It's not like I have personal problem with you or anything, it's just that you're at the forefront of all of this.

Again, nobody take this as a personal shot to you. I have no beef with anyone here.

How the hell am I on the forefront of this?
Not counting the response to your rant.
I posted in this thread once. And was only to point out that Bond made a legit point.

I hardly show my face in the Sony threads and for good reason.

So make me out to be the mastermind behind this but I don't see it.

Though I will say unlike you, I got no problem saying I have an issue with you at the moment. Which is seperate from these posts.

Come on guys, can't you duke it out through AIM and tell us later how you've worked it out?

Honestly, is fanboyism still relevant? I was probably the most avid supporter of Wii60 back in the day and then I got a PS3. Nothing really changed for me. Sony is still a bad company who makes bad decisions sometimes. But the games are getting better, which is why the PS3 is slowly gaining ground. And games are all that matters.

This is so stupid! I just read over what I said. Please folks, don't post on the internet when you've gotten 5 hours of sleep and have been woken up by a random phone call and can't get back to sleep. How embarrassing. -_-

I have however taken Angrist's advice and PM'ed BaB in an attempt to straighten out whatever's going on there between us, so hopefully when I come back from work in a couple of hours I'll be able to straighten that out.

I agree. I had a 360/Wii. Nothing on the PS3 interested me the slightest, the only game that made me buy it was MGS4. It will get better in the year, and should be interesting to see how it all pans out for Sony.

I thought this issue wasn't as big as it once was.....
but anywhoo

Sure Sony screwed up with the firmware, but the more important thing is........how are they compensating for it?

Oh and Nintendo have pissed me right off with SSB Brawl. They offer to "CLEAN" the lens which is absolute bs, and it's been 1 week+ since logging the ticket with em, and still no parcel to send the Wii back to em!

This whole fucking page is tl;dr.

Normally I would, but this has gotten out of hand and nothing I could say or do would matter. Someone would still have something to say.



Everyone needs to stop bitching and get their heads together.

That really is BS. I had some problems a couple of weeks ago with HP. My laptop stopped working (and I discovered they had issued a recall for the exact problem I was having) and after sending it in, they called me and tried to tell me the keyboard was broken, the screen was broken, and all this other stuff which had never happened, and wanted to charge me $728 for it. They said I could either do that or they would send it back.

I basically kept calling every day and asked for a case manager, and eventually got them to fix it for free.

Moral of the story: aggravate the crap out of them.

wow, I didn't expect it to go up this soon. I'll download it when I get off of work today I suppose... if I'm not messing with the PC too much! :D
