ParticipantThe question the BBC asked was:
Sony releases its latest games console in Europe and Australia this week. Are you rushing to get one?
Rather than simply answering the question, people decided to use it as a soap box to turn the board into an opportunity to complain about their own issues:
Pathetic. Simply pathetic.I would be interested to know how many of these new consoles will be paid for by cash that was actually EARNT, rather then plundered from the DSS.”Sorry, baby Chardonnay – you’ll have to hungry this week ‘cos Daddy Wayne wants to spend his job-seekers allowance on a PS3″

“The PS3 will generate yet another generation of murders, rapists and killer drivers through violent, sick games. Why are they not banned?”

No no, it is a toy for men/boys to help get away from their oppressive partners who took to much notice of equality.

Participant“To be honest, I have never been unduly impressed by level of argument on this site; but to discover that many of those debating, morality, politics, economics, philosphy etc… hereon, are couch potatoes who spend their leisure hours playing moronic, shoot-em-up arcade games truly came as something of a surprise. I am not often guilty of overestimating people but…….”

Luke_Yeovil – “The PS3 will generate yet another generation of murders, rapists and killer drivers through violent, sick games. Why are they not banned?”
That’s right. It’s a well known fact that Elizabethan families were decimated after Shakespeare wrote Hamlet and inspired his audiences to go home and kill their uncles. As a child, I would regularly beat passers-by to death with a shovel after watching Tom & Jerry and don’t even get me started on the A-Team…

If this is the most interesting debate the BBC can come up with – then I would like to meet the staff of the HYS team.
Pathetic / Ridiculous / Idiotic
