Whats this new XBOX LIVE another scheme to boost sales!! Well sure, to use it you'll need to buy a pack with mic etc costing $49 in America. $49 all they asking for to boost popularity, yeh right.
Why would you want a Xbox, it may have good graphics but thats all. Long live the SONY with their PS2.

LOL a full spec PC LMAO at £189 from where exactly LOL idiot
Im posting in both forums to find out more about the consoles before I go out and buy one.
Just went to me college today for the first time, signed up to become a NUS member and saw what offers they had, they had a voucher which entitles you to 10% off any xbox deal in currys which I thought was cool, as you c an get a xbox with 3 games for around £225, so I would get £25 knocked out and it would only cost me £200, cool!
Im still making up me mind in what to get. Hm....

Lol! :-D All consoles are really cool, & now that loads of developers are releasing games on multiple platforms we should all get along in gaming harmony.
Or, if not, let's have a go at MS for writing "Only on Xbox" on their exclusives :-)
> I havn't argued once about which console is the best.
Nope, but the only time I have is when some stupid Ninty comes in and has a go, but even now I don't bother with them. Maybe if you visited the Xbox forum more you will find that I don't argue about consoles, you ask anyone from this forum and I bet they will tell you the same thing.

It was Maverick who said Microsoft and Sony are lying, I merley questioned Nintendo and their facts. This is the point I tried to make, anyone challengers Nintendo and they are wrong according to *SOME* Ninties. Others talk openly about why they don't like or want an Xbox or PS2, am I denied the right to do the same with Nintendo? How do you know that their figures aren't properganda because Microsoft have proven tests, as do Nintendo and Sony, but everyone apart from Nintnedo is lying (according to that post).

I didn't see you arguing because I never go in the Nintendo forum unless I see a Resident Evil topic as I am looking forward to that game. I like to keep opinions that others don't want to hear to myself, just because I don't want a GameCube doesn't mean others won't, why won't you accept that I aren't an idiot and infact I get along with people both in this forum and life in general.

But you could call Maverick a Fanboy for always saying what Nintendo can do against the Xbox, but he isn't, he is just enthusiastic about his console, but sometimes it becomes repetitive in an Xbox forum, that is all I was pointing out.

In you eyes maybe, but you don't know me, that post was the first in a long time and I don't get invloved anymore! Infact to be honest it was more of a comment to Maverick that didn't need you to get invloved! You come into the Xbox forum for your first time in a few weeks and your first post is against me, then you will leave and come back again when you see me doing wrong again, that is how I see it! Come into the Xbox forum when I am chatting with everyone about games and up and coming stuff on the Xbox, that way you will get to know me for who I am and not who you think I am.

Maverick and I get on well, I gave him quite a bit of information on the Xbox and I think he is a sorted guy. I have pointed it out before and he accepted that he does post a lot about Nintendo, I just thought it would be a little reminder. If you haven't got anything against me then you have a funny way of going about it, every post you have directed towards me has been in a derogitory way from the out-set! I would like to get on with most people on here, but as with life people aren't always to my liking and vica-versa. If you get to know me for who I am then you won't understand why you posted all this about me, just take the time and you will see.

I havn't argued once about which console is the best.
I was just trying to point out to you that everytime there is a topic like this you seem to take it all to seriously. You wrote 3 paragraphs about how the Xbox is proven to be more powerful than the Gamecube and how all stats are wrong from official Nintendo sites.
You say you are not lowering yourself down to my level but the fact is, I don't ever get into these things. I don't care what other people think, someone wrote a topic in the Nintendo forum the other day saying the 'Gaycube sucks' you didn't see my arguing did you?
I was never having a go at you, just trying to alert you that everytime you try to defend the Xbox you look even more like a little fanboy.
Just try to stay away from things like this because because you really are presenting yourself as a fanboy!
P.S I havn't got anything against you, I'm just telling you to calm down on your arguements!

Who cares about console power anyway? I brought an xbox for LOTS of reasons, mostly due to its games and Xbox Live.

Hmmm, But he has posted a similar topic to this in the Ninty forum, its best to talk about the Gamecube in there rather than in here (if you get what i am saying).

Damn Right :)
