alrighty heres a question for my sony PS3 users, Is XBOX 360 the NEW dreamcast? and state ur reasons people plz come on at least we no our facts unlike 360 users so dont say yes it is be like yes is it because all they are doing is repeating games such as halo and dont have as many exclusive brand name titles such as MGS4, FF, Socom, and others.

no its not the next dreamcast, the main reason for the failure of the dreamcast was segas lack of money.

Why can't everyone just get along? I never thought of the PS3 as the next dreamcast. It is such an awesome system. I play my friends ps3 more than he does. Whats the point of calling each console a failure? Lets just enjoy what we have and play some games.

The xbox 360 is a console targeted at the USA market. The previous xbox also was. Thats why PS had advantages the previous gen and the gen before it. This gen it will be tougher to beat but most likely the PS3 will win again, reason comes from a simple Marketing term called BRAND. Play Station is an already settled brand, so when the casual market/public starts looking for a new console (this happens 3-4 years after release) the first thing that will come to their minds is Play Station, thanks to the fact that it was in most cases their previous console. But Sony doesnt has to sleep easily because of this. Praising previous success and thinking it will happen again without effort is one of the major "sins" a company can make. Thus Sony still has a long way to reach an estability point, and if the numbers are even in 3-4 years, then its most likely that public will move to the PS3 instead of the 360 just for the "brand" factor.

naw. the dreamcast was a good system but failed due to lack of sales and money in genral. microsoft has a ton of cash, and the system is good, just isn't reliable and doesn't have a whole lot of good games. granted it has gears, but i find it to be repetitive. i dont think any systems this gen will die any time soon. each have there strong points

wii:

innovative, has the ability to have people who dont normally play games to come and join, easy to use, and cheap

ps3:

powerhouse, good games, reliable, good company, awesome customer service, most featres, good store getting better, free online able to have HDR and AA on simotaneously, and is the only system to use HDR(which i like more).

360:

large library(even though its qaulity over qaunity), nice amount of split screen games, split screen online, able to play music and games simotaneously, cheaper than ps3, decent graphics.

so yea, i dont find any system horrible, just the ps3 appeals to me most. everyone has an opinion though.

I command some xbox360 fan to go tell a mod about this and then I command that mod to lock this thread. Watch my power. You can't resist my power mod, I command you to lock. Just another useless mod.

If the Wii continues to dominate... maybe the PS3 and 360 will both become the new Dreamcast?

wii dominates because of the price. sure its fun, but if all of them were the same price who knows where the war would end up.
