Don't speak for me, b/c I'm american and I happen not to be a fan of the Xbox.
is it comprehensible.....
This statement is just crap, no offense. First you say that the person is wrong for saying that GTA and Halo are the only main games for the 2 systems and that if this was so that everyone would have a gamecube. (you're obviously telling the other person they're incorrect in their statment about this). Then you go on to say, "so Nintendo must be doing some wrong", you just said the person's statement was incorrect and then you go on to say something that implies that theirstatment is correct.
You can't have it both ways just because you dislike the Gamecube, which is doing well by the way.
First of all I dont dislike the GC because I they have some pretty good games, second of all my statement has to do with the fact that out of the 3 systems, most people would choose either a PS2 or XBOX first before a GC (ask your friends what they would choose... I did), and finally your reply makes absoluty no sense (no offense), you just answered your own question with what you typed in the reply. I never agreed to anything in his statement, all I did was say it makes me angry when people say or only give the obvious example implying thats the only game good on that system.

Obviously, you don't see what I'm talking about. You start off saying how that statement is incorrect and you're tired of people responding that way and then you go on to say if that was true then"......" and then you say "so.......".
Do you see? The thing you said "would be true" you later defend. You say it's not true and then you roll with it and support it.
I dont really see what your responding too, explain it please, and this time dont pull single words out of what I typed and change it into what your saying.
I don't see how alot of those reasons make the PS3 worth owning instead of a 360.
Not saying the PS3 won't be good, but all this "PS3 pwns j00" fanboy nonsense is irritating.

Oh yeah, and 7 controllers? If you're going to have that many why not 8? 7 seems like a rather odd number to choose, and I don't see how you could play, say, Killzone 2 with a screen split 7 ways.

Not really. You would need a MASSIVE TV, most of us don't have massive TVs, not ones to accommodate a screen split 7 ways...

I'm not even sure you need that many to begin with. Who has honestly had over 7 people in their house to play games with? And i think it's games that don't use split screen, like sports games and maybe games like Smash Bros.

lol...ive had uhhmm i think 22 or 23 people before when i threw a party and people were like drunk and stuff taking turns beating people in tekken 5...it was funny. and then when the orignal halo came out my friends thought it was the best game ever and i went to rusty's house because he's really rich and people would play uhhmm i think its called system link on like 3 different tv's. lol. those were fun times.

First and foremost I like backwards compatibility because I still like most of my games on my old system, just because I have a new system doesn't mean I play just that. I play my snes and genesis for christ sakes.
I liked Killzone, the multiplayer anyways...

OK, I was going to wait until I get linking privys to reply to this, but I got anxious, what can I say. This is one of the final paragraphs from a tech review on the 360's Xenon CPU, a very good and informative read IMO:
"At any rate, Playstation 3 fanboys shouldn't get all flush over the idea that the Xenon will struggle on non-graphics code. However bad off Xenon will be in that department, the PS3's Cell will probably be worse. The Cell has only one PPE to the Xenon's three, which means that developers will have to cram all their game control, AI, and physics code into at most two threads that are sharing a very narrow execution core with no instruction window. (Don't bother suggesting that the PS3 can use its SPEs for branch-intensive code, because the SPEs lack branch prediction entirely.) Furthermore, the PS3's L2 is only 512K, which is half the size of the Xenon's L2. So the PS3 doesn't get much help with branches in the cache department. In short, the PS3 may fare a bit worse than the Xenon on non-graphics code, but on the upside it will probably fare a bit better on graphics code because of the seven SPEs."
Word is it's from, cough,..arstechnica dot,...cough,..you know what, an article titled "Inside the Xbox 360 Part II". (Well, at least it's not an actual link.)
Personally, I've not even seen or heard of any evidence of AI, physics, or control capabilities lacking in any of the 360 titles, which is one of the things the article goes into detail about in saying the 360 CPU is hard to write for. As the above paragraph states though, he feels the PS3 will be even worse at these things.
Obviously either of these consoles will have graphics capabilities far exceeding their predecessors, but I likes my AI to be spot on too, and what good are great graphics without good physics to compliment it, not to mention control function that isn't clumsy or laggy.
It's too soon to really say how they will really compare though, I just thought I'd throw this out for anyone that wants to read a more techy than usual article on the guts on these things.

Probably next christmas or so...and maybe you should try an actual vieo game store instead of Best Buy and Wal-Mart. Try Gamestop, EB Games, places like that. Or even online.

Yeah, i've found many stores online were selling them including walmart. I just never heard about them being in the wal mart stores and other's only best buys. And I don't live near "game" stores so I rarely go in them, but just the other week I went to a mall and went into Ebgames I think it was , and they had 3 xbox 360s.
And it's been said that people will be able to just walk in a store and purchase a Xbox 360 in March.
Damnit, why won't time hurry up, it's like Time is teasing me right now, why is that whenever i'm really looking forward to something, Time slows down? I want my the goods to come out already!!!
Oh yah, is there any official word on when the Rev will come out? (i know that the PS3 isn't coming out for a while)

PS3 will come out in spring like March or April unless they decide to delay the launch. They say they are remodeling the controller because it looks like a boomerange, too many complaints.
