Perhaps, but I've never seen any software that didn;t crash from ANY company
on ANY platform. MS just get's more flak for being #1 and the way they go
their. But then again, their history has never been the point. Your
comparing PC OS's to a console...apples and oranges. To even attempt to
compare the two is absolutely worthless. Fact.
> 2) At E3, MS stunk up the joint while Gamecube ruled. Fact.
Never stated otherwise. MS should have done better...but since they didn't
have final hardware ready since the Nvidia GPU wasn't ready, I can overlook
a few choppy framerates at E3....the final hardware and games are all that
really matters. Fact.

The above is a prime example of blind fanboy statement. Fact.

Did I ever say they were better? Nope. You apparently have the same
literacy problem Dex suffers from. I just said they LOOKED better to
me...as in, right now, they interest me more. Also, they are the types of
games I'm more interested in. Again, no matter how great games like SSB:M
or Pikmin turn out, I'll never buy them...they do not interest me. Then
with Ravenblade being cancelled and Metroid looking more doubtful all the
time with Retro's continuing problems, there go two more games I was
interested in. The simple fact is, the XBOX has more games in the genres I
like the most. If they get negative reviews the week before launch, I'll
just buy a GC. Right now, you can no more say any GC game will be good than
I can any XBOX game. We can only go on what APPEALS to you the most right
now. I have very clearly stated all this before.

BS...I'm apparently one of the only ones here with an open mind. I
currently own a GBA, N64, PS2 , DC, and PC....and play games on all of them.
All I have stated is that I have SWITCHED my XBOX/GC purchase order...I have
NEVER stated I wasn't buying a GC. Try again.

Oh please...how am I an MS fanboy??? Because I said that I'm buying an
XBOX? Or was it because I said that you can't compare past MS software to a
console? Just tell me.

I've not ignored them...you have simply WAY overblown problems with MS
software and I have simply pointed out that the XBOX can't be compared to PC
software...which is a simple fact.
Sorry, but you still easily qualify as a fanboy...

BS again...you're just making sh*t up. Define "unreasonable"...quote one
single claim that I have made that was unreasonable. Go ahead...just try,
fanboy.
Try again...

Well, I'm about to go so I couldn't actually find the time to read all
that e-mail (i got 44 in my box). Granted we won't get this resolved no
matter how long we hit each other, I'm calling the discussion here. At
least my part of it.
As for Stryder's open minded gaming habits, it's really not that
impressive. I have a PC, GBA, N64, PS, DC and PS2 by Christmas. And I'm
on a Student who is constantly broke and live off of my meager part-time
earnings and charitable contributions from my parents. And unlike some
people who list PC as a console when all they use it for is e-mail and
surfing the web, I actually do play my PC extensively. Yes, I like
Nintendo. I have a special bias for Nintendo. That's why I'm on this
list. But ignorant I am not.
I just find Stryder's nuking of my rebuttals to his arguments on the
basis that I'm so biased towards Nintendo I can't be right, to be a
totally laughable injustice to the mailing list. Instead of intelligent
discussions, you have people writing their rebuttals without even
reading, or only briefly glossing over the content of what the other
posters write.
But whatever. This is my last word on the issue. further posts on this
issue won't be read.

Well, I'm about to go so I couldn't actually find the time to read all
that e-mail (i got 44 in my box). Granted we won't get this resolved =
no
matter how long we hit each other, I'm calling the discussion here. =
At
least my part of it.
As for Stryder's open minded gaming habits, it's really not that
impressive. I have a PC, GBA, N64, PS, DC and PS2 by Christmas. And =
I'm
on a Student who is constantly broke and live off of my meager =
part-time
earnings and charitable contributions from my parents. And unlike =
some
people who list PC as a console when all they use it for is e-mail and
surfing the web, I actually do play my PC extensively. Yes, I like
Nintendo. I have a special bias for Nintendo. That's why I'm on =
this
list. But ignorant I am not.
I just find Stryder's nuking of my rebuttals to his arguments on the
basis that I'm so biased towards Nintendo I can't be right, to be a
totally laughable injustice to the mailing list. Instead of =
intelligent
discussions, you have people writing their rebuttals without even
reading, or only briefly glossing over the content of what the other
posters write.
But whatever. This is my last word on the issue. further posts on =
this
issue won't be read.

Big deal. I have Panzer Dragoon Saga and none of you do. I'm the best. =
Now let's go play some Dreamcast.
