GASHWOUND Posted July 10, 2003 Share Posted July 10, 2003 Well, it will be about 5 years or so the PS2 has been out in 05 and with technology advancing each year they gotta keep up... Don't know what it will do, faster CPU and all that s***... And hopefully a better DVD player. My PS2 is on its last limbs, so this new system couldn't come at a better time. I'm guessing this will be the last Madden on the system. They say that the PS2 is just experimenting with the online thing and that PS3 online is going to be unbelievable. I have no idea what they can do other then better graphics, better DVD player, better internet, better CPU, etc. well its a pain in the ass when those new things come out.. cause you know the kids bug the hell out of me till i buy them one.......so far in the closet we have a nintendo, a super nintendo, a regular playstation, some cube thing...they are currently playing the ps2 thing... a few game boys, and some other game boy like thing...cause they play the whatever it is thats better than the game boy thing... hell i cant keep up... i remeber back when pong kept us busy and entertained for hours at a time.. hell it was just two sticks hitting a ball back and forth on the tv screene...... i am begining to hate this modern technology s***..... Ha, that's nothing...I got stashed away in the ole closet...My Atari 2600, my NES system, my Sega Genises, Super NES, PS, Sega Dreamcast, and currently my PS2... Along with my GameBoy and GameBoy Color...Not really into handheld systems Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted July 10, 2003 Share Posted July 10, 2003 Well Gash, all of those specs went right over my head. Only part I could understand is 48th fastest computer in the world (By Todays Standards). That part sounded pretty cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll be buying them games and systems until you finally decide that you won't pay for them anymore. If they aren't yet, they will become more interested in girls then games.

As long as they aren't playing them every minute then you should be cool. I think I was one of the first generations to grow up with video games and computers, but the big thing I notice is the younger generations aren't like my generation was. With us or at least my buddies we had video games and stuff but we'd do it when none of our buddies were around. Otherwise we would always be outside having water fights, playing baseball or soccer or some other sport or trying to build forts and crap. Now a days kids are like nah, I don't want to do that, I'd rather play football on a video game then in real life. I think its one of the biggest reason more and more people are an unhealthy weight. I don't buy into this, "Its McDonalds Fault" crap. No one said you had to eat it. I also don't really buy into the Tobacco companies getting sued for all this stuff. Only reason they would be sued is for those that were addicted at the point where the cigarette company knew it killed people but never told anyone. The people that start it now and know all the consequences, well its their fault if they die of lung cancer not the tobacco companies. They should also be sued for attempts at getting children to smoke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't tossed any of my systems...There's something about a boy and his video game systems...I feel very nostalgic about the Atari's and NES, so I still have them and they still work..sometimes I play them..haven't ina while though Well, the older you get the less you play with them..that simple...12, 13, 14 you play the games 3, 4 or 5 hours a day or whatver...16, 17, 18, you play them an hour or two a day(or whatever) I'm 23 and play my PS2 around 2 times a week(MAYBE 3)..late at night usually....right now i would probably be playing AllStarBaseball 2004..but don't feel like it.. I just use my PS2 mainly for DVDs... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted July 10, 2003 Share Posted July 10, 2003 Ya I probably play twice a week or so, depending on how much time I have. Usually I just use it to watch my family guy dvd or any other dvd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether it was bikes or rollerblades in the summer that was my only mode of transportation and it worked just fine. Now that I drive I never even think about riding a bike, but it probably wouldn't be a bad thing. More exercise is never a bad thing.

GASHWOUND Posted July 10, 2003 Share Posted July 10, 2003 Also, technology has advances so much with the INTERNET and all this s*** that all their entertainment and fun is indoors...When I was 11, 12, 13, 14..we had NES and Sega..no computers and s***...We had to go outside and play..what the hell were we gonna do inside? When we got home from school...I would eat...then off I went outside to play..till about 7 at night then come inside and we would play the NES and Sega... and if the weather was bad(snow, rain) then we would play the NES and Sega most of the day... or like you said..if no one was around we would play the Vgames... No one goes out to f***in play anymore!!!I ate f***in McDonald's all the time when i was a kid and was fit as hell..that's because you would burn all of those calories the next day..Sheesh, like you said..no wonder everybody's a fat pig!!!

Spiff Posted July 10, 2003 Share Posted July 10, 2003 it's not all video games. some parents won't let kids have any fun anymore. they are so freaked out about child abductions they won't let them out of their sight, they won't let them play with toy guns, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cali Posted July 10, 2003 Share Posted July 10, 2003 On a side note for you people, Chappelle's Show has been picked up for a second season, 12 episodes, including a hour long special. It's set to debut in the first quarter of '04 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Showtime Posted July 10, 2003 Share Posted July 10, 2003 "NFL Street is seven-on-seven street ball showcasing the showoff skills and showboat style of the NFL elite. No helmets, no pads, but all the attitude you'd expect from the game's greats like Ray Lewis, Terrell Owens, Michael Vick, and Marshall Faulk. You can lateral at any time during gameplay, even lateral the ball forward if you want. Holly Roller fumbles are legal, and the playbook is comprised of just as many Hook 'N Ladder passes as it is Post plays." Ugh. You know, these games get so boring it's not even funny. The whole concept of these no rules type football games, came from people wanting to do late hits in a game like Madden. That was fun because it wasn't part of the actual game. So when you we're actually able to hit someone after a play it meant something. Oh, I can hit someone after every play, big deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Showtime Posted July 10, 2003 Share Posted July 10, 2003 I wonder how much that PS3 gonna put me back...prob $300 I say.. No s***. I payed $299 for PS1 and $350 or something of the kind for PS2. Good thing I didn't buy X-BOX. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh jesus, you sound like an old man. "Back in my day..." With us or at least my buddies we had video games and stuff but we'd do it when none of our buddies were around. Otherwise we would always be outside having water fights, playing baseball or soccer or some other sport or trying to build forts and crap. Didn't have any buddies growing up, so it was video games for me. Now a days kids are like nah, I don't want to do that, I'd rather play football on a video game then in real life. I think its one of the biggest reason more and more people are an unhealthy weight. No, it's because people eat all the f***ing time. I don't play any sports or do any other activities that require much effort, and I'm skinny. I don't buy into this, "Its McDonalds Fault" crap. No one said you had to eat it. I also don't really buy into the Tobacco companies getting sued for all this stuff. Only reason they would be sued is for those that were addicted at the point where the cigarette company knew it killed people but never told anyone. haha. I love how the thread went from video games, to Jason ranting on the children of america. As far as smoking goes, people smoke because they want to, not because the marbolo man makes it look cool.
