I find it funny that there are all of these 360 vs PS3 arguments while sales-wise, the Wii has so far owned all of them.

sonys Failures did certainly help out the xbox 360, but it being rushed to the market a year ahead of its competitors did help it as well. Ofcourse RRoD is as prevelent as ever (what makes you think its disappearing?)

People stick with the Ps3 because they know the 360 is over prices, especially since XBL costs 50 bucks a year, making it endlessly more expensive than the Ps3. And the people who grew up with PS1 and PS2 stick with the Ps3 because of the games obviously. just like how people who liked Halo bought an xbox 360 for Halo 3.

You thank the PS3 for the success of the Xbox 360? Who are you? Bill Gates? You're not making any money off it anyway!

The PS3 hardware is a failure, over engineered and better suited to crunch raw numbers then to run good games. nobody can understand how to use it.

This is most likely the tip of what is possible on the PS3 in time. Just think when developers really learn a few more little tricks of how the system works.

It's funny how M$ and sony seem to have opposite business plans:

Sony: New Technology, Long System Life, Free Online Play, Minimum hardware failure.

M$: Old technology, short system Life, Charge for online play, RRoD.

Whats even funnier is that the 360 is still around. I was sure M$ would release a new console by now. That 2010 stuff is just BS to fool Sony (because nintendo isn't competing apparently).

Never before has gaming been so divided and so combative. It used to be that you could have two systems, and play all of the best games. At that time the industry was commited to gamers, and ensuring their enjoyment. Now, it's all about money and until Nintendo and Sony beat M$'s lights out, it's going to stay that way.

So instead I'd like to thank M$, for trying to kill gaming as art and a hobby. It's now just a business and nothing more.

This thread started with FAIL written all over it, and it will end with FAIL written all over it. That MGS4 AAAAE really stings doesn't it? Also the 360 (sadly) is falling into 3rd place month after month even with a "head start" over Sony? Thats a real shame.megaton3k

What's unfortunate is that you've mannaged to form several sentences, none adding even an ioda of relevant information to the thread. Thats the real shame...

totaly agree, but the point of my thread was to point out that Sony had every reason to squash MS out in this thread and in reality THEY helped strengthen them with their poor management of the ps3.

Well, I guess Sony could have done better, but at least gamers now have a choice of two superpowerful consoles instead of one. I would rather have a PS3 to be honest.....I like the idea of replaceable hard drives.

I gotta agree with both of you on your points. Things are getting better all the time on the PS3.

[QUOTE="SolidTy"]

Yeah, It was Sony's failures that helped Microsft more than anything Microsoft ever did.

Luckily, the END OF SONY threads have been replaced though, as now people realize Sony's not going anywhere.

Nedemis

Most now recognize that Sony is no longer the only force to beat. This gen is far better for the gamer then last generation was and the real battle will take place next gen when things really heat up.

Yep. It's always going to be better later. No offense, but that sounds like the Cow post-stress disorder mentality for this generation of consoles: keep looking towards the sunset & eventually, the console & games will arrive. Maybe another year or two. In the meantime, Xbox continues to succeed & continues its underminificaton of the Sorny juggarnaut that was so last gen.

MS did look better than the PS3 at Sony's launch due to some bad marketing moves, but now in the present the PS3 has alreay toppled the 360 off of its pedestal. The PS3 really is the underdog of this generation. It started off with a pretty bad launch, but now its on top...of the #2 spot, 'cause in the end the Wii is still kicking both Sony's and MS's ass.

Wow, I'm suprised at how low lemmings can go... Your thread is on par with Saolins Fable 2 hype threads, which is saying a lot, but his was funny, yours is just really sad... If you love your Xbox 360 right now.. Why aren't you playing it now? Unless its got RROD again( would be funny if it did) then why aren't you playing it?

Look at it this way.

Wii - Phenomenal Success
Xbox 360 - Quite successful in that its managed to keep with the pace for so long.
PS3 - Still something to prove coming off the back of a 120 mil install base

This is from a business perspective of course.

I remember the last time TC made a thread like this. I looked at his blog and he was RRODed. He said he was posting becuase he had nothing else to do as his 360 broke. It was so funny :lol:

At launch 360 was the machine to get, now ps3 is. Ps3 continues to improve, has a machine that is adaptable, the product and games are just exponentially better. Say what you want about Sony, they havent rested on their laurals, theyve made up the deficit and going forward look to be clearly positioned to succeed. Got nothing against 360, but Sony took their lumps and changed...slowly their weaknesses are becoming fewer.

I just laugh when people say they dont want a bluray or that wifi cant handle gaming or take issue with free online gaming that isnt better than something that costs $50 a year. I dont need air conditioning in my car, but its nice to have some days.

No, TC, you have it all wrong. You need to go back further, son.

You shopuld thanl MS and their crappy deal on hardware last gen. You should thank MS for ditching the XBOX and running into this gen. You should thank MS for beating everyone else to the punch and starting the false hype.

Coming in early got them early adopters without competition. The early adopters got dev and studio attention. The dev and studio attention got 360 its titles.

But you also got shafted on the xbox. And you've got one of the worst reliability rates of any console, ever.

No, don't thank Sony. It goes back to MS flunked hardware deal last gen.

Im trying to navigate your broken english... I think you don't like Microsoft but I can't really tell... As stated in my original post, RROD has been a problem. The point was that much of Microsofts staying power and competetiveness this generation is due large in part to the fact that Sony has worked so hard at bringing the Playstation name down many rungs on the ladder. Is that fanboyism or truth?
