How about the preferred console of people whose buying power is not dependent on their allowance?

Well, I dumped my PS3 since GTA4 killed it (not alone, search "GTA4 killed my PS3" on Google).

Got a 360 and GTA4 for it. Damn, the dvd drive noise is HORRIBLE! I've been spoiled by the PS3, its really bad! Hope I can get used to it in time, but man!

Also the pop-in is FAR worse, buildings and textures keep popping in when I drive, it was very rare on the PS3 version. However, it loads up the game faster than the PS3 version and that has a 3gb install, pathetic!

I hope I'll enjoy the 360 but it is lacking things from the PS3 which makes me miss it quite a bit. I'll get a PS3 later on but its 360 for now.

You sort of get used to it after a while. You'll still find it annoying from time to time FOREVER though. I know I do.

Should be able to replace your PS3, man... But yeah, that's gay...

I don't really have too many issues with pop-in... When you're driving it will happen occasionally but not enough to really notice too much.

Are there fanboys here (or anywhere) that aren't teens? Fuck I hope not.

There are fanboys of all ages.Gamespot back in the day had some of the best fanboys of each console some of them were 32 in fact most gamers are adults.

Gamespot what a shame,now is full of lemmings,teens and anti-lulz.

I won't ever forget Twinblade Epic Thread "Hitler wasn't alive at the same time as Einstein" That was pure epic win.

Gamespot was good back when it was called videogames.com and had the little text box scroller on one page to navigate through all their reviewed games.

I was talking about the forums which were good but fanboy stupidity raised its worth.If you wanna talk about good times I believe it was way before the internet when the only way to get information about videogames was via magazines.


A good story about GS forums was when some guy posted a photo-shopped picture of a real African safari with 3d animals claiming it was Afrika for the Ps3.Trolls responded "everything looks like sh*t" and the SDF claimed the whole environment was so real thanks to the power of the cell.

The amount of drama and self-ownage generated was decent but the "Damage control" of one single user was enough to bump the thread for a while. That user claimed everything in the image was real (Including the 3D animals) even after everyone knew it was a trap ,basically slowpoke was owned hard and it was great.

As Habbo Hotel is pretty much known among 4chan users (pools closed?), I think it would be pretty much interesting to know if there are some 4chan users who are visiting joystiq regularly.?!

Hey I'm a teen and I have a PS3.

Although I'm in the latter half of my teen years, I turn 18 in a couple months =[.

Indeed.

I knew there were a lot of them like Yoo-Foo,Thug-Pikachu(or it was yoo_fo?),right know I only remeber Twinblade and his infamous and yet most famous GS comment of all time:

"lol. Einstein and hitler were in two totally different time periods. ..."

Great SW quotes:

These teen censuses(censi?) are pointless. Everyone knows teens always make stupid choices. Boy bands, Hanna Montana, truth.com, MySpace, emo, and Healies are still here because of teens. Who the hell else would actually listen to the White Stripes?

/laughs nervously

*Hides White Stripes Album.

Actually I liked the White stripes and several of their songs to this day but I haven't heard anything new about them in ages. Well at least is not like the Black Eyed Peas which first recorded a great song which make them famous (I still have my Urbz copy featuring the Black eyed peas), a several good songs then a lot of mediocre songs and after that it was a trip downhill to sh*tiness.

Also what do you want teenagers do anything the media tells them is cool.If MTV tells them they should stick a pole right up their ***** because is cool and is the wave of the future they will do it. Sort of what Fox News does with Hillbillies and Rednecks, if Fox tells them Black Homosexual Half Asian Mexicans are stealing their jobs in the polyester industry and everyone from Nepal is virtually smarter than them and have tons of money they will believe that.

Now if you excuse me the Fox news commentary pissed of someone in the republican party so BRB FBI (For God’s sake vote for Hillary)

well i know for 1 i would not have been able to afford a PS3 when i was that age. hell im 20 now and i could barely afford my 60GB, i work very hard for all the games and stuff i have (plus full time college). but i had zero money back then (assuming by 'teen' they mean around 16) and there was no way in hell my parents would buy me a $500 console. i always thought the PS3 was geared more to the older audience anyway cause of the price and features. i dont know, my 12 year old little cousin just got a 40GB for christmas.

I thought it was for the fact you had to use real money to buy bad drawn forniture.

Serioulsy Habbo hotel like Second life are scams.I feel sorry for the poor idiots paying for virtual forniture and stuff in those pseudo-games

Habbo seems a bit out of touch. Teens in my area rate their interest thus: 360, PS3, Wii (if they even know about Wii, talk to a number of them and they vaguely remember "That gay GameCube thing" And didn't know Nintendo was still making consoles)

Unless you're from the UK where this pales in comparision to most of the stuff we have to pay for ¬_¬

That includes taxi fares, for the price of 4 rides into London and back home, I can buy a PS3 with sixxaxis and everything, lol
