Axmeister, your number 2 and 3 are agreeable. I must dispute number one and four though.

1. Marijuana has no addictive chemicals whatsoever. Not mentally, not physically. The only addicts are the losers who regardless of marijuana, wouldn't be doing anything with their lives anyway. There are quite a lot of successful people who smoke a little marijuana. Prostitution is not related to marijuana use.

Why it should be legal: Does not cause cancer, is impossible to overdose on, does not cause intoxication, does not kill brain cells, does not cause addiction. Also, it has hundreds of medicinal uses that are valid:

To say that ingesting some marijuana to relieve pain is wrong is retarded. Why? Any ER will likely give you Tylenol with Codeine, Hydrocodone, Oxycodone, Tramadol. Etc. These drugs are all opiate derivitives, with tramadol being an analgesic synthetic opiate. These drugs cause physical and psychological addiction, yet the addicts can keep going back to the ER and getting more and more of them. Hell, they can go to ten ER's in a day, get one prescription filled for free per week thanks to medical insurance, and the rest pay out of their pockets. The going rate for a bottle of vicodin at the drug store (quantity up to 40) is 15 dollars. The street price per pill ranges from 3 - 5 dollars per pill. So in this way the government is funding a whole other kind of drug abuse. Prescription meds.

Also, drugs like prozac for anxiety/depression are ridiculous. It's basically legal ecstacy (being that it's very very close in chemical structure to methylenedioxymethamphetamine aka ecstacy), yet the difference is that pure ecstacy isn't actually harmful, but prozac is very harmful. Not only does pure ecstacy not cause mental or physical addiction, it's also impossible to overdose on. It doesn't cause "holes" in the brain, and doesn't cause intoxication. It doesn't cause violence, and doesn't cause everyone to want to have sex. Too many people think ecstacy is a sex drug, when it's the fact that street ecstacy pills contain only up to 60 mg of pure ecstacy, any the rest of the 160 mg tablet is a whole mess of other things. A lot of times rupheline is sold as ecstacy, "roofy's" are the date rape drug, ecstacy is not. You can thank the government for this, because if it was legal, it would be synthesized by actual pharmacologists, be pure, and be sold in pharmacies for cheaper than any street version.

Same with marijuana. Gangs would lose their source of income. Organizations like the mexican cartel would lose their source of income. Crime would not be related to drugs in any way, and no one would be able to sell the drugs cheaper than the government. Not only does making ecstacy cost an initial investment of 3000 dollars for the chemical apparatus, but the actual chemicals needed can only be bought in low amounts, as not to have the D.E.A. knocking at the door. The best someone could do is order 1 fluid ounce of 91 percent sassafras oil per month, for 8 months, then wait 4 months, and do it again. Seeing as how 160 grams of pure safrole is needed to make 15 grams of pure ecstacy, and things like dimethylformamide, p-benzoquinone, palladium, and a host of other chemicals needed cost a hell of a lot. They could not a. afford to make the drugs and sell them pure; and B. they could not sell pure, or diluted drugs for cheaper than the government.

So really, instead of our experimental teenagers paying the drug cartel's pockets, our government would be seeing a hefty amount in taxes, as well as spending 8 billion tax dollars LESS per year on putting teenagers who possess a gram of marijuana in jail. WE pay that money for them to fill the prisons with marijuana possessors, yet they should be getting the rapists and actual criminals.

My argument to number 4. Who the hell cares with religion. Let them build their mosques, is it really affecting your life? Is it affecting me? Not at all. Should christian churches be allowed to build near muslim neighborhoods? See? Saying they can't, opens up a hell of a lot of reason for every other religion to be penalized for thousands of reasons. Also, no religion is actually better than another, because none are following the original hebrew scripture verbatim. Ten commandments? How about the other how many hundred?

Each religion seems to pick out what they want to follow, depending on their agenda, and say it's being a believer. No. Being a believer is following the Lord's original world, and the original scripture. Not just attending mass and saying you believe. Not committing sin daily because you think the Lord's son died so that you can KNOWINGLY and WILLINGLY sin DAILY. No, His death was supposed to be something to learn from. People have somehow twisted the original scripture into such a piece of disgusting text... That I don't see the point. Saying that someone died so you could continue to sin? What was the point? Think about it. The Lord, being all knowing, would not have done something he A. Knew was going to happen, and B. wasn't meant to teach a lesson.

So come on people, this is just ridiculous. Any modern religion isn't better than any other, and if you haven't read the original scripture translation verbatim, and you don't follow that word, you aren't better than athiests. You are basically choosing to worship a false God, seeing as how you worship false text. So, grow up America. Seems daily I am more disgusted to have been born in this country.

Buddy, they are not muslims who came here on visa. They are Americans. Muslim is their religion. The way you speak is as if they came right over from the middle east. And had the idea to build a mosque. It's not on ground zero, it's blocks away. If the media hadn't made such a big deal about it, no one would care. The media brought the question: Is it wrong. Who cares? How about this. When 9/11 happened, did you quick rush into the buildings to help the people? Were you RIGHT there? Did you stop your life, to go and aid people? If not, then who are you to whine about it?

That's the thing I really don't understand about people in our country. Always so quick to stop what they are doing, and bitch about something. Yet you never see them stop what they are doing to go do something to help the cause. Stop whining on the internet for attention, acting like you care so much about the many who died on 9/11. If you cared so much, you would've been there, or sent a lot of money to the families, or did something worthwhile.

The way I look at it. Is it ok for people to build a christian church near a muslim neighborhood? Is it ok for catholics to build a church near a christian neighborhood? Do you see what I mean? A muslim may have been killed in that neighborhood, or whatever. Why not a big deal about that? Also, they didn't conquer ground zero. Maybe if you had a higher education, you'd see a bit past the "plane caused the buildings to collapse" propaganda. They were built after the empire state building. The empire state building had been hit by a war plane. The towers were specifically built to withstand a 747 hitting them. The complex network of steel which made the core of that building would not have weakened sufficiently to collapse the whole building. It's scientific fact. Jet fuels cannot burn hot enough to melt steal. They burn hot enough to weaken it, but also realise that the fire's were oxygen starved. You don't see that level of smoke after that long, if the fire isn't dying out.

Why did the firemen state it could be saved? Why did the towers pancake? How did they hit the ground in under ten seconds? Hopefully you finished highschool, so you'll understand when I explain this. Gravity is 10 m/s approx. The towers fell at the rate of gravity. Meaning, they encountered NO resistance from the floors below. This is impossible. They should've encountered resistance, and even if there was a collapse, it wouldn't have been the whole building. Again, the core was built to avoid this, and yet...

So, sorry. Let them built their mosque. Our government, even if they didn't directly have a part in the towers' destruction, could've stopped it. Not only did they receive a threat, and blow it off. They can have incerceptor fighters in the air and at location in under ten minutes. They also could read the altitude, location, and speed of planes traveling anywhere above the states. It's a little funny, that on that very day, they were "training" for this exact type of "attack"... Give me a break. Our government is to blame, in one way or the other. And it's sickening that most of the nation doesn't have the slightest clue or care about how this attack could even be allowed to happen.

Thank the republicans. They still to this day don't admit that Bush was bad for this country, and they still talk crap about Obama. Saying things like "Why aren't there more jobs? Why isn't the economy fixed?"

A. The republican's voted no to the new stimulous package that would've helped fund longer unemployment compensation, and about 2 million more jobs. AS well as tax credits to small and medium sized businesses to hire more employees. The republican's didn't like the original health care bill... And it's now sadly been compromised to such a flawed bill it's not even funny. It was passed, won't go into effect for 3 years, yet the insurance companies have raised prices nearly 30 percent already...

B. How can one president be expected to fix 8 years of wrongdoing? And how can he be expected to do it in a year... Grow up America. Stop pretending the families of those lost in the WTC attacks are your main concerns, you aren't them, and it's none of your business. You, and the media, bringing it to everyone's doorsteps, and making it a big deal again. That's doing more harm to them, than just letting the mosque be built, and not talking about it. Grow up. I must say it over and over again. Grow up America.

So in summation, everyone who has a problem with the mosque being built, go back to your daily lives. You aren't out there dedicating all of your free time to helping a good cause. And you aren't dedicated half of your salary either. So I don't see where your opinion carries weight at all. For the families of those lost in the WTC attacks, I wish you the best, my heart still goes out to all of you.

I download stuff every day. I do it for a purpose though, I test the software and all it's competition, on full instead of demo. If after I check everything out it is worth it I buy it. If just using them demo's is supposed to make me want to buy it... not happening. I'd like to actually save a project, and run it, see the quality, and then I'm sold.

Music: No offense, but most music made these days is devoid of talent anyway. So downloading some high bass songs to play on my 3000 watt system while I'm driving isn't tearing the industry down.

Movies: I could just as easily skip the download, piece together youtube clips, and make the movie anyway. The downloads are devoid of the special features. So if the movie is THAT good, I will purchase for the extra features.

Games: Meh, tell them to work a real job for a day, and manage college while doing it. Sorry, not all of us opt to live with our parents, some like to rough it. I'm not about to keep paying 60 dollars for the newest games. Then 10 dollars for every downloadable add on they make, which tends to have glitches and problems anyway.

All in all, I look at it like this. Are the developers/musicians working hard? Do they have a dark tan because they WANTED it or because they were working up on a 3 story roof for 12 hours in 100 degree weather? Exactly. They should be happy that other people want to be involved in their music and movies, etc. They are ungrateful. Say you are dedicated, you buy all CD's and go see them as much as you can. How many times do they turn out to be total dickheads? How many times are they so arrogant you stop even liking their music...

When they all look at themselves as normal humans like us, I'l gladly start paying for their products again.

Ugh, no offense, but anytime I see a person toting dark energy, free energy, or any of the above, I feel the need to call BS. While we can think of many theories of how attaining FTL travel could be somewhat possible. It is known that it must then be proved plausible. Lets put it this way.

Let's put it this way. To make it simple so that everyone may understand. You cannot change direction in space, unless you use the "sling shot maneuver". You can't just choose to turn whenever, and seeing as even if we COULD attain FTL travel. How would we map out full destinations? How would we stop? I don't want to be the ass that has to point it out, but do you think it's possible for a human to steer a ship traveling FTL? No, at best it would be handled by computer. Even then, just how far can we map? How far along can we predict objects floating perhaps into the vessel's path at the wrong time? To make it very, very simple. Not only could we not create stable elements with near enough energy through fission in our atmosphere, but anywhere these elements could be created, would be unreachable by us. We can even create stable ununpentium in our atmosphere, and if anyone thinks uranium, or plutonium are honestly even ideal for FTL travel...

There's a big difference to understand. There is classical physics, quantized, and theoretical. Theoretical has to prove itself through classical and quantized calculations. Converting mass into energy is no simple feat. Through fission chain's you could attain the energy equivalent to that of the MOJ ~~ energy, but that would literally require more resources than could be found all throughout the planet. It would literally require an element far, far beyond the scopes of any intelligent life's wildest dreams. Our bodies, nor vessel's we can create, could withstand the atmosphere's which would allow such elements to be made stable. So while the theories remain "possible" in theory. They are forever impractical. Forever implausible.

Most of the populace thinks they see UFO's... Most of the populace can't understand that none of us can fathom the difference between human made aircraft flying ten times the speed of sound, and an Alien ship supposedly traveling FTL. Honestly, next person that tells you they saw a UFO. Ask them if they could fathom ten times the speed of sound. It's technically impossible. Human senses could not differentiate motion that fast, nor discern it from anything traveling faster. It would be like claiming you are super-human. Dr. Greer... Leer, Lazar... there are a hell of a lot of people claiming there is evidence. Claiming we should believe and be open, yet they can and never will be able to provide proof. Yet they are quick to bash on religion, and religious people vice versa... Neither side has proof, neither will ever provide it. The only thing we know is that we CAN travel faster than the speed of sound. Probably much faster than we think, just not anywhere near Light speed or FTL.

A. It's not that xbox was going to do it on their own. It's more like facebook and twitter make deals with companies. So it would've been facebook and twitter who went to microsoft and sony, not the other way around. Learn how it works or stop using it as "proof".

B. You may not like Killzone 2, but you can tell the millions that do, that they apparently don't and play it for no reason.

C. Blu-ray adds better definition. An HD DVD can't handle the highest formats possible, meaning can't handle the highest resolution. Let's make it simpler. What looks better? A wmv video or an avi? Hopefully that put's it in laymans terms for you.

Here are reasons PS3 is better, and I will only use facts.

PS3 has support from more developers than 360 when it comes to the motion control wars.

PS3 now has a paid subscription plan. You do realise we are getting the ability to play music while playing games, have cross game chat, voice messages without needing video. We are basically getting everything you guys whine about having. Oh, we also get huge discounts on almost every PS3 game. As well as a free PSN game each month. As well as invites to any Beta's. And much, much more.

Here is a fact for you.

Kinect CAN NOT handle FPS games. It is being made for casual games, and casual games only. It can only at optimum settings, detect movements down to 3 centimeters. The Move plus eye can detect movements down to the millimeter, as well as down to 1 degree in tilt.

Also, we already have games that utilize kinect technology. Eyepet for example. If you didn't know, kinect technology was shown on the PS2 with eyetoy back in 2003/04. Just as well, the company that developed "natal/kinect" came to Nintendo and Sony first, both companies turned them down. Why? Because it's not versatile enough. It's more of a niche. Yeah, it wow's people at first glance. But eventually dance games, and casual shovelware won't be worth the 60 dollars a game.

All move games will only be 40 dollars. We are getting 3D gaming. Sounds pretty sweet to me. Plus, before you go whining about the Kinect camera being better for motion capture. It's not the camera so much as it's the software. Two RGB camera's aren't going to do motion capture without software. Our camera has 4 background cancelling mic's and can do true 1:1 capture. Add 3D gaming, and the option to play kinect style games, classic controller games, or wii type... Why WOULDN'T you buy a PS3? Also, Why would you buy 360 exclusives when most of them could be played on your PC? Why buy Microsoft's console, to play games you could play on the PC you are writing comments here with...

You could've spent 200 dollars to get yourself a graphics card that makes your 360 look like a barbie doll...

I'll admit, Fable II looks nice as hell, as well as a few games only on Live. I enjoy my PC for that though.

Who uses the console to watch movies or surf the web? Why don't you then say "Who actually uses computer's to play video games?". See the irony?

Multiplayer isn't more challenging on either. 360 has a bigger community, as well as a lot more people devoted to not having a life. Plus, yeah I can see how there is a challenge. You have to deal with modders (we don't, PS3 is unhackable).

Graphic quality: You apparently didn't read the comment one or two above your own. Most games up until lately, have been developed ON the 360 and THEN ported to the PS3. Seeing as how the cell processor is set up way differently than standard multi-core's, can you not understand WHY the graphic content has been better? Also, how's this for a turn around. You know Crysis 2? A game made by Crytek, using CryEngine 3. One of the leads even stated that so far, the game engine has performed and looked better on the PS3, not the 360. That's because Crytek came into the console devving game late. Meaning they took their time with both consoles, and got to know how each are set up.

The PS3 equipped with a cell will outperform any 360 in processing and rendering. The Cell is made of a PPE and 8 SPE's. One of the SPE's is there in case any of the others should fail. The other seven are managed by the PPE. It gives each of them tasks, and tracks the work they've done, are doing, and need to do. In this way, it processes the data simultaneously, performing essentially 3 times more efficient than the Xenon in the 360.

A game developed perfectly on the cell, and on the xenon, will perform and look better on the PS3. Anyday. No matter what. It's a fact. If you care to dispute this, take your "evidence" which you didn't account the port factor into, to IBM and SONY, and see what they have to say. Beside's X86 is going to be a thing of the past. Just as well, you do realise Blu-ray is the future. Dual layer HD DVD's can only hold a maximum of 30 gigs, where as Blu-ray can hold 50 gigs. Meaning no need for multiple disc's for us to play huge games. Just as well, Blu-ray is owned by Sony. So, even when the NEXT consoles come out, Microsoft won't have Blu-ray. So enjoy buying a 200 dollar blu-ray player eventually, while we keep watching true high definition on our freakin game console.

The PS3 can outperform the 360 in frames as well. Once again, take into account that A. InfinityWard/Activision have a DEAL WITH MICROSOFT. This is why DLC is available earlier on Microsoft. B. The GAME IS MADE ON PC/360 THEN PORTED TO PS3. Meaning, a game they devoted to development on a certain platform, is then shambly ported over to our platform, which utilizes a still practically brand new architecture. So, when you are proficient in at least objective C scripting, maybe you won't be testing without software. Maybe you will also first do some research, before coming here and making fanboy claims. If you are a gamer, whichever console has the games you prefer is the way to go.

Technologically speaking, your system, as well as any Windows computer, will never be able to outperform cell/BE equipped supercomputers or servers. Just like your system can't outperform our's. IBM's top line of super computers and servers are now cell/be. So please, go tell them that they are wrong to do this. Apparently you have more education than them.

Yes, I did make a mistake on Steve's last name. My bad, apparently I was in a bad mood that day lol. And yes, I do despise Microsoft. Also, stealing is a form of dicking over.

And I don't personally hate the 360, or people who generally like the games. My biggest problem is the fact that millions of 360 fanboys, won't at least admit that the PS3 is technologically advanced.

Not only can we upgrade/replace our HDD's with any 2.5" Sata laptop drive, but we have a hell of a lot the 360 doesn't. Most people don't understand the difference in RAM types. I would literally have no problem if everyone owning a 360 said straight out that they love the 360 because it has the games THEY prefer. But instead they act all smug, "360 has 512 mb","360 was made by Microsoft, the richest company in the world". And when it comes down to talking tech, they can't handle it. And I'm not being more of a dick than most of the people have been before my comment. So, to point mine out, seeing as I've grown frustrated with the lack of understanding of opinion vs. fact... seem's redundant.

On the light side, I do agree with the sales pitch. Gotta say that I've played on Xbox live, and I truly don't get it. You'd think with how many more people owning it, there would be a bigger/better community. Yet you only have even more people being dicks, screaming into the headphones, killing team mates, sending you hate messages (voice messages are the most annoying...). Honestly, why would I pay 50 dollars a year, to play with even MORE 12 year olds who think they are top dog because they play video games lol. Best way to get them back is by telling them to get a job, and then come back to talk, then mute them. For some reason muting them makes them flip 100 times harder.

Ok, time to end this whole debate ONCE AND FOR ALL. The PS3 IS BETTER. And here is why:

First let us look at Microsoft, and their track record. How were they made? Do they copy other companies? Are they really a great company?

1. Why does the richest company in the world need you to pay them to play games on their console online? Hmmm?

2. Why, when they are into computers, did they not just make software that would turn your home PC into a gaming revolution easily integratable into your HDMI set-up etc. Don't say it is so easy, because while I, and YOU might know how to do it... The millions of people who only use their PC's to troll on youtube, and whatever don't have a clue. Geek squad most likely hooked their computer up in the first place.

3. Bill Gates and Steve Wozniak. The two founders OF Windows software... Yet we all know how Bill dicked Steve over. And took Microsoft into his own hands. What did STEVE do? Built an operating system (Mac), that sells more and more each day. Is mostly virus free. Is less bulky, less hazardous. Less prone to fail. Comes packed with more out of the box DIY software like IDVD, IMOVIE, IMUSIC, etc.

Microsoft is so cheap that they removed Windows Movie Maker (was shit anyway) in Vista and 7. Not ONLY that but to make Windows Movie maker on XP anywhere near as good as IDVD you had to pay 15 to 30 dollars to upgrade...

4. WTF was Zune? Inferior every way to the Ipod, and yet they made it to compete with Apple... Fail again.

5. WINDOWS 7. I'm looking at it right now, and still I'm not sure if its WINDOWS made to look like MAC OS X, or if they just copied MAC OS X ENTIRELY and put some windows logos in. Get real, MAC sells so good for all the functions that Windows 7 claims they ADDED for the PEOPLE. But they really added them as a gimmick. Something to lure in the gullible, while not mentioning failures, non-compatable software, and lets point out that Mac OS was doing most of this since the late 90's. Way to take a decade to catch up Microsoft.

6. They MAKE a NEW VERSION of Windows every few months it seems now. Which tempts people to rush sooo fast and get the newer version, which they put a hefty price tag on, and upgrading isn't much better. But oh my god we all need the new Windows right? It has ALL OUR ideas right? Is it just me or did I miss the invitation to put my ideas in. Because if so... Windows 7 wouldn't be the shithole it is.

7. WTF is Microsoft's problem? They act like a monopoly. Buying out Yahoo, trying to buy google. They are competing with a god damn search engine that is how bad they want to control EVERYTHING. They've filed a lawsuit against google. WHY? Because Microsoft owned/sponsored websites aren't always on the top of Google's search lists. Well wait, doesn't google rank stuff depending on relevance, most unique visits, etc.? That's so wrong that EVERY website gets a FAIR shot to be on top isn't it? Microsoft is calling GOOGLE the monopoly... yet Microsoft is trying to compete for the Mobile PHONE OS (fail horribly), Mobile MP3 players (FAIL HORRIBLY), Computer operating systems (FAIL HORRIBLY). Stop, you know HOW BAD Microsoft FAILS? Let's put it this way, I like Linux because I own a SERVER. I'm a web DEVELOPER and software ENGINEER. Linux, Ubuntu, THEY ARE BETTER FOR THAT. AS far as everyday operating systems... Microsoft must FAIL really hard for non-technology person(s) to be using and defending systems like linux and ubuntu. WOW.

Now lets finally get to reasons the PS3 is BETTER.

When it first came out people were crying about it's price tag... But lets REALLY look at the tech and then can we complain about the price?? At that time Blu-Ray Players were brand new as well and you couldn't get a good one for less than 300 dollars, even today you can't get a great Blu-ray player for cheap. So lets mark the price at 300 dollars. Ok. Built in Wifi, how much is the 360's wifi adapter? 99 dollars. Ok lets add this. 399 bucks. Isn't todays most powerful PS3 ONLY 400 bucks? Wow... lets keep going anyway. The PROCESSOR. It took a budget of 400 million dollars, and 4 years, co-development by Sony, Toshiba, and IBM to create the Cell/BE engine processor. So now, During Development Microsoft wanted their own, and they had to go to IBM to make them the Xenon. Which is no great feat at all, and cost way less than the CELL/BE.

STOP > Sony put a budget of 400 million into developing something amazing for us, their customers, and for the first how many months sold us their product at a price lower than what it cost to make, resulting in them LOSING money. Just goes to show how much Sony ACTUALLY cares about their consumers as opposed to Microsoft.

Yes, the Xbox 360 came out first, but Microsoft EVEN STATED they rushed to put it out first to gain the marketplace BEFORE SONY. This resulted in shambly development, which gave the RROD problems to 10,000 systems per week, and has brought Xbox failure rates up to 33 percent... That's disgusting.

RESUME > Batteries/ Charging. Ok, lets look at PS3, comes out the box with rechargeable Wireless controller. 360 you buy the adapter... OR buy batteries. LEts quick assume that in a given 365 days for a hardcore 360 gamer, they go through 2 sets of batteries per week (REALLY LOW ESTIMATE, WILL STILL PAINT THE PICTURE RATHER NICE). 52 weeks x 2 is 104 x 2 batteries is 208 batteries. STOP > This adds to environmental PROBLEMS. Resume > Price at the dollar store? A dollar for 2 batteries. So 104 dollars per year lowest estimate. But we know the xbox hardcore gamers will go through more batteries than THAT. Let's now see the price of the Adapter. 10 dollars per controller for the rechargable battery pack. So add that to the same controller cost between consoles. We essentially get our PS3 controllers ten dollars cheaper off the bat.

ONLINE FEATURES: Ok, Yes Xbox live was better overall until recently. Sony is giving us cross-game chat (One of the only things Xbox live has on us), Easier friend finding (One of the only things LIVE had on us), among a bunch of other new features. But wait, what will this cost? It costs the Xbox fans 40 - 50 bucks a year to get these features. For us it will cost 0.00 dollars. Zero. Zilch. Nada. Aka. Our game company doesn't milk our pockets THANK YOU.

EXLUSIVES: Ok, now you are going to whine and say Halo is the best game ever made.. but really it's not. The first one was good. Second meh, and each after is milking your pockets. Because you are gullible MORONS. The newest Halo might have a few new online types but come on. Buying the whole new game, ridiculous. They should've just made it DLC and ten bucks. Then you Xbox fans would've had something to brag about.

WAIT > Can't these games be played on Windows? Hmmm... Anyone know that with some tweaking you can actually run these games on YOUR PS3? Installing linux, then emulating windows, it works with minimal lag. People see the 256 mb x 2 as less than the Xbox's single 512 mb. But they don't understand the power of the synergistic properties. Have any of you ever heard of the PS3 cluster? Where atsrophysicists have clustered 8 DONATED PS3's straight from Sony to create a "supercomputer". What does your Xbox 360 have there? Nothing.

COOLING: The 360 makes that annoying fan sound even more annoying by for some reason seeming to be amplified. The PS3 is virtually quiet. Which for Audiphiles can result in greater DB levels from their audio system at lesser volumes. We know this because of the difference in enclosures, outside noise, etc. So you are looking to be immersed in your game, without having to pump the volume a little louder resulting in the neighbors calling the feds? PS3 is the way to go.

MOTION CONTROL PROGESSION:

Natal uses a camera with less than 1:1 ratio... PS Eye has 1:1 ratio. WE win. Natal has shown demo's that Sony showed off on the frickin EYETOY on the PS2, 5 years ago. Fail for microsoft. The company that developed Natal came first to SONY, sony passed, Then Nintendo, nintendo PASSED, and Microsoft got the software no one else wanted. It's voice and facial recognition are nice gimicks, but oh WAIT Playstation EYE already has this SOFTWARE available for DOWNLOAD.

Without controllers Natal is limited to more casual-esque games. As it only PRETENDS to see in a 3D environment, and it needs pretty decent lighting just to function normally. I don't know about you guys, but lets say a new Silent Hill comes out, etc. Do you want to play it in broad daylight? Shit, I like playing horror games in the dark. Fail Microsoft. Playstation Move + EYE have better specs, especially since you Xbox customers aren't good enough for Microsoft to spend a little extra money adding that processor to their camera like they promised... Glad to know your Xbox live money really gets you nothing eh?

And Natal is also limited in that it doesn't sense EVERY axis. So have fun bouncing balls, and playing games that lack the depth of MOVE, and are equivalent in novelty and gimmickry to the Wii. Even Wii-Motion Plus doesn't have half the detail that MOVE does. But wait the number one argument for Xbox fans... "The Move controller looks like a dildo". Apparently all xbox fans have the maturity of 12 year olds. That makes sense anyways, but it's kind of retarded that this is the only negative they've voiced. Our Motion control world lacks lag. Natal can't even perform great in anything than pre-rendered environments and demo's that have been edited to show what they SAY it will do. Half the demo's show stuff that isn't actually implemented into Natal yet. But they HOPE to be able to.

We all saw the MILO demo right? Forgetting how lame it is anyway, did any of you notice the truth about natal? It doesn't recognize individual fingers. The girl "touched" and moved her hand in the water. But she should've kept her hand closed if you think about it because she showed of Natal's biggest Flaw. When she spread her fingers it still retained the shape as if she had a closed hand. Good job Microsoft... Another attempt at rushing a product that no one else wanted, just to milk your fan base for their parents money. That's right, I'm calling ALL Xbox Fans out. I'm willing to bet that the ones who run their mouth's are the one's living with mommy and daddy. The one's who also have ADHD, because they USED to BE SONY FANBOYS, but because Microsoft rushed their product they jumped ship.

Backwards Compatability. Anyone else not understand how Microsoft would not include this? RUSHED PRODUCT. And they discontinued game development for the Xbox, and rendered the Xbox Worthless. Not ONLY that but how comes a company so powerful in the software industry, can't employ FIRMWARE updates to remove "Modded" 360s' MODS. Instead they completely ban them, and what happens? People got away with selling how many of those machines to unsuspecting people. They tried to play online, and Microsoft won't EVEN listen to the complaints. Customer Service anyone?

Another FAIL > With Xbox's Failure rate 33 percent and the PS3 with .02 percent which is better? Go ahead Xbox fanboys, let that sink in a bit...

Did you retain all the information yet? Take this time to Re Read everything. Go ahead.

Ok, now I digress. Show me something better and why I should pay more for a shittier machine known as the Xbox 360. F you. And F Microsoft.

I wish you people would stop acting like Halo is the best thing since sliced bread. It's fun, don't get me wrong, but I actually think Modern Warfare 2 is better than Halo anyday. No offense, but I like more realistic games. I like the better graphics of the ps3. And the ps3 would have those lame Halo games if Microsoft wasn't so worried about losing all of their users. Microsoft sucks, even Apple is beating them in the PC field. Beating them in mp3 players, beating them in so many fields. And You seem to forget. Microsoft is how rich? Do they really need to charge you to play online? No.

Playstation always has, and always will, leave the multiplayer component to the game Devs. And that's how it should be. And Xbox arcade that is coming out or whatever, wow. They basically took Mii's from the wii, and put them in a cylindrical arcade building. Woo Hoo. Playstation Home was actually awesome. Had arcades, had realistic houses, customizable avatars, the whole deal. And was free. But too many people are more interested in the Nintendo's swing the controller while it only limits you to the movements the game wants. There motion senser is so crappy it's not even funny. And Microsoft's new "Natal Project" is going to be on the ps3 too. They didn't make the software, they didn't make the chip. They simply put time into putting a quick "game" or more or less game of having some whiney kid to talk to. Who doesn't even look directly at you, the girl touching the water was decent, but didn't show individual finger waves, etc. It is a shambly attempt at making themselves seem like they are a step ahead.

All Microsoft does is announce everything they are doing, which most people seem to think Sony copies Microsoft, but it's the other way around. Sony is already working on the stuff, Microsoft gets wind of it, and then starts cramming interviews, shows, etc. trying to make themselves look like innovaters. Even Microsoft's Windows 7 which I use on this Dell, is a complete rip off of the Mac OS. And a shambly one as well. Having two windows working in at the same time has been done by mac for a decade now. And Microsoft pushes those commercials "I'm a PC, and Windows 7 was my Idea". Nope. Unless by it being "our" idea they meant us complaining aobut Windows all day every day, and saying that MAC OS takes a piss on Windows. Then yeah, it was our idea to complain about a shit product, put under harsh copyrights, and allows virus's in like they are returning visitors to your home. Etc.

The fact of the matter is XBox puts their stuff out first, while Sony is continually working on more innovative things. And they are always indeed a mile ahead of Microsoft, but Microsoft is just a bit louder. That's what I love about the PS3. They don't shove it in your face. Nor are they afraid to build something like the PS3, which technically speaking is realistically worth at least 1200 dollars, and people complained about the mere 600 dollar pricetag. Well guess what, it outlasts the XBox, it outperforms the XBox. And Microsoft will not strive on their crap games alone. Even with the motion controller, Playstation went under the carpet about it for months and months. Microsoft announce Project Natal when the actual creator or the software/hardware which isn't owned by Microsoft, was working on it initially. And they do a hell of a job acting like they are the creators. Microsoft should be kicked out of the console race for good, because all they want is to sell you a half assed product, buy all rights to whatever games are well received, and then make you pay for the "exceptional live features". Which I'm sorry, but the funniest thing is that top scientists have made supercomputers out of ps3's. What has the 360 been used for?

I use it as something to aim at when I must take a leak. It's crap. And they will have to constantly try and steal ideas, and claim them as their own, for all time. Because Microsoft was founded on coniving, stealing, etc. And that's what they are all about. F Microsoft. For a multi-billion dollar company, they sure find a way to charge you for everything you buy from them, and then further to use some of the features on their hardware. Disgusting. I hope Microsoft gets decomissioned. They are complaining about every company that has them beat. Google's search engine, they are trying to take google to court because more people use google. Wahhh, wahhh. Bill Gates isn't even that smart of a man. He's no Einstein, and he certainly doesn't deserve my money. PS3 is better.

Here is me mocking all Xbox 360 users

"Why get blu-ray when you have HD? Idk, because all dvd's will switch to blu-ray eventually, then you'll have to pay a chunk for a blu-ray player, which if you had just bought the ps3, you would've gotten at essentially a huge discount. Who cares if it allows for you to install operating systems, play music from your computer by just connecting through your network, with no wires needed. Who cares if you can move from tV to TV in your house a not need to plug an ethernet cord in to enjoy it. And seriously, like who cares that the playstation 3 is more powerful, essentially a whole home entertainment system, being sold at 50 percent it's original production cost, who cares if they don't make you pay for their online features, who cares if it will be around and evolving for the better side of a decade?"

To all people arguing the Xbox is better, to give you a better understanding of your lack of education... You base the quality of a gaming console solely on the games developers make exclusively for it. If you wouldn't keep paying to play online Microsoft wouldn't have the money to keep the exclusiveness. And Halo, Gears of war, Conviction, it would all be ported over gladly. Not to mention, if you didn't pay Microsoft so much they wouldn't make it impossible for a co-ineraction between consoles IE: Being able to play online with xbox users OR ps3 users. The more you pay them just to enjoy all the functions of the console you already paid for, the more they will keep ripping everyone else off, and giving you less for more money. So enjoy being uneducated consumers. Enjoy allowing a company to try and be a monopoly, while trying to sue other corporations for the same thing. Microsoft will die off, and then you will all be crying. While we continue our free playing.
