[QUOTE="Nike_Air"] " lol, I have a right...I bought the darn thing. As far as being naive and not believing the hype, well, I guess there's another 3 million people just as naive as me. Or maybe they all thought they could trust a company with standards as high as that of an international mega-power like Sony....you know, that would make sense right? "
That makes no sense.Most people have reallistic expectations and they understand at this point what hype trailers from companies are supposed to do like Killzone , Motorstorm , Halo 3 , Madden 06 , etc. Informed people play the demos at stores , they look at gameplay footage , they read previews and reviews , and they learn about the features of the game first. They wait until there are enough games for them before buying. There is no excuse for this complaining. I am just telling you this because it makes you look like an uninformed newbie (no disrespect). I just can't imagine someone paying all that money on a ps3 right now without doing a little research first. Especially someone that already has a 360.
I mean I am very interested in the PS3 and I have the money right now to buy one right now yet I don't have one because it isn't quite mature yet. I don't even have a 360 yet either.
I mean you are even complaining about release dates for games getting pushed back. OMGWTFBBQ !!!!!!!!!!:lol:

And if you invested the type of money you need to for a PS3, you'd be pissed too. Look, bottomline is this:
I loved Sony, and like many, many others, I couldn't wait for the PS3. And you know what? For the first time in my gaming career (17 years now from what I remember as a little guy) I made a big mistake with a console.
I avoided Dreamcast, Gamecube, Sega Saturn, Sega CD, all in the realization at the time that they weren't worth my time, or parent's money (come on, I was young!). Now, I go off and buy the PS3 on my own, fully expecting it to deliver the way Sony promised it to, and it sucks right out of the gate.
There is every bit the potential for this system to get back on its own two feet. But ya know, delaying and delaying and delaying games isn't the way to do it. I'm mad cause I want Sony to do well, but my 360 just owns this thing and gives me no reason to play the PS3. Heck, Sony gives me no reason to play it.
You were smart waiting on it. I and 3 million other people were not. Why defend the system if you don't own it? No offense dude, but unless you own this thing, your replies to my venting mean nothing to me cause I'm trying more or less to get at those who have bought the PS3. Most agree with me that it's getting ridiculous. Some don't and hate me for it. Bashing my posts when you don't even own the system is kinda dumb right? Come back and tell me to stop complaining once you own a PS3. And when you do, it probably will have some good games cause you waited and by then I won't be complaining too much. Maybe the year 2008?....maybe.....so congratulations.
The ps1 and ps2 were not very good out of the gate either. If Resistance or Motorstorm were not 2 reasons to own it right now then you should stop crying. You made that decision. It usually takes time for all consoles to get good. The reason why it is easily defendable is because it is only a 5 months old and from experience consoles usually take almost a year to get good. You should understand by now that Sony still supports the last console even when the new one is about to hit as well so it will take them a little more time than the other consoles(which surprisingly aren't that much better at the 5 month point). And you seriously think that 3 million other people feel the same way you do about the ps3 right now ? Just because you think Motorstorm is a joke and Resistance is boring doesn't mean jack squat right now.
I don't own the system yet , but I have played it a bunch. It seems fine to me this early overall but I am waiting until there are about 5 games out that I really really want to play because that is the smart thing to do. ;)Â
