PS3: Bad sales, bad games, not enough exclusives. Sony's losing it.

Man, it seems that the PS3 is horribly over priced and sucks as a gaming system. I remember playing at my friends house playing Resistance and it was just like a WWII games just wih aliens. Even the graphics weren't very good. That was suposed to be the PS3's great launch game!? And then he put in the blu-ray disk. It really does suck when you don't have a tv that doesn't support blu-ray. I lost it for the PS3. Now I'm hearing that HAZE and MGS4 will be coming out for the 360 too, well one year after they release on the PS3. The whole home idea is also a horrible idea. How many people will actually go on that thing when they can be killing the Covenant or killing cops. Even if the was a Home for the 360, I wouldn't be on it or go on it. And then the one thing that blew me away that made me think Sony was desperate: FREE ONLINE SERVICE. Wow! I know Sony is scarred by losing the console war now. Now I hear the it has only sold 3 million consoles since it's horribly bad launch date.

So if I had bough it for 600 dollars, I would sell it on ebay for twice the amount and see if a sucker would buy it from me.

PS3: Play Beyond=PS3: Completely Stupid.

I will say that I do like the Wii. It is atleast fun.

You've managed to make the PS3 sound as if it's doing much worse than it really is.

Congratulations.

It is doing a lot worse than PS3 fanboys see what it really is.

I just think it's extremely fortunate for Sony that they strengthened their first and second party studios last gen and it's paying big time for them now.

Even if the PS3 struggles throughout all of this gen, I can see Sony getting by, by first party games. If it wasn't for them, I really think Sony would be in way more trouble than what they're now.

The price is bad and the sales are bad. But the console itself & thegames are far from bad. If you look at most of the most wanted games lists, they are dominated by PS3 titles, period. The PS3 has already put out some very awesome games... the only problem is that there isn't enough of them out yet. The only problem for fanboys is that this will no longer be a valid argument by the time this holiday season rolls around.

And you're asking how many ppl would use Home when they could be playing games... yet you're posting in a games forum when you could actually be playing games, so that's kind of stupid. The same type of ppl that visit online forums & chat rooms will love Home.

And all MGS games have been ported after their PS release... and not only have none of them been as good as the PS version, the PS console always gets an updated special edition version as well.

Bottom line, with the games coming out for the PS3 the only thing they need to turn sales around is a price cut. The system and its features have already proven to be impressive regardless of what fanboy propaganda you would like to spread.

It is doing a lot worse than PS3 fanboys see what it really is.

DuDisNow

Its doing a whole lot better than you seem to think as well. If you don't like the games, the price, or the online then thats fine. I don't like the 360s games, add ons to make it do what I want, and paying for its online, but I'm notmaking threads just to raise the ire of people who don't agree with me. oh and Sony didn't add free online in a desperation move, the PS2 had free online as well, PSN is just a big upgrade from what it was and had been planed for quite a while.

did i read your topic tilteright when you said it didn'thave enough exclusives?

Oh no, pictures! I'm so scared! :cry:

Arrogance can lead to one's downfall. Nintendo knows this all too well, and Sony is now experiencing it.joeblak

They would be pitted in a finance war with Microsoft, which we know they cannot win.

Well, it is not looking good. Consumers are spending hundreds of dollars on a bug-ridden OS (Vista). They could have at least waited for the inevitable service pack.

Nintendo should learn from their own mistakes. They've learned nothing in terms of modesty.

The ps3 has sold 5.5 million in alot less time than the 360even with a 200 buck difference. So how are the sales bad ??

The ps3 also has good games out now and even more coming. So how is the software bad??

The ps3 also has the best exclusives and the most proven ip's (rc.ff,mgs,gt5 ect) again no problem. The ps3 also has the best hardware only legit beef is with the price.

1) Constant Sales from month to month status have been under 200k. It has been ridiculed for 2 months because the gameboy SP has sold more than the PS3.

2) The software is bad because there is still no "must have" game that is out for the PS3 yet. Resistance is the PS3 only game to sell over 1 million copies! ITS BEEN 8 MONTHS

3) Best exclusives are you opinion. True the rating have been smiled upon by the gaming community but the majority of the money people make are from the casuals buying. The way things are going... MGS/FF/RC tend to go to the "hardcore" audience while Grand Turismo is known to many people.

If I wanted a super powerful hardware and wanted to pay $600, I would have just upgraded my PC.

I have a PS3, awaiting games, but the thread title, this late in the game of SW, made me post this:
