I'm tired of Sony's bull$#@! - Maddox

[zevende]

Maddox is racist toward 360. When the Wii comes out, and the effect of using a cute little new type of controller wears off, people are going to realize that the Wii isn't that great. The 360 deserves more respect for how great it is.

Do I seriously have to say it again?!

Maddox hates everything. When the Wii comes out he will hate that too.

Who really cares that he hates everything. I don't. He who hates everything, enjoys nothing. Have a good life, or rather, lack thereof, Maddox.

It's just slightly annoying, when people keep complaining about Maddox talking $#@! about something they enjoy.

Ahh, Maddox. I personally wouldn't give his words the time of day, but that's just because he really gets enough attention as it is.

Of course, he thrives on it all, look at his post where he compares himself to big food chains (which of course a horribly irrelevant comparison) and claims that he gathers a lot of respect. I doubt many he is much respected as is given attention. For the people who admire him, it's probably as a scapegoat. Either because he says some of the things that they'd like to say but don't want to take the social responsibility for the backlash (which is why it's so much easier to say them online), or because he makes them all look like better people.

Of course everything he says is a comedy act which I guess a lot of people find funny, and maybe they respect his sheer ability to argue. By that I mean his ability to exaggerate and misemphasize to manipulate anything into making him look right. If you look at what he's actually saying it's not difficult to find flaws, but the driving force of his confidence and experience makes him just about impervious to an argument of more generically presented common sense.

That's just a mild analysis though, for those who haven't read further into what he says. There really isn't any point complaining about him (especially not when he deeply enjoys any opportunity to belittle opposition). All in all he's just some jackass whom a lot of people enjoy watching as some kind of public spectacle. He might garner attention and even admiration in his "poetic" skills but I doubt anyone really takes his opinions to heart.

That doesnt make the guy any cooler / less cooler than before. IMO, he is an attention seeking jackass with nothing better to do than bitch about anything that comes his way. Some things may be correct and some opinions are the opinions we all share... but I would have given it the time of day if he wouldn't act like a spoilt little brat about any console / developers / game that have the slightest sniff of controversy.
My opinion - spoilt little brat .

Maddox is the $#@!, ive been reading his pages since about 1998 I think, the stuff he comes out with is funny, even stuff that might rub you the wrong way is funny. I bought the 'Alaphabet of manlyness' when I was in the states last, it just takes him to a whole new level, he's worked hard to get to where he's at.

And you know its all true, Sony is utter bollox, I gave up hope & finally bought my 1st 360 a few weeks back for Dead rising & Oblivion, and now GTA IV's coming out for 360 at the same time, i doubt i'll buy a PS3 until they're cheap as chips.

I have however stoppped playing only homebrew on my psp for an actual UMD game at the minute, I managed to pick up GTA VCS on play last week for only £20, but thats because I know a greater share of that will go towards Rockstar, not sony.

I do feel like buying a ds and selling my psp...

Maddox's point is that he can make a website and post whatever he wants on it. no is forcing you to read his work (except when we post something related of his on our forums). Anyway Maddox as a person is not really the topic of this discussion, his article is.
