K make a talk thread for this, this thread is about Blu Ray killing HD-DVD

I found this article to be fairly interesting...

Bah. Gamer Rejects is essentially the X-Box part of this forum. It's all about the Sony hate.

Meh, not really, they all listen to reason there, and they're good guys. I just tend to stay of the subject of me and my PS3 anyways, and more about what I'll get when I eventually get a 360.

 

[Fran]

Avalanche couldn't be more incorrect. If that is a sentence. Blame the Advil.

 

[Electro UK]

I blame Blas' scary kitty.

This is weird, all of us back here... its like we've all come under the same blanket. *Hugs memebers, hype and GR alike* let's never fight again.

 

[WhatsHisFace]

I would honestly post there if THWIP didn't post.

Okay, THWIP* is a member there, and occasionally he interacts, but he hardly posts. You know how DRT and I post? Like, 20 times a day? THWIP* posts about once a week now, and it's usually just about wanting more people to play Lost Planet anyway.

Besides, there's plenty of people there who would stick up for you. It's obviously not about consoles anymore, it's about who's less of an *******. Of course, it's not that obvious since the PS3 is hurting right now, but we're all looking forward to the third entries in the GoW and Ico franchises. t:

Well. Y'know....

The door swings both ways we already know that idiot.

Yes, and your asinine quip 'The Xbots ran pretty much everyone else out of the forum with their immature *****ebagery' most certainly acknowledges that. Try reading your own words a little better so that you don't come off as such a blatant hypocrite.

Nice try. My post was about what happened. You made it about you by devoting and even going as far as to opening try to preemptively defend yourself from further posts or avenues of logic centered around you. Entirely too predictable, you made it about you Phaser, you were a footnote in my post.

Why? When my post didn't even mention or address you in any form or in any way but we know Zenien's got her childish grudges to hold, so an unnecessary jab is in order. And now she is blaming me for responding to it? You're like the pathetic bully who runs crying foul when her own ass gets handed to her for needlessly picking a fight.

Ah, so you prescribe to the notion that people cannot change. At least following your own logic, nice to know you're that narrow minded.

Actually, you've proved that no one is a more radical follower of that idea than you when you threw in that 'arrogant sod' comment, even after the fact that this was my first post in this forum in how many months and wasn't even aimed at anybody, but you know, "it's Phaser and there no way he could have changed, nuh-uh, so I must provoke him".

If you tell a lie often enough it will someday become the truth? Is that what you're trying to do here? Let's watch and find out.

And you can do that by going back to the very first post and see for yourself who's got the proverbial stick up their rear end. But then again, it's an unfair demand on you considering you will be either too blind to see it or too much of a ****** to understand or acknowledge it.

Actually I just don't like you as a person from what I've seen. You were the one who let a one off comment give birth to a huge post that was primarily centered around you as usual. Childish bitterness? You might be wanting to not accuse someone of that until you look in the mirror.

And what's wrong about a preemptively defending myself so that this whole debacle doesn't go that route like it has done so many times before? And it's funny you of all people giving me advice about looking into the mirror knowing full and well if you had any ounce of sensibility, you would have actually practiced what you preach Miss I-simply-must-reply-to-this-days/weeks/months old-post-because-I-just-can't-let-it-go.

Yeah wasting time at work because I was bored of my job let me make some awesome posts. Of course if you were a smarter person you might grasp context and realize that I haven't held a grudge over it, especially since I dropped the argument when I think it was horrofan wanted to keep going on fumes. I said 'whatever' and just kept posting cool fanart.

Yes, after posting 10,000 word replies to Extromaniac and Fenrir about how Samus would beat Master Chief. And you say I make a big deal out of nothing?

I brought it up here because it was like the last interaction I had with him about it and wanted to see if I could rile him up. Guess it goes to show the truth hurts.

Because your childish bitterness won't let you to just let it go, thank you for proving my point, my dear. And no Zenien, the truth doesn't 'hurt', it speaks for itself.

I'm nowhere near as shallow or simple as you like to think I am.

No, with your self-admission of the hatred you harbor towards me, I've found out you're way worse than I imagined. I didn't come here to start a ruckus but if someone starts it, then spare me the denunciations for making sure that I end it.

I'll admit you irk me on a purely superficial level of me not liking the type of person you seem to be. But really, were you as mature as you like to pass yourself off to be, you wouldn't have flipped (which is what you did) over my arrogant sod comment.

It's funny how you equate inaction with maturity. If you had a shred of logic in the near non-existent brain being thrown around in that empty cranium of yours, you would've had the capacity to grasp the simple idea that if you take a jab at someone, you better be prepared for him to hit back, not lecturing him over maturity with mindless gibberish like 'you should've just shrugged it off' because in this case especially, you're the last person anyone should listen to about 'maturity'.

Ok sure. You're way too easy to gull into an argument. I think you feel you have something to prove it's a shame you don't understand that I have next to no emotional investment in this. But the whole repeating a lie thing again I suppose.

OK then, let's see you walk away from this. Let's see you prove you don't give a **** after unnecessarily trying to 'gull me into an argument'.

I was bored, saw you, figured why not caste a line, and you got caught right into it hook line and sinker. Congratulations.

If that isn't an ideal show of your childish bitterness and immaturity, then I don't know what is. Also goes to show how damn stupid you are for whining about being slapped back at after pointlessly aggravating someone you were better off not concerning yourself with.

By all emans try and obsolve yourself some more, you never change.

And isn't it ironic that you were accusing me of subscribing to that belief not just moments ago? I hope your enjoying your nutritious meal of double-standard filth because it really doesn't get any better.

And your constant demeaning of people in an arguement shows how you can't keep a cool head.

So I've got a habit of countering a brick with a stone. Go cry me a river.

It was one comment little guy. Do you want to be a hypocrite any more, considering my comment was a one off and your reply was an entire cry baby rant?

Oh you mean like responding to this harmless little post:

It's sad to see this thread being the only one with any kind of real discussion/argument. The Hype Gaming forums have completely gone down the drain. :

with this...

The Xbots ran pretty much everyone else out of the forum with their immature *****ebagery. Of course someone like you wouldn't believe me, the arrogant sod that you are, but consider for a moment how after the forums were split the Xbox section was the most active, and after the grand exodus when every single one of them left except for like 2 who continue to post here once in a while, the post gap between the Xbox forum and the Sony forum remains the same as the Nintendo forum is pretty much dead.

So much for Extromaniac blindly believe the the forum is Sony fanboy prime.

Or that Master Chief can beat Samus Aran.

Try tasting some of your own medicine for a change, chimpy. I know it tastes bitter when you're not giving it to someone else.

You're entirely too predictable, maybe that's why you seeming think people can't change?

Again with the 'people can't change' crap when you are still the only one who has both implicitly and explicitly made any such assertions. I don't even know if telling you to look at yourself in the mirror is going to do any good here. Might as well smash it on your empty little head. At least that would do you some good. Or maybe I'm just optimistic about it.

I know exactly how you're going to reply. More logically flawed arguements, some nice struturing of the english language,a general arrogance, and constantly throwing in acolorful and spiteful insults whilst lecturing the other person aboutt he same exact thing.

With the kind of spiteful obsession you have with me, sure, who else would know? Only difference is that you still couldn't look at the situation without taking off the hate-tinted glasses.

One little comment should have begot a small reply, but not when Phaser has his ego to defend on no, poor sensitive fragile ego that it is.

Yes, one little comment should have begot a small reply (like my first post in the thread) but not when Zenien's got that chip on her shoulder crying seven seas about how much she hates Phaser to be unable to resist throwing insults at him that were uncalled for.

Now, prove me wrong by not replying at all. Let's see if you can do that. I will tell you this though, after this I'm not wasting my time on you anymore.

Why? Kitty don't want to 'play' any more? Don't want to 'toy' with me anymore?

I figured maybe you'd changed some, shown I was wrong.

Really? When was that? Was it before the 'arrogant sod' brainfart or after it?

Especially considering how you thought you knew exactly how I was going to reply to your response, completely missing what I was actually getting at. I will tell you this, whatever brilliantly worded insults you come back with you only prove one of my points about you.

I'm sure one look at this very post will remove all doubts as regards to whose points about whom were proven with absolute certainty.

This is my last post. You can get the last oh so scathing remarks in if you want, the more you try to absolve yourself the more you do the opposite, not matter how witty your insults, all you've done is prove what people think about you to be correct. As for 'you're just bowing out because you can't argue with me!' Don't be that obtuse, I mean it anyone looking here realizes you are not guilt free by any means.

You're a walking mess of contradictions. First you tell me it was one harmless little comment. Then you tell me you were just reeling me in (meaning that it wasn't harmless and was thrown specifically for the purpose of provocation). Then you are simply toying with me. And now you want to 'drop it', even before I get to skim through your drivel? You've started eating your foot alongwith your shoe already. And it's a pity it will take you this long to realize it.

I'm dropping it, let's see if you can do the same.

Suprise me, Phaser.

Oh goody, I'm dropping it too. Just wanted to squeeze in a line or two before doing so.

The Sony BDP-S300 has been spotted at Tech Depot (Office Depot's Retail Outlet) for $425. Being that a reputable retailer is slashing so much off the MSRP, it bodes well that other retailers will follow suit.

Amazon has the closest competition to this player on the HD DVD side, the Toshiba HD-A20, for $385.

All of your posting is not getting you near Gamer Rejects. You have to physically go there yourself... digitally, of course.

 

[XtromaniaK]

Ah, the nostalgia.

 

[ToddIsDead]

Stuff like this is why I stopped coming into the games forum long ago. Thank Jeebus for Gamer Rejects.

 

[Zenien]

A place where almost everyone thinks the same must be very peaceful.

 

[ToddIsDead]

It eliminates the incredibly long winded, inane, and petty arguments that are a staple of this forum.

 

[블라스]

Zenien, it's not like that at all, and also I swear I'm not brainwashed.
I just really dislike some of the things that fanboys do sometimes.

The last time it was Sony's (you gotta admit the DMC4/Haze petitions were ridiculous), but I am just as annoyed with, say for example, Bungie fanboys who think that "HALO IS DA BEST THING EVAR!!!1".

Gamer Rejects is so cool, and yeah, there are more MS fans but there are some Sony people as well, Electro and I don't know who else.
Plus, I'm always raving about my ps2 and you know I love MGS.

I hope you post there more frequently.

 

[Zenien]

K as much fun as this is I'd like not to distract this thread anymore then I already did make a chat thread for it this is about Blu Ray and HD-DVD.

Phaser is one of the last good posters here. At least he cares about conversation enough to really go in-depth on things.

We've got some really weak ass morons on this forum who get so easily exhausted just scrolling the mouse-wheel. I don't know how these jackasses even manage to play games for more than a minute with those wimpy butterfingers.

I mean, come on. 'The page is too long'? That's simply the dumbest thing to complain about.
