What's even dumber is people who bought a launch PS3 and Xbox 360, the RROD and the shortage of games on the PS3 made everyone who paid up to $500+ can't even play games on both sides! Thank god I have a Wii.
What is with the hat? Seriously. I bet he has one pant leg pulled up to the knee and his underwear hanging out. It isn't style, it is sheer stupidity. The clown is a retard.
As Tom said, popularity is the pocket change of history but this scrawny moron couldn't rub two nickels together. People applauding this imbecile are themselves in allegiance to the ignorant.
Anyone that still goes around saying the PS3 has no good games like Soulja Boy clearly has no idea what they are talking about or is just a Xbox fan. Uncharted Drakes Fortune, Heavenly Sword, Rachet and Clank Future Tools of Destruction, GT5P, Warhawk, Resistance and Motorstorm are all great games as well.
Metal Gear Solid 4 was the highest rated PS3 exclusive and it was the first PS3 game with TONS of hype, but just because games like Uncharted or Resistance didn't have tons of hype like MGS4 did and didn't get 10/10's and high 9/10's across the board it doesn't mean that they aren't worthy games because they are.
According to a lot of Xbox fans it's like if a game doesn't score 90% or higher on Metacritic then it doesn't qualify as a game that's really worth playing on the PS3 or it's not a game on the PS3 that is worthy of a AAA status and that's just bull because Heavenly Sword and Uncharted are AAA games to me because the production value and detail in those games are just off the charts.
Soulja is just having fun. Why are you guys taking it so personal. It's just like when you're playing ball, guys on the court are always talking smack. And if they can back it up, then cool you can talk until I beat you.
But once I do get you, it's my turn to talk. As far as him saying the PS3 suck, that's simply his opinion. Most of us know that that's not true and that he's just talking. It really don't take much to get under you guy's skin does it?
I just like to comment on the news/story's around here cause im into games and I like the site. When I see something ridiculous I just call it how I see it though.
Soulja Boy has the stereotypical short sightedness of a rapper so of course he thinks 360 is better. He doesn't see the potential of PS3. And he doesn't need to because he has so much money and can careless about potential. When PS3 becomes the better system watch Soulja Boy play that more starting in 2009. I mean seriously what games is he going to play in 2009 for 360 COD6 and Madden 2010?
I kind of agree with you. I mean, it is simply his opinion on the PS3... but I think that more people could show a little 'courtesy' I suppose you could say. I enjoy both consoles myself, and while I understand not everyone will share in my point of view, I think you can choose your words more carefully than Soulja Boy has. Of course there's no law that says you must show respect to a console or that console's gamers... but I feel like less of those fans would be up in arms if only people would word things differently.
In Soulja Boy's case he admits he really liked the PS2 (at least that's what I think he said... slang confuses me) but he feels the PS3 sucks and that it only has one good game. He could have just as easily said something like, "PS3? Nah, I'm just not feelin' it. PS2 was hot, but they ain't got nothin' that really interests me y'know. Metal Gear Solid 4's good... but that's about all I like." Granted SOME people would still go off on him because many just don't like it when you don't share their opinion... but I think many more wouldn't be here calling him names and such. I say you shouldn't let folks like this bother you too much but I can sort of understand the fans since he does make himself sound ignorant with his statements.
Though I myself don't really see why these videos get approved. I know it's not just 'news' here, despite the name of the website but... I dunno I suppose I just don't see why he should get attention just for being a rapper ( or hiphop artist or whatever genre his music falls under - forgive my lack of knowledge) who happens to game. Ah well, in goes how it goes.
he has 139,000 subscribers on youtube his last video on youtube got over 200,000 views his youtube channel has almost 9 million views his most viewed video on youtube has over 39 million views
he has a broad influence and many fans, and many viewers hearing what he has to say.
We care because whenever he says something stupid (every time he opens his mouth) he makes everyone dumber for having heard him.
pretty soon society as we know it will devolve into having conversations, spouting nonsense and idiocy, barely coherent phrases will become the acceptable norm, and "yah!" will be screamed for agreement and disagreement. Independant thought will be crushed by a swarm of blockheads that laugh and nod in agreement to the one making the least amount of sense. All music will become 3 words repeated over and over, and dancing will become spazzing like an epileptic at a night club.
Honestly, is that what you want the world to become?
This guy wants to be in center of attention no matter how huge idiot he makes from himself. Pseudo internet star feels like being popular or something and what's the worst thing that may happen to him? Yeah, that's right. You hate him, ignore him. Unsubscribe, don't click on links with his articles, movies, just don't pay attention to him and you'll see him desperate and/or crying soon.
Great response, and I agree with you 100%. He could have used a more diplomatic approach to what he said. But for me rather than stooping to an even lower level than he did (As a lot of people did.) I would just chalk it up to him be an ignorant little man who likes the XBOX 360 and doesn't know much about the PS3. (Although he owns one.)I would not really lend too many brain cells to the process as it's really not worth it. One thing I can say for a fact is (And this is the ironic part of the process) had he made the exact same comment about the 360 and loved the PS3 the exact same people that called him stupid and sucky, etc. would be singing his praise and downloading his latest hit off of itunes. Funny but true. Nice comment Tacki bubbles up to you!
@Cryos - Dude, I don't know if your comment was a poor attempt at humor or if you were serious, but obviously unlike yourself I give the general public a little more credit than to hear some minimally educated rapper spew out a bunch of nonsense and then become totally hypnotize to the point of speaking the way he does and thinking like he does. Perhaps you fear this for yourself, and if that's the case perhaps you should stop reading comments on N4G as I have heard even more ignorant stuff here and at a much higher frequency.
Bottom, this dude has an opinion just as the rest of us do, and if you don't agree with it, then move on and save a few brain cells.
Soulja Boy isn't even a good rapper. He isn't even a DECENT rapper.
Soulja Boy is mediocre at BEST. I love rap. But this guy is a fvkin CLOWN. He's sorry. He's garbage. And it is what he does for a living...
So when this dude speaks, why does anybody even bother to listen?
ESPECIALLY when he's speakin about videogames????
If this guy really IS as good at playing video games as he claims he is, why doesn't he do us all a favor and change from a rapper to a professional gamer?
Please. I beg of you Soulja Boy. Drop the mic. Just quit. Play videogames for a living if that's what it takes for you to just SHUT THE FVCK UP.
@Ateanboy - so basically what you're saying is that he's a twat. Yeah I agree, I hate his crap music, and what's worse is that he is representing Xbox owners in general, giving all of us a bad name.

Both consoles have the same amount of good exclusives as of now. MGS4 and Ratchet are the only good PS3 exclusives. Gears of War and Mass Effect are the only good Xbox 360 exclusives.
I could go into all the mediocre exclusives for each platform but I won't.
This holiday season the PS3 is getting Little Big Planet. This holiday season the Xbox 360 is getting Gears of War 2, Fable 2, and Left 4 Dead.
Now with that said, MGS4 = 5 GOOD exclusives. Same with Ratchet. This gen has become more about quantity, I own an Xbox 360 and I got baited into thinking there'd be a lot of GOOD xbox exclusive games.
First off: I'm glad you give society credit. This is the same society that makes American Idol a hit TV show year after year. Secondly: Yes, I'm kidding. And if you don't understand that, you need a lesson in humour. Do yourself a favor and watch some standup. Here's some good ones: Bill Cosby George Carlin Carlos Mencia Bill Burr Chris Rock Katt Williams and the Blue Collar Comedy Tour
i am not black but i understand every single word he said . also english isn't my native language. i hate soulja boy but i am not going to make fun of his accent
of an "accent", he doesn't have one, it's a poor ability to pronounce and use the English language. It's also not a race thing, plenty of whites try to talk like that, or DO talk like that, and it comes off as being ignorant, it's got nothing to do with race. I understood nearly all of what he was trying to say, but it's pathetic. People like him are what cause the apparent cultural devolvement of the English language, and he makes himself look stupid, no matter what his real IQ might be. Most of us joking about him talking no what he's saying, it's sarcasm.
Xbox is so much better than Ps3. Nobody even plays ps3, why call of duty doesn't even make betas for it xD. 360 got so many more games coming out like Fable 2, Left 4 Dead, Gears of War 2, Halo Recon, Halo wars, Tales of Vesperia, Braid, Age of Conan, Huxley, Alan Wake, The last Remnant, Ninja blade, Viva Pinata trouble in paradise, Warhound, and we get half the games like rock band 2, alone in the dark, etc. so much earlier before the ps3. Live owns PSN which can't even support games and the ps3 has what littlebigplanet which looks gay as hell. Resistance to which is a sequal to a AA game and killzone 2 a sequal to game that flopped hard on the ps1? MGS4 was awesome but its over and done with. Home is getting backfired at anyways by the new live update coming so ps3 owners give up you lost. =P
Your list shows a distinct bias towards the 360. I own all consoles and play my PS3 the most. I pay for XBL yet im mostly on the PC or PS3... Right now resistance 2 beta takes up most my time.
Best MP game of the generation thats out already is Warhawk then Cod4, IMO. Im a bit PS3 bias though. The sad thing is you stacked the deck with that list and it was still not impressive. MGS4/MGO is getting expanded soon btw.
NXE<Home IMO.
You could list the entire 360 line up and then say...what does PS3 got pfft KZ2?
KZ2 is still the most impressive looking game ive seen to date. If only I could get in on that Beta I would ..../sigh. R2 keeps me busy its great fun. Good times.
Resistance 2 Metal Gera Solid 4 Uncharted LittleBigPlanet Killzone 2 God of War 3 Socom Infamous Heavy Rain Motorstorm 2 Warhawk Ratchet and Clank Future: Tools of Destruction Gran Turismo 5 White Knight Story MAG
"LBP gay as hell" Common you can do better than that, just think a bit and you can come up with a more coherent response. On a side note Gears of War more like Tears of War.
It's quite normal to find people you've played with on PSN on the net, especially on a Playstation dominated site such as this one. That and the fact that PSN is a small world. Good times, good times.
To Solidsnake93
Man, that's even more weaksauce than "LBP is gay as hell" Tears of War? Tears of War. Honestly, I don't see the truth or connection to anything, am I missing something? I think you're trying to say 'Tears of Bore' which is much more effective, anyway you put it, it is off topic and trolling which means you: OPEN ZONE PLEASE.
Still I think LBP is just a next gen Mario + level editor. Tell me I'm wrong please. I'll tell you you're wrong because if you tell me I'm wrong, you're implying that I'm trolling which I am not. I am clearly stating the fact that LBP is a next gen Mario + level editor. I have to explain this before 700 fake duplicate account attack me because they don't grasp the concept of positive comparison.
Thank you, a mario with a level editor is a good enough explanation for me. If LBP sells like mario games do it would be crazy. Mario is #1 best selling video game franchise @ approx 200 million sold.
edit.... x_x
Anyway, Soljahboy has an affinity for 360 this is nothing new. He is happy shooting pink and purple aliens. Whatever floats your boat. Where did I put that remote?
much different than Soulja Boy, if you can actually make a cohesive statement and mature argument for an opinion, it fares better. Honestly. I think both consoles have great games myself, though. Console bigotry is really a downfall, and is epitomized in Souljaboy's yacking.
hes completely right. he said it himself. 'ps2 was awesome, but ps3 just has no games.' i mean really, what games on ps3 can you play online competatively that are any good? i mean honestly, the best game for that is cod4. which is also on 360, and people actually TALK on MICs in 360 version.
answered by opinion, so nobody's wrong. If one can't find any games on 360 that are fun (just an example) but can find just one on PS3, then their online gaming is preferred to PS3 just because of their tastes. But there are millions of gamers on both networks....Heck, even if Smash Bros and Mario Kart are someones 2 fav games for online, they'll choose neither console and buy a Wii instead, and still not be wrong.
An illiterate fool praising the 360? No surprises there XD
what a idiot
With that thing?
I honestly believe that we have found the most illiterate Xturd out there
