Just a heads up if any of you never got the GBA version, it's out and about $29.99

Odd. Seems like 3-4 years too late. Who is going to hook back up their PS2?

Me. I actually had to go into my attic to find my PS2 controllers because they weren't with the system for some reason.

Considering the price of the PS3 and the number of solid games in the last couple of years (and Persona 4 in a week), many of us never unhooked the PS2

There are lots of games on PSX and PS2 that I still like to play, so I am keeping it. Plus I just recently bought a new PS2.

Sine, I don't think you appreciate how many PS2s there are out there. For most of 2008, Sony's best selling system was not the PS3 or the PSP, but still the PS2.

maybe some of us had enough foresight to purchase a playstation 3 that had full hardware backwards compatibility. Maybe one of us did that.

WHAT!! But the PS2 isn't made by Nintendo!! It's like Sine having a Wii, it can only be for a short period of time or the balance of the world will be threatened

BTW, this is exactly why Sony ain't lowering the price of their bloated (literally and figuratively) next gen system. Heck, the price of the PS2 hasn't come down in what, 2 years? They just keep tossing a game in here and there and charging a little more (kinda like Nintendo and the DS).

The PS2 is making the games division look good right now. Short-term gain for long-term pain IMO

Errr, we have discussed plenty of PSX and PS2 games in the past.

I guess the over-the-top presentation of that post eluded you

Based on your most recent posts, I judged that the post is most probably your honest view.

Yeah, I'm renown for never joking around here

You two are so gay for each other.

Yes, I adopted by children.....or are they fictional? :-)

This is not about joking.

It's about this being just the latest in a line of these types of posts from you that are directed at me. You last left off in this thread. Each time I point out what is seriously wrong with your post; and each time you have some wacky response.

You completely miss the point of any post of that nature regarless of how many times I try to explain it so I just give up 'cause you just don't get it.

Like I am now

To finish this

Zeus wrote:You completely miss the point of any post of that nature regarless of how many times I try to explain it

I call complete bullshit. You haven't been explaining anything, you bombard me on an almost weekly basis with stupid comments, then try to find whatever means you can to back out of it when I point this out. The best copout is that you always bullshit "I am not going to argue with you anymore" even though you try to start some sort of argument on a very regular basis; again, bullshit.


Let me make this perfectly clear, right here by reviewing your last three threads:

1) After you posted 4 or 5 posts about Matt Damon, and then spoke about Dogma being the best of Kevin Smith's films, I wrote "this is an argument we will surely have", not even myself derailing the thread. I even kept it light hearted by posting a smiley face. In response, you come on with an aggressive tone in this:

Zeus wrote:Start another thread if you wish to continue this argument. No derailing here

So what am I missing here in calling your post in my direction, foolish sounding? What am I missing here? After I made fun of your foolishly funny blatant hypocracy; you come back with this joke of a response:

Zeus wrote:Even though Kup and I derailed this one I ain't letting it happen again

/topic

I guess that explanation somehow makes your hypcoracy alright?


Later on, I post message clearly stating my opinions on the Kevin Smith movies, others also stated their opinions.

I then stated that it speaks well for his movies to see such a wide diversity in the opinions on his movies.

I then gave further opinions, CLEARLY stating that these are the opinions of critics. on Kevin Smith movies.

You then out of left field you post:

Zeus wrote:Titanic got an 82% so critics loved that too.

Does that make it a great film to you?

Do you know how retarded that question sounds? I never stated I agreed with critics on Titanic! I didn't even mention Titanic.

So you come up with this:

Zeus wrote:It's also only coincidence that the statistics you posted just happens to support your personal pics?

Here's a link that'll help you with this problem:

http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/imply

Yes it's a coincidence, I wasn't even aware I was supposed to be in an argument. If I was, my position would be "diversity in opinion for his films speaks well about them" which was stated above; which isn't supported by Rotten Tomatoes.com.

What's with the posting of the definition of imply? I know you were trying to patronize me, but that's just the another stupid post from you as your link doesn't serve your point, but it does explain EXACTLY what I am trying to tell you.

imply - "To involve by logical necessity."

What logical path are you using? In fact, by stating my own opinions, posting other opinions, and clearly stating they are someone else's opinion; what is implied is that it is not my own opinion.


#3 - Even if you were joking in this thread, are you at all surprised that I would be taking you seriously after months of this sort of crap like what I have posted above?

I don't see for what purpose you go out of your way to try and start shit up with me all the time. Especially when your lead off is a dumbass comment.

You have kids to worry about don't you? Just chill out, next time you see my post, don't go out of your way to try and start shit up, especially to the point where you are just posting stupid shit to try and get something going.

Here's an idea: why don't we not write pages and pages talking about each other and what we said. There's a difference between talking about something someone said, and responding to the content of what they said.

let me have my fun, man :-)

Damn you both for ruining it for me. It was just me and him for so long and he wrote these novels over nothing. Now you've scared him away.....

Further exampleof what I am talking about in my post above.

Zeus wrote:Sine, in general, digital distribution, games and movies, is still really overpriced as it's still mostly a hardcore thing. They have to do no work and they want as much or more than what it would cost to rent it.....and there's the restrictions (only good for 24 hours whereas the rental is up to 48) and the possibility of the distribution not working. It's ridiculous.

The question I have is whether this is deliberate, or whether a regular process of thought is just something he lacks.

The fact that you think the link you posted above is even remotely related to our posts in this thread just further solidifies the fact that you just don't get it....at all....in any which way, shape, or form. This is why I gave up trying explain anything to you in the past and why I just have fun with you now.

You're whole "regular process of though is just something he lacks" comment does nothing but support my stance that there's just no reasoning with you, no explaining anything to you ever regardless of tone. Basically it just proves that there's no such thing as a constructive argument when you're involved. I knew that so I just egged you on for the fun of it.

And for the record: this was the only post directed at you in this entire thread that wasn't a part of me just messing with you.

Zeus wrote:The fact that you think the link you posted above is even remotely related to our posts in this thread

You don't think that another example of you posting something stupid is not even remotely related to a discussion about a series of posts by you that are stupid?

Zeus wrote:You're whole "regular process of though is just something he lacks" comment does nothing but support my stance that there's just no reasoning with you, no explaining anything to you ever regardless of tone.

Funny, this is in other words, exactly what I am accusing you of. Perhaps you should examine your own posts and lack of reasoning before you blindly accuse others of what you are guilty of.

Zeus wrote:Basically it just proves that there's no such thing as a constructive argument when you're involved.

Why are you talking about constructive arguments? Tell me how you were going to create a constructive argument out of any of the posts you made in the examples I have covered? What exactly do you think a constructive argument is? Making an accusation in the form of a stupid question about whether or not I like Titanic based on posts about different opinions on Kevin Smith movies? Demanding that people don't derail your discussion about Matt Damon in a James Bond thread; did you REALLY see yourself as a defender of the integrity of the thread? In order for you to get your way we would have to suspend a sense of logic and reason.

There is no logic in your thought process when you try to start "arguments". If you really, indeed, want to create a constructive argument, you need to establish a thread of logic which connects point A to point B, this basic point is something you often miss. It seems impossible to get this point through to you.

You are constantly trying to start stuff up; what is your motivation there? I don't think it's going to stop, it is just something you have done continuously for years.
