Wow, I just went out a purchased 2 Samsung 27" dynaflat HDTV monitors, model number TSL2793HF. They are not the best on the market but the picture is excellent, and I got them at a discounted price of $650.00 each because I bought 2. I also got a second XBOX, a Link cable, two copies of Nascar Thunder 2002, another copy of NFL Fever 2002 and Project Gotham Racing. Then to finish it all off I got a Cambridge Soundworks dolby Digital 5.1 surround system to play it through. Hooked it all up in the gaming room, Stocked the mini fridge with Molson Golden, and holy crap the best gaming experience ever. A huge thanks to Mr. Bill Gates for getting it right. The XBOX on HDTV is Stunning. Not to mention 2 seperate monitors and the link cable. Football and racing at it\'s finest.

show off.

now substitute madden 2002 or NFL 2k2, instead of god awful nfl fever 2002, and you got yerself a party! well, 650 may be a bit much for a 27" tv.
the PS2 supports component video signals, im presuming the GC does also without looking, so :o
*disclaimer*
i didnt mindlessly bash the xbox, just stated facts about competing consoles.

Yeah fever is an absolute joke, I thought it was good till I relised the automatic interception and the very easy tackle
-
I haven;t had a chance to try Madden , or NFL2k2 yet. I have been trying to rent them but they never seem to be in.
-
I have been trying to rent them but they never seem to be in.
Perhaps a testament to how good they are?

He never mentioned any other systems this time, give him a break, he seems to be better than he was in his first couple post

:rolleyes: Yeah, I\'m sure he really learned his lesson. :rolleyes:
Not to say he even cares, but if he wants people to lay off with the "Hostile" posts which point out his "Ignorance" and "Fanboyism".. then perhaps he should join in other posts - which do NOT Pertain only to Xbox - and try to become a useful member of these forums instead of a fukking walking Xbox billboard.
Noone says he can\'t like it, prefer it, or even make love to it on an hourly basis.. thats\'s his choice.. his opinion. But come on, there\'s better places on the net to discuss only Xbox topics and it\'s not like he\'d be leaving a whole lot of friends behind. Besides, don\'t forget the whole reason he\'s here is to give "Ps2Fans" a taste of what the Xbox forums have been getting from (equally ignorant and annoying) Ps2Fanboys.
Billy\'s spending HOW many billions on advertising? His money is well spent.. because it looks like he just bought this poor guy\'s ass.

thank you for saying what i "really" wanted to, but couldnt say

Hey NPYYZ your Xbox games must look sharp with HDTV. I played the demo of Nascar Thunder 2002 and that game looks soo damn good! I had the PS2 Nascar 2001 and it was a joke to the Xbox one. The road textures, track, cars even the pit team details amazed me. I tested to see how the cars takes damages so I went 185 mph head on with the other racers and BANG!!! The car that I hit went flying up in the air like 25 ft (scale) with pieces of parts all over the ground and the car cought on fire too. This nascar game rocks! :p

Well not quite. I don\'t stalk fastson, but AFAIK he dosent troll Xbox boards posting only PS2 propoganda. NPYYZ already openly admited that the only reason he\'s here is to piss us off by posting pro-Xbox/Anti-PS2 drivel. There\'s a big difference between being a Sony whore on a Sony oriented board, and going out of your way to stir up trouble with those who you KNOW are of a different opinion.

I couldn\'t possibly think of what better use of 2000 would be.
Could you?

Actually $650.. is a great price for a 27" digital high def. TV. if you buy just one they cost $900.00

That\'s a testament to how good all XBox games are then because none of the Xbox games at the local Blockbuster are ever in. Very rarely can you find one on the shelf. I got lucky and managed to catch Halo when it was being returned and I have seen a few of the snowboarding games in stock, but I\'m not into them.

When i post about the XBOX i do it here, in the console debate forum, when i post about the PS2 i will do that in the correct forum also. Right now the XBOX has my full attention so that\'s the system I am talking about.
Again the little name calling, Why do you diehard PS2 fans get so upset when some is enjoying a different system? It boggles the mind. Ok now every one hug......

I\'ll tell you this, you haven\'t seen the full potental of the XBOX until you see it on HDTV. Stunning. Nascar Thunder in my opinion is a great game if you into nascar, very realistic. It\'s much better then the EA Sports PC version. I have only played about 4 races in career mode but with this game you can\'t just get out front and leave the rest behind, they will catch you.
I can\'t comment on the PS2 version, i have not seen or played it. I\'m sure that Nascar Thunder 2002 looks much better on the PS2 then 2001 did, newer year they improved the graphics like they always do.

NFLwas an ok football game. It just had no realistic feel to it at all. It was more of an arcade football game. I call it exhabition football.
Because I just don\'t feel like I am playing real football. Now madden is more realistic than fever but madden still comes up short. I don\'t have nfl2k2 but everyone says it kicks ass.

i can tell you that Fastson does a lot more research and knows a lot more than npyyz, despite the fact that he speaks it not so elequantly, he is informed enough and does a lot of research in this area of his life which he considers a hobby...
i would wager Fasty to beat ZPYYZ in a console debate of any variety and time, any day of the week (except sunday\'s when im pleasuring him)

my money is on fastson as well

"When i post about the XBOX i do it here, in the console debate forum, when i post about the PS2 i will do that in the correct forum also. - NPYYZ
What part of the forum you post in was never part of the debate or discussion. The fact that you are at a Playstation2/Sony oriented site solely to hype the Xbox is. Really, the ONLY reason why I\'ve been calling you an Fanboy and not a worthless troll is because you\'ve managed to keep this spew within the confines of console debating. Noone ever even said you even had to discuss a PS2 topic to become a useful and productive member. You seem to have just assumed that because it helps your argument.
"Right now the XBOX has my full attention so that\'s the system I am talking about." - NPYYZ
And therein is the problem. It has your FULL - UNDEVIDED - and TOTAL- attention. You can\'t even so much as bring yourself to post a happy birthday message to SmallLady, or debate on one of the hundreds of Off Topics or Rant\'s & Raves... or god forbid even critiqe a NGC/PS2/GBA game without bringing up the Xbox.
"Why do you diehard PS2 fans get so upset when some is enjoying a different system? It boggles the mind."- NPYYZ
Small minds are easily boggled. The real question is, why do fanboys and trolls ~ of any system ~ always assume that fans of a competing console even care what system others enjoy? Most HC videogamers only hate ignorance, closemindedness, vindictiveness, and 3DO. Noone here ever said it was wrong of you to like the Xbox. If you are feeling hostility from some members it\'s likely because we\'re attacking one of the four points above.

I gurantee that NPYYZ will become more open minded in systems after posting here a little while, I know I sure as hell am

So in the console debate forum we are only supposed to discuss the PS2? I think not

I am sitting here reading your post and I have to laugh. You say small minds are easily boggled. Well I say it is a very small mind that can not respond to another person without the high school name-calling and attacks. If you have something intelligent to say, then say it. Don\'t waste my time with your high school mentality, save that for your cheerleaders.
As for ignorance and close-mindedness it is you who seems to excel at both. The question I asked was a simple one. I see now that I must change it. Instead of asking why PS2 fans get so upset when someone likes a different system, I\'ll ask why you get so upset? And you do care, if you didn\'t you wouldn\'t be putting so much energy into attempting to shut me down. You may not have said it was wrong for me to like the XBOX, but you sure don\'t want me talking about it and sharing my thoughts about it on this message board. My post which you responded to, (A New Level of Gaming), was not an attack on any other system. It was merely a post expressing my excitement, and also sharing information that other XBOX owners may find interesting. Don\'t be so offended because someone is on a PS2 message board talking about the XBOX. Again I will Ask, isn\'t that what this forum is for?

NPYZZ,
You talk like you know what\'s best for us, like we have to comprehend every little word you post here about X-Box. Call me a fan of SONY I am proud to be one. But unlike you I\'m not closed minded to the fact that there is a few more consoles out there putting out quality games. Well there\'s 2 at least, Ninkidio is just trying to keep up. Anywho, if you wouldn\'t spend so much time trying to convince us that X-Box is the supreme gaming system, we wouldn\'t spend so much time exposing you as the troll you are. I like Halo, I think it\'s a wonderful game, I play it often but I don\'t own an X-Box. I own a PS2 and I play my games keep my mouth shut and enjoy my system. I don\'t go to X-Box forums wasting my time telling them how much I love my PS2.
Debate all you want, you\'ll get no name calling from me. Oh didn\'t I just call you a troll :rolleyes: Well not anymore name calling from me. The fact is it\'s a matter of TASTE & PREFERENCE.
Enjoy your X-BOX, but geezus don\'t you have anything better to do then to keep posting pro X-Box threads????

I really could care less what system you prefer. The only thing I wish you people could understand is what I actually post. The start of this thread was not to try to make you comprehend anything. It was not an attempt to try to sway you over th o the XBOX\'s corner. As I just said (look up a bit) The "A new level of gaming " post was simply to let other gamers know how awesome the XBOX is when combined with HDTV and Dolby digital 5.1 surround sound. Also the fun that can be had when you link up 2 systems with seperate TV\'s. In my opinion that is a new level of gaming. I\'m sure I could do something simular with my PS2, but I didn\'t want to by a second PS2. I felt if I was going to make this kind of investment, the XBOX was the better choice. Who the hell knows , I may have made the wrong choice, but we won\'t really know that until about a year from now will we?

All I can advise NYYPZ is to stop posting for like 6 months and hopefully most people won\'t remember your xbox fanboy streak, OR read over your post and relise you\'ve been acting like a fanboy

Thanks for the advice. However I won\'t lose any sleep over what people on a message board ,who I don\'t even know ,think about me, or what I post.
What exactly is this "fanboy" crap you are all talking about? I\'m not sure of the different ages of people on this board, but whenever I read the word Fanboy it brings mindless schoolage crap like NSYNC, and The BACKDOORBOYS to mind. I know a lot of the younger people call what these talentless humans spew forth music, but us older folks will stick with bands like NEVERMORE and such.
-
I\'m not sure but I think you have a case of a.d.d., you somehow stopped thinking and went from the word "fanboy" to talking about what you think is a good band. Ok, let me explain. A fanboy is someone who is close minded in there console opinion and thinks one console is god and all others are junk. No matter what anybody says. You are the close minded part mostly, you act like your opinion is the "right" opinion and you think your above everybody else and somehow special. Oh, and going around spewing your opinions and not caring what people think of you won\'t get you very far.

Ok, I did not stop thinking I explained to you what comes to mind (what I think of) when I see the word fanboy.
NEVER did I say the PS2 or any other console was junk. The worst I have said is that I feel the XBOX is better then the PS2. That is just an expression of one\'s opinion.
NEVER did I say my opinion is the right one. That in itself is a contradiction of terms. An opinion can be neither right or wrong it is an OPINION. How is go----opinions are like assholes, everyone\'s got one and they all stink.
I don\'t think I am above everyone else, however I am special. :)
About going around spewing my opinions about what people think and whether or not it "gets me very far", again I could care less. I have friends in the real world. I don\'t have to fuel my ego by making makebelieve ones on the internet.

If you don\'t care what anybody thinks, and your not trying to convert anybody to xbox why are you here in the first place???

"So in the console debate forum we are only supposed to discuss the PS2? I think not" NPYYZ
Where in any of my posts did you get that impression? Look around you little man. This (console debate) forum is full of people who love the Xbox. Why don\'t I go around giving them a hard time? Why don\'t I give them as hard a time as I give you? Oh.. that\'s right.. it\'s because they\'re discussing other consoles and joining in off topic posts as well, not just hyping the Xbox. Watchdog, pstwo, raistlin, Ginko, to name a few, are staunch Xbox supporters.. and more power to them. If you can\'t see why I hound you so much, and not them, then I suggest you open your eyes. Or at least READ in totallity the post you pulled that quip from.
"And that seems to be a problem only for you." - NPYYZ
Closed threads, accusations of fanboyism, threads that are two - 3 pages long full of personal attacks, and even having fellow Xbox supporters tearing you down. Seems like I\'m not the only one who has a problem with you. I just happen to be the most vocal about it. This is fun for me, and I really must say you have been amusing - if not less of a challange than what I\'d hoped for. It\'s not just you either, I used to hound Jumpman and Watchdog also. Over time, they became respectable and constructive members of this forum. Not to say that I was responsible in the least for them becoming that way, but just that since they changed I haven\'t felt the need to be belligerant in any way towards them.. and can debate with them in the way this forum was ment for.
"I am sitting here reading your post and I have to laugh. You say small minds are easily boggled. Well I say it is a very small mind that can not respond to another person without the high school name-calling and attacks." - NPYYZ
Actually I\'d say that was a collage level attack. All I did was state a fact which is commonly true. Small minds ARE boggled easily. You did the damage to yourself by picking up on the presupposition that I was refering to you, confirmed it by not denying it, and insisted on insulting me back.. calling my non-existant attack a "high-school effort". Tsk Tsk.
"Instead of asking why PS2 fans get so upset when someone likes a different system, I\'ll ask why you get so upset? And you do care, if you didn\'t you wouldn\'t be putting so much energy into attempting to shut me down." - NPYYZ
I\'m not upset that you like the Xbox. Never said I was. I also don\'t put any energy into shutting other Xbox fans down. Why? Because it\'s not the Xbox that I have a problem with.. it\'s YOU. Stop trying to make the Xbox your personal scape goat, and maybe you\'ll see what ~not just me~ but a lot of these forum members are trying to tell you. The effort I put into shutting you down is done out of sheer enjoyment, and please don\'t get me wrong. I\'ve shut down several PS2, DC, and NGC fanboys in the past as well. This is the most fun I\'ve had on these forums in a long time.
"You may not have said it was wrong for me to like the XBOX, but you sure don\'t want me talking about it and sharing my thoughts about it on this message board. My post which you responded to, (A New Level of Gaming), was not an attack on any other system. It was merely a post expressing my excitement, and also sharing information that other XBOX owners may find interesting." - NPYYZ
I don\'t particularly care for repeating myself, so please try to understand the very simple concept I\'m offering to you. This is the last time. I have absolutely NO problems with you sharing you\'re Xbox gaming experiences. I DO have a problem with you spouting nothing BUT Xbox propoganda. Until you can learn to be a useful and constructive member of these forums, you will be treated with the same respect as a walking billboard. Which is to say... none.
"Don\'t be so offended because someone is on a PS2 message board talking about the XBOX. Again I will Ask, isn\'t that what this forum is for?" - NPYYZ
No, this forum is for discussing all the different consoles in this generation.. not just the Xbox. It\'s not just in what you post.. it\'s how you post.. and what you respond to, that\'s getting people upset. You can\'t see it for some reason and fall back on the tired cliche of "Oh, I like Xbox and this is a PS2 forum.. so that\'s why they don\'t like me here", when that\'s not even the case at all.
-
Bravo Bravo!! Well said Sonyfan I enjoyed every minute I spent reading that post.
NPYYZ
I don\'t think I am above everyone else, however I am special. :)
I don\'t think you\'ll get any argument from any of us on this subject ;)
