malatach - May 19, 2005 07:13 PM (GMT)
what do you think about the new XBOX. i think that the 1st one is better. but im not saying it isnt cool cuz it is. i luv Full Auto

daclassicgamingmaster - May 28, 2005 12:34 AM (GMT)
i personally am pro nintendo and sony, so i cant say i agree with you. I think the design is disgusting, and it looks like a computer...in fact, it basically is one!

I agree with daclassicgamingmaster because I really don't like XBox. Their games are ok, but XBox is to much like a computer. Plus the XBox stuff is coming out way before everything else is, and XBox fans from my classes say that they would rather not buy it, and are considering on buy the Revolution (New Nintendo system). This is in High School, too, where judgements are much more strict.

Im in a high school too, and a lot of people feel the same way as me. All my firends r anti-microsoft, and they also hate IE, and windows :D . The only good game for xbox is halo.. and thats a fact.

I know my name is a pain in the butt to write, so you guys can call me DCGM. thats fine

From what I can tell, they basicly repackaged the XBox and made it look worse. PS3 looks like a scanner, but I'll get it anyway. XD

daclassicgamingmaster - May 29, 2005 04:28 PM (GMT)
i like the way ps3 looks. the specs r suppossed to be amazing though

Toanuvafreak123 - May 30, 2005 04:17 PM (GMT)
PS3 = Looks like a scanner/grill/fridge.
Scanners = Useful
Grill = Useful
Fridge = Useful

Thusly, PS3 = PWNAGE

I agree with Tnf

Of Doom - May 30, 2005 05:47 PM (GMT)
I'll just get a skin for the 360 when I get one.

PS3 looks okay, but its controllers have GOT to be a joke.

Toanuvafreak123 - May 30, 2005 06:41 PM (GMT)
I'm afraid that I might be eating bananas while I'm playing PS3 and accedentally eat the controller.

daclassicgamingmaster - May 30, 2005 07:01 PM (GMT)
the controller is a bit ugly, but knowing playstation, they'll be really comfortable

anyway, why would u want a skin for the ps3? the colors will be amazing. Have you even seen the black ps3 image? it's sooooooooo sleek and shiny

Darkness Wolf - May 31, 2005 03:40 PM (GMT)
Speaking of controllers...what I want to know about is the controller for the new Nintendo system. I've heard a bit about it, and I was lost. It just seems really wierd-sounding *but, then again, what I heard may have just been rumors*

Toanuvafreak123 - May 31, 2005 04:03 PM (GMT)
Nintendo has not officially reveiled any details about the Rev's controller. They say that's why it's going to be revolutionary, and they won't reveal it until the 360 and PS3 have confirmed theirs so they won't steal their ideas AGAIN.

(Rumble, Analog stick, and wireless were all Nintendo's first, now everyone has them. Besides that, the XBox's controller is a blatent ripoff of the Gamecube. Just look at it!)

Lavo - May 31, 2005 08:21 PM (GMT)
Yup. Also, I have herd that Rev's controlers will be completly wireless.

Darkness Wolf - May 31, 2005 08:34 PM (GMT)
Yeah, like I said. I only heard rumors.

Lavo - May 31, 2005 09:02 PM (GMT)
Yup. I hope the Rev's controlers have rumble though.

I could be mean and delete every off-topic post in this topic. Speaking of stealing ideas, Sony got sued for stealing the rumble design. It wasn't Nintendo's as far as I could tell from the article.

Comparing Xbox and GameCube Controllers.

XB: No Z button. No select button. Menu buttons are off to the left. Group of 4 buttons are the same size compared to eachother. Right analog stick is as usable as the left. Totally different trigger design. Different shape. White and black buttons.

And also, the first analog stick was from some arcade game. Nintendo wasn't first. Rumble I agree with you. And wireless seemed inevitable. Just like the wireless TV Remote.

Toanuvafreak123 - May 31, 2005 09:41 PM (GMT)
Well look at the PS controller and tell me it isn't a SNES with a coupla analogs?

Lavo - May 31, 2005 09:41 PM (GMT)
True.

Toanuvafreak123 - May 31, 2005 09:45 PM (GMT)
Oh, and OD, you're pointing out the teeny differences.

Same:
ABXY buttons
Two analog sticks in the same place
D-Pad in the same place
Start button in same place
Shoulder buttons on the same place
General same design

The only difference besides the ones you mentioned is that the controller feels like crap in your hands. It's all bulky'd.

Of Doom - May 31, 2005 09:49 PM (GMT)
If I were to respond, you'd counterattack my post because you'd decided I was flaming Sony, which to my knowledge you like. I neglect to respond.

Toanuvafreak123 - May 31, 2005 09:49 PM (GMT)
What's wrong with liking Sony? O.o

My point exactly. Everything I say is an insult, according to you.

Anyway, here's the discontinued ancient must-killify all that remain Xbox Controller:

Here's the current Xbox Controller, the one I was comparing:

Here's a GameCube Controller:

One can clearly see that the Start Buttons are in different places.

Toanuvafreak123 - May 31, 2005 09:59 PM (GMT)
Whatever. Ice has some freakish turbo mutton controller or something, and I quite honestly don't give a crap to look at the official one, so I just say what I know.

Of Doom - May 31, 2005 10:00 PM (GMT)
Third-party controllers are teh sux0rz.

Lavo - May 31, 2005 10:01 PM (GMT)
Yup OD is right.

Toanuvafreak123 - May 31, 2005 10:02 PM (GMT)
I only had 2, for the N64. One I got because it looked cool, and the other because it glowed in the dark... Did I just say glowed? Is glew better?

Of Doom - May 31, 2005 10:08 PM (GMT)
I had 3. Two for the N64 (huge, unwieldy, ugly after the cheap paint came off.)
And one for the Xbox. (I think Logitech wireless. It was horrid enough to turn a veteran into a n00b.)

Toanuvafreak123 - May 31, 2005 10:09 PM (GMT)
Glow controllers > Non-glow.

Of Doom - May 31, 2005 10:10 PM (GMT)
Seeing in the dark > Not seeing in the dark.

However,

w00t > not w00t

since weer kinda talking about the xbox 360 is halo 3 coming out on the xbox also or is it just the 360?

Of Doom - June 3, 2005 02:50 AM (GMT)
Finally, some on-topic posts. Well, to my knowledge, Halo 3 is only on the 360. Only the 360 will be able to support it. I also hear the 360 will be backwards-compatible with both Halo 1 and 2. Maybe the "pop-in" on Halo 2's graphics will even go away. :)

Toanuvafreak123 - June 3, 2005 03:25 AM (GMT)
Microsoft wouldn't be stupid and make it so you could play Halo 3 without buying their new system!

Koopaking - June 3, 2005 04:19 AM (GMT)
Seriously, they have to keep their tradition of making people buy their new products by making new things to use them!

Nintendo does it too.

daclassicgamingmaster - June 5, 2005 12:11 AM (GMT)
every company does it. It's a little thing called smart business ;)

Koopaking - June 5, 2005 05:59 AM (GMT)
Yeah, that's true. But I don't think ME was a mistake. XD

Lavo - June 5, 2005 02:48 PM (GMT)
Maybe it wasn't. XD
