They don't have any innovation

They don't have any money at this point

The Vita is gonna bomba

They can't possibly compete with Uber rich MS next generation if they last that long.

Sony is going to go the way of Sega.

A sad old clown... the children stopped laughing.

Why do you keep making troll threads about PS3 all the time? It's almost as bad as when I was making troll threads about xbox live, but those were funny this is just stupid.

Sony has more exlusives than xbox and almost as much as Nintendo, the PS3 plays all the multiplats and Sony put in Blu Ray which ended up winning the HD format war, something that MS and Nintendo regret thus that's why they are getting it in their next system. And they have a good free online service, yea same bag of tricks huh :roll:

[QUOTE="TheGuardian03"] Well Doolz (Lol) you sure don't know me in real life so if i were you i'd stop making assumptions about people i don't know.

TheGuardian03

You've got nearly 9,700 posts in less than a year. That's sad. Very sad, actually.

Also, you mad? You seem quite upset over what a couple of people think about you and your post count.

So replying to people makes me mad ? you started this by replying to me you're the mad here :lol:

you two replying to me shows that you are the one upset actually.

You're getting even more defensive now. Further showing all of us that you are indeed mad. You're obviously upset that someone called you out on how pathetic it is to have nearly 10k posts in less than a year.

Oh, and I did not initiate this conversation. You replied to a post I made to CanYouDigIt, thus, YOU were the one who started this conversation. So, using your "logic", you're the one that's mad.

This is hilarious.

He would have had to make just 40 posts a day which would only take about an hour and a half a day. An hour and a half on this site daily on average and he's pathetic?

An amount of time that, i'm sure you spend here daily and don't try to say otherwise. You don't have to post to lurk around right? ;)

The pot calling the kettle black, in other words.

You are the one being defensive here. i wasn't even replying to you, you started this but no you bothered enough to reply to that guys post, you care how many posts i have ? pathetic.

Its pathetic that you are arguing with me over my post count and it seems you cared enough to reply over and over it shows how mad you are here pal.

Check my edit, dumbass. Like I said, YOU replied to me first, so using your "logic" of "you started this by replying to me you're the mad here", that would mean you are mad, since, you know, you replied to me first. :lol:

Time to come up with another excuse in this sad attempt to defend yourself. Or, you could just give up. This is very amusing, though, so feel free to keep replying.

Not really. I'm not the one with nearly 10k posts in less than a year. I barely post here, and spend an hour at most here per day. I've gone weeks, sometimes months without visiting this site.

How so TC? Im primarily a PC gamer, but I never underestimate, nor take the skills and abilities of other platforms lightly.

Sony did bring us just about the most alien technology weve see nt his gen. It cost them dearly, but for what they did, they have to be respected.

It helps that they have made this gens best "core" exclusives of any console.

It is not that they are a tired old man, but rather the world changes quickly, and what we begin to see, is the limits of closed platforms.

I have no doubt that Sony will Put up something interresting again next gen, them and Nintendo seems to be the best bets at this point. (As far sa consoles are conscerned) I would hate to see it die out, or crash.

That said, I do think handhelds are on thier way out (or rather to be integrated in mobiles, so not as much dying as morphing).

MS is pretty much just piggybagging off the PC as a whole ,and while a fine console, it is NOT beneficial to just copy PC when you are sub par nomatter how you look at it.

When all is said and done, what we need is more diversity, NOT more streamlinig, and MS have proven time and time again, that they certainly ain't up for that task. Not on PC, Nor console. They are playing it safe, which is fine and well, aslong as someone else is pushing limits, and of all platforms, the 360 seems to push the least overall limits, while restricting players. That is a future that is the worst case scenario for all gamers.

Yeah, good for you.

You post on a site called system wars, calling somebody else out for doing the same thing. It's hypocritical and you're also insulting yourself.

You tried to make it out like he lives on this site and I pointed out it wouldn't take much time to get that post count.

But who started it ?

You did. You replied to me initially, not the other way around. One thing you seem to be forgetting (or simply choosing to ignore) is that I did not direct the first message I posted in this thread at you. Yet you insist that I started the conversation.

:lol:

I wouldn't have posted in this thread again had you not replied to me.

Well the mods are certainly taking their time banning you.

First some PC bashing (where you get rightfully pwned), now you've moved on to PS3 without any more success?

...yet they continue to release great, highly polished games. As a gamer, that is all I care about. If Sony one day ceases to release another console, well then there's always other choices.

But who started it ? you did you dumbass :lol: you talked about my post count first when you replied to that guy. someone is mad here :lol: try harder.

And this all started because you insulted someone by saying he is a sad person that spends all his time being a whiner on forums because you were butthurt that he said something about the PS3. So I just pointed out how you in no position to say anything. A rough average you do 32+ posts per day judging by your post count and time you have been a member. Dude seriously go outside and see this crazy thing we call the sun because I am guessing you have not seen it in a long time.

If it were so, the PS3 would've bypassed the Wii & 360 by now in console sales. And 3rd party developers are still developing games for 360.

If it were so, the PS3 would've bypassed the Wii & 360 by now in console sales. And 3rd party developers are still developing games for 360.

What truth? More sales babble? I thought sheep were worst this gen.

And you along with most of the lems (and sheep) can't seem to handle the fact 3rd & 1st party support are NOT letting up on the Sony bandwagon, whether fanboys like it or not. No matter what facts you give, it currently doesn't change developers' willingness to support Sony's 3rd and "dead" last place platform. The only uncompromising platform really, that's viable for the core gaming market. I know you lems are butt hurt and angered by this now that your 360 has become a wannabe "new Wii", but sorry to break it to you. That's reality :)

I don't care if Sony's 1st and 2nd party games doesn't appeal to the majority of gamers. That has absolutely no bearing as to how I (and probably most PS3 owners) personally enjoy video games. I'm willing to invest on an exclusive Sony game, if the game interests me, regardless of sales or a critic's review. That's almost like arguing with a blithering idiot sales & hype obssessed Hip-Hopper. I love Rock music in various forms, and suddenly he goes, "yo son, Rock iz dead, nah meen? Dat's sheet iz whack, nobody iz listening to Rock, nah mean?" Yet Rock is very very much alive even without the B.S. Billboard, VMA, MTV, Vevo hype and mainstream appeal.

As for the last part, multiplat 3rd party games is pretty much what the 360 only has these days. Not that it's a bad thing. But it clearly shows where MS is heading, also not a bad thing.

Are you kidding me? Microsoft is the one that is lacking innovation. Just for some odd reason people are still buying 360's even though they barely have any good exclusives. Games like Call of Duty which is a MULTIPLAT are pushing sales for the 360.

I know you lems are butt hurt and angered by this now that your 360 has become a wannabe "new Wii", but sorry to break it to you. That's reality :)KingsofQueens

3rd party developers are only "supporting" & "not letting up on the PS3 bandwagon" because the Wii wasn't very powerful enough to handle certain games like PS3 & 360 could. If it were, I don't think that you would still be able to say that right now, as the Wii would be having about 90% of 3rd party support due to the higher install base, just like with PS1 & the PS2 having 90% of the 3rd party marketshare due to the very high install base. Right now, there's 3rd party developers that are showing a lot of love to Wii U, & you can bet that it'll have tons of 3rd party games.

Plus "casuals" outweigh far more than "hardcores" combined. That's the reason why PS1, PS2, & the Wii were very successful. Plus MS isn't the only one trying to become a "wannabe new Wii" here. Sony might go that route for PS4. Only reason why Sony didn't go "too casual" with the PS3 was because that PS Move wasn't hugely successful like Kinect was, especially in advertisement.

3rd party developers are only "supporting" & "not letting up on the PS3 bandwagon" because the Wii wasn't very powerful enough to handle certain games like PS3 & 360 could. True, but that's not the core reason. Nintendo themselves went the Blue Ocean approach simply because they couldn't afford to compete with Sony and MS in the High Definition core gaming market. They wanted to tap the NON-GAMING casual market with a risk. That risk payed off very well for the company and to some extent, the industry.

If it were, I don't think that you would still be able to say that right now, as the Wii would be having about 90% of 3rd party support due to the higher install base, And that's not the case right now. Let's get back to reality

just like with PS1 & the PS2 having 90% of the 3rd party marketshare due to the very high install base. The difference between PS1 & PS2 vs Wii install base is like Night and Day. PS1 and PS2 were really aimed at Gaming Casuals, those that know some trend in gaming and have actually held a controller. For example Madden and NHL players. Also the DVD player in the PS2 played a key role. The Wii install base is massive more so than PS1 & PS2 because the main target market are NON-GAMING casuals. People who have never ever hold a controller in thier lives and don't keep up with gaming trends. Also, because of PS1's success with 3rd party developers, this was carried over with the PS2. And gamers relate 3rd party games with PS brand.

Right now, there's 3rd party developers that are showing a lot of love to Wii U, & you can bet that it'll have tons of 3rd party games.

That's yet to be seen. And very unlikely. Not when there are 2 major consoles targeting that same core market. Nintendo still has that "nobody plays 3rd party games on Nintendo console" stigma. If they couldn't redeem themselves with GC or Wii, what makes you think they'll redeem 3rd party games with WiiU? Another factor is Nintendo's family image and their Q/A method in screening games that goes on thier system. Believe it or not, unlike Sony or MS, who give developers the "freedom" to do whatever the hell on thier games, Nintendo higher ups still have the say so on what certain games goes on thier system. Even when the ESRB rating systems being in place for 17 years. If you were old enough to remember, this method has been practice by Nintendo since the NES days. Another factor is Nintendo would need to prove to developers thier tablet controller is convincing enough to develop unique games for. We've seen this with Wii remote, and look what happend. LoZSS and very few games built successfully around the Wii remote were made. By this time, the Wii remote should have set some practical standard on how games should be played. But it didn't. At the end, what we know for sure is that Motion Sensing does have some limits and works very well on some specific genres.

Plus "casuals" outweigh far more than "hardcores" combined. That's the reason why PS1, PS2, & the Wii were very successful. Again read above regarding PS1 & PS2 vs Wii install base being different like night and day. Plus MS isn't the only one trying to become a "wannabe new Wii" here. Sony might go that route for PS4. Only reason why Sony didn't go "too casual" with the PS3 was because that PS Move wasn't hugely successful like Kinect was, especially in advertisement. PS Move is currently successful. Not in the level of Kinect, but certainly successful. Otherwise Sony would have pulled the plug on the Move much much sooner. Kinect has found a new audience simply because for obvious reason, it's method of interraction is quite different than the Move and Wiimote, both being very similar.

I just don't get MS fanboys. You are getting no support, very few exclusives and a bunch of kinect games yet you bag Sony - the only company supporting the development of GAMES!! games that we, as gamers are supposed to enjoy! Your blind fanboyism sickens me. joel_c17
I enjoy plenty of games by just playing PC or 360. I have had a ps3 for the past couple years and I barely turn it on except for a movie every now and then. There's nothing blind about my beliefs because a majority of the exclusive games just do not interest me. You on the other hand, are pretty much saying "hey guys, Sony is making games and no one likes them, but please love my ps3 anyway :cry:"

Don't distort what he's saying. If anything you have been just as bad as any other lemming in this thread including the nut job who made this thread and continues to make like 26 Sony threads a day lol You don't like the PS3, so what, many gamers in the real world do I can share my personal experience too. I got a 360 for Christmas. The next day it went straight to my closest and stood there for months collecting dust

I'm not distorting anything. In fact, you essentially tried to reinforce his post by saying: "You don't like the PS3, so what, many gamers in the real world do", while defending a guy criticizing people for owning a 360.That just proves my point.

So I guess you're as bad as any other cow in this thread.

Right now Sony is the only console company that's still bringing it.

Wii tapped out

360 tapped out

Sony is all that's left that still producing the fresh IP's.

As opposed to the clown that has no tricks of it's own, won't do half of it's act unless you keep paying it and is likely to suffer a heart attack in the middle of it's show anyways?

It's hard to remain serious when you see such a stupid topic.

You do realize that the PS3 has the most impressive list of exclusive games and still going strong? Don't really see gamers complaining.
