Interesting and fun to look through. I agree that the 360 will not end up like the DC, but its hard to tell when we still really havent seen much interactive stuff on ps3 besides tech demo's.

So what. And #2 is a joke. Tech demos don't mean shit to me.

I know.

I just hate things like this.

Like when you watch a sporting event. The always compare the team going for a championship to the last time that team won like 50 years ago. Drives me nuts/

Jeez, it's just for a laugh. At least, I assume it is.

And they compared the xbox with the DC too. I remember plenty of people called it the spiritual succesor to the dreamcast.

Well if it was for a laugh then OK. Just looked to me like some one bashing the 360 fpr the PS3. I hate that.

I am not saying the 360is going to knock Sony out of #1. Time will tell but I really dont think that will happen unless the PS3 is priced way to high.

Dumb article.  Half of the things on there are ridiculous stretches that are inconsequential, could be applied to any two consoles ever made, or just don't make sense.

OMFG TEH PLAYSTATION IS DA S3COND COMNG OF SUPAR NINTENDO!1!!! WTF LOL IT HAS FINAL FANTASY AND SPORTS GM3S AND SHULDAR BUTONS11111 WTF W3 R TEHDOMED1!11! OMG WTF

EDIT:  By the way - Even if it is just for a laugh, it still isn't funny because of the above.

Where do you guys get the anti-360/pro ps3 ideology from? I really don't see any bias in this part. Yeah, it mentions the ps3, so what? It's mostly praise for the 360.

Plus there was the second page where they had 10 or so reasons why it was going to succeed.
It isn't pro anything.
Its just pointing out some various facts and data.

Although Mikes post was pretty funny.

I didn't read page 2 becuase I thought page one was stupid.

If I could understand what Mike said I am sure I would think it is funny.

That's how my friends and I always talk when we're making fun of someone, regardless of if they actually sound like that or not.  Usually ends up a hell of a lot funnier that way. ;)

Target just so happened to have XBox 360 Demo System, and I got to take it for a spin. Kameo looks really nice on a HDTV screen. Very nice. Of what little I played, Kameo is an interesting concept.

One thing I thought was odd was how the controller felt. For being acclaimed as an excellent controller, I found it to be somewhat uncomfortable, but that may be because I am used to the Gamecube controller, which is a very ergonomic controller. It is however a vast improvement over the original controller, which was the biggest hunk of crap that I have ever held.

I liked the controller when i used it earlier today.
Aside fromn the shitty huge hunk of plastic that held it to the kiosk i thought it was comfy.
That plastic chunk made it difficult to use the top sholder buttons.

Guys,

I think that if the almighty DC was to be compared to anything it would be the Nintendo Gamecube.. They are both consoles that are underatted and without a dobt in my eyes top of their era. They both have the most amazing games and their own quirky designs.. I will never put the DC down... I will quite happliy put sega down for not marketing this marvel properly... If they had then i think Dreamcast would of whupped PS2 and would still be in production today!!!
