WTF? I said its my opinion so get the F off my back awrite. What are you, you pick up a target and then try to act all smart over them. Jeez, don't make new members feel like they stepped on a landmine. I'll state what I want to say and compare. I wasn't blatantly claiming all that. I just said it's what it seems. Get a grip of yourself , I'm not here to pick a fight with you. My post wasn't an attack on you. Take it easy.
As you're a reasonably new member please allow me to point out just a few things of which you should probably take note.
Beyond3d is and has historically been a very active, predominantly accurate and careful forum for the discussion of technical information. The site prides itself on the accuracy of its information and the ability for (the vast majority of) its members to discuss the relative merits and dis-merits of hardware, software and other items with clarity, intellect and on the whole a (mostly) balanced view-point.
While it is perfectly obvious what you were trying to get at with regards to your responses to Acert, I will note that one of the key issues Beyond3d's forums is having to cope with more recently is the regular derailment of threads into far less intelligent and ultimately far less interesting diatribes on the counter-merits of specific consoles (it's the consoles forum that suffers most anyway) regardless of the original topic of conversation. It is for this reason that Acert (semi-justifiably, just not tempered by your lack of history in these forums) responded in the way he did, though he was again mostly correct in his ascertions once again.
Ultimately, this thread was and is about John Carmack's ascertion that, for him, the X360 is now a better development platform than the PC, to bring PS3 into that discussion (anywhere other than maybe "Could PS3 potentially be another viable alternative were a developer to move away from PC development?") and to suggest that Carmack's decision could be based on anything other than purely his desire to work in the best environment for his needs is to derail the thread and is certainly not desirable here.
Anyway, I hope that explains this thread and Acert's posts a little, please have a quick look through the stickies at the top of the forum for a bit more of an explanation of posting etiquette here and enjoy the forums.
