Achievements! Achievements are the most ingenious gimmick this generation. Credit has to be given to MS for this one. Achievements are so great that Sony had to go and release its own half arsed version of them, trophies. This alone makes every 360 multiplat better than its 360 counterpart.

Now I'll sit back and wait for the damage control.

I'll wait for the cows who profess that achievements are worthless, you know - the ones who list their "trophies" in their sigs, and who also brag and praise home for its ability to show off your "trophy" collection.

Then I'll wait for the ones who mention DVD's small capacity when compared to bluray and how it will affect the visuals on Rage. This will likely come from the sme people who have been claiming that while most multiplats look better on the 360, their PS3 counter parts are "just as good", and you can "barely notice the difference".

Lastly, I will wait for all the desperate ones who will come here spouting nonsense like "Have fun with your achievements while you're weaiting to get your 360 back from MS", or something equally silly.

Um okay?

And even then, Achievements and Trophies are just a small aspect of games.

The amount of trophies/ achievements I gain from a game doens't matter to me, as long as I had fun with the game.

And who cares which multiplat version looks better?

With these rules, the board should be renamed Formal System Debates.

The mods have pretty much taken all the "war" out of it.

October.

But our school is under construction right now, from a fire we had recently.

We're gonna miss a few days of Winter Break, no president's break, nor spring break. We will get out at the same time you guys do...June 11th.

Playstation is the one that I'm used to.

This gen is my first Xbox console, and its gonna take some warming up to get me to like that controller more.

The Wii is new, but hard for my set up to control.

Its a problem, but its not as severe as most people think it is.

Yeah you have to wait a few weeks to get it back, but hey, its better than having to buy a new console.

I think the warranty ends this november though, and then you would have to buy a new Xbox360 or pay for it to be repaired. However, don't take my word on that statement, I don't exactly know the whole story behind it.

I guess that means that only Sony is showing up?

=/

Well, its not like I'm going to be able to view the conference anyways, so it doesn't matter to me.
