"Concerning ALL users of the X-box forum."

I don't think I've seen anyone call the X-box rubbish because of it's size. If people have, then they deserve a kick up the backside. Is a Jumbo Jet rubbish because of it's size? If it was smaller it wouldn't be a Jumbo Jet. The only reference to the console's size I've seen is either from X-box fans accusing 'Ninties' of moaning about it, or from Dark Mark and his very humourous comments about needing a team of architects to design it.

I have, on many occasions, seen people criticise the GameCube because of cosmetic reasons though. Colour, size and even the fact it has a handle! So bloody what? The console is only the shell for the hardware!

Comments about the controllers. I find the X-box controller really uncomfortable. I've got large hands so that can't be the reason for my discomfort. Whatever the reason is, I still find it uncomfortable. That doesn't mean everyone else finds it comfortable, just the same as if you find it comfortable, it doesn't mean everyone else does.

To me, the GameCube controller is the most comfortable controller I've ever used. I used to think that of the Dreamcast's controller before the GameCube, so no one give me that "Ninty" crap. Not everyone has the same opinions and we all have the right to express them.

Daveus for some reason believes that we, who don't necessarily enjoy the X-box as much as other consoles we've played, have no right to our opinions. Infact, as you may be aware, he told me...sorry, ORDERED me to get out of the X-box forum because of my opinions! Why he thought he had the authority to do so I do not know and I will take this up with the staff if I have to. If everyone who likes or has liked previous consoles in the past wasn't allowed to post in here, the X-box forum would be empty!

Debation (even in mass quantities :D) is what the forums are about. Some people will like one console, others will like another, and some will like every one of them. That's what these forums are about! The X-box forum isn't designated for X-box fans, just X-box topics. Anyone can post their opinions. Otherwise, what are you doing here other than to see other's opinions? Oh, I forgot, you're writing long and meaningless topics to try and win the X-box game of your choice. Those of you who do only come here for the competition, get out more! If you come here for the community, for entertainment value, for opinions and discussions on gaming matters - AS WELL as to hopefully win a game of your choice, then good for you.

Now this goes for everyone who reads it, no matter which forum they are in, atleast take note that other's have opinions too. There's no point in being selfish, no point in getting yourselves worked up, and in Daveus' case, there's no point in making a right fool out of yourself by trying to play Hitler! Have fun, keep the peace and just enjoy yourselves a little. I personally don't come online to see bullying, name calling, exclusion and pettiness. If I wanted that, I'd go back to school! I'm sure you don't come on here for those reasons either.

Just do me one favour....Listen.

Microgarlicbread,

to sum this up fairly quickly. the games you say "are gonna suck". you only say that because they're not gonna be on the handbag. eg: Buffy, ToeJam & Earl 3 and Max Payne 2. (and there's not even rumors about Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 4 & 5 comming onto the Cube!)

also, MOH: Allied Assult is ONLY proberly gonna be on the XBOX. and Frontline's only on Xbox and PS2.

Worms 3. UNTIL it comes out onto Xbox you CAN'T critisize it because you DON'T have any idea how it'll play on the Xbox.

Halo 2 - the words "ONLY"..."ON"...and "XBOX" spring to mind.

so if you wanna constantly flap that fat mouth of yours about YOUR crappy Xbox facts then do it in the Nintendo forums! we don't care.

get it yet? if it's not on your handbag, you slate it. and if doesn't interest you, you slate it. your opinions mean nothing to me! one of you GC lovers are gonna call me a "fanboy". but you can't because your definition of a "fanboy" is someone who doesn't listen to other people's opinions. this isin't an opinion "Buffy The Vampire Slayer - Don't want it (you KNOW its gonna suck anyway)"

an opinion from you on Buffy would of been more like "nah, i'm not into Buffy. she doesn't interest me".

and if you think Xbox "only has three good games" then you need medication. most the Xbox fans have told you when you say stuff like that, so i'm NOT going through it again! Xbox has great games, accept it.

and in your posts, (not just you, most the other Cube fans) all you do is show that you can show everyone else what someone has just posted and critisize every single sentance of it with the utter crap that YOU believe sounds better because you don't like the Xbox or something!

and if one of you handbag fans replies to this, i'm not gonna read it and i'm not gonna reply. because it just goes back and forth, back and forth and back and forth. and this causes YOU to bore the hell out of me WITH YOUR crappy facts. that's why i stopped argueing in the other topics, because your crappy facts BORED me!

Ah well, I am not going to spend any more time thinking about why, I've got better things to do!

I don't know young timmy, I just don't know.

All we can do is wonder.

But the fact of the matter is that I am not a Fanboy!

I enjoy playing games a lot and I think that you have mis-interpreted my intentions. I just like to chat about games and discuss things with different people from my ordinary everyday lives, but every once in a while I get sick of people like that Micro fool and I was suprised that you tuned on me becuase so far I have discussed the games from the GameCube that I would *LOVE* to see appear on the Xbox. I haven't once put the GameCube *DOWN*! I have only discussed, calling me a Fanboy was very stupid as it is clear that I have a broad mind about gaming! If a game is good why deny it the credit it deserves, but when a game is bad I will be the first one to stand up and admit the faults and what can be improved. Last week I bought a Dreamcast to play some SEGA classics (Shenmue 1+2, Virtua Tennis 1+2, Skies of Arcadia e.t.c) and so far I am very impressed. I wanted to mention that so people do not think I am one console minded. I sold my PS2 to get an Xbox, I still have a PSONE, I have recently sold my N64, I have just purchased a Dreamcast and I am thinking about getting a GameCube! The *LAST* thing I am is a one console FANBOY! Where did he get that from?

Anyone who resorts to personal insults is just perfetic, they obviously don't have the knowledge to win the argument so just ignore them.

Every console has fanboys, it's a known fact. X-Box just has a few more than usual :).

Calling me a Fanboy! Calling me a liar! Calling me a retard and an idiot! Although It was Microgarlicbread who was giving out most of the insults before I retaliated, you just seemed to join in.

Examples please?

lol, replace 'on' with 'against'

Bad choice of words there methinks lol

Nothing against people 'turning on' you Daveus, I'm sure you're a very nice boy in person...just not my type... :P
