Its kind of comical how a 360 post creates a firestorm of long comments.

Thanks so much Jimmy! That was exactly the reaction I was aiming for. Unfortunately, I still regret this post, as you can see by the rest of the reaction.

Awesome to see a positive 360 thread… even after the other one… still, with every slightly biased anti-360 post I come to bitch, so I thought the least I could do is say this is appreciated. An attempt to reclaim the middle ground. I know this isn’t a 360 site, but I think we need to move on past the point of having to constantly belittle other consoles.

Shame it’s devolved to this. I’d just wager that anytime you post a top three list you’re going to get this sort of battle. Because, just like how different consoles can appeal to different people… the features appeal to different people as well. While I prize the features that make my favorite console my favorite console… they probably mean nothing to the next guy.

Well “Jas3r Rogu3″, you didn’t need to follow the link. As for why we’re discussing a 360? It’s natural to discuss the direct competition. Isn’t that obvious?

Both of these posts completely backfired!

The first post wasn’t simply trying to bash Halo or the 640p thing: I just thought the damage control effort was comical and quite ironic. But it upset a lot of readers.

So I apologized and wrote this post to appease them. But instead of making them happy, it just upset everyone else. Now people are accusing me of being bought by Microsoft.

I don’t like to delete posts, but it’s quite tempting in this case. I’ll post some less inflammatory articles.
