Good God, nobody said the PS3's not going to be able to do the graphics or that we hate Sony. All that was said was that they weren't forthcoming with the truth.

Quit jumping down everybodys throat or I'll forcibly remove the PS2 that is commanding your brain right now.

I meant not true as in the they were asked to put on Sony branded hip-waders..

You've got to be kidding me. And you wonder why nobody takes you seriously?

Honestly, I think Sony themselves would be embarrassed to have fans like you.

And don't start getting into an explanation of how you aren't really jumping down people's throats and that you actually do have a sense of humor and that you aren't really a totally mindless, knee-jerk fanboy. It's not going to help. Trust me on that.

Attacks like this don't help the situation.

EDIT: Embarrassed maybe... but it's good to know some people follow you even through your past mistakes (PS2).

That was really funny. I've found PA to be pretty hit or miss lately, but that's definitely hit.

Perfect Stu · 05-23-2005, 03:03 PM

lol...that is great, actually. love the expression on the first guy's (Gabe, or Tycho? I always forget) face.

Professor S · 05-23-2005, 04:13 PM

Who would have guessed that a member named SONY wouldn't like a joke about the PS3? I wouldn't have... ever.

*someone mutters something about the Xbox*

What? How dare you! Pistols at DAWN!

MuGen · 05-23-2005, 05:33 PM

You either understand me or are attacking me further... I'm so confused.

It's kind of like a religious fundamentalist, if you think about it. Henceforth, I shall refer to the-poster-formerly-known-as-Kyuzo as "Jerry Falwell" so as not to actually use his current screen name and confuse it with an electronics company.

Man I couldn't agree more.

They've lost their fastball.

Though news that plays well with their brand of humor has been really slow lately.

I have come to the conclusion that Sony/Kyozu is a robot, programmed to spout praise to Sony and laugh only at his own jokes...

"After a quick memory scan, I am unaware of any Sony-branded hip-waders being distributed prior to Sony's E3 conference. I will present to you the final results on the matter after a more thorough scan of the Sony mainframe. In the meanwhile you might be interested to hear that before Nintendo's E3 conference, they distributed Mario mind-control caps programmed to make the user's brain more susceptible to the overwhelming cuteness of small puppies. LOL."

I'll chuckle at the joke simply for its comic relief. By chuckling, I am not agreeing with the statements made nor I am endorsing any one system or gaming company.

There, now that I've drawn that contract, I can enjoy the comic without causing any conflict or offending anyone.

Teuthida · 05-23-2005, 07:15 PM

I'm not sure which is funnier: the comic, or the resulting arguments from the comic.

Professor S · 05-23-2005, 07:38 PM

I agree, this has to be one of the most amusing threads that I've seen in quite a while. I think we should all let Sony in on the joke...

Solid Snake · 05-23-2005, 10:02 PM

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha ...... *sigh*.

By the way, Kyuzo, "It's funny 'cause it's true" is a Simpsons quote.
