of course my game would only cost you your soul.. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I think I've played that one ...
  3. Or having intelligent actors in the game mechanics, whereby the game learns how the player thinks and adapts to make the game new and challenging every time.
  4. Not if you made them so that you wouldn't.
  5. But ... you can play the games, too, if you are the overlord ...
  6. WTF?! I never said that. Where the hell did you get that from? You stated that you can't put the two consoles in the same category when comparing their sales figures and I disagree with that. I never implied that you said one console is better than the other, this is about sales figures here, buddy. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I didn't imply that you said otherwise; I was merely making it clear that I do not favour one console over the other. I.e. I am not trying to prove one is "better" than the other. The PS2 is JUST a games console. The XBox 360 is a NEXT GENERATION living room internet interface. It runs Windows XP Media Center 2005. It will plug seemlessly into a Windows network, for streaming multimedia to any conntected devlice (Viiv). So people who want to have a media PC that plays console games will buy an XBox 360, not a PS2 (unless they also buy a media PC). When the PS3 is released, it will ALSO be a NEXT GENERATION living room internet interface. In fact, it will (apparently) ship with Linux. The next gen machines are not just console game stations, they are (hopefully) bridging that precarious gap between geek home-office and lay-person living room. Apples and oranges. Any coincidental similarity will not be bourne out as the market matures: it is a false comparison.
  7. Yes. :D
  8. If you are talking about the actual person get your facts right. Erzs
  9. Is caffawkling fun?
  10. thanks for spamming.
  11. That's from Terminator 2.
  12. It would not be good for competition, methinks ... if it precludes the mix and match of Intel - ATi and AMD - nVidia.
  13. Aerodynamic. :D
  14. What types of movies are you making?
  15. Um, what? The PS2 is a video game console that plays DVD's, the Xbox 360 is a video game console that plays DVDs. They're both billed as video game machines, it's not apples to oranges. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Exactly. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> No. You are both oversimplifying the market. Wrong. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> No we're not man. Don't say we're wrong like you're god and know everything, you're not and you're wrong about this. You're not comparing apples to oranges like you say, the PS2 and 360 are both video game consoles that use the same media format how can you not put the 2 in the same category? This isn't like comparing the N64 to the PS2 where you have 2 different types of media(cd-rom and cart) and one system does more than the other. The PS2 and 360 both use DVD, both can get online to play games, both allow you to watch DVD movies, both have these things called controllers, and funny enough, both connect to your TV. What doesn't the PS2 do that the 360 does? Is it because the PS2 isn't labeled a "next-gen" console? But then again, what exactly are you comparing here? If it's sales figures then they fall into the same category, if it's tech specs then the 360 has the clear advantage and it's not really a fair comparison or if it's games then the PS2 has the advantage. I'm looking at the sales figures and they're telling me that more people are buying a PS2 over a 360. People want games and the 360 doesn't have them.......yet. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Read what I wrote AGAIN. I did not say that one console was better than the other. (That is YOUR erroneous inference). I simply stated that the PS2 and XBox 360 are different consumer electronics, and thus exist in slightly different markets. Like four wheel drive vehicles and compact cars, just because they both run on an internal combustion engine and people use them to get from A to B, doesn't mean they are the same. If you do not know why they are different, you may ask or (better yet) do some research: the PS2 is not competing directly with the XBxo 360, the XBox 360 is trying to be a living room interface to the internet (hence "next-gen"), not just a games console. Hence comparing their sales figures will only lead to poor conclusions. If you don't understand that, then I can't explain it any clearer than that. Actually, I am just as likely to but an XBox 360 at this point FOR THAT REASON, as I will eventually be looking for a living room internet computer.
  16. Make sure it's not a REALLY BIG BALL, though, otherwise you make sink the ship. :ph34r:
  17. Is that an accidental butt?
  18. I have unimpeacable sources.
  19. Also, there are a better quality of girl to meet at university.
  20. Poets of the Fall: Signs of Life
  21. Hey, waitaminute! Those Maloks in Space Rangers 2 look awfully like orcs, now I think about it ...
  22. Yes, but I hardly think the Finnish should giving advice about dealing with emotions. ... You guys are more repressed than the British (and that's saying something!) As Jim said, the poster may be in an isolated place, and is seeking to find words for his grief.
  23. Um ... maybe if you discussed something, like how much you enjoyed a particular thing (that you enjoyed from the film)? Funnily enough, I haven't seen and I'm not rushing out to, either. Maybe your crisp review will change my mind? PS Asin is the best one there.
