Okay I think we all know there are people who simply hate the PS3 whether it be because they love the 360, their dissapointed by it (undeservedly so because for god's sake, it's only been out for a damn day), some combination of the two or even anger at not being able to get one at launch.

The result is Ranting illogical posts in the forum designed to piss people off or draw flames and disrupt the decent posts by people just trying to enjoy what they have, share with others and discuss the system in a mature manner. Most of us here are confident in our choice of system and eager to defend it but there's a problem with that.

When you argue with a troll the troll wins!

The trolls dont care that you have valid counterpoints to their irrational ranting, they dont care that you're angered by their walking into your territory and pissing all over your joy they simply hate for the sake of hate and your annoyance and frustration with them fuels their tanks for more trolling!

Please stop feeding trolls! When you argue with them you push down the threads that BELONG here, threads about the PS3 games Threads with real information rather than lies posted by fakers with no actual source for their claims who are trying to scare people away from the system. If you keep Bumping their threads then their campaign of lies, decite and annoying behavior stays up from and causes even more well meaning defenders to keep their posts alive and giving them more reason to display their ignorant behavior.

The Mods may be slow but they're there for a reason, REPORT TROLLS dont argue with them. either the mod will get to it and lock the thread or the thread will drop off the page to be forgotten. Either way THAT is how you fight trolling.

Help the PS3 forum, don't contribute to the destruction by giving trolls what they want.

Hey completely agree there m8 but it applies to all forums. Im not a particular fan of sony but I wouldnt come down here and kick up a fight just to annoy/anger/upset fellow users of this forum. I agree theres been a fair bit of hate towards the PS3 and if you dont like it, thats finebut dont drag everyone else down with you. Same goes for the others as well...each forum gets attacked by the few who ruin it for the many.

Gaming is for fun! We should all respect each other and enjoy our experiences (and others). I strongly believe each of the new consoles has distinct appealing qualities and all deserve some respect! Anyway all I can say is I hope you guys get your PS3's, they are sure proving popular and had to find! :D

That's a fast way to make an assumption that might not be correct, too.

Just because someone might not think the PS3 isn't the best thing going doesn't make them a troll.  Another way to clean up the boards is for all of the fanboys to stop getting their feelings hurt everytime someone posts something they don't agree with.

I fully agree with you.

I would post it in another forum but I spend my time here. You're welcome to post it in your 360 or Wii forum of choice with edits made to accomodate your system discription if you like.

I don't condone the bashing of anyone's system in their respective forums. That's what system wars is for and if you like that sort of thing that's where you belong. Not in the system specific forums where people just want to discuss their console of choice.

I think you can generally make a distinction most of the time. People who rate PS2 or GC games fairly but hate on the 360 might be biased but if they have a few 360 ratings and say something bad about the system it's easier to assume they feel they are making a valid argument. While at the same time a person saying "Man those f00ls in the PS3 line are m0r0ns anhnd I hope they all get Noomonya! and their sistems break and catch fire!!1!" is about as damning as catching a killer just as he's gutting newborn babies and wearing their intestines as a belt. Open and shut.

First, I don't understand why anyone would care what fanboys of 360 or ps3 h aters have to say anyway. Let them talk and say whatever they want. Its not like its going to change anything. The ps3 had a bad launch. So what! Guess what? the ps2, 360 and almost every other system had a same bad start and look how they turned out or in this case going to turn out.

People take this thing a little to serious. Remember its just gaming, and the only winner shoul dbe us the gamers. I love Sony, Nintendo and 360 and they all have their good and bad moments. PS3 will be fine and everyone that is just on the 360 bandwagon will eat crow sooner or later. Let people talk cause that what forums are for no matter how dumb, stupid. lame, fanboyish or whatever they can come up with. If you let crap they spit out of their mouths(or in this case out of their fingers) actually get to you then your just playing into their hands. Its just the launch and it will be a different story when MG4, DMC, FF and others hit the stores in the future(then again when Halo comes out that too will bring more fanboys).


Remember, its just games and nothing more. I love games and will play games on any system I can get my hand on(ok ok, I am the type  that has to buy every system that comes out).

Unfortunatly not everyone can do that. Which is the cause of System Wars to begin with. When people pick a system it's usually because they either don't have the money, space or time for eveyr system so they feel the need to defend the one they choose and win people to their side. The more people a system has supporting it the more support the system gets from companies because that's where the cash is.

If EVERYone could have all the systems there'd be no system wars, but sadly that's like wishing for world peace.

PS3 is an excellent little machine and It does deserve to be up there in the competition. Trolls shouldn't be feared as they are just lost souls looking for some way of annoying the general public.

well heres a little bit of truth. I love my 360, MS has there things together. sony not so much... yeah little problems with both systems cant be avoided, but im disapointed in sony, 2 years late, was originally supposed to launch a year before the 360, , but the main things i have about the ps3 is, lack of games, exclusives, problems for the devs. and what not, but i know all that will get better and change if sony can hang on, and i know they can. I have high hopes for the ps3, and i know that one day it will be an excellent system.  but for 600 dollars ill wait until some of it is fixed, now dont get me wrong, im not hating on the ps3, just given you my opinion on the matter, i hope sony comes through, any true gamer wont want any system to fail, because better compitition = better for the consumer, better games, better online, better all round, and as soon as people start realizing this the better, but not too soon though, half the money these people make are off the "system wars" anyway. so its all a win win situation, none will fail.  but i have a feeling MS has this one though.

1. Two years late? I'd call it on time. See we;re talking about sony and if they lanuched ahead of the 360 trolls would just claim that the 360 was better because it was a year after the PS3 and somehow has newer technology just like they did with the xbox, strangly enough none of these people will accept this argument for the PS3 even though it comes a year later.

2. Your disapointment aside none of the issues you point out are reason enough for anyone to troll or hate on the PS3. And Yes, I do understand you're not trying to trash the system though and I appreciate that, but I'd appriciate more that this thread not turn into a place to air your preferance of system. Because comeing into the PS3 forum and trying to make a case for what most people concider "the enemy" just makes them want to lash out and then you have to deal with our fanboys on your forum.

On the first page of the PS3 forums, isn't there a topic that says "Anyone who talks about the Xbox360 will be banned" or something like that? People talk about the Xbox 360 all the time but nothing happens. And there is always someone who doesn't like the PS3 putting it down on the PS3 forums. If they don't like it then they shouldn't be in the PS3 forum at all. For example me, I do not own a Nintendo Wii, or an Xbox 360, and I probably won't own one of those sytems for a while, so there is no need for me to go to those forums and I don't. I think thos people who don't own one, or who aren't thinking about buying a Playstation 3 shouldn't be in the PS3 forum at all. I own a Playstation 3 which would make sense why I am always in the PS3 forum. Don't be fooled by my Level and posts, I made a new account to go with my Playstation Network ID.
