Yeah, I'm an American, and we have the right to be as hypocritical as we want to be. Its in the Constitution, or the Declaration of Independance, or the Magna Carta, or South Park...

Go tell it to the Turks.

'Ireland also has 7.7 times the GDP of, lets take a random example, say, Cyprus. That's north and south combined.'
Your making numbers up, Cyprus has more GDP per capita.

*rolls eyes*
Matt and Trey's entire thesis of American foreign policy is based on hypocrisy. And it would not matter to me if you were 100% alien, your opinion is still ignorance based on spurious logic based on an assumption.

Not according to the CIA, where I got the last set of figures from.

Cyprus
GDP - per capita (PPP): Republic of Cyprus: $21,500 (2005 est.); north Cyprus: $7,135 (2004 est.)

Ireland
GDP - per capita (PPP): $41,000 (2005 est.)

Unless Cyprus did some serious work to increase their GDP per capita between 2004 and 2005, it isn't even close. Sorry.

PS: Is this an Irish website? Its funny how you constantly(from my experience) make fun of other races but then when someone says (gay ireland) you get so offended.

Actually, the site is based in the UK, we just don't like baseless bashing of ethnicities.

We mostly rag on the yanks round here, but that's just for fun. Most of the Americans on here agree with what we say. Actually, we usually just bash Bush and his corporate cronies, putting yourself on a pedestal gives people the right to throw stones.

But calling a whole country a "gay little country" is more spiteful than most comments we get here. Especially when you didn't back it up with any facts as to why you believe it.

When you get an Irishman, Englishman and an American opposing what you said about Ireland, you may just have overstepped the mark.

Ok i'm wrong. Compare Ireland's GDP to America.
See Russel Peters makes fun of people like you. I called it little and gay coz people buy consoles due to fads.What ahypocrit you can make fun of America but you can't say gay Ireland? damn. And just to show that in Cyprus enimaste pouties opos esas read this joke about Greeks that I found funny.

'A Greek and Italian were arguing over who had the superior culture. The Greek says, "We have the Parthenon."

Arching his eyebrows, the Italian replies, "We have the Coliseum."

The Greek retorts, "We Greeks gave birth to advanced mathematics"

The Italian, nodding agreement, says, "But we built the Roman Empire."

And so on and so on until the Greek comes up with what he thinks will end the discussion. With a flourish of finality he says, "We invented sex!"

The Italian replies, "That is true, but it was the Italians who introduced it to women."'

Yes I thought that and it looks better spelled 's**tty' but then... well it looks like its pronounced with too much emphasis on 't'.

Too easy.

United States of America
GDP - per capita (PPP): $41,800 (2005 est.)

Only a difference of $800 per person between USA and Ireland. Not too shabby if you ask me.

There is a large difference between calling George Bush an idiot and writing off an entire country in the way you did.

While I thank you for typing English here for the majority of your postings (my Greek is non existent) don't you think it a little rude to include snippets of, what I presume is Greek in your postings?

Apology accepted as far as I'm concerned. You didn't start off on the right foot though if you want to be on good terms with everybody.

The only thing I'm not allowed to do under the UK (and I believe EU) data protection act is give out personally identifying data without your permission. There are roughly 784,301 people living on Cyprus, it'd be hard to find you with just that information.

LOL. Have you played any of these games?

I think that the person who was saying that at the moment the controller was a gimmik (PreciousRoi?) has a valid point.

But more off, your choice of games is interesting: Red Steel is apparently uncontrollable at the moment based on E3 reports, TP looked uncontrollable - the guy demoing it at the Nintendo conference had problems controlling it and even the presenter remarked about it, MP's controls are sound from what I've read. None of the other games you mention have had public or private demos as far as I know.

As for the other discussion on "s**tty", I pronounce the ts, and there's a "skip" in the word because of the two ts - s**t-ty.

However, I agree with Wiiwii that is it a bit of bad taste for a moderator to reveal any kind of potentially personal information of a user. Although, I didn't realise that Wiiwii lived in Cyprus until I read this post - so it wasn't really personal information.

Prehaps I'm just not very perceptive though ;) :p.
