And that is all. Yes, there are only 98% comments on Youtube. Why? Don't ask me, that's their problem.
Because the other 2% were comments removed by author. :lol:

There are actually on-topic mostly intelligent posts on Youtube... you can tell when they happen as the trolls will down-rank them to -1 or -2.

I suppose the main reason that people are so quick to yell fake is that there are a lot of fake videos on Youtube. Everything from the tennis ball with hole unlocking of car doors type fakes to remarkable 3D renders passed off as real things. People have been pointing out fakes for so long, it's become a bit of a meme to post 'fake' on anything and everything.

I'm actually listening to his video, he tends to add thing after basically everything, he also sounds like he has no idea what the hell he is talking about.
I haven't been here in awhile, and looking back it's one of the worst ideas I ever had. I'm back and I'll be here for awhile, I was quite active 1 year ago and I hope to become that again.

thats probably because he doesnt. listen to his voice; he is either really young or was raped as a child, and im assuming he first. notice how there isnt a completed project, nor is there any real progress. all he did is pop the top on a psone. :facepalm:


EDIT: someone just joined and posted on that forum with the username "MR+BH". sadly, i would have to register to see whats going on, and i really dont want to register. anyone up for a force invasion? get so many of us to join and spam them that they freak out?

Very true, or that he thought Ben's book was a complete guide. In any case, what I thought was hysterical was on his site he said he's gonna try a portable 360. I'm not trying to be mean but don't pretend to be something if you have no idea about the topic.

Also he's selling a PS2p for 600 dollars in his online store, it looks like a psone screen attached to a PS2 controller. If I ever wanted a PS2p (which I do) I'd pay a visit to here or MR. I think I'm being to harsh so I'm going to back off.



Back on topic.

My friends think its fake because they see the console and see its limitations but the potential it has to be something better and more vesatile, I would rather have a portable N64 than one that worked fixed to a TV and outlet any day.

Are you serious, in the web store it says copyright 2010 for his portable ps2, and he's using a picture from a member on here the built that ps2p a long time ago. Kid that's not copyrighted by you. Seriously, we should at least tell him not to use other people pictures for his sale of his portable he'll never finish.
