[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] Beat: Having no life such that you spend your free time drooling over a 1st gen system that you payed 800% markup on and will break in 6 months from inferior components. [/ QUOTE ] Is a PS3 really a first generation system? I don't know much about video games and such, but isn't it the third generation? [/ QUOTE ] You are correct. In the video game world the PS3, Wii and 360 are considered third generation. The poster was probably referring to a different kind of 'generations' (In the schools here they teach you about 'early adaptors' and I think he is trying to refer to this). [/ QUOTE ] Uh.. PS3, Wii, 360 are like 7th generation. 1st generation was PONG |

Beat: Moron on an internet message board who thinks I was actually going to keep the system and not resale it on ebay. [/ QUOTE ] Beat: Moron who thinks there will still be a worthwhile profit margin on these in a week even as the PS3s from the first shipment have fallen to $900. |

PS2, Xbox (,Dreamcast) and GameCube are second generation. 360, Wii and PS3 are third generation. PONG is like 1st gen minus 18. |

Honestly, there is no doubt in my mind that you just made this up. |
