PS2 was a celebrity. The PS3 is the dorky offspring that will never live up to it's father's reputation.

Yeh right. :roll:

PS3 has surpassed PS2's reputation, infact PS2 was justa big seller.

The Xbox was the console of choice last Gen with games like Halo, Forza, Battlefield 2, Counter-Strike, Doom 3, PGR2, Etc

The original XBOX library was generally terrible, despite some gems.

Eh, TC. You think the PS3 is better than the PS2? Well, there's only one thing to say; Atrasta nal tunsha.

I'd take a Gamecube or a Ps2 over a P3 anyday.

I believe they were referring to your $300 PS3 comment, which does not have backwards compatibility with the PS2.

What is this thread anyways? Some kind of SW feeler. It's pathetic that TC states a simple opinion and a hundred people pile on. why is anyone recognising this thread as some sort of talking point. SW relax ignore this type of chatter and it will pass. Talk about fuel to the fire.

Yes. As far as I know, the current model of the PS3 does not support BC with the PS2. Does with the PS1, though, I believe.PannicAtack

And that's exactly why the PS3 isn't the best console ever.

A little.

Point?

If you dont play online your missing out on whatnew games are developed for, to play online.

Online gaming is whats PS3 is all about. One player games are still good but the real longevity is ONLINE.

Hah, that's certainly something I can disagree with.

How many online game servers did EA take down? I've got single player games from the late 1990s that still run fine.

The little things Xbox Live has, as well as Xfire; Cross game invites, Party chat, as well as custom in-game music. I would LOVE to see Sony put these on features on here. There is plenty more, but I don't have to patience to list them all.

But, yes, to just get online and play with friends, PSN is fine.

this is a personal opinion and highly subjective. I am glad you like your PS3.

I also think it is a good console but you have to realize that many others will have the same opionion about their 360 or Wii.

if you just want to have a talk with other PS3 fans why not do it on the PS3 board

The PS1 is the greatest. The PS3 is one of the worst (not including consoles that bombed like the Jaguar or 3DO)

Reasons:

The cell processor is hampered by an outdated graphics chip. Developers just aren't prepared to re-invent the wheel for this system.

It scratches discs regularly. With the 360 you can copy entire games onto the hard drive, the disc is only need to verify ownership. With the PS3, the Blu-Ray DVD is still being accessed after installation. I had to replace 2 games because of they got scratched inside the machine and cutscenes wouldn't load.

The GAMES. If you're an RPG fan the PS3 is a barren wasteland.At least the 360 has Mass Effect 1 & 2and Lost Odyssey.

Honestly this shows what is wrong with Playstation gamers, they have forgotten their heritage.

Despite the 360 being launched a year earlier the PS2 continued to receive significant support, even well past PS3's launch the PS2 received developer support.

You think it was popular for so long because of hardware performance? Maybe some sort of techy feature it had over the competition?

The PS2 had something the PS3 lacks, majority 3rd party support. Games, that's what makes a system popular. Sony was so focused on having higher performance figures and features than the competition they didn't take into account to make a system that would actually attract developer support.

Of the 210 A+ scoring PS3 games that GameSpot has reviewed; only 32 are exclusives. That's a dramatic shift compared to the PS2, yet even now people squabble over the PS3 being technically better, as if that matters.

No it doesn't. Steam has an absolutely HUGE library, and it's only growing. It ranges from new games like Mass Effect 2 and Bioshock 2 to old games like Doom and Fallout.

That's like saying you only watch "modern movies" or listen to "modern music." That's a very poor way to look at an art form.

No, no its not. Games are different becaus ethey are interactive and when you play the best games old games seem worse. I have no time forold games that are poor by todays standards.

Totally different to films and music....

Lame comparision matey.

That's like saying you only watch "modern movies" or listen to "modern music." That's a very poor way to look at an art form.PannicAtack

He's a consumer.

We are all consumers; but there are gamers and then there are consumers. Consumers buy into the whole disposable gaming culture, nothing is of long term value. It's just consumed, disposed of; and then they want the next big thing. Retail has built itself around this mentality, hence the encouraging of trading old games in for new.

Personally I keep hold of all my games, but backwards compatibility isn't a problem for me.

No. An old film might look technically worse than a new film, but that doesn't mean Transformers 2 is better than Rear Window. Great old games still play well today. That's why Starcraft is still on store shelves after ten years. Deus Ex is also an old game, but it's still highly esteemed, and I got it fairly recently, even though it's technically dated.
