I wasn't here last gen but as someone already said, the PS3 is a vastly bigger threat than the Gamecube ever was. And it was the second generation in a row where Ninty had failed so perhaps bashing them had become stale, just a thought. In comparison, this is the first gen where a PS console has "lost".

Wasn't the Gamecube bashed? Anyway, that was last gen. :PJandurin
I remember people bashed the GameCube for not playing DVD movies. Now people bash the PS3 because it DOES play Blu-ray movies and this drove up the cost :P

So why wasn't the Gamecube bashed to hell and back like the PS3 is this generation?

I want to hear some good reasons.

Wasdie

Some reasons why the PS3 is bash to hell and back this gen:

1. The promises and ridiculous claims that were not met

2. The arrogance of the people making the PS3.

3. Sony fanboys

4. Sony fanboys

5. Sony fanboys

6. Sony fanboys

7. Sony fanboys

8. The price

9. Sony fanboys

10. Super rub a dub

All I know is that the GC is much better than the Wii. It had better games, real games, a better contoroller, and better 3rd party games. Shame it didnt sell more

The Wii is terrible compared to the past 3 Nintendo systems(SNES, 64, GC). Just utterly terrible.

the gamecube wasn't hated last gen because it hardly ever did anything wrong to us. We got two zelda games, mario sunshine, two metroid games, and new series like pikmin, how could you complain back then? I mean, you probly didn't spend that much for it anyway.

So I think that the PS3 is hated because it's so darn expensive, great games for it are being shot at ( Gran Tourismo 5... Prolouge??? AND Killzone 2's release date was up in the air for, well who knows how long!) Also, the PS3's online is three floors away from Microsoft's Live " sky deck" in the hotel of online fun. Wow, best example ever.

To tell you the truth, I'd rather play a Gamecube than a PS3 anyday. But I do have appreciation to the console, it's just a little... mehh.
