The Ultimate Fanboy Thread - vent your spleen here, fighting encouraged

I don't really think of your bit as North London when getting angry about it, to be fair. Living their implies a bit of thought or consideration. What I hate is people blinding living in North London because they heard it was cool in The London Paper. In fairness, Clapham is just as bad if not worse.

who does that consdiering that the entire reach of the london paper which came out 2 years ago is central london. Hey i was living in west london but i read on the tube north was where it's at so i moved...who are these people?

and technically at least the ps3 has games which the xbox will never have and on a massive HD screen there's a marked difference in visual quality of games for the ps3 over the xbox. the xb has an ealier grpahics card limited by also the hardware factor of not being a new gen dvd drive (hd dvd drives not withstanding) and the fact that ms have said they will not release a br drive for the xb means that as games progress now they've learnt how to program for the ps3 means that it will become the dream cast.

put it this way with near unlimited funds to spend on games recently there hasn't been one released on the xb and ps3 which i've bought for the xb, not one i've even bought some games for the wii over the xb (party games admittiedly).

the problem with early technology adoption is that there are rarely anything good on the system when it comes out both the ps3 and the wii suffered from this this time round by virtue of being newer than the xb which was out nearly an entire year before them.
 
First bit... :D

Second bit... Well, for me it's because I don't like the Xbox controllers, never have. The originals were truly hideous, and the newer ones aren't much better. That and the BluRay, which really swang it. Oh, and there seem to be less PS3 fanbois... :D

'Cos there are far less PS3 owners.


Says an adoptive Londoner!!! Besides, I bet I pay fuck loads less rent and have a much nicer garden than you, though! Oh, and I can probably get to London gigs about as quick as you can anyway... ;)

See! See! Smug as fuck. "We even got Pippy into a super primary school in Clifton. I just couldn't live in London anymore. The lifestyle here is just ssooooo much more in line with our world view". AAAAARGH.

(I pay £720 mortgage on a beautiful Victorian maisonette with a garden and 2 bedrooms :p)

the original controls were much better !! FACT ! They were egnormic. and blu-ray is not as innovative a original dvds. so much fud. :rolleyes:

People that move in after Uni and live in a white, middle-class bubble of gastropubs and bars. Max Gogarty land.

So how do you explain that the 360 constantly beats the PS3 when it comes to graphics on cross platform titles?

Besides, most of the PS3 exclusives look likely to come over to the 360. It'll never become a Dreamcast 'cos it's install base is too high. By the time Sony start to dominate, the 720 will be out and breaking all over the place!

Won't you need more room when you get your Mrs Preggers, dahling?

*snigger*

:D

How were DVDs 'innovative'? They used a red laser, same as a CD player, as opposed to a blue laser, which took ages to develop - pretty innovative if you ask me.

'Cos there are far less PS3 owners.

Nah, it's cos we're all secure in the tech specs of our consoles and don't feel inferior...
 
oh and anotherthing xb live is totally shite. far far far far to many utter wankers on line who spawn kill and team kill. the ps3 cost prevent half those brats from getting on their and it makes for a much better online experince. I really wish xblive had some way of you setting a personal age restriction to prevent brats from coming into your games

Plenty of room to raise a child... maybe even 2 if we got bunk beds. Of course, the local primary schools are rubbish so we'll probably move to somewhere with decent stock (:D at myself..).

We're not nasty enough to do this properly, really.

Nah, it's 'cos most PS3 owners bought them 'cos they thought they were cool and simply can't be arsed to be sad enough to get all 'fan boi' about stuff.

Yes, I'm aware that I'm calling myself sad.
 
I own: PS3, Xbox, Wii, PSP, DS, Macbook Pro, Dell XPS Laptop

Amiga and ST are in my Mums loft...

Solves all arguments really.... but yes Borrel is a cunt.

Flash bastard. Your opinions don't count 'cos you never actually get enough time to use anything you own 'cos you're too busy buying new stuff.

in the last two years... so what's wrong with norht london is only in the last 2 years instead of woeful infrastructure and no decent tubes in the last 100 ok then...

most games in the last year have been in preproduction for the xbox, a pc in sheeps clothing and easier to program for, and were ported over to the ps3 in a shonky way....

look at gta iv or burnout or as games programmed specifically for the ps3 as examples of where you anayology breaks down.

and you can't rate the sucess of a console on what it's futre iteration maybe....

the 720 vs the ps4 for arguments sake will again be sony being their usual bloody minded self vs ms's pile em high sell em cheap mentality...

that beign said ms many not bring out another console after their os division basically killed any chance of a blu ray xb as they feared it was taking away from visita and was responsible for dull vista sales...

That does seem like a fair point... blast! Still not worth £300 though!

Ignore The London Paper reference, that's only recent. Cock ends in North London has been going since time immemorial.

Woeful infrastructure? Gimme the overland any day of the week :D The tube is fucking horrible.
 
Dell XPS Laptop

I see your XPS and raise you a Latitude D810.

Oh, hang on...

:(

:D

Did I ever tell the story about Johnny Borrel's mum ringing up a certain charity and moaning that they hadn't properly auctioned a Razorlight-signed (cheapo) guitar, because if they had, it simply wouldn't possibly only have sold for £90?

Well, she did. Made the girl who answered the phone cry and everything, the stupid cow.

So not only is her son a completely talentless cunt, but he needs his mum to argue his arguments (even though it was a pathetic cunt's trick), too.

:cool: bloke, eh?

:D
