    Yeah how is that official Linux support on the 360 going for you? what's that? they never offered it in the first place and arse rape you over hard drive upgrades, charge you for online gameplay, don't support as many codecs, etc? oh...

    No Offense Tachikoma but how is that Official linux support working for you on your ps3? seems to be gone now. unless you don't want to play any new games. so now both systems are in the same boat.

    It's nice to see people still talking about the Dreamcast :033:.

    For me I don't give a shit, it was crap, but for all those cluster computers built from PS3's, bedroom tinkerers who want to mess around with Cell programming, people who wanted a cheap web/media server, etc etc it's working perfectly fine, thanks for asking.

    Is that why 360 online is full of 14 year old kids calling people "fags"?

    This is so dumb. Play games with your friends. I haven't had a bad experience with people on Xbox Live in a LONG time.

    I need to stop posting because my 360 fanboy is trying to burst out of me. :lol:

    For the record, I'm only an Xbox fanboy because the PS3 and Wii suck.

    comparing consoles is like comparing women. If there's anything good about them just have an orgy, don't reject them graciano =/

    I had my way with the Wii and kicked her to the curb. Except Galaxy 2 is coming out...

    PS3 on the other hand... I'm afraid I'll catch somethin' if I mess around with her. Or she'll make promises she can't keep and break my poor old heart. And I don't think I can take that. Plus I hate her parents.

    And the 360 is that girl with a twitch in her eye that is easy to get into bed, but you know she could snap at any second.

    so you don't like a little bit of excitement in your life? :D

    Anyway, sadly its true that MS has added features, while sony is king in taking them away, either through hardware "upgrades" or through software updates.
    Let's see what happens when the X360 slim hits, its apparently in the making - wonder if xbox1-compatibility will still be included.

    Oh, and btw - don't know what you're complaining about, my Xbox "snapped out" too, but I nursed her back to health (keep her reeeeallly warm with a nice heatgun) and we're on good terms again for more than a year now :)

    Whereas my PS3 won't just shut up, it's annoying as hell (fan spins up to maximum speed but won't slow down again, regulating it manually makes the console overheat - it's somehow running far hotter than it should, but works).

    Considering the healthy income that Classics (original downloadable XBOX 1 games) may offer on the 360 and the fact that it's a software emulator doing the work from day 1, I'd say the slim XBOX 360 will include B/C, but thanks for asking:p

    I just want to fool around, I don't commit to any of them. Each has a good side and bad side so it's a ménage à trois rather than kicking one of them out of the bed for farting.

    I just want to play games on them, I don't care about the rest of the shit everyone is getting so worked up over.

    ...and who gives you the occasional nasty red ring that inevitably means you have to go seek health advice! :dammit:

    360 gives you the best time ever. You don't want to stop. But she does get around and occasionally is a no go zone until she goes to the health clinic. Lol, Maybe 'Red Ring' in this metaphor could be over-usage. Perhaps a friction burn.

    The Wii is all about foreplay.

    The PS3 used to try everything but now its only missionary.

    It's a free feature from which there are not many on 360, cherish it :thumbsup:

    If we are comparing these things to women then lets see:

    Wii: the highschool girl you would love to play with but get's boring fast.
    PS3: the mature woman that knows what she wants.
    360: the skank that you end up with after a party and gives you an std.

    so basically it's just what you are in to :thumbsup:

    It looks like the mature woman doesn't want to take it up the linux side anymore.. but it's still a healthy relationship.

    The PS3 is having a mid life crisis methinks.
