Do any of you remember waiting 8 months for a game to come out on your super nintendo? Or your sega genesis?

did dreamcast make you wait more than half a year before releasing a good game?

did ps1 or ps2 ever do that?

ps3 is the first console, in the history of consoles where after you buy it, and even after waiting over 250 days, there is STILL no rock solid game that is not some port from another system that in this case will remain naimless.

the playstation 3 is in insult, a punch in the face, and a stab in the back to every true man or woman who calls themself a gamer.

"Just wait?"

buying a playstation 3 is just like buying some stupid item from a tv paid commercial with high hopes, and taking it home,and realizing that none of your expectations have been satisfied

mabye it will be worth getting someday but guess what? that day is not today.... and tomorrow does not look to hot either.

There have been epic failures in the industry that would have died to do what the PS3 is doing right now. Such failed consoles like the Philips CD-I, the Atari Jaguar, the 3DO, the Sega Saturn, and the N-gage (which was a failed portable really).

i completely disagree with any comments saying that sega's system is worse than the ps3. I have owned all the systems that sega has made and on DAY ONE, and throughout the first couple of months of its release i was playing fun awesome games.. which is what i do with a system...i play games on it... i dont buy a system so i can wait a year for it to blossom, thats just mental. 600$ saved for 1 year at 5% intrest----> then go buy the system when its worth getting.

I remember saving up money forever to get my Nintendo 64 and the two games that were available at launch. Those two games were all that was out for quite a while. I never cried about it though.

You think the PS3's bad? Let me show you some real flops: 3DO-This console launched for 700 US$(you thought 599 US DOLLARS was too much for a console?), and while it had some good titles(one being the greatest game of all time), that hefty pricetag pretty much killed it. CD-i-This console was probably even MORE expensive than the 3DO at launch, and worse off, has pretty much NO good games at all. It also spawned three certain Zelda titles that we will never speak of again. ("Well, excuuuuuuse me, princess...") Jaguar-While it wasn't too ridiculously overpriced, it still didn't really have any worthy titles. In fact, EGM/Seanbaby's 20 Worst Games Ever is full of Jaguar titles! I wouldn't put the Sega Saturn up there, though. Yes, it was lackluster-in America, that is. The thing actually lasted until 2000 or so in Japan, since that branch of Sega actually knew how to market properly. It's also got plenty of killer apps, though a good bit of those were Japanese exclusives.

Sorry, but if you clicked the link, you'd find out that I was talking about a different SC. Namely, Star Control II: The Ur-Quan Masters. (And, yes, I do consider it the greatest game of all time.) (In fact, UQM is the 3DO version open-sourced and backported to the PC.)

I think the hype of the system and the DVD playback is what saved the system in the beginning. The DC was a better choice for gamers at the time. After the system had a huge fan base, the games came and came and came and it turned into a must have system for gamers and casuals. Will the same thing happen with the PS3? Only time will tell!

Remind me again what great game came out for the ps2 before GTA3. As far as I remember it wasn't until it came out that people really started buying ps2's and it came out almost a year later. I'm serious about this question as my memory for that period is rusty and I didn't buy a ps2 until the next spring.

Oh, and by the way TC. you may say the ps3 is a joke, but it's selling better than both the ps1 and ps2 did in the first 7 months, so it has at least lived up to past standards of sales, even if the games are lacking.

....so many fanboys nowadays. back when ps2 was launched it had a slower start than the ps3 and all the dreamcast fans were like PS2 IS GONNA FAIL. We'll wait and see. i see 360 failing (technically and generally) more than the ps3.

Not from a sales standpoint, but from the spiritual view. They were the first company to put a dent in Nintendo's armor.

Dude, did you not read the post you quoted, he says 2-3 years.
