That wasn't a quote of the MS executive. Just assumption by the editor. Also, OLD.

PS3 is like a Saturn. Although there's technically a possibility it could be more powerful, it'd be difficult to utilize the hardware that way.

Read the "might" part. Not his words. And even with that said, what did cows ay about Xbox last gen? Yeah, I thought so. Less games, last place, etc. Sounds quite similar.

so you're saying the problem is people who take this too seriously, yet knowing this you purposely spiked the very same people you're talking about. When it comes down to it, you're just as bad

Not to me it doesn't matter, then again I'm not the one who didn't read the article correctly then try to start a flame war. So basically I could report you for trolling, cool.

Either he didn't read the article and looked daft and is trying to cover it up by laughing at other people, or even worse, he was trolling and trying to antagonise people, either way its probably best if he didn't continue to post in the thread.

You're right, I didn't read the article. You see, if I cared I would've done so, but I just read what the OP said and take it as the quote he was talking about. In any case the trolling would've come from his part, not mine.

And why don't you just stop posting here instead?? I said lemmings after all, you feel insulted for that maybe there's a reason behind that ;)

See how I laugh??? :lol:

That's all you needed to say.

So, basically what you're saying is, you're trying to bash Xbox 360 fans based on an assumption and misinformation on the part of both yourself and the topic creator. Good job. :)

Trying to bash?? excuse me... I missed the part where I said/implied the 360 sux.

People likes to think everything is hate in the World and they probably deserve it, seeing all these reactions. If you ever see one post of mine, you'll see I try to stay as un-biased as possible between the Ps3 and the 360.

So yeah, I'm a huge cow ;)

I didn't say anything about hate nor anything about you being a "cow". I merely made a comment based on what I had seen which was exactly what I said, a post based on a false assumption and misinformation.

What the MS Exec actually said:

"First, I would say we absolutely would not want to trade places with Sony," Greenberg said. "We feel like being half the price of the PS3 served us quite well this holiday. The fact that we're doing this at half the price of their platform, we feel confident that we're delivering great value. I believe that we deliver more value for games and entertainment than any other platform on the market. At the end of the day, consumers vote with their dollar, I don't think people take comparison grids into retail stores. I would rather talk about why you should buy our console than why you shouldn't buy the competitor's system," the Microsoft executive concluded.

Microsoft

I donno how the article writer managed to get "more powerful" out of that, but oh well.

The facts speak for themselves;the 360 has outperformed the PS3 graphically since it launched.

Again, Greenberg did not say that at all. The article's author said that, and its being attributed to Greenberg incorrectly.
