Curse you Microsoft! - Page 4

quote unclebobert87

Everything is equal by the fact they play games. Graphics may be different on each system, but so what? My PS3 is a gaming console and thats all i need it to do. I don't care for XGC or any other thing that Sony or Microsoft have to offer

quote unclebobert87

I don't really care for exclusives. Fair enough, some might appeal to some people but not me. Yeah, i got my PS3 for GT5, but i wanted a PS3 anyway because i had 3 360's crap out on me within 6 months.

My point is, PS3's and 360's essentially do the same job, which is play games.

quote doomed_soul89

off consoles that only play a few games play games right? Are those pieces of shit equal to ps3 and 360? ps3 and 360 are not equal, almost nothing is equal so stop pretending they are so you can think your fav console is better then it is.

What the hell is your problem, dude? The guy isn't some raving fanboy. He gave an unbiased, well thought out opinion about his perception that the consoles all kind of, sort of do the same thing. He didn't foam at the mouth defending his console choice and attacking yours.

Saying everything is equal isn't unbiased. Also saying they both play games so they are equal isn't well thought out either. Almost nothing is equal randomly saying everything is, is automatically biased.

Well since you're OBVIOUSLY RIGHT on EVERYTHING, then maybe you should take that ginormous IQ you have which makes Hawking jealous along with your accumulated wisdom of the ancients which seems to put Confucius and Sun-Tsu and Buddha and Christ and Plato to shame and do something worthwhile with it like solve hunger in Africa or peace in the Middle East or something.

But if the best thing you can do with your time is come off like an obsessive and overly negative argumentalist towards people who are just trying to converse with you in a reasonable fashion, then why bother?

quote ChiroVette

The difference is, doomed_soul89, you have been nothing but confrontational and overly aggressive this whole thread, misrepresenting the position of people you disagree with, and using these straw men as a basis to attack people. Oh and Mac didn't insult you, he called you on your bullshit.

Get it right.

doomed_soul89, you're not going to last very long here, I can tell. Let's start with this:

You do realize that those crappy knock off consoles that only play a few games play games right? Are those pieces of shit equal to ps3 and 360? ps3 and 360 are not equal, almost nothing is equal so stop pretending they are so you can think your fav console is better then it is.

You created a straw man in your alleged argument against unclebobert here. What that means, in case you don't know, is you intentionally misrepresented his position in order to try to make him look bad. He was making the point that, in a very real sense, all the consoles are the same in that they are all machines that play games. He was saying that in his opinion, exclusives don't matter very much, if at all, and then also expressed his dissatisfaction that he had three 360s fail in a short period of time. His ONLY point was that the consoles are more similar than they are different.

Now ANY sane person would have gotten that pretty obvious meaning from his post, but not you! Instead, you launched on an unprovoked, unwarranted attack of his ideas by (again) misrepresenting his position to make him look bad, AS IF he was ranting and raving like some foaming-at-the-mouth fanboy, when his post, while expressing an opinion, was measured and reasonable.

That, is what we call being a shit-stirrer.

quote ChiroVette

I don't need to, doomed_soul89, you know why? Because I know exactly what he meant. He was NOT making some kind of a fanboy rant (as you more than hinted at) but was trying to look at the common ground that the two consoles share as "game machines."

It doesn't take a master code-breaker to read the obvious meaning and intent of a man who is trying to DISCUSS an issue rather than argue about it. My initial post to you, which by the way you also overreacted to, was trying to alert you to the fact that you were acting in a disrespectful and needlessly aggressive manner toward a guy who was NOT saying what you accused him of saying.
