LOL lemming 360 is at the same situation as PS3 and maybe even worse all games are multiplats even its exclusives got superior versions on PC while PS3 can play all the multiplats available on 360 with minimum difference ( not like the difference between PC and 360 ) and PS3 got superior great exclusives which is not available on any other console the only thing making 360 looks better than PS3 now is the 1 year headstart just give PS3 another year then you will see.

But the PS3 has MGS4. That more than compensates for a weak system, high price, and inferior game library. Dead serious.

Nah thanks, everyone has seen how this goes a million times.

Backpedaling. That's what I thought ;)

How is that backpedaling mate? If I see someone with a low level account, low post number and they start a thread, I make an automatic assumption on their credibility, especially if their thread is a 'rant' based thread and lets face it, you are ranting. Everyone knows Sony has lost market share, you don't need to create a new thread and put 'FACT' on the end of each sentence. :lol:

what he is trying to say (although indirectly) is that you could be just flame baiting, as you are such a low level and a lot of trolls tend to have around 10 low level accounbts, dont worry though (if you really arent a troll) all n00bs get treated like this, I did when I first joined. Once you build up your levels, friends and post count youll get a lot more respect around here :D

Unfortunately that doesnt change the fact that everything I said was true. Prove me otherwise.

Here we go... The PS3 didn't loose games, only the 360 got more. The original Xbox had nothing but the PS2 literally had almost everything worth playing. While facts are nice they can be spun in any direction. I love my PS3 but I don't give a rat's @$$ about their market share. I feel bad for the guys getting layoffs but really no one should care about their well being other than CEOs.

yes, even with portable consoles they are in dead last.

If you count both PSP and PS3 as this gen consoles the sales together for those two are much higher than for the Xbox 360. Also, look back one year and you'll see that the Xbox 360 had less sales then than the PS3 has now. And with the one year behind disadvantage that means PS3 is doing pretty well actually.

no actually it doesnt, 360 has had higher sales then PS3 all years, (counting in america that is.)

also with that argument if you r gonna count PS3 with PSP then you gotta count 360 with PC also which then, once again it is pwning them in sales :|

no, he said that you should count PS3 with PSP sales, since they are both sony so I said you might as well count gaming PC sales with 360 sales too then since they are both microsoft. and I said in america since that is where I base the majority of my numbers from as we are the largest market for both of those systems, but even world wide then MS is beating Sony in sales.

Backpedaling. That's what I thought ;)JLF1



One could argue that MS's 360 games also consists of 98% multiplats and the majority of them are poorer version of the superior PC versions.
The 360 have also lost a lot of high quality exclusives this gen like Mass Effect, Viva Pinata and Gear of War.

They are also in a bad place compared to Nintendo as a market-leader.


Do you also think MS should give up on the 360?

MS has gained Marketshare this gen

Those Multiplats you listed didn't go to the PS3 or Wii, they stayed with MS platforms.

but... nice try. and the TC is right about everything he said.... the "FACTS" he listed cannot be disputed, which is why we have so many people trying to talk about everything except the content of the OP.

facepalm, you people are trying to make me out as a biased fanboy, this is not the case, I was trying to make a point that the PSPs sales should not be counted along with PS3s success as it is a different console, and since the PC has almost always been called...you know what theres no point, I am also done with this thread.

I wouldn't say they were the Champ, but they aren't the Chump either. I think they could be doing better, but they aren't doing that bad either. I actually thinkwe are about to see a big increase in PS3 sales doing the later part of this year, especially with the exclusives they have coming. I think they were smart not to drop the price and for what you get out of the box it is a really good deal. Blu-ray, built in wireless, reliable hardware, and free online are well worth the $$.

Yeah Sony made a few, well, a lot of mistakes but this gen is far from over. They may very well surprise us. They are already working hard to produce quality games and to release heavy hitters like GoW that will influence the market and the PS3 is selling infact its selling pretty well worldwide, I think that when Sony comes up with a way to make that 100$ price cut to happen that they will be sitting pretty. Probobly still in last but they should at least be generating some decent profit much like the Gamecube last gen so they will be ready to hit the Xbox hard again next gen.

Let's look at all the things Sony has lost this gen. This is not opinion, it's fact. 1. Most of their marketshare: FACT 2. Billions of dollars: FACT 3. Nearly all of their third party exclusive franchises: FACT 4. Their place as the industry leader: FACT 5. Their lead in total AAA and AA reviewed games: FACT Let's face it, the only thing PS3 has going for it are Sony's first party titles, but the problem is 98% of the games on the console are multiplat, and for the most part they are inferior on the PS3. So basically 98% of your gaming on the PS3 is second rate. Even franchises like Metal Gear, which were thought to be exclusive to PS3 are coming to the 360, and sales of Sony's first party title sales have been underwhelming to say the least. Sony is a weak company at this point. They are losing money hand over fist. Even their waggle wand shown at E3 seemed like a joke, an afterthought cheap knockoff item coming as a last desperate effort from a company that has been brought to it's knees this generation by its peers. Proof that Sony no longer has the power to compete.lionsnakes

Remind me what franchises they lost besides tekken?

Just off the top of my head DMC - GTA (was exclusive on PS2 for nearly two years), - Assassin's Creed - Again, Newsweek revealed that Ubisoft had actually gone to Sony with an offer to make the game a PlayStation 3 exclusive. Although Sony did go through the trouble of asking Ubisoft to make it seem as if their multiplatform action game Assassin's Creed was indeed PS3 exclusive , it came out shortly after E3 that it would ship simultaneously on both platforms. - Final Fantasy - Metal Gear - Silent Hill - Virtua Fighter 5 - Ace Combat - Fatal Inertia - Beautiful Katamari

Even franchises like Metal Gear, which were thought to be exclusive to PS3 are coming to the 360, and sales of Sony's first party title sales have been underwhelming to say the least. Sony is a weak company at this point. They are losing money hand over fist. Even their waggle wand shown at E3 seemed like a joke, an afterthought cheap knockoff item coming as a last desperate effort from a company that has been brought to it's knees this generation by its peers. Proof that Sony no longer has the power to compete.coltsfan4ever

Does all that affect my enjoyment I get from the PS3? No it doesn't. Imo it is the best system this gen.

imo doesnt mean much on this board

If I have listed facts that you cannot refute, how does my credibility even come into question? You said in your first post that I gave an opinion based rant but that couldn't be further from the truth as all I stated were facts. Seems to me like you're just grasping at straws.lionsnakes
from a strictly business perspective, you are correct. however, when do sales = quality? the dreamcast was a financial disaster, and it had some fantastic games.

actually, in the console race, sony is currently dead last.

as a video game company, Microsoft is dead last

how do you figure? in quantitative sales terms, no it is not.

PS2 had the most A's, AA's and AAA's by far in terms of home consoles, this generation, however, the 360 has more. So Sony has fallen behind in terms of games as well.

[QUOTE="lionsnakes"]Let's look at all the things Sony has lost this gen. This is not opinion, it's fact. 1. Most of their marketshare: FACT 2. Billions of dollars: FACT 3. Nearly all of their third party exclusive franchises: FACT 4. Their place as the industry leader: FACT 5. Their lead in total AAA and AA reviewed games: FACT Let's face it, the only thing PS3 has going for it are Sony's first party titles, but the problem is 98% of the games on the console are multiplat, and for the most part they are inferior on the PS3.

Remind me what franchises they lost besides tekken?

Just off the top of my head DMC - GTA (was exclusive on PS2 for nearly two years), - Assassin's Creed - Again, Newsweek revealed that Ubisoft had actually gone to Sony with an offer to make the game a PlayStation 3 exclusive. Although Sony did go through the trouble of asking Ubisoft to make it seem as if their multiplatform action game Assassin's Creed was indeed PS3 exclusive , it came out shortly after E3 that it would ship simultaneously on both platforms. - Final Fantasy - Metal Gear - Silent Hill - Virtua Fighter 5 - Ace Combat - Fatal Inertia - Beautiful Katamari

Besides beautiful katamari/ IDK about fatal inertia/ace combat and VF5 non of those other games were exclusive.


DMC 3 Was on PC

GTA:VC went to PC

AC I want a link for that. Big Link

Silent hill 2 went to PC and XBOX before this gen

Final fantasy PS2 only had two exclusive games. Whats the big whoop?

Metal Gear was never an Exclusive franchise either. You should really research.

certainly, but going by this chart: http://spreadsheets.google.com/pub?key=pc5oLqpenpT78W87pMfgvBA&gid=3 the PS3 is behind by much less than you would have people believe. in fact, its tied in AAAe.

Ya but I just read the article over at IGN sony never touted it as a PS3 exclusive. and funny thats the same exact list you used in your OP, I want the Newsweek article "Ubisoft initially let on." thats what it says in the IGN article

Yet you still cant explain the other games that went Multiplat last gen. Your using almost 5-6 years ago as ownage?

because they still apply. Sony has fallen behind in terms of games too. So your 'playing sales' line has just been discarded in favor of reality.

i don't understand then, why you disregarded my chart of A, AA, and AAA statements by system here: http://spreadsheets.google.com/pub?key=pc5oLqpenpT78W87pMfgvBA&gid=3 it demonstrates a legitimate argument against your previous quality argument. PS3 and 360 are tied in AAAe.

Counting only exclusives and AAAe is fanboy logic. As a gamer I want the console with the most good games period. PS2 was WAY AHEAD in terms of everything last gen, and the very fact that those defending the PS3 have to resort to things like "PS3 is almost equal in AAAe" just goes to show how much Sony has gone backwards with the PS3 vs. where they were with PS2.

Well that information wasn't that awful. I thought you were going to say that Sony was going to stop supporting the PS or something. I can deal with that stuff. I guess you as an established economist will tell us that Sony is a failing company due to a slow start which the company anticipated?

it also shares almost all of the multiplats with the 360. honestly, i don't really understand the point of this thread other than bashing the PS3.
