I heard from a reliable source that 95% of people who have smoked pot are not addicted(dependent).

Re: Halo Reach the 360's flagship title owned by Resistance 2 a PS3 exclusive from 20

I could easily ask you the same thing.

lol, okay.



THEY ARE THE SAME DAMNED THING. You initially tried to deny the idea of a mental addiction by calling it a dependency and then I told you to go do some research on the matter and then you come back with "okay, well, if marijuana does cause mental addictions..."

I denied the idea that pot is mentally addictive. How many times do we have to go over this? I was quite clearly questioning you on the matter and "considering" your theory to further the argument and see more perspective on your opinion.



No it doesn't. It specifically says that mental addictions do not exist only dependencies. You did not acknowledge the idea of a mental addiction until I called you on your bullshit. Like I am doing again right now.

How many fucking times? I was referring to it in regards not a mental addiction to pot existing. I didn't acknowledge the idea of a fucking mental addiction to pot but I wanted to see your opinion on the subject(which is essential in a debate/argument) so I toyed with your theory of marijuana being mentally addictive.



Actually, you did make that argument.

And now it's once again my turn to bust out the knowledge card. Nation, I have an MA in Psychology. Dependancy and addiction are the exact same thing. Are you going to argue with me again on this?

Make more shit up. It's so painfully fucking obvious I was referring to a mental addiction to pot. Just face the fact that I was referring to fucking pot and I never said a mental addiction itself doesn't exist. My example of cigarettes being mentally addictive quite clearly shows that I know it DOES exist. For Christ's Sake, no shit a mental addiction exists. I'm sorry you feel the need to twist what was said in your favor or that you seriously think I was referring to a mental addiction itself not existing when it was in regards to pot I was referring too. As for the argument, perhaps

Back pedal, back pedal, back pedal.

How many times? I dunno. But if the big lie technique worked for a half wit like Joe McCarthy, I'm sure it'll work just fine for you too.

Also, how nice of you to add in your motivations how many months later? As I said, back pedaling.

My example of cigarettes being mentally addictive quite clearly shows that I know it DOES exist. For Christ's Sake, no shit a mental addiction exists.

Already addressed this. Just because you acknowledge it after you get told you were stupid doesn't apply it retroactively.

As for the argument, perhaps

Perhaps what? Perhaps you'll keep arguing with me despite the years of education I have on you? So does that mean we can now ignore your claims of "I know more about video games than you so stfu?"

Regardless of what Nation is going to say next, which I am sure will be more back pedaling on his part, I think it is fairly reasonable to say that even when confronted with his inaccuracies he will continue to argue rather than admit that he might be wrong. So for those of you who wish to continue this video game argument with him, by all means, go ahead. You should know though that you will likely get better, more constructive debate from a wall or a rock.

Poor Anthony, I'm sorry that I had greater knowledge on the subject and that I then proved you wrong about you making bullshit assumptions.

I heard from a reliable source that 95% of people who have smoked pot are not addicted(dependent).

Read the thread. Notice how dependent is in parenthesis? Do you see that? Read the thread and the argument and it everything will be quite clear actually. If you seriously need it explained for you, Monk and myself had an argument on whether or not pot is mentally addictive and if mental addiction is the same thing as dependency so I put addicted into the quote to show his views as well as to further the argument and dependent in parenthesis means what I was referring too. As in my view not his. Now if you were calling me out on my statistics, I have no idea where I got it from as this was fucking forever ago and I don't care or feel the need to back them up.

I also noticed that you read and ignored the piece I posted on marijuana addictions and withdrawl issues but decided not to comment. Why is that?

You didn't back them up in that thread either(which is essential in a debate/argument).

Back pedal, back pedal, back pedal.

Despite the frustration of debating with you due to you completely making shit up, you sure do have a nice sense of humor!



How many times? I dunno. But if the big lie technique worked for a half wit like Joe McCarthy, I'm sure it'll work just fine for you too.

Also, how nice of you to add in your motivations how many months later? As I said, back pedaling.

Don't be so butt hurt that you got proved wrong or you out right make the wrong assumption. In a argument you want to see your respective rivals' perspective on the selective subject with which you're arguing about. Do I really need to explain this? Just why the fuck should I have told you specifically my motivations at the time? That tells you nothing but my plan which I don't care if you later find out what it was but to assume it needs to be revealed is strange....I don't recall you revealing your motivations either anyways.



Already addressed this. Just because you acknowledge it after you get told you were stupid doesn't apply it retroactively.

I guess I have to tell you yet again then. I was referring to a mental addiction to pot existing for the last fucking time. I never said a mental addicition itself doesn't exist. I said it doesn't in regards to an addiction to weed. If you seriously thought somehow I was suggesting it doesn't exist itself, I wasn't. I thought it was quite clear, I'm sorry I haven't cleared this up until now. Better late then never though.



Perhaps what? Perhaps you'll keep arguing with me despite the years of education I have on you? So does that mean we can now ignore your claims of "I know more about video games than you so stfu?"

So we have multiple theories here. Either you're out right making shit up, you aren't too smart to realize what I meant when it was obvious, you legitimately thought I believed a mental addiction itself doesn't exist(which if be, yes I do know it does as I said before better late than never!), our you want activity for the forum you're now administrating again so you deviously fueled an argument between us to bring potential interest and activity knowing you could make this last for quite awhile and maybe just maybe you actually like arguing with me. In which case, it worked. Congratulations. I'm sure in the future we will further arguments, don't worry. As for my claims, different subject despite it being in this thread lol. Obviously it's gone far off topic.

Forgive for providing another essential part of the debate. I'm confident now this is what you have called me out on, in which case I admit like I said I have no fucking idea where I found them. It could have been a misinformed statistic I'll admit or at the time I couldn't recall where I found it and I certainly can't recall now nor do I care to find out. Should I have backed it up? Yes, I admit. I won't deny that. Like I said though, it could have been either option. Perhaps I forget to back it up with being so engaged in the subject and debating so many points and opinions or it was bullshit and it wasn't actually the most reliable source or either of the options I mentioned. You got me. I won't deny I shouldn't have backed up those statistics but one of those options was the reason I didn't.

I'll take my victory lap now.

Re: Halo Reach the 360's flagship title owned by Resistance 2 a PS3 exclusive from 20

lol I'll pretend I didn't hear that. The PS2 played DVD's right out of the box but for XBOX you had to buy a plug in device. XBOX only had Halo and Fable for games. The PS2 had too many games. Technically the XBOX is capable of better graphics yet God of War 2 looks just as good as Halo 2. Some multi-platform games looked slightly better on XBOX and a few games out right performed better like Splinter Cell but they never really utilized the power of the console. Really it was just sweet that the XBOX could hold music onto the console. It couldn't even play DVD's without some plug in device so the PS2 reaped all of the benefits of DVD. It was a major fail. To sell a little as 24 million when the PS2 out sold it by over a hundred million units and hardly take any fucking market share back at the time, is a major fail and to see every console this generation all easily past it with years more on their lifespans is a major fail. Not to mention it lost the company over 4 billion dollars. They lost a billion dealing with the RROD and they have lost money on selling the XBOX 360 itself. I believe it's profitable now but for awhile just like the PS3 it was loosing money on each console sold. Much worse then loosing 3 billion for Sony which obviously does suck but now it's making profit and money that was lost when the PS3 wasn't making profit was gained through published games, hardware add on devices, and the PS2 and PSP selling and making money. Corporations go through their hard times all the time. Sony has bounced back tremendously. As for loosing hundreds of billions of dollars, lol no you're quite confused. Big difference from 3 million and hundreds of millions of dollars lol.
I had both PS2 and Xbox, my Xbox could read DVD without plugging anything. Not sure what are you talking about.

I have no idea what SD vs. RAW game you played on the PS2 but ever since SD vs. RAW 2007, the graphics on the PS2 for SD vs. RAW have looked much better then the XBOX WWE games. I'm no graphics whore but graphics is a big category and the PS3 has it won along with power. While they don't actually make games better than others, it does help quite a bit. Now God of War 3 is just plain better in every way then Dante's Inferno but comparing the same style of games, graphics is a big deal for this kind of thing. No one unless they only have a 360 is going to prefer Dante's Inferno an average looking multi-platform game to God of War 3 the best looking game this generation currently. So no graphics don't actually make games better but they certainly do help. Say Infamous vs. Crackdown 2 or Halo Reach vs. Killzone 2 or Resistance 2, the respective PS3 exclusives look better and that's a big advantage.

Wrestlemania 21 was in 2005, whatever SD vs Raw was around at the time. Definitely not SD vs Raw 2007, you may want to check out years when doing comparisons.


Side note for everybody: keep random unnecessary insults out of the thread. (Monk I'm looking at you and the homosexual post, but I didn't read the whole thread, so everyone else who did similar things is included).

Nation, not trying to rattle your cage but what exactly qualifies you to be more of an expert on video games? Its as completely subjective as wrestling opinion...so really your opinion is as important as anyones. Don't try and flatter yourself because you spend hours upon hours gaming. If you got paid for your opinions then there is actual worth there.

You had to buy a separate remote for the xbox to play DVDs where as with the PS2 you could just use your controller.

Well, not to play them but to navigate the menus.

You already know my opinion on the subject. I'll take a look at it eventually but I'm not sure if I'll debate it or not. Definitely not now, I don't have time.

And one final back pedal as this clearly didn't matter up until this point.

I'll take my victory lap now.

Live in your delusional world where you're always right. Go ahead take your victory despite the fact that I didn't suggest mental addictions itself doesn't exist and I obviously know they do. Not like you need the ego boost but since you want it so bad, you win. Just sure next time not to get so personally offended, please. But you have your victory so by all means go ahead and celebrate.

I had both PS2 and Xbox, my Xbox could read DVD without plugging anything. Not sure what are you talking about.

Launch models only required this? If so I actually wasn't aware of this. I had a launch model and my step father has won as well. For them you need to buy a plug in device that goes into a controller port.

Yh, forgot about this. You can't navigate it with the controller which isn't a major issue but it does suck and it's an advantage the PS2 has over it and like I said the PS2 reaped from the benefits of DVD.
