Tell me though, what was your reasoning behind bringing up HDTV and 7.1? Are you seriously so consumed in the consumer hi-fi world that anything less than 7.1 is pure shit? Heaven forbid that anyone use 5.1! Or, *gasp!!* 2-channel STEREO!
Oh, by the way, I DID thank you several times (rather enthusiastically, too) for your media footage of the game.
Murray - Last I heard the NGCD release is supposed to come out 4th quarter 2006. It's been such a long wait that I think it might come out early 2007
I know you thanked me several times for the videos and Im very happy you enjoyed them, I just dont need to hear you bringing up my BOSE speakers anymore as it's an old topic and nobody cares to hear it anymore and you have nothing to compare it to anyways. Just drop it. The ONLY person here that I will take advice from on that issue is SMOKEHOUSE so please enough bickering about it.
Why do I not like 2.0 Stereo, lemme see... I had 2.0 when I was like 8 years old and it was good for TurboGrafX 16 games, I had 4.0 when I was 13 and it was great for Dolby Surround 3DO games and LDs, and then 5.1 for my Dolby Digital and DTS LaserDiscs when I was like 18, but now 7.1 is what I need and NO less as games on PS3 will have that and yes, 7.1 is all I like to hear now. Thats just me personally though if you like 2.0 great for you mate. Im happy you have such a wonderfull headset and I wish I owned one but personally I was done with 2.0 STEREO technology when I was 13, I personally needed to step up with technology as technology grew. As soon as something a bit better comes out I will be forced to upgrade once again. It has NOTHING to do with your Headset or your taste in audio, I personally am so used to surround sound that anything less than 7.1 sounds ... well not surround.
You seem to want to put me down for the stuff I buy yet your stuff is not even up to par with mine so why you can laugh at my stuff is beyond me. I just buy what I like. I cant help it if I dont like DVDs because of the compressed sound. I cant help it if I dont like 2.0 sound. After you get my age you'll be wanting differnt stuff as well instead of the same ol same ol. By then 14.4 will most likely be out (or something) and I highly doubt youll still wanna hear 2.0 or 5.1.
Im in the same boat as you man, I gotta save up money before I spend it and Im not uber rich so I am very proud that I have what I have and you are the same way. I dont see you boasting over 1.0 MONO sound because your done with that. I dont see you saying you love a $10 headset because you've stepped it up a notch (or in your case MANY notches). You are proud of your headset and I dont blame you I would be too. But try not to bash me for having what I have because
Im just like you man.
I barely scraped up enough money to get my Bose just to hear you bash it. Man I barely got Last Hope (had to pay my cousin back for months since hes the one who seems rich) and I get bashed for it because you all assume I have that kind of damn cash just sitting around, shit I wish.. It took me many months to buy my Monster Cables and I get bashed for it all the time need I go on? Im 29 what more do ya want of me, to go back into time so I can enjoy the 2.0 again? Sadly those days are over. Its 2006 now and I want 2006 equipment. You will do the same when your my age just like you did with your $400 headset. I honestly dont know what else to say about it. You paid a TON of money, more than anyone I know would, for your headset. Does that make you an instant asshole because you dont want a cheaper pair of headphones? I think not. You just want something nice, like I do. I got suckered into Bose like many EVEN SMOKEHOUSE DID! That doesnt mean its time to bash me or him or anyone that did. Instead you should be SORRY for us for buying into Bose LIES!
I'm not stuck up man, I've just moved along with the times. If the game/movie is made for 7.1 then for me no other will do. But I still watch old Black/White movies made in the 50's that dont even have speech and are MONO at best, and it sounds fine to me in mono as thats the way they were made. But if they were made better I would want to see and hear them better.
