Price?

Blue-ray?

Backward Compatability?

Games?

So far it seems like they totally missed the mark on a lot of things.  I'm sure in about a year or so they will get in line but man that's a bad way to get thigns started.

Well for one its got every1 talking about it...even so called "lemmings" and "sheep"

Who in fact spend more time discussing Ps3's 'failure' (mere months from launch) and less time discussing the attraction of their own respective systems! :?

Sony got the pre-launch PS3 hype right.  Man, that hype was fever-pitch.

Price? The price doesn't bother me

Blue-ray? I love the Blu-Ray

Backward Compatability? Works flawlessly.

Games? Loving Resistance, VF5, Marvel, and Fight Night

So far it seems like they totally missed the mark on a lot of things. I'm sure in about a year or so they will get in line but man that's a bad way to get thigns started.

Backward compatability? I don't see the problem with that. It started out with almost full BC already, and almost immediately issued a firmware update to address the majority of the other issues anyway. If you're going on about the European PS3s, well hm. Wasn't the arguement for the 360 "I'm going to be too busy playing all my shiny 360 games to worry about regular Xbox games"? I guess the arguement doesn't carry over to Sony then, because they're just evil. Oh wait... they're going to have firmware updates also, since they're using software emulation in those PS3s.

One thing that it has done right? Shoot future European PS3 adopters in the foot by not giving them the emotion engine. Err oh wait, well I can't think of anything that it has done right at this time. :(

I'm still going to be purchasing one in the near future, but right now I just don't see the point.

Agreed. I think the standard HDDs has been the best, and probably the one good, thing that Sony has done so far.

free online gameplay(u shoudl be paying for pointless features not online game play)
and why would blu ray be considered a bad thing?

best bang for the buck when compared to the 360
of course the 360 gives u OPTIONS but at a huge cost

What is the big deal really , 8.6 is great right ? You gave Kameo a perfect 10.0 and in many cows' eyes Resistance is a fantastic game .

How about "no 3 rings of death type of problems" or "no external but internal power brick" How about a "Blu-ray player" that will most probably be the standad next-gen movie video disk? User replaceble Hard drive? 97% backwards compatibility (sorry for the europeans, but software emulation may be even better after a while).

In my eyes, the only reason Xbox360 games got perfect scores when it first launched is because they were the first freaking "next-gen" games of 2005... Now they're comparing Ps3s first launch titles to ones that have been out for months on the Xbox360..I

Yeah, and I'm pretty sure 'their stay' isn't wholly dependant on them coasting on launch titles, or we'd pretty much have no consoles period.

It's still selling to the dismay of those who are anti-sony.DementedDragon

its still selling less than the PS2, DS, WII, and 360 to the dismay of everyone who doesn't have a soul.

the only thing the PS3 has gotten right is catching on fire, sucking up lint, spare change, dollar bills, and your dignity from your wallet, and having one good game to play on it the first three months and 20 less available new games to buy.

PS3:(Games that have gotten good scores) Resistance (8.5-9.0), Call of Duty 3 (8), Fight Night (two of which were already out for the 360)

Wii: Zelda:TP( 9.5-10, that 8.8 was a serious joke), Red Steel (8.5 play magazine), WarioWare (9.1 GS), Sonic (7.6 GS, 8.6 GS subscribers), SSX Blur (8.2 Gametrailers), Madden 07 (8), Rayman (8.5 across the board)

plus the Wii doesn't have Gundam:Crossfire. That game is cancer to a console.

Blu-Ray is worth the price alone and it is considered one of the best if not the best player on the market so chalk 1 thing right for Sony. Oh and the online works so make that 2 things for sony. Free GTHD game, I consider that right. Why bash PS3, If you dont want it, dont buy it. But get over it already. I own both and they are both great systems.
