You my friend are the one in need of historical education

having INVENTED guns yes it does...

Too bad the chinese did that first way before anyone else.

well actually the chinese didn't use gunpowder in guns. the europeans stole gunpowder and decided it was useful for killing

I can just imagine a scene for Rome:total war. Three way battle: Greece vs. Rome vs. Nomads. Except instead of soldiers its fanboys with controllers.

They are more advanced and know how to manufacture and use guns, so I think they're more intelligent, even if it is to copy an invention.

If they were just more advanced, it doesn't matter, it still applies to what I intended in the post.

I can imagine that. It would be comically epic.

nintendo is like the persians, the first great empire, without it greece and rome would not have existedMad_Rhetoric

1. The first "great" empire was the Akkadian empire...followed by the Egyptians, Hittites, Assyria, Babylonia and Persia.

2. The Greek civilizations were in existance hundreds of years before the emergence of the Persian empire.

3. Please dont contribute to bad analogies unless your history is correct.

Wow do you anything about history, what is it with people and guns, is that the only invention ever? And no, the Spanish were not more intelligent, the Aztecs themselves were a highly advanced Civilization themselves in many areas the Europeans aren.

Very sad indeed :lol:

[QUOTE="Marth6781"]No he didnt just diss Nomads!ReturnOfShinobi

Wow you guys really dont know anything do you? Different Civilizations have been known for different things, just because you 'invented' guns doesnt mean youre the most intelligent and everyone else is stupid. In fact fire arms were in circulation well before in many parts of Europe, and the funniest thing is that gun powder was developed in China and the Middle East almost a thousand years earlier, there are canons there that date back to the 1100s, if not even earlier.

And BTW, if you think we are so immune to superstitions, then trust me, youd be surprised...

think of it with this analogy: a big bad company monopolizes something. this is a very good move (for them). what can the other companies do about it? not a lot. in this case big bad company = europe with guns. and some european country has had some massive empire during the course of history.

[QUOTE="iamthetruth55"]

The Greeks were slow to rise after Romein.

lol Hitler and Einstein were from different time periods"

somehow goes with teh thread.

If the Xbox 360 is Rome, PS3 the Greeks, and the Wii the Nomads...I guess that makes PC the wrath of god. :DVoodooGamer

Im sorry, ive proven my point, but the truth is you know NOTHING about the Aztecs to simply pass them off. Aztecs had their place in history, as did every other race and civilization, and trust me, Europe has only had a VERY short time of the 12000 years or so Man has been in advanced civilization.

[QUOTE="ReturnOfShinobi"][QUOTE="Marth6781"]No he didnt just diss Nomads!Truth-slayer

But yeah, youre spot on

You guys don't know your history! Rome fell before of it's lack of intelligeance (no 08 exlcusive AAA's for 360). Also the Greeks were much smarter than the Romans because they educated everyone in their cities starting the first libraries (Cell)!iamthetruth55

GeOW2 will not be AAA?

The xbox 360 has it'd SHORT lived run but it is not going to fall under it's own "power" (or should i suggest power of the cell) and before a major failure due to fualty hardware, expensive online, weird controllers, P2P online, horrible games for 08, and their over confidence is going to bring down the Lemmings! Now the PS3 is much like the Greeks. Smart, intelligeant, and dominant for LONG period of time (10 year life span anyone???!!). The Greeks were slow to rise after Rome, but now is the time that the PS3 and cell take a commanding lead with FREE online, GREAT controllers, DEDICATED servers, and GREAT exclusive 08 lineup. The Wii is like the nomads. Weak, innovative given what they have, which is not much. And they just migrate from one system to the next staying loyal to their mario party 14, and paper mario 9, and the same series played over and over again.

FULL OF FAIL! :| Greece came first, then it was weakened due to the Peloponessian(sp) War in which, later on, Alexander the Great (who led the Macedonians) took over, and finally, the Romans, which were heavily influenced by the Greeks. Of course, there was the Ottomans who took over Greece until Greece revolted, then declared, fought, and won independence.

Also, due to the increase of territory of the Roman Empire, lacking patriotism, declining leadership (after the five good emperors), and nomads, the Roman Empire fell. So, in reality, the nomads conquered a "conquered" nation. More specifically, during the declining period, the Roman Empire split into two: Western Roman Empire and Eastern Roman Empire.

The Western Roman Empire fell to the nomads, thus creating the dark ages and the midieval period (Franks, Germans, etc), and the Eastern Roman Empire (or Byzantine Empire) flourished until it was sacked by the Crusaders during the 4th crusade (long fued and political and economic rivarly) causing it to be weakend, until its ultimate demise in 1453, at the hands of the Ottoman Empire. Constantinople, which was the capital of the Byzantine Empire is now Istanbul.

You know I thought that you actually had an interesting metaphor going on about the various likenesses of those civilisations and how they compare but obviously I was wrong. You are just a boring old PS3 troll and I'm not going to get into a tit-for-tat argument over it.

P.S Greeks existed long before Romans (like 6000 years) and nomads have always existed.

Greeks: Incredibly intelligent race, flourished under well established democratic systems and education, but soon destroyed by their own recklessness and arrogance when attacking other races (definitely related to the progression of PS)

Romans: Extremely brutal, powerful and genius tacticians. Had unfathomably strong military forces but were also destroyed by political strife and self implosion, short lifespan compared to the Greeks, but conquered the known world in their time (Something the Greeks failed to accomplish)

Nomads: Innovative and hardy, weathering extremely tough conditions and surviving, but innovating incredibly. Never had much input in the evolution of modern society, but contributed to the overall genetic makeup and occasionally surpassing both the Greeks and Romans in terms of lifestyle acllimations.

So there, fanboy.

you wait untill now to edit you're title?

EPIC FAIL!

You people are being much too picky...my point is PS3 is superior to xbox and especially Wiiiamthetruth55

WRONG

native americans lost, WIi is #1. fail

Saying Xbox 360, an american console, comapred to Iraq? Have u been following the Iraq war lately? fail.

The PS3 is very much like the UNITED STATES with all it's power and history and just the name brand. United States is by far the best and the most powerful similar to the PS3. The US has been in some tough wars but as ALWAYS come out on top, similar to the PS3. Right now xbox 360 is like Iraq. Losing the battle on all fronts, bring taken over by the US (PS3). Iraq was in decent shape not too long ago but always has it's break downs (xbox 360 RROD). Now the Wii is like Native Americans. The Wii is very creative like Natives, but fails when it comes to technology and it is rather kiddy (mysticism and voodoo are childish but the Natives continue to beleive). The Nintendo brand has been around for a very long time but has done almost nothign to innovate (Mario party 13? Paper mario 9?).

Can you even conceive how patronizing it is to say the Wii is creative, like Natives is?

Seriously man you are lucky I'm not a reporting kind of guy because that may be one of the most offensive things I've ever seen here.

What else can they do well? Sew you blankets and sell you smokes?

Every edit you make, makes you dig yourself into that much more fail.

Give up. :|
