I just bought a PS3, and twenty-five games I've wanted to play.
I would also like to blame Intel and AMD for releasing bullcrap chips the last two years, and the graphics card manufacturers for sitting on their lazy butts and not offering anything "new".
Seriously, my "dream" PC of two years ago is only outperformed 19% by the latest and greatest hardware... WTF computer hardware industry... WTF?
$1100 spent in 2009 requires a 2011 investment of $2300 for a 19% performance increase... seriously...
Anyway, PS3 is shiny... its new... and yeah, I can blame CCP for all the fun I am going to have to SUFFER through for the next year until Dust514 hits the shelf.
Oh well, maybe next year there will be a computer worth buying for EVE when the "SPACESHIP" expansion hits =)

I'm saddened to see that you are putting disclaimers mentioning that your post are sarcastic. Are people really having that much trouble seeing the obvious?

I'll be investing on a PS3 now meself... Just gonna wait until Dust is nearer to release date since it's the only reason I'll be shelling for it anyway. Well, the Blu-Ray feature isn't bad either.

That's the truth of the matter. From 1995 to say 2005, the GHZ war was alive and well. Then the 4GHz wall was confronted and everything slowed down. (AMD also stoped competting letting Intel take the lead.) To make up for this, multiple cores were introduced. But I agree, chip progress has slowed considerably. Last I heard, graphics chips are to be integrated to main CPUs now...or sometime in the future.
I remember way back when I had to buy and plug in a seperate math co-proccessor for my Intel 386 16MHz.
That's MHz kids, not GHz.
Yes..Im that old.

And then he found out about the coming HD remastered old God of War titles, voiding his purchase of the old versions.

I have a ps3, still won't get dust because I hate playing shooters with a controller, and no you can't use the keyboard and mouse with any of the ps3 games last I checked.

I still remember my old 8MHz x286 with some fondness, and also how excited I was upon upgrading to a 100MHz 80486. Next system was a 200MHz Pentium Pro, with an S3 ViRGE graphics card. ------- Never argue with an idiot. They'll drag you down to their level, then beat you with experience. |

so anyway i could be mad for ccp for spending money on things i dont want but then i would have to be mad at most of the world

I used to feel the same way but a whole lotta matches killing Zombies in Call off Duty tought me that its quite easy to learn. If you stick to it!
That being said, I do think playing with mouse and keyboard is faster. ------------------------------------------------- A friend of death, a brother of luck and a son of a *****

M8 you are getting completely ****ed if you're paying that much for computer upgrades. I spent about $300 to update my circa 2006 computer to 2011 standards. You're doing it wrong.

Yea? Go stick your PS3 up your ass.
A special message for all the cute little trolls: Yes, I am mad bro. Also, I am aware that my tears sustain you. I am glad that I could be of service on both of those important issues for you.
