    Angry 10 reasons to hate gaming (a massive console failcake)

    As much as we love games and the systems we play them on, the fact remains that no console (or PC) is perfect. In fact, every last one of them has a wealth of glaring flaws that deserve to be dragged out into the light and enthusiastically yelled at.





    10 Reasons to Hate:
    • Xbox 360
    • PlayStation 3
    • Wii
    • PC
    • DS
    • PSP

    For the PSP um dude firmware updates whats wrong with that if you want to stay in touch with the games without updating just get cfw simple and teh PSP reasons are hardly nothing much to be sad about all those otehr stufff like remote play and sdtv w/e its hardly that bad thought it may not be very good or has some issues thats besides the point that the psp is actually a very good console don't hate appreciate.

    a new ds every 2 years? I only know of 2 ds' out.
    In fact, every last one of them has a wealth of glaring flaws that deserve to be dragged out into the light and enthusiastically yelled at.
    he can't possibly say some of those things are flaws of the console, more like things that makeusing/owning one a crappy experience.
    Definition: Flaw - an imperfection in a device or machine
    eg. mmorpgs taking over isn't a flaw of the pc.

    true he got some stuff spot on but that can only make me hate the console not my gaming experience.

    how much more cake can we eat lol
