I am a hardcore playstation gaymer. I love my PS3, PSP, PS2, and PSone. I would never trade them. And though I think Sony will come out on top, I don't think I really care anymore if it doesn't. What exactly does last place mean? I mean, ask original Xboxer and Gamecube owners, and they will tell you that they still got a bevy of fantastic exclusives regardless of their sales lag. Why is everyone so worried about PS3 winning exactly?

Yeah. It was intentional. Why do the fanboys care so much? So they have more street cred, or **** talking power? That's a little ridiculous.

I think lots of people take pride in their choice of console, and like to argue that there's is better than the other options. I agree with you that it doesn't matter, at the end of the day, both systems get many of the same games, and each also gets their own exclusives. I wish we had som of the 360 exclusives, and I'm sure non fanboy 360 owners would admit they would like some of the PS3 exclusives. I think the only real reason why you want your console to be the top seller is that then the developers are more likely to make their cross-platform game with the the leading console in the forefront of their considerations. Meaning the leading console might get a multi-platform game first, and it might be better.

Pandadude: That makes a lot of sense. I guess it's just really annoying that this has caused so much uproar this generation. To a degree of intensity. To the point where developers can't make an announcement without carefully planning public reaction.

I wonder why their is generally more of a console war this generation. Is it just because the age demographic of gamers has become younger?

Last generation, I would only have been about a 12 year old when I got my PS2 (I'm 17 now) and I never felt like going and telling everyone how much better my PS2 was than their Xbox. It doesn't really make much sense.

People who participate in these console/system wars are childish & are not true gamers. True gamers either buy a system because they like it or don't buy it. True gamers don't spend half a day arguing about why their system is best, I mean at the end of the day it makes them look like children arguing over which power ranger rocks. I honestly don't even care for these console wars at all and in my mind they don't even exist, so to answer your question, No, I don't care.

But why would you get more exclusives if the PS3 was doing better than any other console?

I care who wins.

PS3 has been all but written off for this generation by the naysayers. Nothing would give me more satisfaction than to have Sony dominate and stick all of their respective feet in their face holes.

If people did not run thier mouths so much as to how Sony and PS3 is such a failure, this would be a non issue.

i now i just can't stand all the hate all of a sudden even before the ps 3 launched ect. what every gamer complained last gen about the ps 2 (falty hardware, no hdd, ect.) seems to be ok this gen with the 360. but yes in the end i now the ps 3 will meet my gaming needs and now that it will work after years of play which is the really only thing that matters here. yes i like some of 360 games but i went through 3 ps 2 and really don't want to do it again this gen. i also stay with the most first party support because mutiplats are mutiplats but never seen first party go mutiplat so sony will all ways have the most exclusive because they have the largest first party.

Why do system wars exist, especially nowadays?

It's a simple answer - childish and immature kids, teens and adults brainwashed by media and news in this fast growing age of technology that we live in.

Sadly, majority of immature people populate the gaming market overshadowing the normal people who only wish to enjoy gaming.

Have your own thinking and understanding, do not listen to uninformed and misleading comments made by kids and fanboys.

When you have your own mind to think and make decisions based from your perspective, then you will enjoy gaming. Or anything else in real life for that matter. ;)
