Be realistic, we all know Sony are slow starters. Their previous platforms were not exactly instant successes either. We also know that console wars are not determined in the early stages, take a look at the 16-bit era, the SNES snatched victory barely in '94 with Chrono Trigger and Super Metroid, the Genesis was winning for most of the 16-bit era and before the SNES launched SEGA took away more than Half of Nintendo's market share.

I think most will agree that a price cut isnt coming this Holiday shopping season. Add that plus the Ps3's stellar Holiday Season line-up of games, i feel the PS3 might have a 2nd bad year :(

Sony knows that they hav3e been badly beaten and taught a MAJOR lesson. And believe it they will not go this route ever again with PS4. PS4 will be a super cheap system for consumers.

The recent sale of PS3 are ABYSMAL and you all KNOW IT!!!

And why yes the sales will pick up some with a price drop but not nearly enough the DAMAGE has been done. And most consumers have moved on and giving the 360 the nod as there hardcore game system of choice.

Even when PS3 has a price cut the 360 will follow suit and also even be able to go even further as to the 360 has been making about $75 bones per system for a very good while now. So evebn when Sony has a cost cut MS will be in a position to match it and even go a bit further for added sales to counter Sony.

Sony really only has it's hopes based on Blu-Ray now and are praying that that pays off because other wise the PS3 could go down as one of the if not biggest single company profit loosing peice of hardware in HISTORY.

These are just the clear facts guys no way around it it's the TRUTH!!!

I don't really care who wins this gen, i never did, all i care about is that Sony put a price drop on the PS3 and keep puting out good games, same for the xbox 360.

lets say everybody who owns 360 was a hardcore ps2 fan(just pretend for a second) that would mean sony lost 10 mill out of 120 mill userbase. Im sure they are crying at night :roll:

Wow....how suprising. Yet another wildly fanatical PS3 bashing thread left UNLOCKED that is full of nothing, but ridiculous, slanted, crystal ball, TROLL predictions regarding the PS3's and even the PS4's future, lol. Funny thing is that if someone made this against the 360, it would have been locked after the first post, and the creator would probably have been modded instantly.

Instead in this topic, we actually have a mod nearly backing up the topic creator, who is obviously a PS3 bashing troll. As should be evidenced by the numerous topics that he makes, that are all in the same trolling/PS3 bashing vein. I may be mistaken, but I thought deliberate trolling was a TOS violation, correct?

i'm not making a special exception for you just because you don't want to see the ps3 bashed.

Dont be a hypocrite Casey. We all know you mods rarely, maybe even never, bother to lock threads bashing the PS3 or Wii yet every time someone bashes the 360, you mods are immediatly locking the threads. Dont give us that kind of garbage, we know you mods are biased and never bother to get rid of the annoying fanboys who plague this forum like Gears360 and PS3_FTW.

Why do you feel the need to insult people? Is it because someone said something bad about your system on system wars? This is the 3rd PS3 user I have seen today insult other people on the boards just because something was said negative about PS3. Face it your system is in bad shape right now and if you can not handle it then system wars is not the place for you.

I hardly feel the PS3 is out of it. A price drop wouldn't hurt, though.musicalmac

Yup, it is still early.  IF it is selling like this after a price drop then Sony has problems.

It's nice to be thought of this deep in the thread ;)

But I must say, I'd not want to be the one making big decisions regarding the PS3...

ironcreed

The mod did no such thing. Did you even read what the mod typed?? The mod ASKED A QUESTION, how the hell is that backing someones claim up. Love those accusations at absolutely nothing. :shock:

 

Oh, I know....just a mere question that defended against a response that was in opposition to the TC's ridiculous, and blatantly obvious trolling.

Your assuming. How do you know the question wasnt for more clarification? I mean, thats why you ask question right? :shock:

 

Fair enough....it indeed could have been for clarification. It certainly appeared to be otherwise though in regards to the nature of the original statement that was proposed. Besides, I am entitled to my opinon, right?

You can be entitled to your opinions but your opinions mean **** when you start making baseless accusations.

[QUOTE="dhjohns"][QUOTE="CaseyWegner"][QUOTE="ironcreed"][QUOTE="CaseyWegner"]

still a statistic

ironcreed

Statistic based on what exactly?....Opinion, thats what. Therefore, it is not FACT.

there are rules to the system wars here just like there are rules to any game. one rule that was decided upon was that we use gamespot as the standard for scores.

 

I appreciate your earlier response, but I must second Casey here. If I met you in a coffee shop and we had this discussion, it is another story; however, in GS SW, only GS scores matter. So call it a fantasy land or whatever it is SW and we must play by the rules.

I am aware of the rules, that is why I stated that I was speaking for the real world for a MOMENT. Why be so ridgid, and dogmatic anyway? Isn't reality a better form of criteria to base a discussion on than what some "group" tells you is valid and what is not? Sounds like a communist government or a dictatorship to me, lol. This way, the "game" will always be in their favor because they dictate what is or is not valid on here, no matter how illogical or WRONG it may be in reality. But hey, rules are rules, aye?

Anyway, I dig this forum obviously, as that is why I am here. I try to abide by the rules, and do not attack people, but I am not going to always agree with GS just because they say that only what they say counts in here, lol. Sorry, but I have my own opinions. I am not a blind follower that takes their reviews as if they were the "Gospels according to Gamespot."

 

Again, point well taken; however, I follow the GS rules here for a reason. These forums get out of hand anyway and by using only GS scores here, it focusses the discussion somewhat. I do have different opinions about games than GS. I am not a "blind follower". I liked Crackdown more, I didn't like PDZ so much, I liked VF5 more, etc... The rule is here so people can't use whatever source fits their perception. Regardless of GS scores, I do feel the 360's first 6 months are better than PS3's first 6 months. I can't judge the next 6 until it happens and neither can anyone else.

I am not insulting anyone, why would I revert to childish immaturity? I am calling Casey and the other mods out on their decisions to lock certain threads as it seems they have quite the bias going on here. Every thread where someone bashes the 360 is locked within 5 posts after being reported, whereas threads like this which bash the PS3 were no doubt reported, have been left open and ignored. Sorry but trolling is trolling and the mods are being hypocrites here.

I really dont care what lemmings think of the PS3 or how well its selling, its a phenominal system that imo is worth every dime, and at least I am not going to get milked of my money for the next 5 years when I want to play online or get extra content for my games. Not to mention at least the PS3 doesnt break easily and cause massive hardware malfunctions that require you to shell out 300 dollars to fix.

If a thread breaks TOS we lock it. Simple as.

People who think there is some sort of bias to our moderations are suffering from the same syndrome as those people who think that their Ipods have preferences and aren't really playing songs randomly.

Lol funny. When cows run wild and amuck, where are you? Do you jump up to defend the sheep or the lems when cows attack? Im sure you do right? :roll: 360 and definately the poor Wii are bashed all the time, where are you? Your rinky dink of a system gets bashed and you have a fit, typical and why am I not surprised? Im so glad I returned that abomination of a system (PS3) BACK to gamestop for a full refund the day after christmas unopened.

As of yet, I still have not seen ONE, just ONE game Im interested in released on the PS3 or going to be released thats not coming out on the 360. Had I kept that anti christ of a system I would have been driven mad by now restocking all my blu ray movies so I can say "I dont have any games, but I have a $600 blu ray player!" And waiting, waiting and waiting for something to be released to play......... :shock:

You cant handle sw? Try the PS3 forums, they always have something positive to say their and guess what? No bashing!!!  :shock:

:cry: Do you need a tissue???

The original poster posted some very valid arguements.  Just because it goes against all your fanboys belief's on how well the PS3 is doing, the bottom line and the facts point out the the PS3 is doing horrible, with no short sight relief in sight.  Long term isn't looking all that promising either.

What even more disturbing, is obviously your one of these posters that hit the "report" button when it goes against your fanboy system.  In jail, they have a term for that.

cakeorrdeath

Mods are bias...I know you're Wii and 360 fan all the way. Don't act like it changed because you're a mod now. I'm not blind. Most mods I run into have no interests or like the PS3. They're either Nintendo, Xbox, or PC fans. That's bias. I'm not saying it's wrong or nothing, but please admit the obvious. I still never got an answer from Casey on this. Why was the "Sony's disappointing timeline" thread was bump consistently for 3 months, when the TOS says not to bump old threads? I just want an answer for that one.

you just want me to lock threads that are bashing your system(s) of choice and i'm not making special exceptions for you either. saying that 360 threads are the only ones that get locked really says a lot about you.

LOL...yet another perfect, and pathetic example of a FANBOY calling some else a fanboy, just because they happen to like the PS3. Newsflash, pal...I own a 360, and an Xbox as well. I just get tired of seeing the same people beat a dead horse everyday, with the same negative trolling posts, without ever weighing in on the positive aspects that the PS3 may offer as well in order to paint a more accurate picture.

In any objective, but NON BIAS assessment, you have to weigh the pros, with the cons, instead of PURPOSEFULLY focusing only on the negatives, over and over again, in order to try and obscure any positives. That is the work of a BIASED, trolling fanboy. Simple as that. I was just calling it as I saw it. Sorry you do not approve of my actually liking the PS3, in addition to the 360.

I will be the first to admit that the PS3 is having a rough time right now, man. But there are definitely some great games and features for it just over the horizon. At least I have an open, free mind, and can recognize, appreciate, and give credit where credit is due, instead of focusing all of my energies on being a hateful, pessimistic doomsday prophet against things that may not particularly appeal to me, but certainly do to others. That kind of action, and attitude reflects nothing but spitefull, mob rules mentality....like a pack wild chimps.;) 

Save those tissues for yourself.

(EDIT) Oh, and just for your info, I never reported, I just posted, bud. And speaking of jail terminology...I suppose you are referring to "ratting", lol. You must know from experience, aye?

If a thread breaks TOS we lock it. Simple as.

People who think there is some sort of bias to our moderations are suffering from the same syndrome as those people who think that their Ipods have preferences and aren't really playing songs randomly.

Mods are bias...I know you're Wii and 360 fan all the way. Don't act like it changed because you're a mod now. I'm not blind. Most mods I run into have no interests or like the PS3. They're either Nintendo, Xbox, or PC fans. That's bias. I'm not saying it's wrong or nothing, but please admit the obvious. I still never got an answer from Casey on this. Why was the "Sony's disappointing timeline" thread was bump consistently for 3 months, when the TOS says not to bump old threads? I just want an answer for that one.

there's a difference between keeping a thread alive over a long time and bumping an old thread.

It will not be a PS4. The loss their gaming div is taking wont be able to come up with the funds for r&d for a PS4. Unless of course the gaming div can start turning a profit by xmas?  :shock:Magical_Zebra

MS still isn't making a profit, they project Halo 3 will finally give'em a profitable quarter, seems to me Sony is still on it's way to lay claim to the dominant posistion in the console market, in the past MS has proven that unless they can buy the competition, they really suck at building and maintaining any kind of lasting succes.

The "IT ISN'T THE BEST, BUT IT'S GOOD ENOUGH FOR OUR CONSUMERS" mentality is gonna cost'em at a certain point(I just won't believe even MS consumers are that dumb).

Casey, you're using logic. This is system wars, logic has no place here!

 

Back to the thread....

 

Sony is having a lot harder time moving their systems than they expected. However, it is still an effective vehicle for Blu-ray. Of course, getting sued for Blu-ray itself  may change the whole nature of their strategy as they may not be able to make real money off of licensing rights.

Well this turned into a monkey **** fight real fast.  A mod planning on locking this any time soon, or are all of the mods a bunch of Jerry Springer fans?

Do I get extra points if I report this entire thread?

There game division itself is not set to turn a profit until Halo 3 even still far FAR YEARS sooner then Sony can ever expect to see any profit from PS3.

And also YES the 360 itself is making about $75.00 in the black for the 360 itself this has already been reported about 4 months ago. Again far FAR sooner YEARS sooner then Sony can expect this also.

Please, save the connotation of calling me a fanboy. Bumping a thread and keeping it alive is the same thing. Don't convince yourself that it isn't. If it was so important to be keeping it alive it would've been stickied;however, it wasnt. It would disappear for a couple of days and "bumped" with some silly comment not adding anything new to it.

why would i make a sticky dedicated to the bashing of a system? stickied threads are for informational purposes or the occasional voting game. i didn't care about the thread. i did not even read through the thread.

Look in my post and show me where I said M$ was making a profit. M$ MAY see profits turning around summer next year, PS3 has a long way to go.

I agree with you on that only one problem. The Wii will surpass both PS3 and 360. I dont see the PS3 surpassing the 360.....ever. Unless they bump it down $200 and actually get some games.

Question for all you XBOTS and Wii kiddies....When I buy a Wii, do I get HDMI 1.3, 720p games, some 1080p games, DVD upscaling, DVD playing capablity, Blu-ray, photos (jpg, png, gif, etc...), music (mp3, acc), video (mpeg, avi, wma), web, store, HOME on-line, 60GB HDD, Cell Processor/RSX SIXAXIS and soon Rumble....all for $250?????

Now, I'm sure that the motor industry sold more Toyota Corollas than they did Chevy Corvettes. But I'll take the Corvette, thank you very much.

 

 

Xbots really don't care about the Wii. They just use Wii numbers to stick it to Sony fanboys. Hey, Wii babies! You are being USED!

 The probelm with that is that M$ has to keep selling 4 MIL copies every quarter. Not going to happen. The 10 MIL hardcore Halo fans are the ones lapping up Halo 3.

I hardly feel the PS3 is out of it. A price drop wouldn't hurt, though.musicalmac
Bingo, six months is a little early to judge even though 2007 looks so bland. There are way more late adopters waiting for a price cut, rumble and more games than there are early adopters.

Do you have an actual argument in favor of the PS3, or are you just going to complain about it?
I read Ars Technica's gaming blog, and every time something anti-PS3 is posted, people complain about bias.  My question is, when people say bad things about the PS3, isn't it possible that they're just telling it like it is?

Very true. But are you saying that the PS3 will never have an AAA games? All it takes it one or two.  The system has been built. Now the games come next. Corvette + Track = Fun!
