i think that we should care because we are a part of this site but that last article is really affecting me because it isn't fair. Why can't things just be fair on this site? Why? Some people who work at gamespot aren't really people, they just want to make our lives (ps3 owners) miserable and I don't like it. Even if they are 360 fanboys why can't things still be equal? Is it that hard to leave the 360 out of a PS3 game you play for a couple hours? All I see in some PS3 reviews are "looks a bit better on 360" "360 version looks and plays better" but why do they have to do that? Does anyone else feel the same as me?

Why cant you accept other peoples opinion? If you dont like what gamespt think go to a site that better matches what you think. Im also a ps3 owner and so far I think Gamespot has been correct. The PS3 in its current shape is worse than the 360. Live with it.

Just move on. I am sure when PS3 has their highly anticipated games released, GS will change their opinion.

Gamespot is supposed to be unbiased.  There's not supposed to be any slant in their "professional opinion".  I prefer my PS3 over the 360 I traded last week for a 2nd PS3.  Live with it.

They need to spend less time writing articles with information sourced from their butt and maybe get us more news faster so we can actually use this site for more than the forums.

I thought they have been absolutely fair with the PS3. People who moan and complain just make the situation worse.

All they say about PS3 is complaints and bad things. I have yet to hear 1 positive thing about it. But when it comes to 360 there just no going wrong hu gamespot.

Awww, is someone upset about Resistance not gettnig that 9.6? People said negative things about when the 360 first came out, and now it's the PS3's turn. So just shut up and wait for the system to get more games, or get the hell out of this site.

I'm not saying GS is biased or anything but Def Jam scored 8.1 on both 360 and PS3 but they say its best on 360. It doesn make sense because they both got the same score.

That last article is actually Gamespot's desire for the PS3 to be great. Some people (like you) are reading it as "The PS3 is not worth buying". Read it carefully, it says "10 things that would make the PS3 worth buying". There is nothing against the PS3 there. It is just GS hoping that Sony will make things better, just like all of us in here are hoping as well.

i think he speaks of it.. cause if the article read.. it shows alot of cons towards the ps3.. and more speculation to it's pros..

Just give it some time.  I heard people whining about the 360 when it first came out, saying they were better off still  playing their original Xbox or PS2.  I don't hear anyone saying that now.   Give the PS3 a  year and I really doubt very many people will be ragging on it other than for the price.  If anything it's going to end like the Xbox and PS2.  "One game looks better on the other console, but they're basically the same."  or "Plays better on Xbox Live than....." You get the idea. The PS3 just needs time, dude.

The thing is this is a news site and people expect site like these to be non biased. I usually defend GS with topics concerning GS and their bias, but this latest article has thrown me off somewhat. Mainly because most of the stuff in there is misinformed and pure bs.

Of course the PS3 is in worse shape than the 360, I agree with you 100% on that, but that doesn't mean that people should freely spread around BS about the console.(Andrew park, Jeff Gersttman, and the argument about the hall of fame are recommended reads since they all contain pure bs)

Why would you be upset? If you don't complain about things that need improvement, SONY is never gonna budge. Have ya noticed since all the commotion of controller Vibration, Cost, Online, and More games. What happened, Sony finally responded and all these issues are being handled. Both Microsoft and Sony made a bunch of promises so keep throwing it in their face, I call it Progress. Enjoy what you have but don't close the door on options that will or may attract other gamers. And then there is those with opinion, so be it!

Which article? No such article exists.

 I think you're talking about the blog that someone made following sony's GDC. The main reason why no one talks about it is because it's more or less hidden from most users. You have to go into the news section, go into the news blogging sub section, and scroll all the way down to find it. It's actually pretty funny that after one editor made those positive comments about sony all the editors conglomerate to make one huge article about the problems of sony and how Home basically isn't that good.

I really thought the editors here were journalists, but I'm having second thoughts. Journalists try to avoid soft articles like this one. I have a feeling they're just appealing to their demographic though: the brainless Xbox360 fanboy.

I don't normally get involved in these arguements, but right now I really do have some issues with Gamespot. The ceiling for all three (360/Wii/PS3) should be the same...but it's not. PS3 titles and features are dragged through the mud with the editors conviently forget about 360 issues this time last year and give Wii a free pass on their blatant inability to produce their system.

When I see balanced coverage maybe then GS can recover some of their journalistic integrity.

Comparisons with 360 are inevitable and I don't think there is anything wrong with that but the problem with Gamespot is that their editors seem to lack some professional editorial skills. I've noticed, gradually over the past couple of years their reviews and articles are dull and boring. I swear I could write better content sometimes and with the loss of Kreg, things have gotten worse. I hate to say it but IGN's reviews and editiorials are much better.

Quite the contrary, my friend. Journalists may try to be impartial, but if it were impartial it wouldn't have to go through editors before it got to us. Reporters are impartial, journalists are edited. Journalism is always filtered through someone's opinion.

I think this site dislikes ps3 and makes me want to cancel my membership. I want to know good news about the ps3 and GS seems to tell you 2 days later than ign or 1up does, to me, that's a big wake up on what GS treat the 360, and they put 360 news in the ps3 section........When my membership is up in summer, I wont be renewing it, I promise that.
