I mean, the PS3 had an EPIC fail launch, and is now starting to be called a decent gaming console, I love MGS4 and am probably the biggest MGS fan, but PS3 just doesn't deliver, SONY has not delivered on one promise, and this is the second year into it's life span.... maybe LBP or Killzone 2 will brighten things up?

Wheres Heavy rain? God of War? are these 09 titles? Sony lost so many exclusives this War is it's laughable.

I think they lost exclusives because they focused on making a better system as opposed to making a better list of exclusives. I'd rather let 360 get FF13 and have the plus of blue ray and better graphics.

Nope.

The start was a little slow. But its either lots of games at the start, or much better games after a little while. Sony took a risk this gen, and its now finally paying off as the sales start to climb.

Well due to my gaming preference being towards the PlayStation brand. I have to say that I am not pissed at all. Sony is not for starting off slow. Plus Sony has released a decent number of exclusives. Resistance, Folklore, Ratchet and Clank and Uncharted to name a few. IMO I like Sony's 1st and 2nd party games more. They have a lot of talented Devs. I think Sony is doing a pretty good job so far. They have established a decent online service that is free and they are taking a different direction towards providing a unique gaming experience. The reason it seems that Sony is doing so bad is because Sony was viewed as the console God that destroys all rival.

no sony has played it smart, they seen that 3rd parties would just no longer be exclusive without sony have to pay a lot of money which just isnt worth it, so the best way to counter act this is to make new IP's and build strong 1st party studios.

I felt the same way. Sony knows that they have the largest 1st party studio to date and most of their greatest games on the PS2 were 1st and 2nd party. Because all of the 3rd party companies that went multi plat were having money troubles at the time. Capcom, Take2 and SquareEnix which needs multi plat success to cover for development cost.

I was little disappointed that Sony didn't have such a great start with the PS3. However, they've definitely picked up their game now, and they're releasing a tonne of really cool games for the system in the next few quarters that look pretty sick, and most are exclusives such as Resistance 2, LBP and Killzone 2. Not to mention other games that have just been released on the system (MGS4).

nope, at first they was not doing good but since 07, where exclusives coming out started to make them better, ps3 get 360 a 360 exclusives like that rpg game forgot what it was, lost planet and bioshock where they took devil may cry 4 and FF13 and i think sony is doing a better job than all 3. well sales wise it would be nintendo but they are for casuals.

Im not really dissapointed...

Kinda mad they way the go about doing things. I mean, the biggest thing is the delays and when they put games out. Some games have been talked about for so long yet have not been delivered. By that I mean announcing something a way back, promising a release and not giving. That jus sucks. One reason being it kills the hype and anticipation and who wants a delay? Nobody.

I have enjoyed all the games Ive played on ps3. I may not have agreed with all, and I may have not enjoyed all aspects of it...But my experiance with this gen has been nothing but great.

Once again iam annoyed with people using the word EPIC failure it annoys me so much, and just wondering where is this 50% margin when you look at a console and what % is classes as epic? because last time i checked fail was under 50% and epic was never there but how can you give a console a %?

You should stop complaning and rather thank Sony. Just because they havent deliverd good at all in a while. Dosent mean its the end of the world. Sony dosent want to push the games out on the market in a hurry, they want to make sure its working 100% before they realese the big titels. You saw everything what happend with Vista, and Xbox of how many users they lost. Accoring to PSX extreme XIII versus is coming by christmas. And all the other big titels like, LBP, Socom, Resistance, Motorstorm, and so much many year. Think of how 2009 is gonna be its gonna be a blast.

Im not, there are allot of good games out now.Sept and Oct are going to really put out some great games. I think Sony has ran this gen better than ms. And GOW is set to come out in 09 And if you think there are not that many good games out right now, just wait a couple more months.

Dissapointed? Not really.

Sony is loosing Exclusive? That's because Microsoft playing with their money on some of those games.

but i do miss a lot of RPG games on PS3, i hope Sony will bring me (and us) a lot of RPG games in TGS.

I'll keep rallying for Sony.

i think sony has run this gen better than any other. for example, they have a 10 year plan, this means that most of their high end stuff wont be out for years, so we will constantly be seeing improvements through the decade. where as microsoft has pushed 360 to its limits within 3 years.

also sony are not forking out more money for exclusives. they know that its better to make a great system and their own great games, rather than trying to steal competitors games and customers.

i own all 3 consoles, and im convinced that the ps3 will have the rise above the others over the years.

How has it failed? Just because its great exclusives are taking more devotion than they had projected? If you haven't noticed PSN has made huge leaps. I actually prefer the Playstation Network to Xbox live, and PSN is free. The software changed dramatically and you haven't noticed?

Jeez, how could Sony please you?

It takes time to establish a great console, and when Sony is trying to attack every angle of the system: software, online, 1st party games and all the other things it takes time. You have to enjoy what they have done: new software, online features that challenge XBL if not beating it, and the new release of MGS 4, and the prior exclusive games. Also this fall and holiday will show many, many more GREAT exclusives.

i am not dissapointed because i bought the PS3 mainly for Blu ray, BUT if i only had this as a gaming station i would be pissed! The games are a major dissapointment so is the online service and what would piss me off the most, Sony still bragging about the PS2, answering the masses call for budget games, not quality... hoping that LBP and KZ2 will beat the trend.

They are actually fixing their mistakes unlike the PS2 and PS1 gen where they didn't do anything and sold 120 million each. This isn't "old" Sony where everything is proprietary and they felt like they were god. Even before Ken Kutaragi left he made sure there was a plan for the PS3 to lower costs and improve the development kits.

THe games and the online service have been great since launch, and they have been constantly improving it, anyone who doesn't think so is an idiot or a fanboy.

I am upset with their underperformance, but I learned a valuable lesson. Look at the console itself (games, specs, exclusives) not what the multi-billion dollar corporations tell you. I bought a PS3 on launch, and while I don't regret it, I would have been much better off with the 360.

im getting tired of people complaining about sony.bodokai

so stop being a fanboy.

I agree with the OP - Sony has and continues to sell the console based on promises (some of them in the past, false ones) and due to the fact that the mojority of consumers have bought the PS3 because of the name PlayStation, not because it's actually superior this generation.

I just need more RPG's on the PS3... then im happy =D

I dont know if you looked in the past Sony pretty much destroyed Sega also had good games but had difficulties competing with sony. As sony went higher than Nintendo and sega. Sega producers had consoles that had one competed close to one of another like ( Sega saturn and PS1) and (Dreamcast to PS2). When the PS2 came out with DVD playback and a bigger library one of Sega partner companies couldn't supply parts to manufactured the Dreamcast and beaten by a DVD system that was affordable and better to play sega lost... I dont know why i told this story but one thing..

SONY may be lacking games some people say depending that there are good exclusives for the PS3. Not like your gonna buy them all in one day! As least they suceeded Blu ray and continuing to fight for game titles. Even tho PS3 are pricy to make they didnt drop and leave the console. The console is still going and Im not that angry.

Sega pissed me of... when they drop the dreamcast.. ; ;
