microsoft gets rude

remember the electronics show in the 80\'s (something like GDC) when nintento scared the people at the NES graphics display? making them all vote for NES as the biggest and best console and making fun of all competitors?

maybe. maybe not.

but this time microsoft pushed it a bit too far. the video with the xbox robot (same one as in GDC 2000) crushing a ps2 and then laughing was showing how bill gates was the kinda "brag on and on about himself" kinda guy (and, as rumored, the devil ). If i was a graphics editor, i\'d edit that movie so that the ps2 would send of a extremely high electric charge flying through the robots body when his leg got near, so that he would explode.

what do government election candidates resort to when they cant hype themselves up anymore?  they sling mud.  bill knows full well that if the xbox fails, microsoft stock falls.  it wouldnt be the 1st time stockholders voted the owner/CEO out of a company. i wonder if steven jobs would hire him as a janitor?  its about time bill cleaned some crap up.

mm

I have not seen the video yet but it sounds funny.  But you did have a good Idea about sending an electronic voltage throught the robot...  But watch, you change the video and MS sues you for copyright infringment on their video.  HA HA HA

Where is this video?  Are you talking about the rumors from Xbox365?

Damn bill gates, that rich point dexter. Arent we all glad that we continue to rip his company off. =D You all know what im talking about. I know alot of you out there have gotten free copies of win 98, win Me , win 2000 off of friends and warez sites. ANeways BAH the xbox looks horible. The controller is  a massive piece of $hit. BAH to the xbox. For some laughs go here.

Yeah, I\'d really like to see the video very much. This way I\'ll hate Bill Gates even more

you guys are so pathetic (Wowm havent had a chance to use this word in a while )

"Oh I hate Bill Gates because he is 100 million times richer than I ever will be, also because he makes fun of how the XBox is far stronger than the PS2."

Quit your whining, would you be saying the same thing about Sony if THEY were about to releqase the console system and Microsoft already had released theirs? NO! You would say, "Ha look at how bad SOny\'s machine is going to kick MS\'s butt."

So buck-up and deal with it, X-Box is much more powerful than PS2.

Also, how come you don\'t like the controller? It seems to be alot like PSX\'s controller, which you so adamently believe is the best controller of all time. :rolleyes: Except, this controller isn\'t made for 6 year olds, it is made big to hold and not wrap your fingers around eachother! hahahaha

why does the entertainment industry have to be so aggressive. i remember when you could go out wearing a t-shirt saying sega and not run the risk of being beaten to a pulp.
ahh yes, those were the days.

altered, i dare u to tell me bill gates isnt a thief.  check yer history before u speak, tho

at any rate, i already said the xbox console looks hella cool, but the controller is totally assanine.  should come with a warning from the surgeon general saying "will induce carpal tunnel syndrome"

mm

unfortunately altered speaks the truth. The xbox is three Xs more powerful then the PS2. BUT that doesnt necessarily mean better games. ............and BILL GATES IS A BLOODY THIEF!!!

Altered Beast Bill gates has been hatefull even before he revealed his plans about MS creating a console.Its just that now he is more hated

Let me get this straight, hold on... you guys hate Bill Gates even more because he is making a console. SO that right there says that you are afriad his is going to beat Sony\'s. you hate him because you fear him. People fear what they don\'t understand. If some people would learn that having more consoles = having better games as developers continually try to outdue eachother.

Also, I don\'t care if he has stolen ideas, or used muscle to get where he has gotten, the mad has donated over 2 billion dollars into charities. I don\'t care if that gives him a tax cut or not, he is right now helping to get rid of a horrible disease polio, which is wiped out of america, but many still suffer in Africa and man other places.

I for one will be buying an X-Box on launch. Why? He has Peter Molyneaux, John Carmack, Romero, etc. all convinced that he has the bets machine to work for, the games will be there. They have many developers and many, HUGE, first party developers. No Yu Suzuki, Yuji Naka, or Miyamato, mind you, but big, very BIG!

Why would anyone HATE Bill Gates? WTF did he do to any of you personally??? Quite whining, the commercial/video/whatever sounds goddamned hilarious! Theif-schmeif.... so he did some back stabbing in his career, name ONE person who\'s one or the ten richest ppl in the world who didn\'t! What? You can\'t! You might not like it, but Bill Gates, and very many successful ppl, step on a lot of ppl to become successful, and if everyone played \'nice\', whe\'d all be poverty stricken monks. Everyone on this board does something \'wrong\' every day of their lives. Stop being pussies.

Damn Altered, I wish I\'d said that....thats what I get for sniffing glue....

hahah! EThugg, you gotta be quick! That whole glue sniffing thing probably killed your chances too
