Maverick Posted April 5, 2007 Posted April 5, 2007 Caniffe, just wanted to say thanks for creating the new console sub forum. Cheers Mav
djOS Posted April 5, 2007 Posted April 5, 2007 Honestly Mav, you could have thanked Caniffe in the "Pinned Threads.....do We Have Too Many On Page 1" Topic, which was the catalyst for the change, instead of creating a new one.
djOS Posted April 5, 2007 Posted April 5, 2007 Seeing as this topic is here now: Caniffe can all Game Console topics (unless it is a PS3 + BluRay Playback specific topic) please be moved into the Game Console sub-forum? eg: Fan Noise Issues With Pal Ps3's. Playstation 3 - Best Deals And Prices Ordering A Ps3 From Yesasia ? Ps3 Deals For A Bit Longer Ps3 Audio Setup Question Ps3 Firmware Suggestions Non Ps3, Xbox, Hd Dvd, Bd Question How The Hell Do You Stop/delete A Psn Download In Progress? Ps3 + Setup In My Tag = A Much Better & Worthwhile Pq Increase? Internet Usage How Can I Tell What My Definfition My Ps3 Is Displaying At 20% Off At Playasia Ps3 Best Deal In Australia I've checked all of these topics and imo they are all general Game Console topics and not specific PS3 BluRay Playback Topics.

Some of the pure Game Console Topics have now been moved, Thanks again Caniffe. PS, I found a few more: No F1 For 360 Noise Issue With Xbox 360 Hd-dvd Player?

Wtb Mod-chipped Ps2 Fs: Xbox 360, Accessories And Games Where Ps3 Has Got It Wrong - $price$ Ps3 Australian Launch Parties Ps3 Best Deals In Town Ps2 Game Playback Through Ps3 Fs: Saints Row For Xbox 360 Sony Ps3 And Sony Kvhr Connecting Up Ps3 Xbox 360 May Support Blu-ray? Ps3 - Game Review The Ps3 And Its Firmware Ps3 Update 1.6 Now Available For D/l 360 Hardware Release Dates LOL
momaw Posted April 5, 2007 Posted April 5, 2007 The PS3 specific threads not purely about games are a hard call. You have to admit a majority of PS3 owners on this forum actually have it primarily for Blu-ray playback, which means hardware and firmware related threads are probably more relevant to this sub-forums readers that the gamers subforum.

I've actually checked the Topics above to see if they are "general PS3" or "PS3 + BluRay Movie" Topics and only asked for the former to be moved.

"Fan Noise for PS3" and quite a few others don't seem to mention games at all. I appreciate your efforts, but some of those I personally like where they are......but it's not my sandbox so whatever will be will be. My feeling is that General PS3 non game related topics should stay because as I said most owners here have it for BD primarily.

My feeling is that General PS3 non game related topics should stay because as I said most owners here have it for BD primarily. I understand your point but the fact is the PS3 is a Game Console 1st, BluRay Player 2nd so if the topic is not primarily about BluRay movie play-back on the PS3, then it should not be in the HD DVD & BluRay sub-forum (imo of course).
momaw Posted April 5, 2007 Posted April 5, 2007 ....but the fact is the PS3 is a Game Console 1st, BluRay Player...... really? not according to sony also according to amazon the PS3 has a total of 30 games (including coming soon titles) while it has 303 movies available on it. he he. looks more like a BD player than a games machine to me

Maverick Posted April 5, 2007 Author Posted April 5, 2007 Honestly Mav, you could have thanked Caniffe in the "Pinned Threads.....do We Have Too Many On Page 1" Topic, which was the catalyst for the change, instead of creating a new one. Sorry but I have never looked at that thread so I did not put the two together. Anyway no harm done a mod can delete this thread if they wish.

Scorchie™ Posted April 6, 2007 Posted April 6, 2007 I never looked at that thread either. If you need to bring something to my attention, please post it in the Help & Forum Announcements section.
Hydrology Posted April 6, 2007 Posted April 6, 2007 While the forums are a little better organised now, it would be nice if major changes like this were discussed with the members prior to happening, like a poll or some such. While the moderators may own the forum, its the members who make it what it is. Just my 2c.

Skid_MacMarx Posted April 6, 2007 Posted April 6, 2007 what happen to the "Blu ray enthusiast" thread (considering it mainly dealt with Blu ray in general not gaming) ... talk about bias and unbalanced this act has diminished my view of management.. clearly HD-DVD fan bots I acknowledge the animosity by a number of contributors towards the Blu-ray format and Sony, but there are a number of contributors like meself who support both.. very sad ..pathetic indeed If there is a problem with the title .. remove the PS3... talk about trying to crucify a format .. ironic you did it on Good Friday

Im not even sure if the mods are actually interested in the things we discuss.
Hydrology Posted April 6, 2007 Posted April 6, 2007 There was a discussion about it in the thread linked to in the 2nd post on this topic. I was aware of the discussion, I partook in it! Not the point Im trying to make. Only a handful of people discussed the matter, a lot less than the number of active members on this forum. Another week wouldnt have killed us all to wait while a poll on the top of every sub forum could have ben running.

pgdownload Posted April 6, 2007 Posted April 6, 2007 To be honest, this forum has no real link to consoles (other than there TV capabilities). The only reason I can see for separating the threads is just to highlight this fact. Regards Peter Gillespie
