Xbox 360 Fanboy

meh, we've been playing some DAMN good games for well over a year now, and we'll be playing more.

So it wasn't that huge of a loss, they'll do something for 2010.

That's really pathetic... and it COMPLETELY screws with any immersion.

What really bothers me is that developers are sure to be fanboy's (they are human afterall) but I expect that to be left out of their work; you know, be professionals.

This is not the fanboy in me saying this but rather someone looking at a great product and thinking, "Wow, that was childish / immature".

And it's a disc format, not disk. A: is a disk, D: is a disc (opitcal).

And FOR THE RECORD, was Blu-Ray and HD DVD out when the Xbox 360 was released!? DVD was and IS by no means prehistoric at this point. CD is venturing on prehistoric but even the CD has MANY pro's versus cons.

What is funny how you have to do 5 seperate installs throughout the game instead . I can swap a disc faster than those installs will take ... behold the power of PS3 !!!

"That's really pathetic... and it COMPLETELY screws with any immersion."

You mean like when Psycho Mantis rumbled your controller in the first MGS, and read your memory card for save games? Little jokes like these are part of the series.

2 points.

1st. The obvious.
2nd. This is basically in-game advertising, and is disgusting.. especially since they've already purchased the machine, the games, and to a lesser extent, the movies.

Different people want different things. I bought a 360 for the game library and the online service. The 360 has more than delivered on both aspects. Microsoft has done a phenomenal job with getting great games on their console and building a fantastic service with their dashboard and XBL. The only mistakes that Microsoft has made in this generation is A) not including a hard drive in all models and B) having reliable hardware. Not putting an HD media drive in the 360 was a smart move by Microsoft. It kept the cost of the console down and in the end, the company that profits wins.

"The truth - the Xbox 360 is a “work in progress” console with multiple personality SKU’s."

Umm...and the PS3 has released how many SKU's since it was released?

Don't quote me on this but, first it was a 20GB SKU and a 40GB SKU with backwards compatibility, then a 40GB SKU and a 60GB SKU without backwards compatibility, then a 60GB SKU and an 80GB SKU.

Let's not forget that they just released the Dull Shock 3 a little over a month ago. And they still haven't integrated full featured online or in-game XMB and Home is STILL in development.

PS3 is very much a work-in-progress just as much as the 360. I'd say even more so since they've been late to the party with pretty much everything this generation.

I'd perhaps agree if it weren't for the "PS3(TM) System" part, that just makes it seem like a jab.

Not that i'm too fussed - I love MGS too much to get upset with it. :D

Yeah just you, let's ignore the fact that jokes like these are part of the series, and that rowing up on the internet getting angry at a joke is seriously immature.

Yeah, that's...exactly what I was gonna say, too, considering MGS's disc history...I mean, there are a million ways to take that clip, but I wouldn't be surprised if most of the humor was referencing the olden days as opposed to the status of current gens. XD

i see it as that as well, trust fanboys to read stuff into it thats not there
