no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, and well...nopeople need to be able to spot sarcasm[QUOTE="heretrix"]I love this. It's as if Sony fanboys never bashed the 360 before the PS3 came out. Lol.
You guys should be embarrased with this nonsense. The PS3 isn't being bashed because of jealousy, it's getting bashed because it's exactly what happened to them when the 360 launched. The only difference is the 360 isn't the utter failure that the cows thought it would be. Not that the PS3 is a total failure, but it isn't the success the PS1 or PS2 were.

Cows have short-term memories (though to be fair, many of these Cows weren't around in 2005. most of them died in the Great Cow Slaughter of 2006).True. Hardly any of the cows that were around at that time are here anymore, but it's amazing how many seem to believe that what's happening is just because the lems are jealous.And the E3 of 2006 was an amazing moment. I have never witnessed fail on that scale in all my years of gaming. After all of the bragging, I really don't blame the cows for leaving. Sony let them down completely.
Leave them, after losing ' 08 sales is the only thing they have left to play (untill RROD of course)knight-kOnly thing left to play? You mean besides exclusives like Gears 2 and all the superior multiplats?

And lets not forget the capper: The price reveal. Oh my god. The internets went crazy that night. Like I said, it was fail on an unprecedented scale. I have to give it to Sony though. A lesser company would not have survived that.

A lesser company probably wouldn't have done it, realizing it would be suicide, and essentially sacrificing their most powerful brand name to a media format... The biggest thing about Sony leading into this gen was their ego. They'll probably be a better company fo the humility this gen's smack in the face will teach them.
It really was starting to get boring around this place when PS3 was dominating Xbox 360 for the first 8 or so months this year. I like competition. It keeps things interesting.jakaraiThat's an interesting way of phrasing "when the PS3 finally got some games."
It really was starting to get boring around this place when PS3 was dominating Xbox 360 for the first 8 or so months this year. I like competition. It keeps things interesting.jakaraiYou could hardly call being millions behind dominating anything. The PS3 has always been in third place and will probably finish this gen in that position. Quoting worldwide figures and omitting the fact that overall it's ALWAYS been behind is deceptive at the best and delusional at worst. Don't tell me about sales figures in Madagascar when in total sales it's millions behind.
Microsoft is playing sales because that's all they have for 2008. Game-wise or as for gamers, the PS3 has won 2008. It had more AAAAE and AAAE exclusives. What else do you want them to say? That the 360 has 1 AAAE game this year?MaximumDWell, here's the thing... 2007 we heard many Cows claim that the PS3 had games then, and it was a good system to own when it had zero AAAE's and a few AAE's. Now, Cows are claiming that Lemmings are "playing sales" and that "that's all they have"... When in reality the 360 has a AAAE this year and a good lineup of AAE's, along with a host of excellent multiplats (some of which the PS3 won't see).
Is this an admission that, yes, the PS3 was really not even close to worth owning its first two years, since PS3 06/07 were worse than 360 08, and apparently the 360's 08 is utter trash? Or are you guys going to concede that even if you ignored two years of better games, the 360 still has a very solid lineup for 08?

What is this, 2006 flashback? Seriously, that's just silly.
Why come to System Wars if you afraid of hearing bad thing about a plastic console? There is a PS3 forum also. Lookthe truth is the PS3 and Sony as a company are in bad shape. rybe1025
The console isn't made of plastic, it's made of electronic components. I mean, if it was made of plastic, it wouldn't do an awful lot.
2007 was PS3's 2nd year, and the XBox 360 was on it's 3rd. 2008 XBox is on it's 4th year now and the only AAAE it has is GeOW2. I don't see how they can argue that 2008 is better unless they bring up sales. I hope you get the point.MaximumDHow many AAE's came out on each system? That's a factor, unless you plan to play one or two games for the entire year.

Sure, sure, hollar about me using the sales, but I have ALWAYS stood by that principle. If you dont have the big sales (And the 360 has got them in spades) you got..... nuttin.

Thats all that matters!" while you are caught in a hurricane and taking water fast, while the "less pretty" ship is safely docked, and the sailors are at home eating a warm meal.
like really the system has sold 18mill units, so why do people still call it a fail. Also every time a 360 fan throws sales at the ps3 fans why don't they ever say '' our system has had a one year head start.'' i have all three and i love them but i do play my ps3 the most.hellsing6666666Wow, you play your PS3 the most of the 3 consoles? WoW! That means ps3 is number one in the world! oh wait, ... no it doesnt. Yeah according to sales and game attach rates, the PS3 was commonly bought as a bluray player for movies, and games second. 360 has games set as FIRST priority, and it shows in the sales. That's why PS3 is in last place, not to mention the falling sales numbers. The gap is increasing now, not decreasing like it was earlier this year. PS3 is sinking, abandon ship, abandon ship!

That's a factor, unless you plan to play one or two games for the entire year. I counted that the 360 has 1 AAAE and 5 AAE. As for the PS3, 1 AAAAE, 2 AAAE, and 2 AAE. It is obvious that the PS3 is the winner here, a better console choice for this year, and that it had a better year than the 360 did. You are just argueing because you are mad that the PS3 is better this year. Remove your fanboy goggles and you can see clearer that it is not just 1 or 2 games for the entire year on the PS3.

But on System Wars everyone plays with whatever they can, no matter how miniscule. Sales are constantly used to a state of repition though. "We won because we have better sales." It really dosn't add up. It's never really about what actually matters around here, infact when people go off on tangents like sales and such this place gets very dull. It stops being about games and the systems themselves, and it all just becomes one big badly structured spreadsheet. Do we seriously have nothing else to talk about, like you know, how about the new God of War 3 trailer? PS3 fans say it has nice animation, Xbox 360 fans say terrible last gen graphics. Anything is better than this bore.

Not really, I mean it's not as if the people with PS3 consoles are stressing out right now. It's Sony that's out at sea in the storm, not it's fans, who are quite hapily enjoying the spoils of coast line superiority.

I'm sorry but not every game needs a sequel. Sometimes sequels kills the quality of a great game's reputation. Okami was a great game and I'm fine with no sequels on that since it will be part of my memory of a great game forever. Releasing a sequel might ruin the overall quality of a franchise. It could also be the other way around, selling more does not equal to a great game either. Pokemon, Yugioh, WiiSports sold many but does that mean we all want sequels to those great games?
