They tried to take advantage of ME, their loyal consumer.

I look forward to buying a PS4 assuming they have learned their lesson. Thank you,

all fanboys allowed

Uh huh... And microsofts $100 20 GB harddrive, half assed hardware design, plug in and play charge kits, and $100 extra currency exchange to Canadians (Even on the core) isnt taking advantage?
What about Nintendos overpriced console? They are the ONLY ones making money per console.

By the way, how did Sony takeadvantage of YOU?

Easy cop out. Bashing another company and their product.

I was expressing why so many people have chosen to bypass the PS3 thus far. Something that many sony fanboys will not admit. I would be on here just like them trying to justify and defend my purchase if I had fallen for Sony's marketing. Then, on the inside, I would hurt every time a multiplat game is delayed or looks inferior when it isn't delayed.

you want ps3 to fail because you cant have it.....most likely because you cant get mommy and daddy to buy it for you....so you are hoping and convincing yourself that it fails to make yourself feel better about not owning it...

Thats the case for most fanboys...

Hmmm... I dont have to defend my purchase... People can attack it if they want, I choose to defend it because thisi s system wars. Doesnt hurt when a multiplatform game is delayed at all to me, I havent found all too much intrest in any thus far.

Of course it would look inferrior on a console which is much harder to program for (and also been out for less time).

By the way, it was also MS and N who took advantage of people both in the past, AND present. Of course a kid like you would not admit, justl et it hurt on the inside when ever brought up.

This is why I ignore all microtransactions.

This is why I only buy games - not the other stuff with Microsoft's name on it that is overcharged.

This is why I won't have a problem coming back to Sony for a PS4 once they get their act together.

I haven't found ANYTHING on the PS3 that I am interested in thus far. I used to be a loyal Sony customer - however, they have COMPLETELY dropped the ball this generation.

And please don't use that "it's harder to program for" excuse. Because it is an excuse, plain and simple.

ACTUALLY, what I'm saying is that I am not on Sony's side right now because they took advantage of you (assuming you own a PS3).

I understand that denial difficult to get past. OVERPROMISE. UNDERDELIVER. MORE EXPENSIVE. DELAYED. BAD PURCHASE.

Good for you. I payed $400 for mine. I bought it AFTER the PS3 came out and was able to make a wise decision. I play all multiplat games months early and if not, they are still slightly better. I have had many GREAT EXCLUSIVE games released andmany more goodones on top ofthat.

And you were saying?>

You dont know much about business do you.... every single company in the world "takes advantage" over you....and if you hate ps3 and sony because sony took advantage of you....you might as well hate the other 3 systems as well...because they all did it...

In fact Nintendo probably has taken the most advantage out of any of the companies so far....charging $250 for old old hardware and a new controller (they admitted to this), making us spend $10 on games that are 15 years old and they change aboslutely nothing about them at all, we still dont have online.....its a joke....

So i guess you should just hate all the systems..

So did you give up? YOU NOW AGREE WITH MY POST? because I am not talking about the Xbox 360.I don't need to own any console to make my initial claim.

i was saying, sony packs in all the stuff like bluray, wifi, a hard drive inside it, (and free online) with the ps3, you get a deal on all that content instead of overpricing and selling them sepretley. No where did i say one had better or worse games. The 360 was worse off than the ps3 content wise the first year, but its been out longer, so of course you have been playing great exclusives, if you arent playing any great exclusives on a system thats been out for 2 years there would be a serious problem...if you give the ps3 time, youll play great exclusives on that as well.

I'm thinking your reading comprehension skills are impaired. No where did I post that I hate Sony. I am simply choosing to be a smart consumer. Many people where not being smart consumers when they ran out and bought a PS3 based on 1) Sony's promises or 2) Their previous experiences with the PS1 and 2 - perhaps it was a combination of these two. This is why Cows get bashed so heavily on SW - because the PS3 has been seriously LACKING ever since its been released.

DUDe, even tho saying this thread fails makes me look dumb its true, dude atleast EXPLAIN why sony has failed you. Please dont say price becuase you can be 14 years old work and publix and get around 200 dollars per mopnth or more so dont use that as an excuse. Also why would you want a console to fail?? Becuase it doesent appeal you? It appeals millions of people in the world dont expect it to just appeal you man, not everytnes like you , stop thinking like a comme. Also It Sony consoles fail that would hurt the gaming industry too, mostly US the gamers. So grow up man their doing fine, just becuase some Bum cant afford one doesent meqan its bad..

I will spell it out for you and others. Sony made us wait for their product and built up a false hype saying that it was going to be leaps an bounds better than the competitor. When it finally realeased, it wasn't. It was more expensive and all multi-plat games play worse. It has been out over a year - practically all of its exclusives have flopped, it doesn't have any exclusive system selling games (AAA), all of it's multiplats are inferior or delayed,

1. Sony held back the PS3 from launching at the same time as the 360 so they could incorporate Blu-ray. Ultimately, they tried to convince everyone that it was necissary for video games. However, soon, we all realized that their alterior motive was to win the home movie format war. Then we all realized that the blu-ray drive speed is so slow, all the extra gigs are spent putting redundant data on the disc. Not to mention load times are longer in the "real next gen" machine?

2. The Cell. It was supposed to be amazing - yet it is currently the sole reason why all multiplat games look worse. I know you say, time, time, time, but really - it is becoming increasingly evident that Sony had alterior motives for its inclusion in the PS3 and that it is not a good processor for videogames.

3. RSX. If it was going to delay launch, why didn't it take the time to upgrade the GPU? It is so pathetic that the graphics are not noticeably better when it is more expensive AND came out later.

4. The games. If Sony is going to wait an extra year to launch its console - it needs to make sure that the games are THERE when it launches - that way the wait was justified. Why should sony get a pass for the next couple years saying "oh they came out later so of course there aren't as many good games"

So, assuming you actually have a PS3, or had one at some point in time, you are mad at Sony for making some bone-headed decision of YOUR OWN free will? I love it when users don't take the time to write well thought out posts...or they just like flame bait.

Maybe you should re-read the post. The key word is "tried," meaning they didn't succeed.

AS A RESPONSIBLE CONSUMER THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE

1. Blu-ray might have low load speed but its mass amount of space makes up for that, regardless of what space is used on the load speeds it still holds ALOT more memory than DVD and HD-DVD alone and remaisn to have the same load speeds also thats why we have memory caches.

2. The cell, though at first it was true, they are starting to get around that, Games liek Dirt, Obivion, GRAW 2, and so on prove that the PS3 version is superior (dont say becuase they had more time becuase they start each console project separeately) also Devs are staring to understand the cell more everytday if you need more understanbding read this dude. http://www.blachford.info/computer/Cell/Cell1_v2.html

3. The RSX can actually cope with the cell making the GPU better and the ram.

4. MAybe for you it wasent enough and dont say "oh the 360 has better games and were better recieved" Maybe you never thought about it but that was the first time a console was released with suposebly next gen graphics (current gen) so games looks superb while when PS3 was launched the games dident seem so diffrent then what they saw an year b4.

Also dident you ever think about it, Why did Microsoft release a console KNOWING that it had a defect rate, let alone having a 33% defect rate. So please dude be quiet, at the end of the day its all about opinion, but yours makes no sense.
