Can Sony be Original?

Take a look at that and tell me sony is original.

Also nintendo launched the home gaming industry with the NES and paved the way for almost every genre of game. How is that not original? I'll admit that the 360 doesnt have any original features but it utilizes already known ones better and cheaper than any other system. Originality doesnt mean no one can copy you. If its a good idea people should copy you and the more youre copied the better your idea was. Cavemen invented the wheel that was a pretty original idea. But it would mean nothing if it didnt catch on. atari invented gaming but wasnt as popular as mainstream nintendo. so nintendo is credited with revolutionizing gaming. henry ford didnt invent the wheel but he is often credited with making the auto industry as popular and important as it is today. ford took a known idea and used it to revolutionize the industry. sony has yet to do anything of the sort. ok they came out with the playstation...pretty original. but they havent done anything since to change it. the graphics got better. big whoop. theyve been using the same controller since the ps1 and havent changed since. nintendo on the other hand has changed the industry with the wii and motion sensing. ms has revolutionized online play with xbl. but in the end sony will be the cavemen inventing something but never really putting it to use or popularizing it and nintendo/ms will be henry ford, building off of someone elses innovation but making it survive and have a lasting impression.misteryoung

[QUOTE="murstdurst"]wasn't it sony that came first with pressure sensitive buttons? and pressure sensitive d-pad? and remeber how the ps2 can be placed standing up or laying down? you know xbox 360 can do that to, right?... i dont think i have seen 1 hardware originality on xbox. nintendo do make original stuff now and then, but most of it has been made by others... rumble was immersion to name one.snyper1982

if you ask someone what was the first video game system they are likely to say NES. atari and collecovision and others werent as mainstream as nintendo and didnt appeal to the masses. i was just saying that nintendo took ideas but used them in a more appealing way and improved upon them. they are like the "cavemen" and nintendo is the "ford"

and why couldnt they think of a better font than that of spiderman. were they too busy thinking of ways to "innovate" the console?

Wow.New levels of stupidity.It's like we're regressing as a species.Atari were huge pre Ninty and NES was no where as big as PS1.You could argue that PS1 brought gaming to the masses and even made it a bit cool.You could argue that much of the tech used in consoles by MS/Ninty was used by Sony first.Toslink/optical,surround sound,CD,DVD,scart or anything used in home cinema kit before consoles.Multi core was Sega(saturn)but the PS2 did it pre 360 with it's vector units.

You can argue black is white if it suits your point of view.

Can nintendo and Microsoft stop using Cd's!Krigon
