Which company will drop out first?

[Virtualboy]

Name which gaming company that currently is producing systems or is soon too.

I'm not going to bother voting. But shit like this:

Sony, It's just gay in your opinion

...will put the final nail in your coffin pretty goddamn fast around here. Watch your ass from this point on.

Agreed.

I did this topic before. Nearly the SAME title. Search for "Which company do you think will be the first to drop out?".

Problem is I don't know how to link to topics...

[Berserker]

I wish someone would link the 40 odd threads that probably exist discussing this topic, so that this thread may die, and nobody posts in the linked threads, thereby saving mine eyes from having to scan over this tripe on a continuing basis, even if it is only a rather minor annoyance.

That continues to be my wish.


EDIT: Search isn't working for me, so I'm not able to provide such links. Anyone?

[JJNova]

I wont vote, instead I'll just tell you that I hope it's..

:P :P :P :P :P :P :P :P

The search isn't working for anyone right now; it appears to be down again.

I've never understood peoples fascination in predicting which company will bite the dust next. Why you would even want that to happen is beyond me. Competition is what keeps things fresh, exciting, and enables gamers to have such a wide variety of games to play.

[tholly]

well, this has been done countless times, but if i were a betting man id say this would be the order


Tiger Gizmondo < N-Gage < Nintendo < Microsoft < Sony


the gizmondo is going no where....and no one is gonna take down microsoft or sony.

the only way either of those 2 are leaving is if the world just stops being intersted in games...

You don't want him calling something "gay" but you can say "Goddamn"?
I'm not going to waste my time discussing that but this is turning into a witch hunt. He’s only been here for a month and you guys are busting his balls every day.
We probably all clicked the thread for the same reason...to link him to Cartcollector's thread.
There’s no reason to treat him so badly, he’s just new and probably doesn’t have any "forum experience".

Watch...I'll show you how I would handle this.

"VB, before you start a topic, see if anybody else has started a similar one. Use the search function before you start a thread. Apparently the search function isn’t working right now soooooo...YOURE BANNED! Ha-ha...nah I'm just sayin' that. I don’t have any authority here. Lesson learned, right? I hope so...don’t make me look bad, man."

What a convenient way to start an argument. You want to offer your point, but you don't want to hear any counterpoints. Maybe you should start a webpage. Unfortunately, this is a forum, so I will put forth a counterpoint:

Look. I don't know if you've noticed in your "forum experience" here that Virtualboy is apparently lacking, but there are people who frequent these forums who are, in fact, gay. Also, there are alot of people who harbor a certain distaste - myself, for example - for using such terms in a negative connotation. That being the case, you just shouldn't use the term "gay" in a negative connotation here, end of story. Virtualboy did, and he got called on it, perhaps rather harshly, but what would you expect? Your "correct" version doesn't even include a reference to the fact - perhaps we should just ignore the fact that he used such terms, and go about our merry way? I don't think so, and I wouldn't expect most of the people here to either.

As for the "goddamn" comparison, I'm going to go ahead and pass that off as hair-splitting to root for the underdog, or perhaps he's just your friend. Taking the name of certain folks' favorite invisible man in vain, and ignorantly associating the very essence of some peoples lifestyle in a way that's incredibly negative, and offensive, are two very different things. We all like to root for the underdog, and stick up for our own - but this guy fucked up, and he got called on it. I mean I'm guessing he didn't do it out of hatred of homosexuals or whatever, it just comes off to me as ignorance, so hopefully he's learned to choose his words a little more carefully from now on.

whats your problem, its a common phrase people use daily,figure of speech, stop being gay.

I wasn't gonna butt in here, but...

1. Obviously, this thread needs locked.

2. VirtualBoy wasn't trying to offend anyone by using the word "gay" in a "negative" way. But I have to contest that this word cannot be "banned" from use around here because it might offend someone, when "goddamn" can, because I, for one, am a Christian and I'm sure that there are others around here that would be offended by it. (I know, that was kindof run-on :P)

So to some that second point up, "gay" should be allowed if "goddamn" is allowed.

(( ^ pure truth, you know it's true ^ ))

whats your problem, its a common phrase people use daily,figure of speech, stop being gay.

Bingo, I know for a fact that a huge number of kids use the word "gay"all the time. If you're offended, "take it with a grain of salt" and forget about it.

Let's rephrase that, It's a common phrase Immature Children use daily.

DP prefers it's members to be a little more mature. If you love the word so much, there's plenty of people over at Gamefaqs that feel the same way you do.

w00t! Another argument!

So saying "goddamn" is less offensive and immature than saying "gay"?

WTF

If "goddamn" is used in a movie, that pretty much guarrantees at least a PG-13 rating. If "gay" is used, it might be up to PG.

Shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up.

It doesn't matter if your buddies in 8th Grade Remedial Algebra giggle every time you call something "gay", it's heavily frowned upon around here.

And with that, I'm putting this thread out of its misery.

P.S.

1. Obviously, this thread needs locked.

Keep all broken-English moderating attempts to yourself please.
