Sony should have just made their controller heavier or put fans in it or something. I hate how light it is.

The sixaxis is a totally useless feature for Sony. With or Without it, they'd be in the same situation as now, except they would have saved money by not including it.

everyone shares ideas from each other. if we didn't we would never improve. One could even argue Nintendo stole the motion control idea from the sony Eyetoy as they are very similar in idea.

Obviously you're an XBOX 360 fanboy. Rumble is in the 360. Same with DVD (last-gen), Analog, D-Pad, etc.

Where do you get this that SIXAXIS controls suck? Because Jeff can't use them while playing Warhawk? The other guy can't use them while playing Lair? Great. I can use them just fine, and they really make MotorStorm matches very fun. In fact, I get really good places in MotorStorm because I learned how to use them properly. They're not Wiimote controls where you wave your controller wherever you want. Dualshock 3 will also have Rumble + SIXAXIS. Nice combo if you ask me. Don't get the "shafted" argument because I've seen 360 owners get shafted a lot. RROD, HDMI, etc.

Xbox360 and PS3 come HD ready with no hassle, but how come we never hear of PC doing 1080p or even 720 or 480 anything?

dude get over it having rumble is better then having sixaxis, ask most ps3 owners which one would they rather have and the majority will say they would rather have rumble back.

you obviously have no clue whatever how MS came to power. They did it just skirting the law as I am sure quite a few of the major companies do.

just come up with one thing, sony. please, come up with one thing that positively influenced the gaming industry in terms of innovation. Apply one "previously discovered or modified technology" into the gaming world. Oh, wait.....crap...you can't....well, basically any other company that competed with you took all the initial risks and proved it was profitable to begin with.....oh, man....sony, one thing to say: it was a joke you ever made it in this industry. the fact you have been so succesful was all based on circumstance. say what you want about nintendo but they have influenced the industry into what it is today, for better or for worse, but much for the better. I have always thoroughly thoroughly distrused Sony's entire validity in the video gam market. They made one smart decision: to make cds the medium for PSX. From there they just copied and chose what to do from there. It has all culminated with the ps3. It is a a "mega-machine" with absolutely no vision, no idea of knowing on how to apply any sort f unique concept, and an absolute package of many features that individually sort of seem impressive but collectively equal nothing.

oh, so its ok to steal something, as long as your not the first one to steal it:roll:

system wars logic at its best, face it, if sony stole all that stuff, then so did microsfot and many other companys, get over it, its fact.

well, regardless if ms or sony stole whatever, consider this: who innovated EVERYTHING...? who made any sort of previously invented technology in gaming accessible and/or appilied it to to actual gaming? NOT MS or Sony... it was Nintendo and Sega. Whats the difference? Two companies completely devoted to the video game industry (Nin and Sega), and two huge conglomerates whose influences and motivations are broader and more diverse than either of the previous two in regards to gaming.

didnt MS have rumble in the sidewinders and motion sensing well before the wii and ps3?
