Rather amusing and actually has a good point...I will most likely end up with both systems eventually but I am and always have been a nintendo fan...

anyway...here is the vid...slightly risque though (no nudity nor swearing nor violence though)

XBox 360 FTW! Although I'll be forced to get a PS3 eventually, for FF and possibly Mercenaries (I hope Mercs comes to X360...).

The problem with this is that the reason I don't buy a Nintendo is that I'm not 12. I know, blah blah blah, have you tried blahtidy blah 3 or beedidlity blah blah:the blahing, they're totally not for kids. And blinkity blankity blahdidity is fun, 12 or no. Don't care. The games that I can only get on the Nintendo don't appeal to me, the thing comes off as a kiddie machine and I'm totally willing to admit that said perception is a personal one. 'Kay.

Having said that, the spoof ad then implies to me that the Nintendo is a blonde bimbo trying to bone 12 year olds. Now I imagine the Nintendo as driving around in a van without windows...

I can tune out the other chick as long as she ponies up the racing simulators that bring me back to the PS.

I have no intention of buying any of them. There isn't anything any of them can do that my PC can't do better. *nod*

Especially the new improved computer I'm planiing with Ageia PhysX and dual SLI video cards. :)

You can't see, but I'm shaking my fist and going "Damn you again, LG!"

I just need to decide on a case and a processor. I'd love an FX-60, but I'm having a hard time selling it to the wifey. It's pretty pricey. *nod*

I just imagined a converastion with papa Goofballs and the little Goofball-

"I didn't make all those prat falls, take all those pie faces, do all those flips and magic tricks and silly faces so you could waste your time on that consol.






I did all that becuase I like it.

But hey, it got me a bag of cash, to boot, so why don't you use this kickin' computer I bought with it."

I use my old PS2 for watching movies in the living room. Game consoles are a rip-off, and I won't be acquiring the PS3 or any other box for that matter.

My PC plays games beautifully, particularly CoH/CoV, WoW, EVE online, and many other interesting games that have nothing to do with some midget plumber.

I'm really looking forward to the Wii. PS3, I won't be getting. I have a PS2 and a GameCube with a number of games on each that I enjoy, but the Wii is primary for me when it is released.

Not very. I'm going to build it myself to save money. I'm doing pretty good this summer so far. :)

Bleem was PSX, N64 is more powerful than PSX. That's why I said "as far as N64."

That's debatable, but anyway, an offshoot of the Bleem community went on to start work on PCSX2. At the minute, they have a version that plays well on sufficiently tooled up dual-core PCs.

:) yeah...I guess this is like reverse negetive advertising...

I thought it was pretty good though...but...well I still like the nintendo stuff...I do perfer the nintendo controllers...they feel much more natural that the Sony/Xbox ones...

Games wise...I enjoy all three pretty much but each have their own 'personality' I guess...

The only games I play on PC are CIVIII, C&C and footy sims...used to play flight sims but not recently...

I did get CIV IV but it killed my PC and I am not gonna buy a new system just to play CIV IV...

I've used PCSX2. It's not very good yet. Granted, I'm not dual core, but it's definitely far from finished.
