Hey hey!!! Stop making fun of Ronald McDonald!!!


One -- the PS3 is still too expenive. Ya I can buy one but its stupid that they put blu-ray in it. (Ya, I still think movie playin on consoles is gay). They expect to get what they want for it.

Second -- Theirs, what 15 games out for it now. I dont get my hopes up high and play with myself till a good game comes out. I wait till its out, then get it.

Third -- I always wait months till I get a new console cuase they dont sell like they used to so I know they wont hit 1 million sales, so the price goes down.

Fourth -- I saw the overheating problem for the 360 a mile away. With consoles now (in my book) a PC more than ever they get just as hot or hotter than a PC. They crammed all that goodyness in a lunchbox and didnt expect anything to go wrong. Come on.

The towel trick...sounds like BS, but even if it worked, why would I want to only be able to use my console for three hours at a time before it shut off. Imagine being moments away from a save point or being in the middle of live game play, and getting the ring of death? I hope I only have to fix it once.
And as far as the PS3...when they decide to finally make a good game and drop the price about two hundred more dollars, I might reconsider. When a PS2 game (God of War) is better than the next gen console games...that is a bad sign.

idk ninja gaiden sigma looks pretty good ... but what swith their slogan "the real reason you bought a ps3" sounds kinda bad to centralize a system around 1 game . hopefully they come up with some better games because so far im lovin xbox

I guess the games that are coming out for the PS3 in 2008are supposed to be pretty good (according to E3 and my teenage son). We'll see what happens...I think my wife may be getting a stinkin' *** Wii for her birthday (from me). If she gets one,she will get Zelda with my name inscribed on it...apparently it is incredible on the Wii.
