  More on the PS3....wow...

  sony, are you serious? you don't make all games support all output resolutions? what the **** kinda bull**** is that? I didn't even realize this at first because MGS4 actually does support all resolutions and that was the first and only game I played to begin with. and of course the 65" tv in my house goes from 480p to 1080i (think it has 720i tho). so I'm forced to play just about all ps3 games (I thought it was only on early games like resistance one, but heavenly sword and EVEN RESISTANCE 2!!! are like this!!!). sony you need to get with the ****ing program and standardize **** like M$. one online account for all games. make everything the same. i got a ps3 for blu ray and video games. I DIDN'T WANT A DAMN COMPUTER that has compatability issues and crap! seriously this is the nail in the coffin in my argument for 360 over ps3.
  **********EDIT****************
  I just read that what it actually is is that 360 up converts to 1080i whereas ps3 doesnt. i'm no less disappointed in them because thats equally stupid. here's a comparison of 1080i vs 480p...http://www.geocities.jp/bellinus_crispa/cg/480p_versus_1080i.jpg

  PS3 impressions

  I'll be honest I got my 360 at launch and have waited until last friday to get my PS3. i got an 80gb with rachet and clank and casino royale bundled with it and purchased mgs4. i've been loving mgs and R&C is just like on PS2 (which isnt bad). and i can't wait to build up my blu ray library. HOWEVER, am I crazy to think that sony is a bunch of asses for not including ANY form of HD connector? i was really shocked when i went to set it up and realized i had to go and the component cable seperately (glad i didn't want the HDMI because that one's $80!). few other gripes: you have to install things? WHY? 360 doesnt have to and the graphics are comparable (some might even say 360 is better). also the cord to recharge the controller is like 2 ft long...who the hell plays 2 feet from the tv? (well i do in my dorm but otherwise i'm like 6 ft back). not to mention the hoops i had to jump through to play metal gear online: 1) sign up for psn 2) install MGO 3) register Konami ID AND game ID 4) click on link to activate account 5) play. and i skipped a couple of other parts like the initial installation of MGS4. even with the limited time i've spent with my PS3 i can safely say that i much prefer spending $50 a year to have a competent online service than a free piece of crap (there's hardly ANY content!). ok so you probably think i'm just a pissed off lemming ranting and raving (which isn't ENTIRELY untrue), but I'm still glad that i bought it and would make the same decision again. I don't think PS3 will overtake 360's place in my heart, but it will definitely bring me a lot of excitement with great exclusives like MGS, Resistance, and (hopefully) Killzone 2. (might even give LBP a try).

  My presidential debate prediction....

  As anyone who has seen an interview with Barack Obama can attest, he is pretty long-winded. I think that is going to be his downfall in these debates. He's a great orator when going off a teleprompter, but as soon as that's gone and he isn't reciting his usual "change" mumbo jumbo he begins to stutter and forgets the meaning of the words concise and succinct. If given an unlimited amount of time, Obama might be able to do well, however he isn't and as such he will likely get cut off and it's at the end of his long winded speeches that he presents the point. I'm predicting he will get cut off at least once and not get his point across as a result. And he's already at a disadvantage having so little actual foreign policy experience.
