word leaked out from x-box testers that there have been some major problems in the designing of the system and its games.. creater of MGS2 claimed, "everytime run the game we get an illegal operation" while somereports even indicated getting the infamous "blue screen of death" while simply plugging the controllers into the port, which are named with such ingenuity: "dual shock for dummies" miscrosoft employees have been jokingly naming the system, "the blue box of death" and bill gates himself was quoted to say, "just put a damned 'OK' button on it!" check back for more updates soon on this exciting situation.

Oh, you know what would be rich? Bleem abandonning support for the Bleemcast and going to Xbox for a few months. Just enough time to cash in the checks and to move on the game cube. -Mu0n

I doubt thats true...microsoft knows everything about computers and so could fix any problem which comes up. Bill Gates is a computer genius, so he knows whats up whenever an error message appears. Anyways the blue screen error message only shows up with NT operating systems and to my knowledge, xbox isn't utilizing such an OS.

Well the problem is that you are laughing at Microsoft when Sony has the worst games on the market right now. Dreamcast quality games at best and low-end PC quality games at worst and there should be no excuse for this! If I were you, I would worry about getting your money's worth from the PS2 because all lauch games for the USA Suck at best. SSX can be done on a Dreamcast or PC for crying out loud, and so can all the other games... Summoner, please... Its funny, Sony Fans are in no position to put down the xbox when they can't even get any good games besides MGS2 and thats going to xbox. I think Sony fans are upset and getting desperate now... PS2 is only an entertainment machine/PC thats all it is..

Hey Jackass (Docwiz). Sony's games aren't the worst on the market. The US games aren't even on the market. Wait until October 26th, and then you can complain about Sony have the worst games on the market as you undoubtedly will. (Of course without playing them first) ------------------

Hey Docwiz, did you realize that Shen Mue, Phantasy Star Online, and Grandia II can all be done on the PS2? Every system has flaws.

Taomega Every single windows version has blue screens and they show their ugly faces at least a couple of times a week... Windows is the worst OS EVER! I think Gates and his ass jockeys deliberatley

posted 10-03-2000 06:49 PM funny how we chastise XBox, Sega, and Nintendo players for bringing info in here, fanboy news or not. But then you guys go here and post obvious BS. Get a ******* life, if you dont like what fanboys have to say, dont reply to them, dont be a fucken retard. IMM- fanboys - SegaCultX, Cronus, Jumpman, #Racer#, ddaryl, segaslave, Trinitus, ReverendXBox, Docwiz, WegaMan, Waspman and to some extent Chrono. These are not because they have opinions that differ from mine, actually some of their opinions are in line with some of my own, but most of these people can't keep an argument going without an insult or making fun of Fanboys. Also, some people post threads purely for blood. I know I have incited a war once every while, but I have won nearly every one of my arguments through facts and not insults!!!

Docwiz: With a setup like that, wtf are you doing on a sony forum praising x-box and chastising sony? If I were you, I'd be putting that piece of hardware to some good use, but doing what you are doing here is just a waste of a machine. You should auction it off to some poor bastard with a 486 who I know will put it to better use then you have by trying to prove points in a forum whos opinions obvious mean little to nothing to you. I dunno, maybe it's just me, but you're either spoiled rotten or just a dumb 12 year old who got lucky in a contest and won that beautiful piece of equipment. In any case, you OBVIOUSLY have no idea what to use it for... that much is apparent from your ovious fanboy presence here. Don't worry though, i'm sure that gigahertz will be used well in the next few hours replying to this message faster then most people on this board... it's too bad that's all your computer is good for in your hands. ------------------

Alot of the reasons for the illegal operations and BSOD is because of idiotic actions people make when using their computers. If you know what your doing and do it how it's supposed to be done then Windows will run like a dream. Disregard this post if you still use Win3.1 which in itself is an illegal operation edit: see what happens when you take too long to write a post? Somebody already writes an answer [This message has been edited by IvoryGrail (edited 10-03-2000).]

quote: That machine costed me around $5000 back in April 2001. Because I use the machine to access my machine at work to do SQL Server work, I can use the machine as a tax break. I do use the machine for more than a web browser post, much much much more. I spend most off my time off the boards or out with the wife. I am 32 years old, so I am not 12 years old. My point isn't how great my computer is, my point is that I have a ton of stuff running on my computer and I run a lot of it daily and no blue screens. My system is very stable and I don't have any problems with it. I have a US Robotics external modem but I don't use it since I have DSL hooked up between the two computers in my home network.

quote: Well look at all the videos from PS2.IGN.COM for the ones that I didn't play at E3. At best they are DC quality (SSX, GT3, Gameday come to mind) and at worst they are lowend PC quality (Summoner, Might and Magic, Twisted Metal, etc... come to mind) Its all hype, I don't know why you people can't see that. Fanboy or not, reality has to set in at some point and you have to be disapointed in what the PS2 offers. Thats why games arnt selling in Japan that well compared to DVD movies, because the games are not quality games, period, end of story...
