a bit disappointed in people who do not appreciate what a beautiful machine the PS3 IS

prof16440

Do you mean it's looks or what it does?

If you mean appreciate what it does, then can it. I don't give a rat's *** about viewing pictures, folding@home, watching Blu-ray, surfing the internet, uploading my MP3's or micromanaging my alt accounts. That stuff is trivial bull****.

i could seriously care less about someones opinon on the ps3, but what your still failing to relize is my point that, what your doing is constantly comparing it to a console your bias for, that how all of your arguments go, comparing to a 360, so your trying to turn every thread into system wars. Also for the record, your opinon of what makes the ps3 subpar are the reasons people buy it, with the exception of installing games, which earlier your were whining about 10 minute installs, seriously 10 mins?

thegame1980

Call it whining if you want to but the fact is we shouldn't have to install the game PERIOD! It is NOT a PC it's a home videogame console and that is/was one of the main reasons I prefer home vidoegame consoles over PC gaming. I find it absolutely ironic how PS3 fans consider it "whining" when someone complains about installs be it 5 minutes or 10 but when the discussion is about switching discs to compensate for lack of memory on a DVD9 they laugh and call it a burden. Double standards and hypocrisy RULE with the PS3 fanboys it seems. If you care less about ones opinon on the PS3 then ignore my posts and move on.

To the Game, I have heard that DMC4 takes half an hour bro

Mgs4 is only the 2nd game on the system that takes advantage of its true power. The last one was uncharted, but it was hampered by bad VO and missing features *IE can't crouch in cover? newb forgetfullness*. Though most of the games that look truely amazing still have to have their resolution hampered with and then upscaled. *mgs4, or at least some cutscenes were*

hazuki

Drake auto-crouches when the cover is the right height. If you can find me a single instance in the game where Drake just stands there in cover while the wall comes up to his waist, let me know. Noob forgetfulness on your part, maybe.

When your in say a pillar, you can't crouch. Its plain and simple. Might not seem like much, but it lowers how much an enemie can see you and actually can see you.

I know when say you have a broken piller lying on the ground, he'll crouch automatically. But you can manually do that in the big items, that could potentially prevent a few shots from hitting you, as you're a smaller target. Worked in gears, mgs2/3/4, and killswitch, so don't even try to say its not useful.

I played through Uncharted twice and never had a single issue in which I would inexplicably be out of cover and getting shot. Behind a pillar is behind a pillar, whether you are crouched or not has nothing to do with the enemies spotting you. It's just not a game mechanic.

Switching DVDs doesn't bother me because of the physical process of actually getting up and doing it, it's just the fact that it's on two discs. I hated changing discs in FF7 (especially when you revert to a previous save file) and nothing has changed. The capacity for optical media is so ridiculously huge now that there is no excuse whatsoever for having to change discs... unless your excuse is that you're an X360 and you only play 10 year old technology.

The fact that they had BC and then removed it for no good reason on the 40 gig, is dissapointing, at least to me.

this topic needs to be moderated because of like 3 people who keep complaining about nothing. I have had 9 exclusives on the system and at least liked them all. The person complaining about GT 5 P is pretty shallow minded. They always put that out and if you don't like it, you didn't have to buy it.

Well to me the only game really worth a damn is MGS4 (though I love playing Tekken DR online). Most other high profile games I can get on my 360 that graphically looks just as solid, and play for the achievement points. So far? Yes, I am dissapointed with the PS3. I find myself mainly using my PS3 to watch movies on...

The person you are picking on about GT 5 was me. Incase you didnt realise you little rodent, Sony had a long time to prepare for GT5.. and the release was crap.. either look at poeple personal review or the solid "7" that it got from gamespot.

Dont you dare jump out at me and pick on my feelings, and but start "oh this topic neeeds to be moderated". you little ****.

The Hypocrisy of that is just disgusting.

What is it with people like you picking on people who have a voice, an opinion? No one picked on you or your thoughts till you stepped on toes and called me shallow minded, and then acted like you forgot my name when its clearly there for you to read.

GT5 sucked bro, period. Its B-Grade and thats that. If we never knew of GT4 it would have got a 6.5.

And if you didnt like it, you didnt have to buy it? um... yeah... THANKS.

its called an opinion, its not a matter of true or false. we understand that you dont like any games on the ps3. i, and many others however do enjoy games like uncharted, ratchet and clank, heavenly sword, mlb 08, and warhawk. as far as i am concerned i am speaking the truth about the fact that those are ALL good games for the ps3.

xbox is a gamming console, ps3 is a muiltimedia system. Just like mother nature, ps3 is naturally more superior. Anything it lacks will be made into software and updated with firmware.

[QUOTE="UnrealSin_X"]And why?gamer082009

I'm disappointed with the PS3's lack of games, long development cycles, constant delays, and Sony's out-of-touch with TRUE gamers. Sony should've had the price point more customer friendly from the get go. Sony should've created a more developer friendly console or much more better dev-kits that were actually more manageable for the devs. Now we have some developers who just refuse to work with the PS3 just because of it's architect, in particular the Cell CPU. The GPU in the PS3 should've been more thought out, then it wouldn't be causing a bottleneck in the system.

Sony needs to get in touch with us TRUE gamers again, especially the original PlayStation fans who feel left out and betrayed by Sony. Sony shouldn't have tried to sell the PS3 as a multimedia center first but instead as a gaming machine first and then a multimedia machine last. Lastly, Sony needs to reconnect with it's core audience and realize that the PlayStation name won't stay alive unless Sony has something to back it up with,,, and that's games. So that's why I'm disappointed with the PS3 and Sony.

While this statement is some what correct the only problems problems seem to be with the Lazy developers Like EA and valvle (at least right now) and the studios that actually put effort in trying to draw out the system's potentialare seeing really good results such as, Konami, Insomniac, naughty dog, Take Two, Activision, and eventually Square-Enix and Level 5

Not really. The games are great but I would like for Sony to make online play more accessible and simplified. I dont mean to compare but Microsoft did an awesome job with Xbox Live. I like both systems equally as they have their perks and flaws.

if you dont think the ps3 has plenty of good games your an idiot, either that or your taste in games is piss poor. you can make love to your 360 all you want. the funny thing is, i realize the 360 is a good console but you fools who keep claiming the ps3 has no games are getting stale. tell me. what are all of these awesome games you have for your 360? as far as calming my nerves.....what gives you the impression that my nerves are racked, can you tell that by the way i type or do you have some sort of special powers?

I'm just gonna ignore "thadude85" because he's looking for attention. Anyways, you can't call developers lazy just because they refuse to take the TIME AND MONEY to put soley into the PS3. People always forget that it cost these developers MONEY to put time into projects, especially when the (PS3)hardware is just too developer UNFRIENDLY. Big companies like Valve and iD software have voiced their concerns with the PS3's Cell CPU and I can surely tell you Valve and iD Software are FARRR from being lazy developers. It took Kojima about 4-5 years or so to work on MGS4.

So imagine if every developer tried to figure the PS3's architect out alone, we wouldn't see a worthy game until every 4 years or more and that's not good business practice for most developers. So you need to rethink your invalid points on a few things. If Sony thought twice about the Cell and figured out how to make better dev-kits then the PS3 would be more worthy of a gaming system and not just disregarded as a Blu-ray player.

im not just "looking for attention". i have over twenty games for my ps3 and enjoy all of them. this doesnt even include the miriad of ps2 and ps1 games that i have. the only point im trying to make is that the ps3 is NOT just a bluray player. truth be told that statement at one point was probably the truth, about a year and a half ago. again, not trying to "just get attention" but trying to argue the point that to call the ps3 just a bluray player anymore is pretty silly.
